CollegeWas made to teach. ORGANIZED,clear,receptive, cares for us to succeed. No doubt he knows what he's talking abt.His passion 4 teaching def makes a dif. my 2nd quarter REtaking Chem 1A (one of most difficult classes I've taken),but w/ great prof, ur able to earn the grade u work for.Explains IN DEPTH,but w/ simple terms. teaches material to a dif lvl
I love him so much. You could skip every lecture because the videos he posts are incredibly comprehensive. He's funny. He utilizes every minute of class. He wants you to succeed. I highly, highly recommend. Make sure you do the practice exams, they mirror the irl tests comprehensively.
he explains concepts very clearly, and while the class is hard, it's doable
He really and truly is the goat of the ucsb gen chem series. Notoriously tough course, but Price's lectures are so well constructed for easy comprehension and if you use the study resources he gives, there is really no reason why you shouldn't be able to pass. You don't even need to use them all, he's got something for everyone.
Best instructor at UCSB. Price is understanding, knowledgable, and a great teacher. He goes fast in lecture, so always go over the material outside of class. Three exams and ALEKS chapters due every week. Plenty resources and practice exams on Canvas. Very straightforward in expectations for the course. It was an honor to take Price, he's amazing!
I was able to learn chemistry thoroughly taking Price, hes so smart and nice, daddy of chemistry ❤️
