He has such great lecture videos and I really appreciate how colorful notes are so it makes everything very clear and easy to find. Each video is it's own topic and very well organized. If you do the practice problems and watch the lecture for the problems where he solves them, if you don't make silly mistakes on the quiz (which I do lol) it's easy

His quizzes were way harder than any problems he did in the lecture, and you have to take them the same day you learn it. Also, each quiz only has about 4-5 points, so you cant really make mistakes and still get a good grade as quizzes are 76% of the total grade. Got an A in Geller's 6A and might not even pass this quarter, much harder in my opn.

My main issue is that majority of the grade is the quizzes and theres just too many of them. Twice a week, barely get to get through lectures and have to get quickly tested on it. quizzes are very tricky imo. If quizzes were once a week, I could have a chance to better prepare

The course structure is questionable. There are no midterms or major exams, 76% of your grade depends on 20 quizzes which you take immediately after each lecture with little time for practice/understanding. These quizzes are also sporadic, which discourages reviewing for previous questions you missed as you are constantly focused on the next quiz.

Super well organized online course for physics 6B. Love how his quizzes are very similar to practice problems, have adequate time allowed, and aren't written with the intention of the average being a C.

I failed Physics 6A my first time round due to a really bad midterm, but Freund is a extremely good physics professor and his class is pretty easy if you know what your doing. His practice exams are very similar to the ones found on exams. He always keeps you engaged in lecture and is very helpful!

Even the tutor that I hired for Freund's classes doesnt understand his practice tests and exam questions. They are worded so weirdly and are quite unnecessarily complicated, he just doesnt make any sense. Hes very scatterbrained and is NOT efficient with lecture time. I only got an A because the curve was ridiculously big.

Great professor, understanding. Physics is hard, but study the practice midterms, make sure you know how to do those problems inside and out and you'll be set for the tests.

He's a good lecturer. I had other physics professors and he explained things the most clearly and concisely. He also makes adorable little jokes in class too.

If you've never taken physics before, take another professor. I failed both midterms but he gave a generous curve. Do the practice tests and make sure you know it and any possible twists. Stay on top of the work. He introduced concepts in the last 5 min of class and not enough time on tests. Clear explanations and enthusiasm, though.

Freund is honestly a terrible teacher for someone who has never taken a physics class before. The midterms are usually similar to the practice ones, but also can be really unfair- he once introduced a new concept in the last 3 minutes of lecture and then put two types of those problems on the test. Only got an A because of the coronavirus curve

Funny guy. No homework for 6A, all tests and a little participation. Doesn't always give clearest explanations. Tests were reasonable and like practice tests. Some questions are very unique and difficult, but very rare. Overall good professor, but: not the easiest and the lecturers are not always clear/informative.

Lectures are sporadic, unorganized, and he treats physics as if it were intuitive to the entire room. If youve never taken physics before DONT TAKE HIM

Professor Ernest Freund is great! He explains thoroughly and understandably. He is hilarious and we always laugh during classes. The homework on Sapling is optional and unrelated to test questions. For 2 midterms and 1 final, he gives thorough explanations of every kinds of problems that will be included in exams. And test questions are not tough.

Love professor Freund!! I refused to take the physics 6 series with any other professor. He is so clear about what he wants you to know and the practice midterms that he provides are SO helpful for his tests. His classes are early, but are always entertaining so I don't mind that I have to go. I-clicker 4% of your grade, 2MT & final

He was a solid teacher. He's focused but keeps you entertained with the way he talks at the same time. The tests were very similar to the practice tests, just make sure you understand the scenarios (not only the specific aspects asked on the practice test as he does change it). He's not interested in babying anyone but practice and you'll be fine.

For an early morning class, Freund made me enjoy physics, and I had no exposure to physics before college. He's entertaining, his practice tests are similar to the actual exams, and there's no Sapling! His demos are really intuitive, albeit somewhat tangential, and his lectures are sufficient enough to do well on tests. Best prof of the 6 series.

He's the best!!!! Very easy teacher, makes the concepts intuitive

Really cares about his students, lectures have iclicker and homework on masteringphysics sucks but the whole department uses it. Really accessible outside class, make use of office hours and you will easily get an A even with no experience in physics.

The Mastering Physics homework is pretty useless and the midterms can be pretty tough but the final is much easier and the curve is generous. I will say he makes his lectures very interesting but you still need to spend some time outside of class studying yourself in order to understand everything.

Interesting lecturer, class will be pretty easy if you have taken physics before. The curve also bumped my grade up to an A.

If you have taken AP physics in high school, good for you, phys 1 is an easy A for you. But if you don't really know about physics, you better study hard. The class is so unfair since only 9% gets and A and one letter bump (ex: A- to A) depends on 1/3 of standard deviation from the mean. This is a tough class and he goes by the concepts so quickly.

The exam is not difficult, but he is not a good lecturer. I cannot learn anything from his class. But he is good at arousing students' attention. He is not a good professor for students who did not take physics class since you need to spend a lot of time learning physics after the class.

Homework is on mastering physics and not hard to finish. Very interesting person but failed to teach clearly. Bad at summary and cannot bring your own cheat sheet to the exams (and the cheat sheet he provided is lack of some formulas) No practice exam. Hard to predict the questions. You will save a lot of time for other class by not taking this.
