Reviews of professor Matthew Parks

Rating: 2.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
Dr. Parks was probably one of the most caring professors I have ever had. He does everything he possibly can to help his students succeed such as multiple bonus point opportunities, study review sessions, and being available outside of class. Extremely hard class combined with a super smart professor was my downfall. I need things dumbed down

Dr. Parks is a very kind, caring professor. He genuinely wants his students to do well. However, this dude is so brilliant that his students often cannot understand what he's trying to tell us, even when asking questions. Lab was fairly easy if you showed up and paid attention. Definitely not a bad lab professor, simple class.

Dr Parks is great but keep in mind the material is long and it is challenging. His slides are pretty good. The exams are not easy but they're not super tough either provided you study properly using the study guide. He is very nice very accommodating and offers extra credit opportunities.

Genetics is a LOT of information; If you don't study right after class you will fall VERY behind. Parks essentially reads the powerpoint to you all semester. Personally am not a fan of that. However, he does respond vv well to emails and does so often. He never missed answering my questions and emails. Very nice guy. Just not my fav teaching style.
