Amazing lecturer, and helpful professor. He's also funny and offers lots of helpful review sessions, so if you put in the time, you will do well in his class, and even more, you will learn. He's a stellar professor, and if you ever have a chance at taking his class, you won't regret it.

He is everything I could ever ask out of a professor. If he could be my father or grandfather I would be honored. This man knows how to teach and is just brilliant

Gruebele is by far the best professor I've had. His lectures are very clear, organized, and engaging. I worked hard for that B, but the grades are fair and the exams are curved. Plus, Gruebele is just an all-around incredible person, so definitely worth coming to class for.

Professor Gruebele is the BEST professor you'll ever have. He is amazing in teaching and life. His writing on board is an art, really clear about things. Most importantly, he gave me great influence in life! Everyone in my class LOVE him :)

Gruebele is a great prof! His sense of humor and love of explosive demos make lecture fun. Go to his office hours sometimes if you can. He's a really interesting person (knows 4 languages, does ironman triathlons, basically wins at life). The only negative I have is that his writing and pictures on the board are cramped, so sit near the front!

He puts TA notes online, so if you can't make a lecture (or don't want to go) you can use those to get by. I found him to be a great lecturer and so I went most of the time. He tends to have pretty cool demo's where things light on fire. The tests aren't the easiest though (they're challenging, but not impossible).

Very nice professor, very willing to help. Great sense of humor and a cool accent. The class material is no joke, but not insurmountable. If you're taking this class, you should already know what you're getting yourself into. Gruebele is awesome!

Excellent professor, extremely fun. His accent is light enough to make him adorable but not incomprehensible. Also, EXPLOSIONS.

Amazing professor. He makes you want to go to lecture everyday, and makes learning the material easy. Always writes his notes on the board and has lecture notes online. His demos are always sure to be the high point of your day. Wish I could have him again!

Gruebele is awesome! Lectures are not necessary if you have a good TA and a basic knowledge, but I always went because of the awesome demos and Gruebeles sense of humor. Not the easiest class ever but there is a nice curve.

One of the better Chemistry professors you're going to have. I love this guy as his attitude towards blowing stuff up with explosive gases was nothing short of awesome.
