Quality 1/5Difficulty 5/5
He seems like a nice guy, but he's the worst professor I've had this year at wisco. Many would agree that his lectures were terrible and way way way too fast. I would give him a 0 if I could. Half of the students stopped attending lectures by the end of the semester. He made me hate Physics and gave me my first ever C. Avoid him if possible.

He taught the second half of PHY201, and was great when compared to Yibin Pan - gave us time to try problems, explained things, did demos, seemed to not hate teaching. However, the class was still pretty terrible, not set up very well, labs didn't support learning, and oh yeah we had a homework assignment due a week after the end of the semester.
