CHEM112A . 5 Months Ago

He is very helpful, perhaps too helpful. He really spend a lot of time to explain stuffs that people don't really understand, but that makes the class a bit too slow. However, I guess pchem for biochem students isn't really a tough course, so he's probably a fairly reasonable professor.

Professor Sepunaru has to be one of the best professors I've had so far. His lectures are engaging and really makes you think about the real life implications of the stuff you learn. He is extremely encouraging and is there to help you succeed. Go to office hours and don't be afraid to ask questions.

Three words: For The Students. Dr. Sepunaru is my favorite professor at UCSB and for good reason, his lectures are interactive and make you think about real biological applications of the course content. As a biochemistry major in the MCDB department, I'm sad that I can't take more classes with him at the helm. Take this class with him if you can!

Lior is one of the best professors I've had so far as a junior at UCSB. He takes his time in lecture to make sure everyone understands. His office hours are very interesting and helpful as well. I would totally recommend having him as a professor.
