Reviews of professor Cody Smith

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Brother Smith is the nicest guy ever. This class is hard because there is so much information. You have to do the reading before class, because he just asks questions for most of class. He doesn't usually teach new info, it is all questions seeing what you know. Also the questions he asks are a lot harder than the actual test questions.

Great guy, the class was super easy and informative about what biology majors can do after college.

Loved Cody! He is super caring about his students even though he has a lot. He is very organized and gives you all the information that will be on the exams. He does extra credit!

a great professor! he only goes over things in the lecture that we need to know on the exam's. lots of extra credit opportunities ( up to 25points) he will meet with you and help you figure out what you need to do to improve. he is very nice but also straight up about what you need to change or do. super awesome guy!

PLEASE READ Brother Smith is a genuinely nice guy. He does spend a lot more time on spiritual thought than needed. However, he is the worst in person teacher I've ever had. This class is not easy & he rarely taught an actual lecture to explain things that were hard to understand. I feel like I had to teach myself. Beware of Exam 3. 25 EC available

This teacher expects all your knowledge to come from the book and doesn't interact much with the class it is straight lectures. Lots of hard tests and have to attend.

Brother Smith is really nice, and he is very passionate about this class. He spends a lot of time on spiritual thoughts and review, however I was also very prepared for the tests.

He contradicts the textbook. He has a script of what he teaches and can't answer many of the questions we ask. He spends the first 30 minutes talking and not teaching. Wastes time on the simple easy things (reviewing concepts we know) and won't teach the harder to understand topics. He is a good man but I feel he doesn't know the material

Cares about his students and more about their learning than their grades. He makes sure you really understand the content. Inspirational. Would definitely take another class from him.

He is a super nice and caring guy, but he often does not cover all the material that is needed for the test. When students have questions he will tell them to look them up instead of helping them. He takes up most of the class time with a spiritual thought and tries to speed through the lesson or doesn't cover it.
