Okay so he's not the clearest speaking person you'll ever hear, but if you actually pay attention and listen, he's pretty damn funny. His lectures were very straightforward and he made a hard subject simple. Tests were straight from lecture. I went to ask him a question and got a 15 minute story about his life. Awesome guy!
he puts up 9 million overheads and mumbles through them at light speed.
he is very old and he can't teach at all. but he makes up for it by giving extremely easy tests. you may not learn a lot from him but its easy to get an A in his class. i'd recomend taking VanKopen if you get the chance, shes the best professor in this fie
Wow, very old, couldn't understand a word all quarter, should not be allowed to teach, but tests weren't that bad.
mumble mumble...what the hell is he saying?
i could not for the love of god understand him speech!!!
he's a dick
ALTHOUGH I PASSED HIS CLASS I THOUGHT HE WAS A BAD TEACHER. i didnt learn ne thing really from the lectures. he taught in the way that every one knew exactly what he was talking about. i never mastered chemisty and he expected everyone to have mastered it.
People complain about how he is hard to understand, but I am very happy that I had him as a teacher. He makes the curve to where you really have to try to fail the course. He pretty much wont give anyone a grade below a C. He was very nice and enthusiastic and quite lenient on regrading the tests. Just take CLAS with the course and you are golden!
The first day I went to his class he talked about how he wanted to retire but the chem department needed a Chem professor so he stayed. I have a difficultry understanding him. I recommend you take CLAS. His test are pretty easy, i high recommend you read the material on your on time, then you will ace the tests
I can't understand anything he says. He gives you enough time to copy down information, but you can't understand how he explains things. Tests are hard, but passable if you study. You basicly have to teach yourself. Try to get someone else. Poor old man.
He definitely needs to retire and I was assured of this when he said "I took the equivalent of this course back in 1950." He's a poor old man and I feel bad for him, he should be out enjoying the rest of his life, not being taunted behind his back. Poor man can't teach.
i really wanted to like the guy. He reminds me of my grandpa and i think he would have some good stories if it was a diff kind of clas... anyway, dont waste your time going to lectures and trying to copy stuff down. Just take clas and you'll be set! very easy prof.
I don't know why everyone dislikes him so much. His class was soooooo easy and he was the sweetest man I have ever met. He can be difficult to understand at times, but he's so nice. Plus, it's an easy A.
you know that you need to stop teaching when you can't even hear your microphone screeching everytime you hit it. god gave him tendonitis from writing on the chalkboard for too long FOR A REASON... it's time for him to stop teaching. how old is he anyway... 94? HORRIBLE, horrible, horrible.
i ended up with this guy after harris got cancer and i wanted to kill myself. you can't understand anything that comes out of his mouth,i just stopped taking notes altogether because its impossible to keep up with his slides.
a nice old man, but hard to understand. he is very helpful if you go to his office hours.
he is difficult to understand, but reading the text is more than enough prep for his tests.
hard 2 understand because he just mumbles not realizing dat no one understands him...changes slides like the whole world is done w/ copying them when they're really not...get van koppen...just get van koppen!
**** knows his stuff, but he doesn't know how to dumb it down for students in a clear, interesting manner. You can't understand most of what he's saying and he writes on a projector. Take Van Koppen instead.
