CHEM1A . Buratto W R 19 Years Ago

He is a nice guy, but I think that his teaching method did not invoke much interest as needed for a chem class.

GENCHEM1A . Buratto W R 19 Years Ago

What a great teacher! Clear, loud voice. Clear, concise lectures. You need to work for your grade, but his lectures are easy to understand. Midterms and finals are fairly challenging as with any other chem class. also has a curve.

The midterms weren't too bad. The final was pretty hard. He's a good teacher over all. Sometimes in lecture, he says things you don't need to know like deriving formulas

Mr. Burratto is a really cool professor. He writes really big and does problems step by step, so he is pretty clear. The tests aren't bad, you can just read the book and get good grades.
