Pros: He uploads all lectures online and is good at explaining the power points. They give you a good opportunity to score 100 percent on the HM but its online and the online HM does not show you how to get to the right answer so you are on your own.
Cons: Lectures do not show you how to solve problems on the test. They explain the "why" behind chemistry but you will not be tested on the why.
Chemistry should be taught to criminals as capital punishment!

He's a great teacher. One of the best I've ever had. He provides examples that are relevant to the course and really helps.

I love chemistry, yet hated this class. You do everything correct on the homework and take the practice tests but yet everyone seemed to do horrible on the tests which is what your grade is based off of for the most part.
