Reviews of professor Vesal Dini

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Vesal spent more time talking through wrong answers than right ones, so this course quickly became incredibly confusing. The quiz process could take 2+ weeks due to all the useless components he tried to incorporate, and I spent more time writing about my thought process than doing physics. Thankfully, he's approachable outside of class.

Actually one of the worst professors I have ever encountered. His "active learning" teaching style is deeply flawed and he is very insecure about the way he *makes* us learn. I actively unlearn physics by going to lecture. How he ever was employed here is beyond me -- I cannot stand the man. Please, dear god, do not take a class with him.

Professor Dini is absolutely the worst professor at Tufts. If you are planning on taking his class (1 or 2) for pre-health student requirements, my recommendation is to take a Summer physics course or after grad at a different institution. It's easy to get an A, but you have to put in lots of work hours. If you are taking MCAT, don't take this!!!!!

Professor Vesal actually cares that you will actually learn about the material. He makes it very easy to get a good grade so that the focus can be on learning. He has a collaborative lecture that encourages discussion which is very helpful in understanding the concepts of physics. Honestly one of the best professors at Tufts.

Please do not be fooled by the amount of 5s this man has gotten on rate my prof - knowing Vesal, he probably botted them
