Dr. Price really knows his stuff. His ability to explain complex concepts in simple words is a gift. As long as you do everything he tells you, you can get an A. It's all hard work and patience. There is no such thing as luck. You can do it!
He's an amazing lecturer who is always clear and coherent. He's super good-looking for a professor so in lecture, I mostly just think of all the things I'd do to him outta class. STUDY HARD if you're not good at chemistry.
Price was adorable. He was approachable and had a great sense of humor. Of course, Price was also an excellent professor. He presented the material simply, and he often did demonstrations in class. His blackboards were ridiculously clear. Prices exams accurately tested for understanding, so if you learn the material and study, you'll do just fine.
A professor who wants all his students to succeed. His lectures are extremely clear and informative in the most concise way. Most of the questions that arose in my head as he was teaching the material were successively clarified moments after he finishes addressing the concept. He knows the questions and points of confusions students might have.
best professor I have had at UCSB. He is very clear in his lectures and tries to engage students. Highly recommend taking him for the CHEM 1 series. I had him for all three, but did the best in 1C. Tests can be tricky! So, go to office hours, review sessions, and do recommend book problems and practice exams and you should be fine
Great lectures. I think he really tries to organize his lectures in a way to help every type of learner. Very cool person. Great professor.

He posts recommended book problems from the 7th and 6th edition. I repeat : HE POSTS BOOK PROBLEMS FROM THE 6TH EDITION!!! SAVE YOURSELF SOME MONEY AND BUY THE SECOND TO NEWEST BOOK EDITION AND YOU WILL DO JUST AS WELL IN THE CLASS! Great professor, explains concepts in a way you understand. Best professor in chem, take him if you can.
Professor Price is a beautiful life saver. Very passionate teacher and very knowledgable. Go to office hours, he's super helpful and approachable (its when you see his enthusiasm for chemistry the most). Best professor I've had at UCSB!
What an amazing man and teacher. I flunked out of 1A the first time I took it and got a C the second time, so it is safe to say chemistry is not my best subject. However, Price makes the information easy to understand, I actually wanted to go to lecture! Very welcoming and helpful. You MUST take him for Chem 1B.
Dr. Price is a great great great professor. He genuinely wants to see you succeed and is probably the most approachable professor I've ever met. He makes his lectures interesting by sometimes doing cool experiments during class. Definitely take this professor you will learn to love the material.
Price is the best chem professor out of them all. You can tell he is passionate about teaching & chemistry. He is always professional, clear, concise, & sometimes really funny. I have a hard time with chem but he really helped me understand the material. He's super nice & approachable. I wish I could have had him every quarter for gen chem!
The fact that Price isn't teaching Chem1C next quarter makes me so sad. He's a really good lecturer and he's very passionate about chemistry. He takes his time in lecture to make sure everyone understands the material and he always has office hours.
really good at getting concepts across and walking through calculations. funny and made lecture interesting. lots of demos too. by far my favorite chem professor so far.
He might be the best and most handsome professor in UCSB. He always seems confident in class and can provide you with clear demonstration of the stuff he is teaching. You will definitely love his class. Also, it is very easy to get a high grade in his class.
I would recommend him to everyone who is planning to take Chem course
Best gen chem prof there is at UCSB! Go to office hours, he's helpful and easy to talk to. I was lucky enough to have him for 1B AND 1C even though he has only done it once before.
Absolute best teacher at UCSB. Prof. Price's lectures are clear, and although his tests are tough they're manageable if you study. He holds study sessions on weekends and truly cares about the success of his students. Oh and he's obviously super hot.
Price is a great guy. Extremely helpful and accommodating, as well as fun in lecture. Let me put it this way: he's the type of professor who is good enough at his job that you seriously consider switching majors. However, his tests are no joke. They are challenging, but also curved generously according to class averages.
Price amazing teacher. Not only is he more than happy to answer questions, but he takes time out of his weekend to hold review sessions to prepare his students for exams. He is a very clear lecturer and lays forth what you will be expected to know for tests. Since this class is math based, if you're good at problem solving, exams are no problem.
Best professor I have ever had and HOT but even if he wasn't hot he'd still be the best. So entertaining during lecture - does a lot of demos and has cute scripted jokes. So helpful and just great in every way I cannot think of a way that he could have made his class better. Tests are tough but he prepares you for them so it's fair!
Really cares about students, loves to mix humor into his lectures to keep students engaged. Good guy and good professor
He is really funny in class, I would definitely take his class again. GO TO HIS OFFICE HOURS. He is willing to explain as much as you want. Also, just loves talking to students in general,and he is really approachable. What he teaches in lecture is pretty much exactly what he puts on the tests.
Good guy and good professor, he is a really nice person and probably the nicest Ucsb professor that exists, however his exams are beyond impossibly difficult and most of the time he lectures at too fast of pace which confuses the class overall amazing professor he just needs to slow down the speed of his lectures A+++
Beautiful man & amazing teacher. Best chemistry teacher by far.
