Reviews of professor Charles Butterworth

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
His class is tough, but if you show up to class, take notes, and study, you should pass. His lectures were enjoyable, and he explained everything explicitly, so I never questioned what he was teaching or what I needed to be doing during labs. I really enjoyed his class and his positive personality!

If you took high school biology and earth science and paid even the smallest bit of attention this class is a blow off class. He has some funny quips here and there but most of the time he is super easy to tune out. He lectures pretty much all class, but as I said before its super easy so tuning him out and doing your own thing is really easy.

I took a 3000 level course, and it was hard. I missed one class, but he allows us to miss that as this class correlated with lab it was imperative being present. He's super passionate about biology and hes so sweet. He was respected by all in my class, and he does make you work for your grade, but definitely has an open door policy for all ?s

The most stressful class I have taken because of the un-organization and the horrendous teaching style. He does not post the powerpoints on blackboard, and expects everyone to take notes while he zooms through them. The tests are also terrible because most of it is on material that was not even covered in class.

I had the lab class with him and he was really helpful with making sure lecture and lab made sense. He is helpful if you have questions and labs. He is very nice and good at making sense to beginners in Bio. Tests are relatively easy but attendance matters. If you're late you lose 1 point out of 2 for attendance. Show up. It adds up.
