Reviews of professor Tristan Haseler

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
He just does not break down and explain concepts well. Although he may "know them", he lectures from his notes so there is little to no in-class interaction. He curves his test A LOT, but it does not make up for me not being taught the information in an understandable way.

Literally the worst physics professor.

Horrible, horrible, horrible. Take everything bad about an educator, and you get Tristan Haseler.

ALL intro classes suck. Precalc sucks, 1211/1212 chemistry sucks. Bio 1 sucks. Whoever assumed 2000 level physics would blow their mind, is dumb. I hated lecture, but that's to be expected from an into class. Pop quizzes were easy. He gives study guides, and also curves the exams. Go into 2211 with ACCURATE expectations, regardless of lecturer.

The WORST professor I have ever had! He goes through PowerPoints he found on the internet and never uses numbers when solving problems. He writes notes for his lectures and problems are worked out on there so he basically just copies them on the board without really explaining much. All quizzes are unannounced about chapters not taught in class.

This professor is truly awful. He has no clue how to teach this subject. Please avoid taking him at all costs. This is your warning. I don't think I will ever have a professor as bad as this guy. Save yourself.

I had him for Principles 1 & tried to avoid him for 2 but the school threw a lot of us in his class last second without any warning. Probably because NO ONE was signing up! I can honestly say that in TWO SEMESTERS I learned NOTHING I didn't have to teach myself. Take a shot every time he says "ummm" in a class & guaranteed you'll be dead 15mins in.

Took him during the summer so classes were very long/dense. However, normal semesters such as fall/spring should be manageable. He mostly lectures for the majority of the class, but attending lectures is the easiest way of getting credit b/c he sometimes starts off with a pop quiz and/or ends with a worksheet graded for completion.

This class was one of the hardest I have ever taken, mostly due to Professor Haseler. He would write overly complex equations on the board that he arrives at with little to no explanation. The only thing that will get you to pass this class would be his steep curves. If you want to understand and even enjoy physics, avoid this professor.

Reads off of pre-made (i.e. he didn't make them and doesn't add to them) PP slides. Never enough time for tests (although he does curve). Can't explain things clearly. The few examples given in class involve A LOT of variables/formulas with no numbers or very few. If it wasn't for the Internet, I would have had to withdraw from this class.
