Do not be fooled, however, he will make you work harder than you've ever worked. In fact he will challenge you more if you seem to do be doing well; he wants you to learn.\n\nI learned more in one semester than probably the rest of my physics degree.","source_url":"https://www.ratemyprofessors.com/professor/2142180","quality_rating":4,"difficulty_rating":5},{"observed_at":"2026-09-07 16:53:23.937594+00:00","run_id":"20260907T155543-ce3781c4","source_review_id":"UmF0aW5nLTM3ODE2MTA3","source_instructor_id":"rmp:2142180","instructor_name":"Alex Levchenko","course_label":"PHY415","course_id":null,"course_uid":null,"review_date":"2023-05-04 03:26:09 +0000 UTC","comment":"He derives pleasure from torturing students with long difficult homeworks.

Horrible explanations. Horrible class. Physics is supposed to be like a fun math class, but he makes this class unbearable. So horribly bad at explaining things it's actually crazy. He being employed by UW makes one question the reputation of this school.

Horrible class taught at a graduate level to undegrads. Class strength fell from 45 to <20 in the first 3 wks *I wonder why*. Dense homeworks, doesnt help students and ridicules them for asking doubts.

Only take a class from him if you have a PhD in math. He doesn't understand the level that his students are at, mathematically and in physics. He doesn't explain any of the physics concepts, he just speaks math during lecture. He cares about pedagogy at least.","source_url":"https://www.ratemyprofessors.com/professor/2142180","quality_rating":1,"difficulty_rating":5}],"total":18,"page":1,"courses":[{"course_uid":"course_d1341e0b9824e63e21c5b17b","course_id":"PHYSICS 415"}],"matched":true},"socialImage":true}}
