Comment:

He definitely explains the material in class, he has outlines and study guides online. Yes, it can be a bit boring but just pay attention and do the study guides and you'll receive the grade you want. I'd recommend him!

Terrible teacher. Boring. Rude and condescending. Disrespectful to students. He thinks we are all idiots.

Comment:

It's not completely necessary to attend class, since what he goes over is exactly the lecture outlines provided, but it is good to go. He does say things that aren't on the outlines that help and he does clarify a lot of topics. Overall, it was a good class though.

Comment:

Easy class, he posts easy to understand study guides for every section on Laulima. You don't really need the textbook, but it does help. Class attendance is not mandatory, but it can be helpful to go and take notes. Although just about everything needed for the tests was on the online study guide. Simple multiple choice questions on all the exams.

nice teacher but rather boring. to pass, read the pages in the book that he assigns and his lecture notes that he puts on laulima. seems to know what he's talking about and is rather interested in the topics that he's teaching. go to class.

Comment:

he's really nice, but his lectures are boring. i'm never excited to go to class, but its a good idea to go because everything on the tests are in his lectures. i'd still recommend him though because the class is REALLY easy, you just have to read the book! read the book, study, and an A is easy. if you have questions he's super friendly! nice guy!

Comment:

Disorganized lectures, lazy attitude, disinterest and lack of passion for both subject and teaching, condescending, inflexible, major ego/power trip. Reminiscent of high school or below. Killed my enthusiasm for ecology. Worst class at UHH so far. Will not recommend to anyone.

Comment:

He talks things without following textbook, jumps over various topics at random. doesnt take attendance(just few times),Exams is easy,everythings from textbook. no assignment. So you really dont need to go class. but, if you majoring science, his lecture has lots of fun. he is old but nice and still very smart.

Comment:

Anybody who says this class is hard must be reeeally dumb or skip class all the time! I didn't buy the book ($150), went to class everyday, took notes, studied lightly, and getting an A is a piece of cake! His lectures are clear and entertaining. If you have a sense of humor at all, you'll enjoy his classes.

what kind of professor doesnt believe in an "A"? well, he does and he thinks eveyrone should be getting a C. he is boring. has no idea what hes doing with the slide machine, basically too old to still be teaching. however! he is a nice old man.

Comment:

his lecture classes were SOO boring...dreaded it and had a hard time staying awake! but he is definitely a nice guy, although his tests are kinda hard. He doesnt like giving too many A's and B's...he thinks most people should get C's. But his lab on the other hand is really easy
