Reviews of professor Zack Reed

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Dr. Reed is a great professor. He teaches a hard subject, and he understands that. He will always find time to meet with you outside of class to explain the lessons in more detail. He truly cares about the success of his students. Attendance was not mandatory. Although there was a lot of homework, he is open to extending it for you to actual learn.

Dr. Reed is amazing. I struggled to understand explanations in class, but he was more than willing to spend time explaining it to me afterwards. Before finals, I did office hours everyday. He was always helpful and never made me feel dumb. He really cares how his students do. Completion hw and webassigns were easy and you could ask for extensions.

First and foremost, Dr. Reed is one of the nicest and relatable professors I've had. Very nice guy overall. Although he's a great guy, I struggled to comprehend some of his calculus explanations. I took calculus in high school, but still felt kind of puzzled on some of the topics he taught. I wished he did more example problems in class.

Great Professor. I had taken Calc in high school, and I can say confidently that he teaches it well. He's also makes himself accessible and is caring; for example, he recommended me a Calc II professor when registering for the next semester. The only reason I didn't have an A in his class is because I didn't keep up with the weekly hw. (Fall 2018)

I took Calc 1 with Doctor Reed and I would not recommend him. While he is readily available for help, extremely kind & cares greatly for his students, he is not a great teacher. I took AP Calc in high school and was expecting this class to be a breeze, but his teaching just confused me on most topics and I often just referred to my HS notes.
