I have taken other chem profesors and out of all of them i found this profesor the most helpful. He really tries to make an effort to help his students pass his class, he also tries to make himself available to students. You can always approach him after lectures and he always tried to relate concepts to things you already were familiar with. I do not know what these poeple are talking about he was the easiest proffesor to understand and always went along with the textbook, so basically if you read and did the homework you could easily get a B for the class.

he's really good at explaining some things (like organic) but terrible at others (like orbitals - the TAs did better jobs). he's super easy, a really nice and funny guy. tests were just like homework problems, if not easier. pretty fair grading, but his system favors smart flakes (which ticks me off a little). i enjoyed the class.
