He is a great teacher. All tests based on lectures not on textbook, although he does recommend reading it for further understanding. However, if you want to learn material not just regurgitate it on a test, take someone else.

Comment:
Seems to be disorganized, but did improve throughout the semester. Test questions are very easy and come straight from his lectures. He grades on a ridiculously good curve. I did have to attended some SI sessions before the tests, but definitely an easy A.

Comment:
Boring, disorganized, and lazy. Who knows when you'll get your homework back? Who knows what'll be on the test? Who knows when he'll get back to the train of thought he left 10 minutes ago, if ever? He's a nice, intelligent man who will try to help you outside of class, but in the end he's just a horrible teacher.

He was never clear on what his expectations or wants were from us. The classes were very boring and hard to stay awake. He is a nice guy just not the professor type.

Comment:
Wow! I didnt know teachers could be this awful at a university. This guy is a moron. I had to teach everything to myself. He was just not born to be a professor. It takes him like an hour to answer a question..."uh, uh, (long pause) ok." Not to mention his voice is so damn annoying.Also, very lazy, never graded HW, I gave party when his wife died.

Comment:
He has an unwillingness to use technology AKA-- Blackboard. Therefore, he refuses to facilitate homework-- due to his being a lazy ****. He says things in the most inconcise way possible. Overall, he is an old lazy, ignorant prof who couldn't really care about students.

After the first couple of classes I felt I wasn't going to like his teaching. However, as the semester progressed he proved to be very receptive to feedback from his students. He adapted the assignments and lectures to help us understand the material. I have learned a lot in his class.

Do not take him, he was not helpful especially if you are not a physics major. Treated everyone like they should know everything about physics.
