Introduction to Teaching in Chemistry . CHEM 183
Students will assist the teaching assistant in teaching a lab course in which the student previously received a grade of A- or better. Activities will be determined in consultation with the instructor and include instruction of 1 or 2 lab sections per week. Undergraduates enrolled in Chem 183 are learning assistants (LAs) in the general chemistry laboratory. LAs teach and mentor first-year university students. LAs assist students with experiments, lab technique, data analysis, calculations, learning chemistry concepts, and problem solving. As the LAs learn STEM education pedagogy, they can practice what they learn as LAs in the chemistry lab.

I took his class maybe 9 years ago. I don't remember much but a lot of PDEs. And I remember that he was extremely passionate and on a good day he was AMPED to be up there lecturing for us. Good guy.
Easy class that he makes hard but the curve is fat like really fat so it evens out
He is an amazing lecturer, but his tests are super difficult. However, he is a very kind and compassionate professor who is understanding of extenuating circumstances. He actually cares about his students.
He is a good professor as in he knows what he is teaching and can provide amazing real life examples of what he is teaching but the examples he covers in class are so much easier than the homework problems or the exams. Two midterms, one final and the questions on these exams were the same difficulty as the homework problems or even harder.
