Quality 5/5Difficulty 4/5
Josh is a solid physics professor who explains difficult concepts in a clear and understandable way. He is knowledgeable, organized, and always willing to answer questions. His lectures are engaging, and he does a good job connecting theory to practical examples. Overall, I had a positive experience and would recommend taking his class.Rate My Professors ↗

Weber is the best for 201. He is a bit awkward, but still able to explain the elementary concepts of the class well. I feel that the class is run poorly; however, labs and discussions are not helpful. This isn't Josh's fault, though; he may be occasionally unorganized but is overall pretty solid.Rate My Professors ↗

Great professor, but often rushed at the end of lectures and didn't finish his notes. Wish he did more examples, but he explained concepts thoroughly and made lectures engaging. Overall a really difficult class, but he made it interesting.Rate My Professors ↗

Josh is really good at lecturing and giving good example problems that will be similar to ones on the test while in lecture. Does a really good job at explaining information and makes it easy to learn hard topics. Very approachable and very helpful if you have questions. Josh is amazing!Rate My Professors ↗
