Comment:
Tony is as ideal as it gets for Physics. He is a basic man, born and raised on a farm, who breaks physics down into basic parts. He makes it as easy and as lazy as possible to solve any problem. He likes picking on students that ask a lot of questions, but that means he likes you. It tells him you're trying-- he rewards the triers very very well.

Hands down my favorite professor here. This said, it is not an easy course at all. You have to put in the work, we are in college and he is not going to spoon feed you. Do problems at home, show up and show you care, and you will make an A. He is a very caring professor and wants to see you succeed. Loved him!!!

This professor is hands down the best professor I have ever had. He breaks down physics to an understandable level and keeps it amusing. You HAVE to ask questions. He teaches his class through the questions asked. reach out for help if you need it . He cares about his students and wants them to learn.

I received a B in this class, and I was pretty upset about it. It is an easy A for sure. He doesn't post notes online, so you have to go to class to get the notes. Tests are the only grades, so you have to do well on those to get an A. However, if you come consistently to class and pay attention- there should be no problem passing this class.

Tony is amazing, he makes physics relatable to college students. he makes you enjoy learning, and teaches in a way that doesnt feel like being lectured. if you go to class and take good notes, you should get an A no problem!

When Tony says work problems, HE IS NOT KIDDING. If you do not work problems, you will not pass. When you do work out problems and ask questions, you better be prepared to answer. He will help you with whatever you need, but he will not do the work for you. I would highly recommend, but if you do not come to class YOU ARE GOING TO FAIL.

Tony's class is hard, no doubt about it. If you can't handle honesty, or don't want to show up to class then don't take his class. If you can't handle a 5 question test, don't take his class. If you want the simplest version of calculus based physics, then TAKE HIS CLASS. Labs are extremely easy. Tests are exact problems from class. Curve? Oh yeah.

Tony is a GREAT professor & makes an 8AM class worth it. His 5 total exams are HARD, especially if you don't try outside of class. Free PDF book available for problems. No graded homework. Go to tutoring nights; join a study group, and bust your butt to make that A. *Huge* curve at the end. 1st grade was a 25, and I ended up with an A.

Comment:
Test were not as easy as he believes them to be. He barely gives partial credit on tests. I would work the problems in the book to study for his test but it didnt help. He explains that working problems would be similar to test ones but it wasnt all fact. I wasnt happy with the experience in his physics class.

Do absolutely everything Tony says it will pay off in the end. Always do the problems he tells you to do. Dont underestimate this class but you will be rewarded for the effort you put in. The animal always dies.

Great professor; worth the 8 am. He makes physics as simple as it can be. Only tests and labs are grades. Go to class and practice problems. Funny guy who cares about students.

Tony is a great guy. He makes class fun, and he's very clear about what will and won't be on the test. He's beyond willing to help you outside of class or after class if you don't understand something. I'm terrible at math, but How Things Work was the only class I could take at the time, but the math we did use was easy stuff. He's hilarious too!

Tony is the man! His class is some kind of hard, but if you just practice what he tells you and follow his advice you should be able to do just fine. His tests are tough but he prepares you for them really well. I would highly recommend Tony over the other Phys profs. Worth the 8am for sure.

Tony is by far the best Physics professor I have come across. I had to take physics twice so this was my second round, but he was so clear and broke concepts down so that they can be fully understood. PRACTICE outside of class. He doesn't give homework for a grade, but you should do practice problems on your own or you won't pass his tests. GREAT!

I am not a morning person, but he made the morning lectures more digestible than any afternoon death by power point. He involves everyone, and make you think constructively about every facet of what you need to understand. If had a shortfall in the class it was my own doing because he gives everyone the tools to succeed. It's your job to succeed.

Tony is the funniest professor I've had. He structures PHYS1135 specifically for students who know nothing about physics and won't have to know it again. He takes all the math and hard stuff out, makes the class about common sense, and makes it fun. You do have to show up and pay attention to pass the tests.

Amazing Professor. He took all the extra stuff you don't need out of the class and makes it easy to understand. All you need to do is show up, ask questions, and do practice problems, and you do need to do a bunch to get a good grade. I got a C, but that's only because I didn't do enough problems. Practice makes perfect.

Comment:
Professor Deal LOVES his job, and he made class so enjoyable and fairly short. Unfortunately besides giving a few test question in class he doesn't do a good job of explaining the material, so if you haven't taken a basics physics class before, I do not recommend taking him. If you take him make sure you go to class and pay attention!
