PHYS103 . Bibilashvili 8 Years Ago

Dr. B is the best physics professor Ive had at SB. Takes the times to make sure students understand the subject matter. Exams are reasonable, homework is not too difficult, end-of-term curve is very generous. Has the ability to explain abstract concepts in a simple and easy to understand manner. Wish I could have him for every physics class.

Great lectures and works well with TA to make sure sections are helpful also. Office hours are more than worth the student's while. Very friendly, very straightforward, very good teacher overall. His homework prepares you for his exams, both were challenging but manageable.

Very funny and energetic man. He covers a lot of material in a short amount of time, but it is still understandable.

I love that he wants people to ask questions no matter how "stupid" you think the question may be. He just wants students to engage and enjoy how awesome math and physics are which I think makes his lectures very fun. He creates a very comfortable learning environment.

He is the goat. I had him for a few other classes (PHYS8, INT86VW), and he always ensured he knew what he was talking about, unlike other professors. He can always provide a good answer to your question, and he encourages you to ask questions. He also gives good academic advice and will help you steer in the right direction.

he loves calling satisfying equations “cute”
