Reviews of professor Eriks Perkons

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Easy going and interested in what he taught. Lectures are not mandatory, but helpful. Labs were required and weren't too difficult, just boring due to the work.

He's nice but the class itself is super difficult. If you're new to geology, I would suggest taking another professor. He's knowledgeable but had a hard time explaining things at times and seemed disorganized when it came to grades. I think he'd be better at teaching an upper-level course instead.

This professor kind of explains things in class but not really and just reads off the powerpoint. For the position briefs he doesn't explain how to do it and you just have to figure it out yourself. he also is a hard grader, and grades way too slowly, has taken over a month to grade stuff. would not recommend

Pretty good class that professor perkons made very enjoyable. During labs if you have questions he is great help and he drops your lowest lab quiz and homework grade he also curves grades at the end of the semester. He also posts all of his lecture slides on blackboard so if you miss the lecture you will still have the notes. Id take him again.

Way too lecture heavy. He just reads off of the power point slides and does not engage the class or make it interesting at all. The tests are also decently difficult. He does not curve the tests but will the curve the class which doesn't help you figure out what your grade is.

I had Perkons for both lab and lecture and I have enjoyed him. The labs are very long, and the material is a bit dry but he understands that and tries to work with you when you are having issues. I didn't really have any interest in the subject but he did the best he could with it. Overall I would take him again for another class.

I liked Mr. Perkons as a professor. You can tell he's very knowledgeable about the subject and his labs are pretty interesting. The exams are hard and you will probably have a low grade after the first exam but he throws in some easy points at the end of the semester. Hes a good choice if you need a core 7.

Proffesor Perkons is a really nice guy. His lectures are great and he paces them well. He's responsive to feedback and his labs were interesting. The exam material is highlighted in the PowerPoint for easy note taking. Highly recommend taking him for geology courses.

Really nice guy. The labs are actually very interesting, and he is passionate about the subject. The exams are a bit hard however if you study you will easily pass them. I just took this as a core, and it was a solid choice.
