Reviews of professor Shawn Weatherford

Rating: 2.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
Decent lecturer but will not bend in the slightest when it comes to extraneous circumstances. I was in the hospital and he wouldn't let me make up any assignments.

Dr. Weatherford is the best physics professor I've had. Makes lectures engaging with demos and always explains difficult concepts clearly. Gives you plenty of practice problems. Exams are difficult but reasonable if you do lots of practice. Dr. Weatherford is very helpful and kind in office hours - he is very passionate about the material.

Dr. Weatherford was a great prof for physics 1. He explained things well, always had fun demonstrations, and was super nice and funny. The only downside is that he only teaches the without calc physics classes during the summer. The actual class was a lot of work and requires more than most other classes, but that's expected.

Very invested professor who you can tell enjoys what he teaches. Explains everything very well and provides great resources (practice tests and study material, as well as practice questions and explanations for each lesson). Would recommend any class he teaches.

The online learning materials given for PHY2020 online were not enough. I have to learn the material entirely through YouTube and ChatGPT. It's a shame because all it would take is for UF to implement tutorial videos for questions whenever the learner doesn't understand them, similar to their basic college algebra and precalculus online courses.

Good professor, available for help if you need it, homework takes forever though. StudyEdge is your best friend and will help you do well
