Freund is a very good professor, there's demos each class, everything he mention is important and so it is crucial to learn how to take notes in his class. The assignments are hard but he only assigns a few for each modules. He would mumbles sometimes but it is not a big problem as he tries to cover all the materials

I did not like his lectures at all. He is all over the place and made it hard to learn. I would recommend watching his videos instead as they are much easier to gain an understanding from. I absolutely would not take him again if there was a better option.

Freund is great! his exams are VERY fair, you won't see a problem you haven't seen before on exams. lectures are meh, he jumps around a lot. u can def get an A w/out lecture & just watching his videos instead. u WILL have to study LOTS for this class if physics isn't your thing, but if u put in the work Freund won't make it hard for u to do well

Absolutely loved Freund. Lectures are engaging with demonstrations at the end of each class. Your grade is almost completely based on midterms, but if you do all of the practice problems, you will be good. Make sure to go to the last class of 6C.

I hate physics but I actually love going to his lectures because he is super engaging and I find his dry sense of humor hilarious. The practice tests and quizzes are exactly like his exams which is super helpful because you always know what to expect. He also posts lecture videos + videos going over different practice problems online.

tests r exactly like practice exams he gives hella practice problems lecture is kinda messy but he has videos and theyre so helpful, he's kinda the goat love u Freund

genuinely one of my favorite professors of all time. his teaching is straightforward and he is extremely helpful and accessible outside of class. he also lets you know exactly what to expect on tests and quizzes, so as long as you do the practice tests he provides you'll pass the class. I hope this man gets everything he wants in life

I am fascinated with the class Freund given

Reallllly good professor ever!!!

One of favorite profs here at UCSB. Tests are JUST like the practice tests and module practice. Do all module practice. Freund is a super fair professor and is super helpful outside of class also. He is very funny and makes lectures entertaining and enjoyable, he is the best.

Fun guy and good if you know how to approach the class. Don't get lazy so do all the quizzes, achieve, and MODULE PRACTICE problems for each module. Tests/quizzes are identical to those MODULE PRACTICE problems so do them as much as possible. Got to office hours to get help on MODULE PRACTICE problems you don't get. Read the tests carefully!!!

Practice tests are identical to the actual tests. He has videos online about the topics and even the lectures are entertaining. Makes a ton of jokes and I enjoyed going to class. A lot of homework. Physics is my weakest spot, but he helped me understand concepts better.

Funny guy and inspiring to students that as long as you show up and do the work given you'll be fine. Do his practice tests and there's no surprises on exams

I have always had trouble with physics, but Freund made it easier to grasp which was enough for me to pass. literally do all the recommended problems and the practice exams, and you'll do fine because his midterms/final are literally the same. I caught on too late plus I just suck at physics in general, which is why I barely passed, but it's doable

I think that he is very fun and entertaining with his lectures but it can be a bit hard to grasp the concepts. At least he posts lecture videos so you can stay on top of everything. Make sure to do all his practice problems as he copies them exactly on his tests. Main downside is that tests make up 84% of your grade so be careful with them.

I enjoyed his lecture humor and demos a lot. Most of his teaching is completing examples in class. Your overall grade will be determined mainly by tests, and his practice problems are very similar to quizzes and exams, so do them. I wish there were solutions to the practice problems, but repeating all practice problems multiple times helped.

Freund is one of the most caring professors I've had. I ended up having to retake 6A and he was with me every step of the way. He was helpful, kind, and made himself accessible for whatever the students needed. His lectures are a little scattered, but I highly recommend him for the physics series! Such a sweet man and a good professors overall.

great professor. his lectures are a little disorganized, but his personality makes time fly! I thoroughly enjoyed his class and his exams are carbon copies of his practice exams!

Great guy. Made physics better than I thought it would be. Do your quizzes and practice problems and you are set.

honestly really funny and amazing teacher

He's very funny and great to ask for help from :) Apart from Phys 6A, all the Phys 6B & 6C notes and lectures are posted online, allowing you to learn at your own pace. I found it easier to watch these 5-20 min videos than to attend lecture, since he goes on tangents and does too many examples. As long as you grind practice exams, you'll do great!

Take the PHYS6 series with Freund! He makes it very clear that in order to do well you need to understand his quizzes and practice exams; if you do these problems repeatedly with a general understanding, you are literally guaranteed at least B+. He's really nice and cares about his students as well. Definitely take over Geller!

He's a funny guy and really cares about his students. Don't be afraid to approach him. Office hours rlly helped me understand the topics and took my grade from a B in 6A to an A in 6B. Lectures are hard to follow sometimes but he has to simplify tough concepts so it's understandable. Overall great prof! Have to put in some effort for an A though.

Very enjoyable experience, one of my favorite professors at UCSB. Funny lectures, sometimes goes on tangents and falls behind, but doesn't put it at the expense of students. You're tested on what he tells you in lecture. Nothing else. Homework is nothing like exams, practice exams are carbon-copies of the tests. Go to office hours if you're stuck!
