Reviews of professor Jeff Hengesbach

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
He is kinda rude on giving feedback. He calls you out if you did something wrong and it really brings you down and scared to say anything else. His class can be fun at times but majority of the time it's a very quiet class. Since everyone is scared to talk

Decent physics course. Not necessarily a terrible professor but not a good one. Just a forgettable middle ground. Tons of work within a journal and plenty of pop quizzes. Will have to actually try to pass, but won't be too complicated.

Jeff gets frustrated easily and talks with a very condescending tone. Jeff is also unforgiving with his attendance grade. He does not care if you are sick, in the hospital, or out of town. He will give you a zero on the attendance grade. I find this to be extremely ironic, as he was absent in class due to a family matter and said, "Life happens.

He will shut you down easily for being wrong, made our circle very hard to speak up about anything because if it's wrong you'll hear. No clear study guide for tests and finals, will tell you to just look at old problems. You'll be learning most of the class online anyways by yourself. He will say he doesn't care how you feel. Goes over things once.

Jeff is an amazing professor, he always provides time for any help needed. Takes time to have discussions with the class and makes sure everyone is on the same page. Physics can be difficult but he does his best to have multiple learning options such as videos, readings, worksheets, and hands-on projects that make it easier to understand.

Jeff is great, he likes to get us to think as scientists in our groups. Hands-on projects w/ quantifiable data+observations. About every other day there will be a reading HW w/ Journal Notes, or HW Sheet, not a tough grader but plenty of work to stay engaged (just right). Stays on schedule and grades the same day, 10/10 would recommend.

Physics is a hard subject & while I didn't get an amazing grade, I can't say it was because of Professor Hengesbach. He genuinely cares if you understand what's going on & was willing to help out before/after class. There's a lot of homework but with physics, it's kind of expected + a lot of group work and quizzes + extra credit to gain points back

Although it was a harder course, he made the concepts fairly simple to understand. There is quite a lot of homework that you would have to do in your journals, so if you have a larger load of classes, makes sure you would have enough time to do about 2 assignments after each class. He genuinely cares about teaching and has enjoyable lectures.
