Reviews of professor Charles Garrison

Rating: 2.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Do not take this professor of you can take another one. He is very passive aggressive and sometimes if you accidentally make a mistake more than once he just aggressive. I had a bad instructor last year and this year was worst. I will give him credit, he does kinda sorta explains things before lab. I got an A, but I hated his class. pathetic

He gave you everything you needed for the lab report on the board. However, I struggled with some of the labs and he was zero help. I once had trouble with the lab, and he made me feel terrible for it. He was extremely rude. I never enjoyed coming to the lab.

Awful professor and very condescending. He is very rude and unhelpful especially to my partner and I, and made many of us genuinely afraid to ask questions as he would give a snarky comment or make us feel dumb for not understanding. He grades very harshly and does not help with the labs so we were always confused.

Overall, I liked him. It was a lot of work and writing, but he really explained things and would work through problems and give great examples. He was sarcastic and funny, some thought he was rude. Work was tough at times, but all the tools are there to make a good grade, he just wants effort. One complaint is the lab write ups would take forever.

Took him for Chem 1211K and loved him, same thing in Chem 1212K. Overall, dude knows his stuff and will help if you ask questions. The labs aren't hard, most of them you can find online. Chem isn't easy, but do the labs and quizzes and you'll be fine. He drops the lowest lab grade and your lowest quiz grade too.

Its like taking an online class but in person. Copy the procedures from online into your notebook and the info is on the board but after that, you're on your own. In the first lab, he thought the lab was supposed to go on for more than an hour past the class time and despite 4-5 people speaking up, he just shrugged his shoulders and said "too bad".

He is the Chem Lab instructor. It was an easy A. The labs may take work outside of class but you can always email him for help. He drops your lowest lab and the online quizzes are easy, direct from the book. Overall, if you're taking him just do the labs and quizzes, show up and you'll get an A or a B in the lab.

Before lab, he talks A LOT about what you're going to do and everything which sometimes is helpful but most of the time I was just waiting to go ahead and do the lab. I would just print off the lab papers and do the lab notebook and you should be alright. He can make simple things confusing but luckily lab was once a week and it ended 2 weeks early
