Reviews of professor Alexander Reamy

Rating: 3.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Loads of work for a 200 level course. You are graded on 6 total assignments (4 homework assignments which take several hours to complete and count for 5% of your grade, and 2 tests which count as 40%). Be ready to spend lots of time figuring out problems on your own. A positive is that Professor Reamy does respond quickly when needed.

Reamy is an adequite professor. He goes super fast through lectures, writes in tiny print so reading a whiteboard is difficult. This semester was on Zoom, and he offered next to nothing online. He grades off of 3-4 tests and extra credit. He doesnt require attendance!! HW is harder than tests(not in a good way)

He is knowledgeable and has time friendly office hours. Some material in lecture was hard to understand so reading the book or other materials will help. Book homework is due Friday and webwork on Sunday. The homework was harder than the tests. Tests are multiple choice with a couple show work problems. Multiple choices are all or nothing points.

My professor holds a dedicated pre-exam lecture to clarify doubts and solve problems related to the upcoming exam's topic. It's important to take responsibility for our performance and acknowledge our lack of effort and discipline as the real cause of poor performance. The professor shouldn't be blamed for our lack of success.

He is one of the few Calc 2 professors to use a textbook for homework. Lectures are not helpful and honestly confuse me more. Recomend reading the textbook in order to have some kind of understanding before classes.

He is a new teacher, but he does not reply to emails very fast, does not do anything with his website (core-classes are required to have websites) and it only contains the syllabus, opts to send mass emails for announcements. Can go very fast in class, and sometimes confusing at that. Could be inexperience, but still is hard only because of him.
