Comment:

I took this class as my science credit for my transfer. There is a HUGE difference between the way he teaches at Gateway and the classes at SCSU. For instance he would only skim through subject matters that make no sense in class. Luckily he tapes his classes as SCSU and they were MORE helpful than his in-class lectures.

Comment:

Tremblay is one of the BEST professors at Southern. He's one of those gems that tries very hard to make learning fun, and he succeeds. Tends to go off on tangents, but the stories are always entertaining. I learned a ton from him. As long as you attend class and try your best, you WILL pass. He gives out tons of extra credit as well, so that helps.

Comment:

I took physics in highschool and it definitely wasn't one of my favorite classes. Coming into this class I expected the same. Professor Tremblay makes Physics so interesting, and surprisingly SO easy. He's funny and an all-around great teacher. I would definitely recommend him. Plus this is the only physics class without a lab (TAKE IT!)

I just completed the class over summer and it was the best decision that I have ever made.The teacher is simply awesome,knows his material and creates a very motivated and friendly atmosphere.With this sense of humor and jokes coming to class during summer was something I enjoyed doing,even though Physics never interested much.

Comment:

He is nice, but I don't think the class is as easy as ppl say. However, if you can remember all the formula he gives then you should be fine. 3 test, and 20 easy extra credit pts. Attendance not important, but best you go or u will be lost. Doesnt have many office hours. but he is ok

Comment:

I always hated sciences. When I heard it didn't have a lab, I took it. Turns out it's the best thing I could have done!! He is an awesome professor and really wants to involve his students and motivates you to learn the material. His tests can be hard but he gives you extra credit opportunities.I've suggested him to 3 of my friends & all loved him!

This professor definitely gives you your moneys worth!! In fact it's the first one who really has. He is extremely intelligent and interesting and has a heart of gold that is very obvious. Take him for sure, you won't regret learning so much. Each session was worth getting up and going to school for. Go Physics!! Who would've thought!!

Comment:

This professor gives out roughly 45pts of extra credit, now if he actually took the time out to teach instead of wasting the class period chatting, then maybe 1/2 of his class wouldn't fail each exam. He spends more time putting his lectures online when he could simply teach in the classroom. Its hard to teach yourself physics
