Reviews of professor Derrick Hamilton

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
always goes over any work done. homework, notes, or tests. will answer any and all questions no matter how simple. always gives a review day before exams. not the best replying to emails. he is OCD which is helpful when teaching/taking notes. go to SI sessions it helps.

The semester started off shaky because he was in the process of setting up his course, HOWEVER after two weeks he had the hiccups resolved and things began to level out. He does give a bit of homework but it is for the best interest of the student so you obtain hands on practice with the material. Accounting is A LOT of information. He done great!

Super funny. You never know what to expect when walking into his class... a new haircut, strange outfit, holographic fanny pack, or silly bandz. That being said, he wasn't the best professor for me just because of the way he explains things. Just didn't work great for me, but just study all the material he provides and you'll be totally fine.

Pretty decent and chill guy. Has a nice sense of style. After doing the interactive tutorials, you are expected to just get the concepts stated there. Lots of the classes are spent going over non-multiple choice questions from homework. He does try to make it up to you if you are struggling with extra credit and grades generously on tests.

Hamilton seems like a cool guy out of class but in my opinion he is not a good teacher. He does not have the ability to keep attention well or explain material well. This class has been a struggle the whole time and I would not recommend taking him.

he offered a lot of material to help you understand the lessons. His practice exams are almost the exact same as the test just with different words and numbers. Lots of extra credit available. Easy to reach outside of class too. If you arent passing his course, you probably arent trying.
