    "comment": "Definitely the best physics professor I've had so far at UW. He made content digestible and gave step-by-step explanations for problems. Tests were incredibly reasonable and realistic. He never used the word \"trivial\" when explaining something, and he has fair expectations of his students. I wish every professor could be more like him.",

No final exam, instead an easy final project that helped a lot of our grades. It took a while to get grades back although that was mostly the TA, not him.",

Due to the size of the class and only 1 TA, feedback was heavily delayed but grading was very generous. If you are attentive during lecture and do some practice, exams will feel fair and balanced. The exams cover the most important topics in the class.",
