Reviews of professor Kyle Strohmaier

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Great professor. Office hours were the best; there were often many of us just doing homework in the STEM center and Professor Strohmaier would be there ready to help out. He loves to expound physics to his students, is intelligent, funny, and is a humble guy overall. I switched to PHYS 22 with him as soon as I found out he would be teaching it. :)

This man is the most amazing Professor! He has a deep passion for teaching as well as a drive to help students understand the material. He is always available as long as you reach out to him. Take his class!

Professor Strohmaier is a wonderful professor. He really cares if you understand the material, and will make sure you understand. The homework is also not coding. It's real easy, and when you put in equations it's just a push of a button. Really made me love physics. Take Professor Strohmaier you will not regret it.

Hilarious and genuine. Provides weekly surveys to ask how you are dealing with COVID and how your situation is going at home. He understands anxiety and even deals with it himself; he is great at talking you down. He took an hour outside class to talk to me about the reality of being a physics major. The only downside is he is allergic to grading.

With consistent feedback, it would be 5/5. He's an incredible Professor, making what could easily be made an inaccessible topic, very understandable. He's kind, available, and patient. He seems to grade fairly with the understanding he wasn't able to give the feedback promised. Unlike many other Physics profs, it's obvious he wants you to succeed.

Easily my most challenging class at SMC.  This is a class you need to understand concepts more than rote memorization.  He's nice and is determined to help.  Really chill guy, but will grade harshly.  His first exam is ridiculous lol, but it is all down hill from there.  I didn't think much of physics, but he inspired me to pursue more physics.

worst professor

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
Talks so slowly that it's hard to stay engaged. Also goes off topic multiple times. He provides "messy" notes and they're literally so messy that you don't learn anything from it. Exams are not similar to problems that were covered in class. Extremely slow grader. Stay away if you want to maintain your GPA.

Very inspiring and passionate about physics and science education! Utilizes various effective teaching methods and activities! He encourages interactive lectures! Sort of like an educational and fun dialogue! OFFICE HOURS! He'll be glad to get to know you and figure out the best methods to help you understand physics! Thank you Prof. Strohmaier!!!!
