Reviews of professor Marco Zimmer-de Iuliis

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Amazing prof, gives good pointers and his slides are amazing. If you do all of his assigned questions, you will definitely get a good mark. He speaks clearly and his slides are pretty informative as long as you take notes.

Only first year prof I've had who actually recognizes that not everyone starts with the same ability level and starts off super basic before building up. Lots of helpful examples in his slides. Make sure you ask him questions when you don't understand.

He's really good at explaining + adds practice problems. He doesn't put the solutions for the practice problems online so you'll have to get answers from a friend or go in-person if you want the answers. Teaches like a high school teacher so it's easy to understand. He's kinda blunt tho but its cool LOL.

If I am honest, he is a very fair professor. On the final exam, there were not any surprises. There wasn't content that he had not taught during the lectures. His slides are nice and concise which was useful for the final exam and general review. The midterm was also very fair and matches what he told us to expect

Excellent course and professor! Lectures were very organized and detailed but he helped to summarize the necessary information. All assessments were very reasonably marked and the midterm tests and the final exam were easy and very manageable. An excellent alternative to CHMA11 (if you want to avoid the killer final) with accessible professors!

Great professor! The module he taught was basically a grade 12 review so it wasn't too hard but he really explains things thoroughly. His lectures are amazing and the slides are always posted beforehand to have a look through. He also hosts "Chemists Consuming Coffee" sessions every Friday where you can come and converse with him about anything.

Marco was amazing at explaining content during lectures in a way that was straightforward and easy to understand! His midterm and final questions were very fair, mostly calculation based as long as you practised those enough. Really loved the way he explained concepts, made it easy to understand and willing to answer questions.
