Love his teaching style and makes an incredibly difficult course a little easier. That final was rough though.

I really love the way class is formated, and the fact that you have the previously recorded lectures on your canvas it helps fill in the gaps in my knowledge Having this option allows me to go back after attending the lecture and answering some of the questions I previously had. I think this is something Anyika should implement into her class.

Professor Lewis wasn't horrible but wasn't the best either. He likes to gatekeep his material, doesn't post ANY notes from lecture or any exams taken during the course (only answers). He is very laid back. But I will say that his exams are easier and are very similar to his worksheets. Overall I think he is an okay ochem professor.

Dr. Lewis is a clear, organized lecturer who could probably teach this whole series in his sleep. Tests are difficult but reasonable, and there are lots of resources to help you succeed. My only significant complaint is his seating charts, which take the anonymity out of grades and make most students feel really insecure.

109B . Lewis R B 1 Year, 6 Days Ago

This course was the hardest one I've ever taken in my life. So much work outside of class, with minimal return. So many mechanisms to not only know, but implement in all sorts of different other reactions. Lewis did the best he could do teach the material and respond on Canvas discussion boards, but this class is just so absurdly difficult.
