Comment:
Professor DeVeries is very sharp, but he takes many shortcuts during calculation. Clarify what formula and variables he is using during class. He loves to use variable values that drop out (i.e. mass 1, radius 1, etc.). He is very accessible outside of class, and is willing to work with you if you put in the time.

Devries is awesome. He goes fast in lectures and makes mistakes every now and then, but does a good job of explaining himself for the most part. Homework in this class is difficult (due twice a week) yet manageable. Exams are very fair.

Comment:
One of the nicest professors in the department. His lectures give a lot of hints to the homework and he's always willing to answer questions. Has convenient office hours. He makes mistakes on equations sometimes so pay attention in lectures. He doesn't use problems from the book so it's not required, but a nice reference.

Dr Devries' personality is awesome.he has funny stories to keep lectures interesting and is ALWAYS willing to help students out.his lectures are fast paced and sometimes hard to follow(e.g. in class examples he writes equations with the numbers already plugged in without first writing the equation).time constraint is the only hard part of the tests

I can't say enough about how awesome this guy is. The lectures are fantastic, he's always helpful, and the homework and tests are always fair. Also, his constant wise cracks always kept the class entertained. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND HIM FOR ANY CLASS.

The class is really hard to pay attention in because the only time it's ever been taught is 7:30 am. He's a little dislexic. You're kinda forced to go to class becase of quizzes. Teaching and tests don't match the homework too well. Super helpfull if you get lost though.

He is an awesome teacher. You can tell he loves what he does and he does whatever he can to help you. There is a lot of homework but it's exactly like the tests. I would try to get him for any class he teaches.
