Reviews of professor Stephen Merryman

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
With all due respect he is a caring and kind professor. However, he's not someone i would recommend to anyone to take for any Physics. You can barley hear him unless you sit in front of the class, he expects you to already know everything before hand and just trails off. Barley works any example problems out. My advice find another professor.

He is a caring Professor, but he does kinda wander off when he teaches hard to understand. I had a tough time in his University Physics class since I could barely hear him and his writing is not understandable. He does give extra credit problems but be prepared to teach yourself. No questions in test are similar to homework or test review.

Out of every difficult class that I have indulged in taking during my academic career, this class was by far the most strenuous. Professor Merryman absolutely bombed my experience with learning physics. He had bad handwriting, refused to give additional help when inquired, and never explained topics in depth. Do yourself a favor and dont take him.

This professor was very poor. He had poor communication between him and his students, taking days to reply to an email that might have an important question. His teaching method is quite outdated, with long lectures where most of the time he is mumbling and can be barely heard.

He whispers the whole lecture, while facing the whiteboard. Did not learn a single thing in class, taught myself. He is a sweet and really nice guy, just not a good teacher.

If you want to learn Physics, stop right here and go select another teacher. You will not learn it with Mr. Merryman. You will not understand his handwriting, he writes in an alien language. He will speed through 3 chapters in about 1.5 hours, it's not possible to learn physics like this. Nice guy, but he should be in industry, not teaching it.

Professor Merryman is a very nice man. However, he is very quiet and hard to understand as he teaches. Like many math/science professors, they kind of just go off into their own world as they teach, but he is very lenient on grading and will help you succeed if you talk with him one on one. Definitely had to study hard for this class.

His lectures are very hard to understand because he just pulls up a textbook and starts rambling. He does not do many example problems either he just blows through all of the material quick. The homework questions are difficult and sometimes there are a lot of questions. There are a lot of quizzes so be prepared, and make sure you study for exams.
