Reviews of professor Peter Pingerelli

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
He reads off the slides and teaches close to nothing. You will be teaching yourself, and the quizzes are hard. However, you could skip every class and learn just the same.

Favorite class and favorite professor of the semester. Extremely knowledgeable. Homework takes about 2-3 hrs/week. Pay attention in lecture, ask questions, do the worksheets and the quizzes/tests will be a breeze. If you have the opportunity to take a class from Dr. Pingerelli, definitely do it.

Extremely frustrated by this class. I worked incredibly hard to get an A in this class. I did loads of outside work. Then we got to the final and my grade dropped from a 92.5 to a B. Dont expect the level of effort and understanding you put in to pay off because it ends in a 200 point final that is nothing like anything given all year

Professor Pingerelli is a really sweet guy, but I would never take one of his classes again. The quizzes and tests are very difficult to get a good grade on, and many of the questions are completely different from the practice quizzes or the homework. All he does in lecture is read off the slides, so be prepared to teach yourself everything.

Didnt give as much resources for this class. Reading off of the powerpoint.

Pingerelli is a good person, not a good teacher. Often fell behind in lectures and would rush through important information to catch up. I spent an unrealistic amount of time teaching myself topics because of how lacking his lectures were. He would get so behind in lectures, we would learn new information on a quiz day. Do not take for CHM113.

Dr. Pingerelli is very nice and very accessible, he tries his best to keep the students engaged but I just think this class is boring and hard to get through for and hour and 45 minutes. He is lenient and very understanding.

I had him for SCE-300, which is a new class for Space Foundations. He was a good professor who knew a lot. The only thing is that sometimes the lecture was boring. But the projects really helped me to learn and were the only homework. Really fun elective class and I'm glad I took it.

Dr.P is very knowledgeable and is able to effectively break down complex topics into easy comprehensible pieces. He keeps lectures entertaining and engaging by sharing personal stores and anecdotes and asking questions. Dr. P is very friendly and willing to answer questions and provide help with assignments.
