Comment:

He's an amazing professor. He teaches well and everything. You can get TONS of extra credit just by participating and answering questions, reading ahead etc. The only problem with him is that he is EXTREMELY RUDE. Please don't underestimate that statement. He is the absolute worst. The continuous belittling is almost UNBEARABLE.

Comment:

Not a bad guy! But he's extremely rude. Will call you stupid and other names. Very unprofessional for a professor. Does NOT give examples in class and inaccessible after class. Even when you do meet with him; he rushes you. Dropped the class! Will NOT take again!

Comment:

Organic Chemistry is a hard course and requires time and hard work if you are expected to understand the material during the exam. For this professor, he barely does any examples and expects us to know the topics. Moreover, he expects us to answer his obscenely vague questions in class, The worst part is he grades the exam and final in front of you

Comment:

Orgo chem is a hard class. He does not simply give you how things are; instead he explains why things are and that makes learning easier and more interesting. You can see he is passionate about the science and his best interest is you learning but you have to make an effort to learn too.

Comment:

Great professor for ant student willing to actually put in the effort. He gives points for class participation, and takes time to explain the material. But if you don't ask questions, he will continue thinking you understand. He isn't mean, just a stern professor, and his sterness comes from a good place.

Comment:

If you can RUN AWAY to the other side of the universe from this dude. Yells at your mistakes and also get pissed when nobody answers the question. If you're a professor you should have patience. This dude, on the other hand has no patience. He barely covers the topics in orgo. He also barely gives any examples in class and all he does is talk!

Comment:

He's a great professor. He's tough and harsh because he cares he's not an evil person. He explains everything in depth and really just wants his students to learn, but no one does their part. Take him if you work hard and you will love it. Great class and he offers extra credit for participating!

Comment:

He teaches on a much higher level than other professors. You will love this professor if you're a diligent student and aren't afraid to ask questions. You will love him even more if you get into pharmacy or med school as it will be much easier for you. If you are uncomfortable with asking questions or studying, then he's not for you.

Comment:

If you see him on your schedule RUN. Drop him automatically. He is a terrible professor and deserves to be fired. He is rude, impatient, and is NOT fit to be a professor. He will not think twice before insulting you if you don't understand something. DO NOT TAKE HIM. UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES.

Comment:

hard professor but rightfully so. half the people in our class dropped out but that is because half of them didn't know what they were talking about. grades tests in front of you which beats waiting 2 weeks for results. challenging but worth it, i learned a lot and recommend him for who wants to go to Pharmacy school and actually be good at it.

Comment:

I had this professor for organic several years back and I can't believe he is still teaching. Most of the feedback is correct he is hard, rude, & will try to ruin your chances to get into a program like RX. DO NOT Take Him At All! If you plan to apply to LIU RX & others schools this teacher will ruin your chances. DO NOT Take Him!!

Comment:

OMG. I heard he was hard, but I thought maybe it was because people don't study as much as they should for organic chem. He is the devil. He is rude, mean, and encouraging. He calls his students stupid, idiot & other names. He grades the test in front of your face and then yells at you. His test are hand written & unclear.
