Reviews of professor Joshua Wofford

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
This class was absolutely terrible. I went to office hours several times and all he would do is half way listen to your questions while he was either on his phone or playing with objects on his desk. DO NOT TAKE HIM! I studied constantly and had to hire a tutor on my own. If you get behind at all in this class you are screwed.

His exams are impossible. Half the questions are things he never taught us. The lectures are literally him clicking through his slides with no real explanation. If you ask questions, his answers are only more confusinghe never simplifies to explain. This is an extremely difficult class; I got the grade I did bc of chemistry lectures on youtube.

He goes way too fast, keeps rushing lessons because we are "behind schedule". Half of the test was not on the study guide. Cool guy, but as a professor he does not how to teach at all. I asked a group of my classmates and they said they do not know what he is talking about most of the time. Please CSU needs to have him evaluated.

Chemistry 121 is not at all an easy class that requires minimal effort.  Dr. Wofford is easily accessible outside of class if you got to his office hours and is more than glad to go back over things from class.  He drops the lowest test and the final has a huge curve.  Not impossible to make an A but you will definitely have to earn it

Many of the negative reviews here were written when he was newer to teaching at CSU and are now inaccurate. In my experience, he far exceeded my expectations. While he isn't the most captivating lecturer, he gives plenty of time for students to ask questions. Gives homework probs to help w studying and weekly quizzes. Found him to be very fair.

Dr. Wofford is a difficult professor. If you have background knowledge of chemistry, you will likely do better in his class. He seems to get frustrated when he is asked questions because he finds the class easy. I don't believe the lectures reflect what is on the test and you will likely get blindsided by the material on the test.

He really wants you to succeed. Yes he is hard but he is genuinely trying to teach you a subject he obviously loves. He does such a great job of explaining the tough concepts and making them more understandable. Yes its a hard class, but remember, this is chemistry. Its going to be hard anyways... minus well get a professor who gives it his all!
