Reviews of professor Bill Wills

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
Dr. Wills frequently cancels class for person reasons or sickness, leaving hours of lectures to be learned by yourself. He doesn't lecture at the same speed as the lab and ends up chapters behind creating a confusing discontinuity in the material. He makes things hard for students because it seems he honestly has no passion for teaching anymore.

He's a great&caring human that tries to form a relationship with his class, but you can tell he's more of a researcher than a professor. You can still pass even with doing bad on exams, but even with a failing class average, he'd blame it on how we study instead of making serious changes himself. Other than his exams, the class wasn't that bad.

This class was horrible. Each class has a powerpoint slideshow with maybe 100 slides that he FLIES through, not to mention the slideshow videos he will post but never mention in class- those are totally on you. If you never want to stop studying or catching up, take this class! Otherwise, just wait and get a better professor.

Dr. WIlls is super nice, truly, but as for taking his class, I DONOT recommend. Other teachers for this class give extra credit and help you understand what's being tested on. Wills runs through his lectures so fast not even allowing you to get all the notes and the test is just beyond me. I don't think I'm a dumb person, but I really struggled.

Dr. Wills made my favorite subject unenjoyable. I love ecology, it's my major, but his tests are so difficult that it is nearly impossible to do well. The only exam I or any of my friends were able to finish in the allotted time the entire semester was the final. All tests are long-answer and have lots of questions. Lectures were dull as well.

You can clearly tell he is a research professor by the way he lectures and views test averages. Don't be surprised when he says he is happy when the class averages a 65 on the exam. It is considerate that he does make the first couple exams weighted less.
