I had Brooks for my FSEM then GEO. He is the sweetest! He definitely will help you out if you need it. He is highly passionate in what he does and knows his stuff! I would recommend him no doubt.

Brooks is the sweetest guy. I was not interested in Geo before the class but he was so helpful and accessible that I have fond memories of it. Lots of extra cred opportunities. He loves what he does so much that it is fun to be around him. Also has a great dog.

Brooks knows his stuff. He makes GEO as interesting as possible. I'm not great at the sciences but his class came easily. Definitely thumbs up

Comment:

This abroad class that he taught was VERY disorganized, and he would be very unclear about his expectations as well as ways to improve his mandatory notetaking on field observations. Hopefully he never gets another chance to do this program.

offers plenty of extra credit to get your grade up if you need it. notes are exactly what will be on the test. if you do the "practice problems" he assigns for the test you already know 90% of the test questions. great guy!
