3.   What are the instructor’s major strengths as a teacher?
Very conscious about ensuring that every student understood the material. Focuses on the practical aspects of scientific concepts, which helped me to better grasp the material. Patient and tries his best to answer every question.
He is very into the topic, He has a lot of energy which makes the class fun and not boring, He is there to answer any question you throw at him, The class feels like home as he is very approachable during classes for help. He also made hard class material very easy by putting it in the most simplest words which was really helpful.
Very helpful and enjoyed his lectures
- great at explaining things more simply - can tell he puts alot of work in the slides and stuff he teach us - shows video /animations - provides you questions about chapter to get you thinking - surfer - lets classmates work together - images/diagrams used in slides
He cares for students, makes sure students understand lectures, and teaches really well.
This instructors patients are boundless. He is very engaged and loves to provoke thought from his students. He focuses more on the how and why than fact memorization.
Amazing professor It's easy for international students to understand and ask questions in class He always stays longer on zoom for students Material is given before the class
Explaining concepts very well


4.   How can the instructor modify the course materials and assignments to better support your learning?
-
the overall class was fairly easy and fun because of him but some things that he could add to make the class more engaged more are discussions. but overall class was great how it was!
I think the class went really well and I thoroughly enjoyed it
- make the key point in the slides lit bit more simple maybe or to highlights the key point in it rather then lots of txt on the slide but still does help alot to have lots of writing
N/a
Would love to see this class in person. That's all I would change.
I really wanted to take his class face-to-face
the homemade powerpoints explained things very well
