Reviews of professor Matthew Berry

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
LOADED lectures AND daily iclicker quizzes. 2 papers. In-person midterm and final exams, but provides study guides. Can be very overwhelming but Prof. Berry is clearly knowledgeable and passionate about what he teaches and it's evident in his lectures.

PROFESSOR BERRY IS THE MAN!!!!  I do have to say that his lectures are pretty long but his personality does make up for it. I do recommend going to his OH and asking about the exams!!!! He will help you 100% and he won't set you up for failure. There are two essays, midterm and final. exams are worth 15% Clickers where you get the points!!!!

I literally love him. I took MS111 with him and he made it so enjoyable, that I wanted to take another MS class with him. He's super approachable and takes every idea into consideration. He gives you so much feedback on papers, if the class is small, that it really shows you what he's looking for in improvement. He's awesome!

Took NWMEDIA 151AC. Just what was this class. Workload is fine, and the class itself would be decent at best with a good course staff and instructor. But buzzword-heavy, graded by few assignments, impractical curriculum, and grades harshly (brags about a C average for a humanities class?). Do NOT take.

Matt is an amazing lab teacher! He is very nice and understanding if you don't understand something. He also goes through some of the labs which is nice. The pre lab quizzes can be hard so definitely study for them!

Professor Berry is great! I took the class as a non-Media Studies major and really enjoyed it. He clearly cares a lot about providing the best possible education, and I really enjoyed how curated the lectures and reading load were. I didn't love the assignments (discussion posts, 2 semi-formulaic essays, a group project) but lectures were great.

One of my favorite Professors ever. I wish I would have been able to take this course in person and regrettably, missed out on Office Hours, which I heard were really great. He is a truly fantastic lecturer, and his delivery is engaging and makes students excited about the material. It felt like we were learning important and interesting things.

This was for chem 110. If you have a chance to take Matt DO IT, he is a great lab instructor. He reviews the experiments really well and will help you out with no problem if you are stuck or lost during your procedure. He is funny and kind. The pre-lab tests can be very hard so make sure to study for those.
