This class was tough to take online. There was hours upon upon hours of reading and way too many vocaulary words to memorize. I eneded up taking the 8 week mini and I dont reccomend taking this course unless you do the 16 week. There is too much information to process in 8 weeks.

I think he is one of the best professors I have had at ACC. Very straightforward and gives you everything you need to pass the class. The study guides are so helpful and he is always willing to explain things in detail in class/ during office hours. Never makes you feel dumb for not knowing things. Actually learned a lot from his class. 10/10 recom

Doesnt give a lot of help in his online class, guidelines for projects are not detailed and he takes off points for too much information, exams in his online class are extremely tough and his only answer when asking questions is to study harder.

I made a B because I did not give enough attention to his class, it's that simple. I have him again this semester and have told myself I will make an A. His criteria is clear, he gives wonderful help, and the exams/lab practical's do not have information you didn't learn in class.

Mr. OBrien is an amazing instructor. Kept class and lab interesting while truly caring about the success of his students. Clear about his expectations and always available for assistance. Gave useful reviews on each exam and excellent guidance in lab. Super friendly and approachable. ACC needs more instructors like him!
