Not clear with material, lecture offers no additional understanding. If you take him, be ready for hours searching for youtube reaction videos and reading the book for tests.",

Lecture was straight from the book but crammed the important material and droned about concepts that were not applicable.

He's very nice and approachable though. STUDY AHEAD OF TIME!!! Chem 345 is no joke. A LOT OF MATERIAL! Try to get ahead of lectures. Practice!",
