Reviews of professor David Yenerall

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
Professor Yenerall is easy-going and very approachable. He'll always help you out as long as you show some interest and effort. The class is straightforward with some basic math involved, which is much easier than chem or physics. Take this professor if you can, you'll love astronomy even more!

The best professor I had so far. I took his class for both Astronomy 1010 and 1020 with labs. His lectures are fun and easy to understand. The group assignments he assigned helped us to discuss the chapters and share with our classmates. It is an easy A if you attend his lectures and keep up with the assignments. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

Funny professor who's knowledgeable on astronomy, will be taking him next semester for Astronomy 1020 as well. His lab was very much busy work with nothing really learned, just sitting on Excel filling in information. His lecture, however, was really engaging, and I would recommend him to anyone who is not a science person, who needs science credit

Free online textbook, but at what cost? Yenerall is dismissive of concerns, as well as he literally doesn't teach. You get in groups of people, who also don't know the material, to teach each other the material. If you bring up a concern privately, he'll call you out publicly. Tested over material not discussed. Anything to get his dissertation.

I had an amazing time this semester with professor Yenerall! Astronomy itself is fascinating, but his classes make it even more interesting and fun! This class is for sure much easier than any other science class, but, don't expect to do nothing and get a good grade. You'll have some homework to do, but its super easy and enjoyable!

An awesome teacher who is funny, and very knowledgeable who is always willing to work with his students about grades and the information taught in class. He is a must take for ASTR every time, I have taken him 2 semesters in a row, and I will constantly recommend him.

weekly icollege quizzes and homework assignments. a couple discussions. interesting class. pretty laid-back prof and clearly loves astronomy. we went off topic a lot. a couple in class group activities that weren't graded but fun. final was cumulative but we can bring a cheat sheet.

Professor Yenerall is by far one of the best professors. He does assume everyone has read the chapters but he is clear on what he expects every class. Clearly passionate about Astronomy. Gives plenty of opportunity to make an A. #ExtraCredit ... his test can be a bit difficult if you dont read but I would highly recommend!
