He is extremely lively. His class is fun and you actually learn. Highly Recommended!
mr. gangji was my teacher in high school, and unfortuneately, i didn't go to queens college. mr. gangji is awesome and caring and if you have a problem, he will almost always be able to help you. plus, his cell no. is 1-800-DIAL-GOD, according to him.:)
Mr. Ganjgi is an execellent professor. He makes learning fun. I thought I wouldn't like physics but I actually do. I hope I can as much fun when I start teaching. He is very helpfull as well
mr. gangji is THE man... i mean, i actually learned stuff from there... like uhm... uh... something is 9.8 m/s^2
Excellent teaching, nice guy, very fair, highly recommended!!!!
gives a lot of curving, drops the lowest grade, gives extra credit for neat notes, it is impossible to get less than B in his class. Best teacher I ever had. He makes phisics fun and you will learn for sure.
Great teacher. He is very enthusiastic about teaching, even if u hate physics he manages to teach in a way that will keep you attentive most of the time and is very fair with homeoworks and grading and in almost all aspects of his class. I highly recomend him.
HE IS SUCH A NICE AND COOL PROFESSOR, I WOULD DEF RECOMMEND HIM IF U WANNA GET UR SCI REQ OUT THE WAY. HE HELPS YOU OUT WITH EXTRA CREDIT, TRUST ME, I WOULD NOT HAVE GOTTEN A 'B" BASED ON MY EXAMS ALONE!
You can't imagine-he gives a lot of curve. He gives review class before the test. He gives chaces to get extra credit. If you bring your homework during final, he will give the point(up to 15pt)Take his class! So you can solve one of LASAR.
the best professor i ever had
He is the absolute best. He helped me out sooo much!!! Without his help I would've failed. He curves and gives a lot of extra credit. He doesn't just give out grades he wants you to learn. Take him!!!!
yoo... Mr. Gangji is currently my hw physics teacher, and like all of you have already said, he's awesome! Great personality, fun classes, teaches very well. He's definately a great teacher and friend.:-)
PROFESSOR GANGHI IS THE HOTTEST AND SWEETEST GUY EVER!!! TAKE HIM IF U NEED THIS CLASS OR NOT!!!!!IT'S WORTH IT JUST TO LISTEN TO HIS ADORABLE BRITISH/EASTERN AFRICAN ACCENT
Professor Gangji is the best. You will love him and learn a lot about physics. He is very fair and makes sure you understand . He is the sweetest nicest professor you will ever take.
Hands down the best teacher ever! Hes the most amazing teacher i have ever had! I actually enjoyed physics and miss the class! I hope one day I am as good a teacher as he is! I totally recommend him! Its an awesome class!!!!!!!!!!!!
I registered for physics 122 without the knowledge that Pro. Ganjgi is teaching it. Let me tell you that it is the best of fate! He is clear, helpfull, funny and the best physics teacher ever. He sticks to conceptual physics more than mathematical; you think it's not what you're used to? Wrong! His tests are great. Enjoy his courses...

I took this class in the summer.The class was the best class ever.Lecture wasnt boring at all,hes actually very funny and he uses alotof demonstrations,always a plus.He does emphasize alot on conceptual physics which made the class evenbetter, itwasnt a"plug in this formula to get an answer".Always goes out of the way to help ex)holds extra classes
He was a very fun professor. Exams were fair - not incredibly easy, but not hard, by far. He encourages questions and makes learning physics fun. The course could have been a little more challenging though. And..ahem....hes HOT.
Professor Gangji is not only an amazing professor, he is an amazing person. He cares about his student's success and goes out of his way to help. His lectures are not boring and the labs are pretty easy. Highly recommend!!!!!
i love this class, i love the prof. He is very knowledgeable and has very good motivational skills. "watt is the SI unit of power?" you'll get this joke if you take this class. i enjoyed this class so much and you will too.
HE IS SO SWEET. ONLY OUT TO HELP HIS STUDENTS, NEVER BORING, ALWAYS HELPFUL. JUST SHOW UP, ACT LIKE YOU CARE, DO THE LABS AND STUDY AND YOU WILL GET AN A. PLUS HE IS A SIGHT FOR SORE EYES!!!!!
The man is a physics God.He really knows his stuff and is passionate about his work. He is a wonderful & understanding person who knows many of us were in there for elementary ed. He was very helpful and cared about all of us. Take this class with him and you might even like physics..
Awesome professor..he's extremely helpful and finds a way to make his lectures interesting.....I'd definitely recommend him
He gives alot of extra credit to anyone who needs it.
he is so nice he tries to help every student in the a lot of fun in his class i like this professor take him you will learn a lot !!!
He is the great professor! He's very passionate about his subject and very dedicated to his students. He will come in on weekends to help you, or any other day you can make it. QC is lucky to have him! Take him if you need to fill a requirement. He's a funny guy and very understanding. Do the work and you'll do fine.
Great guy, wonderful teacher, just absolutely phenomenal... take him you're guaranteed at least a B... and if you study you'll get an A. If you get less than a B you either cheated and got caught or you just got lazy and didnt feel like doing the work.
Great professor, learned alot during the course. He is extremely helpful; if u are having difficulty with a topic he is willing to explain it to u after class. I would recommend him to everyone.
best prof ever, just dont miss class, its a lot of material to cover, but hes even willing to come in on the weekends to review for exams.
He's Greatt. Best Physics Professor you could ever find. He's patient and helpful for those of us who are not physics ppl. Makes class interesting, tho tests are gonna kill all your brain cells.
He's a very patient and knowledgeable teacher. Always willing to explain things again for those of us that don't catch on right away. Covered a lot of material during the summer session - 15.5 chapters out of 18. If you come to class and do all your work, you'll do well in the class. Warning: tests are pretty challenging but fair.
He is by far the best professor QC has ever had. He is always willing to help his students, always makes time for any questions.Explains the material very clearly, only covers what you need to know. Tests are challanging but fair. Study and go to class and you'll do fine.
This professor has it all. Intelligent, funny, kind, willing to help, clear, just great! He made physics interesting and although the class is kind of hard, you will learn a lot. The key to passing this course is to show him that you are trying!
Best Professor Ever!!!! Will help you anytime u need even if its on the weekends... funny as hell, knows class is hard and for education majors, knows u have to pass... Luv this Man!! wish i could take all my classes with him...
NO DOUBT, HE IS THE GREATEST PROFESSOR IN QC. HE MAKES THE LECTURE SO INTERESTING, AND HE WANTS YOU TO LEARN, TO ENJOY THE CLASS.
He is the best one!! Highly recommend to everyone. Even if you don't need it class, take it. You will have the best time in Queens College.
One of the best professors i've ever had. he's very helpful, wants everyone to do well, and does everything he can to make that happen. gives extra credit if needed, has weekend review classes before tests which are extremely helpful. lectures are interesting with demonstrations of the concepts he teaches. take him and you won't regret it!
gives extra credit and review classes out of his own time. his lectures are interesting. he's a nice guy, wants everyone to pass. Just do your best and u'll get at least a B.
He's the BEST teacher!!! He is the nicest guy in the world, and is the most caring person ever! His class is very easy, as long as you come to class. I actually enjoyed coming to class...He is soooooo nice! And the class was definitely not hard!TAKE HIM!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
Professor Ganji is a very nice professor. I was actually shocked to meet someone that is very understanding like him. But sometimes I feel as though his too understanding. I wish he was more assertive. But anywho.. he is a very easy going professor.
The best professor ever! He's sooooo nice and will help you as much as you need it. He makes the class interesting and pleasant. The best!!!!!
Listen be honest with yourself - Physics 122 is not an easy class... but Gangji is AWESOME. GET THE OLD TESTS, and you're set. He repeats questions! He's not bad lookin either.
If you take Physics 121/122 with him, just get his old tests and ur set!! You'll be so happy with your easy A.
you will do extremely well if you get his former tests, i agree. easy A plus hes interesting
Great prof. somewhat leniant, might get boring, not much of a challenging class. but his demos are awesome, he's funny and is caring too. Do all the work, gives extra credit assignments, do them! Do the labs, and you'll be fine.
No Comments
he is totally cool real nice and easy will let you do late home work gives extra credit and brings alot of props to class to make it fun.. if you have to take Phy 001 take it with him...
Great demonstrations tests ar tricky! However do homework assignments because that is where the test comes from. he is very helpful and will help you pass the course if you are struggling!
He was the most interesting, understanding, funny and helpful professor I had at Queens College. He was the BEST! He would take time out of his personal life to have review classes to help the students undertand the material. He was a remarkable professor and I will never forget him.
He is the most amazing teacher I have ever had i wish he could teach all of my class. He will work with you and help you get the grade you need. He is just great and goes out of his way to make sure his students pass. Last semester was a blast
Great Prof! Make hard concepts and theories easy to understand~ But you got to study and do homework~ Make curve and fair grader! Easy A+! Highly Recommand!
Honestly, he is the best professor in the WORLD! im currently still taking him but love him to pieces. He really cares about him students and he is hilarious! He makes hard concepts easy to understand and he relates it to everyday life! he is an intelligent amazing professor. i highly recommend him
Professor Gangji is the best educator I have ever had in my life. He's soo hysterical, SO smart, and understanding. He makes us feel like we can accomplish anything in life and motivates you to be a better person overall. He's a dream. And it doesn't hurt for him that 90% of the class is totally infatuated with him :)
Gangji is the BEST professor ever in the whole entire world!I took him in da summer & he was AMAZING,he helps the students all the time, makes review classes on the weekends, he just loves to helps students,his exams r a little hard though coz PHYSICS 122 is not easy!but if u study & put ur mind into it, u'll get a good grade! love u Gangji:)MUAHHH
JUST AMAZINNNNNNNN!!!!!! I highly recommend him ;) he's so HELPFUL, if u have any question, just go to him n he'll explain it 2 ya so well, he actually tutor students even out of the class and on weekends!!! Miss u Gangji ♥♥, oh and he?s HOTTT!!!
TAKE HIM TAKE HIM TAKE HIM, BEST PROFESSOR EVER.. I hated physics but he made me love it. I still remember half the things he taught. He is AN ACE!.. Completely understanding and will make everything crystal clear.
He is so great! Very understanding and helpful!Highly recommand him!!Sweetest person ever!!!
Great professor and overall great guy. He does everything he can to help his students and to make his class enjoyable. Take any of his classes if you have the opportunity.
Such a charming man-really. Has a way with words but gives tough tests of which hw/recitation problems do not reflect the types of questions on the test. The mult choice questions are tricky and he gives no practice of these types.
Truly the best teacher i ever had. He does everything to help his students. I actually thought about taking unnecessary classes just to get him again. Explained physics easily and clearly with in-class demonstrations. It actually made sense to me. Will miss you gangji
THE BEST, MOST HELPFUL, MOST UNDERSTANDING TEACHER EVER!!! Physics may be challenging, but with Professor Gangji, you don''t have to worry . He is one professor who really means it when he says "DO YOUR BEst & YOU'LL GET A GOOD GRADE". If he sees you trying (before class meetings or email) you'll get an A. Offer help on weekends w/cookies & snacks:
Had him for high school AP Physics. Words can't describe the quality of his teaching. He honestly cares about the progression of his students in and out of his classroom. If you don't take a course with him somewhere in your lifetime, I pity you. He is above and beyond any teacher I've ever even heard of. God bless that man with all he deserves.
One of, if not the, clearest teachers I have had in my life. His class is enjoyable, his tests are fair, and he will help you at as much as you need if you're willing to put in the effort. Definitely recommended.
Definitely recommend this professor. One the best professors in QC. Every helpful and does anyting that he can to make sure that students pass. Very knowledgeable of the subject and explains it clearly. His exams are fair and gives reviews before the exam and posts review sheets. Has a good sense of humor. Take him if u want to pass.
one of the nicest prof. ever will help you is there weekends for extra help. you will pass if you put in the effort. i was thinking of dropping on first day soooo glad i did not. Very fair and cares about students.
best physics professor ever. his experiments are really funny and he MAKES sure you understand everything. the only thing that sucks is that class is sometimes boring. gangji is extremely helpful and nice. sometimes, hes even taken advantage of just cuz he is nice. gives curves on tests and extra credit. loves his students!! TAKE HIM
I absolutely adore this man. He's so helpful and truly loves his student. He made me hate science a little less. I love him!!
I LOVE LOVE LOVE professor gangi. he is EXTREMLEY useful. is there should be a best professor award for queens college, he definately should get onoe.
Professor Gangi is by far the best teacher ive ever met in my whole life. He genuinly cares about his students and does not believe in letting anyone fall behind. As long as you do the work he gives you, you will do well in this class. he makes boring material funny, interesting, and easy to remember. I hope he never stops teaching!
major hottie and nicest guy ever <3
he is the best professor ever, he wont let you fail if you talk to him. even if you get a 40 on his midterms, just go to him and show your face and ask for help, he is the MOST approchable professor i have met, very nice, workload is not a lot and he makes the class fun. i have never had a class which i stop everything im doing and run in excitment
Simply the BEST PROFESSOR EVER!!!!!!!!I will highly recommend him
MAKES PHYSICS FUN! He makes the lessons informative and fun. The tests have review sheets and formulas r provided at test. if u don't do well he looks for ways to help you so he can boost ur grade up. VERY APPROACHABLE! TAKE HIM EVEN IF PHYSICS IS THE LAST THING YOU WANT TO TAKE IT IS WORTH UR TIME WITH HIM.
He is one of those people who just radiates. You can tell how passionate he is about his work and about his students. He is funny, charming, and an overall great guy. He is extremely helpful and bends over backwards to see you succeed. He is also nice on the eyes, if you know what I mean ;) I could watch him lecture all day...
Very easy! Better take this professor because he teaches very well! Also, his HW assignments are ridiculously easy that everyone can take from online!
He is an amazing Professor and so passionate about physics and teaching. Concepts are definitely not easy but he will guide you and walk you through the semester. He has inspired me in so many ways because I am an elem ed major. There are just no words to express how much i've learned from him and through out the semester.
He's the best! Take him!!! Very helpful and promises to help you through physics
There are no words to describe my gratitude and appreciation for Prof. Ganji, he is one of kind and the best professor I've had since I started at the college. He is helpful and extremely cooperative. This was definitely not an easy course but he just made it fun and worthwhile. He's charming and has a great smile A+ teacher!
If you actually want to learn physics take him. He is passionate about his work and genuinely wants his students to succeed. It's a hard class but he makes it more understandable with his demonstrations and explanations. Great person and amazing teacher.
I took this guy for physics 103 for computer science, he is one of a kind, TAKE HIM, even if your exams are all failures, if you go talk to him, he can still help you out with your grade,TAKE HIM, RARE PROFESSOR!!!
Best professor you will ever have. Hand down the best person you will ever meet. This person has done more for my life than I can relate.
I don't how to express my words for this professor. He is such a sweetheart. It is impossible to graduate without taking Prof. Gangji. Hands down for him! HE'S THE BEST!!!
Professor Ganji is AMAZING! I'm telling you he makes physics so fun and interesting. I didn't want to take this class but it's manditory for my major and he makes it worth while. I haven't missed one class yet!
GREAT PROFESSOR!!! he loves teaching and he wants people to understand the concept. he's great! if he sees you are trying and asking questions, he will help you boost your grade. he's a great professor, he's funny, and a sweet heart. RECOMMEND HIM TRULY!
GREAT PROFESSOR. he really cares about his students and his lectures are engaging and interesting. Take him. It's a joy.
very good professor, out of all the physics professors out there in queens, he is the best.. tough exam, but you can do good just going to class and understanding the material
Mr. Gangji is the best. It is rare to find Professors who are SO determined to help their students succeed, and I have seen just that in him. He clarified so many of my tough subjects and even stayed late, and offered extra hours of assistance to help. He's raised the bar for all other classes I am/will be taking. Thank you Mr. Gangji!!!
Extremely helpful. Willing to go out of his way to help students. A lot of work, but I can never complain that it is unfair in any way.Tests are long and make you think hard, yet they are extremely fair. If you put the work in there is no reason why anyone should get a bad grade in this class. He is also very funny and entertaining.
his albert einstein watt is power lecture was legendary
Hands down, one of the hardest working professors in all sciences at queens college. He's a dream to learn & delve into the world of physics. If you truly want to learn, love and understand physics, whether its a medical school requirement or pure math requirement (my case), he is it! Do ALL of the hw, ask questions, WORK HARD and you will do fine!
He is by far THE best prof I've ever had. He's determined to help his students succeed. He actually cares about his students and will do his best to help you if he sees that you care. He keeps class interesting. Physics is a very difficult subjects but with prof Gangji it can be fun learning it.I went from hating physics to loving it because of him
Rarely do you find a professor that truly cares about his students understanding the material in front of them, and bends over backwards to help you in any which way possible. A few of my friends have had him as a HS teacher and they tell me how awesome he is. Gangji is one of a kind, and I have yet to meet anyone who has not liked him. TAKE HIM.
Gangji is the best teacher I have ever had! I took Intro to Physics in the summer. He teaches so well, he helps so much, and he makes it interesting. This is how every teacher should be. He challenges you, yet he fosters success and learning. Just a flat-out righteous and awesome teacher who should be emulated by all other professors.
One the best teachers I have ever had. He has so much respect for his students and truly does everything he can to help you excel. If you are afraid of physics don't be, he will make the subject fun and very interesting. If you have the opportunity to, take his class, especially if you are an EECE major!
The absolute best professor at queens college. Very kind and helpful for anything and everything a student might need. Always there to provide extra help and answer all questions. He is also very understanding and makes learning physics exciting. Recommended to all students who need to take physics. Seriously a great professor!
He is by far the most passionate, loving professor Queens college has!! He is AMAZING!! Yes you work for your grade but he will work with you to get the highest grade possible. The only way to fail is by cheating so if you don't cheat you won't fail. Make sure you do your online homework, clicker questions, labs, attend class, and the lesson plan.
He is an awesome professor who really cares about his students. He does a lot of hands on demonstrations and passes everyone as long as you try and don't cheat. He made the class fun and yes don't expect to not put in work and get a good grade. Physics is a hard subject.
Great Prof. He teaches the material with passion and lots of models. There are HW due regularly that he will help you with, though you should try to do it yourself even if it means you get it wrong, Its not worth that much to get a couple of mistakes, so don't use the answer book. 3MC tests,and they are hard but doable. I think he curves a bit too.
The best prof in QC I've had. He goes above and beyond to help his students and will not ignore your effort, he really cares. Do the HW, come to class, be honest and do your best and he will make the class interesting, fun, and help you every way he can. Made my summer semester much easier and less stressful. Just a great guy.
Hands down the best physics prof. in the department. Explains everything clearly. Will go that extra mile to make sure everybody understands a topic. He even held extra classes on SUNDAYS. However expect to put in hours and hours studying, physics is not an easy subject. His exams are hard but if you study hard they are do-able.
Really help and care for the student's learning. Always available and willing to help and assist. -Very few instructors like this guy.
Amazing professor hands down. Cares about his students. Will do anything for you so you can get the grade you need. Makes the class fun and educational at the same thing. All I can say is if you ever see his name for a class take him and you will not regret it. Best professor at the school.
One of my favorite professors at QC, he is extremely helpful, friendly and nice. He'll go out of his way to help you and make sure you pass his class. I loved going to his classes! Highly recommended!
THE BEST PROFESSOR AT QUEENS COLLEGE. The material is boring but he makes it fun and interesting. An example of an amazing professor. He is caring and will help you with whatever you need. Never have met a better professor my entire college career.
He is one of the best professors I've had at this school. He makes a dreaded topic interesting and instead of making the class easy, he helps you learn the material.
he's going to make you do hundreds of "extra credit" assignments but none of them help. He won't read a single word of them. He gave a lot, and he makes it seem like he wants to help you get an A but in the end, he wont read a single extra paper. He'll see if you did the test, hw and if you bought a clicker and thats it. dont bother
If you're a straight A student, this class might mess up your gpa. He tries to help as much as possible, gives extra credit, gives study sessions and lets you bring in notes to the test. the test aren't easy but he helps and you'll get a B if you do the clicker, hw and test. Dont stress the class, trust me.
HE'S MY FAVORITE PERSON IN THE WHOLE ENTIRE WORLD!! HE LITERALLY HELPS ME WITH EVERYTHING. <3 <3 <3
AMAZING TEACHER!! Answers e-mails promptly and clearly. PHENOMENAL teacher. Says he doesnt curve but his witch doctor always has a way to help your grade. TAKE PHYSICS WITH NO ONE ELSE BUT HIM! BEYOND THE GREATEST TEACHER!! MAKES PHYSICS FUN AND ENJOYABLE!!! EXAMS EXTREMELY FAIR!!!! TAKE HIM FOR EVERY OPPORTUNITY.
One of the best professors at QC, truly cares about his students and wants them to do well. Took it summer session, which was intense. Takes over your lives for 6 weeks but worth it. He sprinkle extra points to pull up your grade with extra assignments and review sheet :)
He is best professor I ever met in my life, best professor in QC. I took him on summer, he even came on Sunday to review exam for us, very lovely and kind professor, he brings bagels and candys for everyone during the exams. He made all boring topic very easy, and very funny jokes.He is very good at making students think!!! Hope he will teach 122
Dr. Gangji is simply such a good person who understands physics on a very deep level. Unfortunately, those who understand physics on the level he does, cannot teach. Gangji, however, goes far and beyond what he is expected to do, but by no means is this an easy class. I couldn't wait to come to lecture every day with Dr. Gangji. Thank You
Queens College's most amazing professor. Gangji's lectures are brilliant, entertaining, and engaging. He will go out of his (and I really mean it) to help his students. His tests are challenging, so you definitely have to work the grade. He's also one of the most understanding professors I've ever had. TAKE HIM. It will change your life.
BEST PROFESSOR ON CAMPUS!
such a sweet and friendly professor. Always ready to take time out and help you. lots of jokes in class and makes things simple enough to understand. wish more professors were like him. And his exams arent as easy as you would think so studying and doing the assignments is a must. It was pleasure to take this class!
Professor gangji is my favorite professor hands down at Queens a College and I don't even like anything related to the sciences. He has taught me so much and is there to help all the time. He even comes in on Sunday's and if you go to his study sessions, you'll understand the material a lot better. I would take his class again!
AMAZING PROFESSOR!!!!! physics is a tough subject but gangji teaches it well and is there to help. Pay attention in the lectures and do the homework assignments. 3 exams and homework assignments are done online for each chapter.
This guy is amazing. The class is difficult. But he makes it fun. His lectures are really good. Great attitude. Helpful. He will scare you first day of class. Tests are easy but long. Very fair grader. Curved the class by 12 a grade. C average. Gave me B- for participation and online work.
amazing. period
The nicest most understanding professor I've ever had. He really cares about everyone passing his class. Not my major so this was a difficult class but he made the material clear and even if you still didn't get, he just wants you to try and he'll pass you. On top all the qualities that do matter in a professor, he is hilarious and fun. Take him!
I really enjoyed his class. Very knowledgeable. A difficult subject but he makes it fun. He really goes out of his way to help his students. There is honestly nothing bad to say about him. Even if you're not a physics major he has the most inspirational talks with his class. A great person overall. Really deserves to be recognized for his work.
He's an amazing professor! He genuinely cares about his students and does a phenomenal job in teaching physics.
His lectures are extremely engaging, his explanations are crystal clear, and his demonstrations are often quite amusing. He gives some clicker questions for participation but I still managed an A+ even though I got a few of those wrong. His lectures and the homework combined made the exams seem easy even though with other professors it wouldn't be.
Prof. Gangji is one of the best professors I've ever had. I had extreme anxiety going into physics but now that the class is over I actually miss it. He gives many opportunities to get a good grade such as regular homework and clicker questions. His explanations and demonstrations made physics understandable and enjoyable.
Gangji is great professor. Physics is by no means an easy subject and he tries to help his students as best as possible. Make sure you do all the online assigned hw. He lets you make reference sheets for exams and gives you extra credit for doing that. He held some Sunday sessions for both classes to review hw. Wish I could take him for PH204.
TAKE HIM IF YOU CAN! This professor is amazing! I wish more professors taught like him! His lectures are fun and interesting. He does a lot of demonstrations on topics you are learning. He is very understanding and always willing to help. Go to his study sessions! It'll help.
He's a great professor! Really cares if student understands the concept instead of just memorizing for an exam. Online assignments; in-class clickers; and three exams
The best, hilarious and nicest professor in the world! He understands that physics is a hard subject so he tries his best to help you get the grade you need. Do all the work he assigns and he'll help you out. He made a difficult subject very interesting, does study sessions for exams. Would 100% recommend.
He's an awesome professor that's really passionate about his work. He's funny in class, engages with students who want to engage with him, despite him having little time for it, and loves to make his students suffer (for their benefit of course). But this class is challenging, not because of the professor but because it's physics, so be ready.
Professor Gangji was amazing! He cares about his students and takes time to make sure you understand the material. Very patient and caring. Makes you less nervous about taking Physics. If you're taking this class for conceptual physics 14, definitely take him, you will not regret it !!!
You must be on top of your homework and even if you don't do so well on exams push through because he really helps you get to where you need to be. He is extremely understanding and his lectures are fun to witness. It is a class you will always remember!
If you are required to take physics TAKE THIS PROFESSOR YOU WILL NOT REGRET IT. It is so rare to come across a professor as enthusiastic and inspirational as professor Gangji. (btw I hated science but he made me love it) I think Queens College needs to recognized they have a unique person on there hands, and better never let him go !
He is an easy going professor and actually helps you pass the course, rather then just ignoring you (like some professors do). He makes it so much fun! Coming into this class i was so intimidated of the material and what to expect but walking out, i understood the material better and enjoyed the class overall! Take him!!
Amazing Professor! I'm not a physics major and was dreading the class, but he makes you feel confident and comfortable from the first day. Down to earth and so sweet! I wish I understood physics more because of how passionate he is about it. If physics was my major I would take him again. He just wants to see you try your best and he'll help you.
Gangji is by far the best professor I've ever had. I actually enjoyed physics, which I had to take as a requirement. I feel like I gained a real scientific literacy by taking this class. His demonstrations are awesome. His tests are difficult though.
Professor Gangji is the type of instructor that students hope to land. He is caring, extremely passionate about physics, and gives a crystal clear lecture. While his exams were considered difficult by most and I personally did not enjoy his humor, I highly recommend everyone to take his class. The man is a prince!
He's so so caring, understanding and very educated in Physics. When taking Physics this is who you want to take. He's so understanding. His main goal is to truly pass you. Took him this summer and got an A. Truly is an amazing Professor and he's got the perfect personality to go alone with it. Super funny and makes sure you understand everything.
There arent enough characters for me to describe the greatness of this professor. He is so caring and genuine and he really wants his students to do well. He is a great lecturer who really knows his physics inside out. But the thing that stands out is that he really loves teaching and he wants everyone to succeed. Do whatver you can to take him.
He makes my day. He is just awesome.
This is my 1st rating & I chose to do so because he is THAT worth it. I took him over the summer&despite the intensity of the material, he provided clarity in his lectures, humor in the applications of physics to everyday life & visual reference with in-class experiments. He is 24/7 willing to help & the best professor I had taken so far in my life
This man, he is everything !!!! He is exceptionally talented at demonstrating even the most difficult concepts for anyone to understand. Incredibly talented and enthusiastic, this kind of energy is refreshing and a quality so necessary for engaging us students. I don't know what we did to deserve him, a true professor.
The best teacher I have ever had in my entire life. He reminded me how amazing and awesome the learning experience can be.
God bless this man with so much happiness and succes. Such an amazing soul. Def hands down best Professor. Teaches you more than physics.
Though physics is a tough subject, this professor made it understandable. Professor Gangji understands that not every student taking this class as a science major and really does work with you to make sure you get that B+ if you're an education major. Beware: His "jokes" can get a bit overbearing and he digresses a lot during lectures.
He's great and really goes out of his way to help all his students. Class is interesting and on top of that he's hilarious. HW can be time consuming, but just keep practicing and reviewing it and it will be a great prep for his exams.
Professor Gangji has a heart of gold. He understands that physics is a hard subject and will do anything in his power to help you pass. Best way to do well in this class is attend lecture (sit close to the front) and take mastering physics as serious as possible (no googling answers). Only way to fail is to get caught cheating on an exam.
It's good to be instructed by someone who actually loves what he or/ she is instructing. Professor Gangji welcomes conversation and uses the interaction to help guide your thought to the right concept. Uses different methods from experiments to instant quizzes (clickers) to gauge student's understanding. Should complete more examples from a to z
Prof. Gangji is AMAZING. I wish I had him for every class. He is caring, funny and a very intelligent man. He presented the material in a very fun way. Used a lot of examples: lasers, toys, electricity, videos. He held Sunday help sessions, not mandatory. He truly is an amazing professor; the best. He even brought us candy on final exam day.
Gangji is one in a million. His teaching style might be all over the place, but he tries to help us visualize all concepts. Lectures are long, but informative and you never leave grumpy. Just do your best, go to as many Sunday help sessions (bc they actually help), do the hw, and answer clicker q's and you will do fine.
If you're planing on earning good grades. Please take him, he is the best professor in physics department. Try your best and he will see your effort. Best of luck.
This professor has a beautiful soul. Be good to him he is so sweet. He will take care of you do not worry take him he will make sure you learn. Experiments and allows you to work for a better grade. sUPER FUNNY- MAKES YOU WANT TO GO TO CLASS.
A M A Z I N G. Do anything you can to get into this class. He is an absolute gem. He cares for each and everyone of his student. Make sure you go to class in order to understand the material, you don't have to buy the textbook but there is online hw every week. Tests are extremely fair. His lectures are amazing and hilarious!!
Words can't describe how much of a great person he is. The amount of respect I have for him is infinite. A true human/professor/teacher/mentor. Every egotistical & brainiac nasty attitude CS professor should take notes on how to teach & be caring from this man. Humble & intelligent. May the universe bless him with good health & a long life.
I took professor gangji during the summer session, he is such an amazing person, with the most kindest, caring and understanding soul I ever met!. Despite the fact physics is a tough course, he made it so fun that you would not want to miss a class. His lectures are super fun, just answer all the clicker questions and do the online homework!
I've never met another Prof. like this man. He is funny, caring and helpful. He has a wealth of information: shares willingly to aide others to success. You know that you can come to him with any problems with the material. In the exams he tells you if you have a problem call on him, he will help. Summers are best, he helps on Sundays & after class
the best teacher in QC, he cares about his student, makes the material interesting and fun to the student, it is my second time to take Physics one Physics used to be just calculation, math formula and boring science to me, but prof Gangji changes my idea about physic Now, I always try to think about the physics behind things happing around me
Professor Gangji is the best professor I ever had. He's inspirational and cares for every student and takes a greater roll of being a mentor. He is hilarious and makes class as interesting as possible. Besides for being a phenomenal teacher, he is very fare and reasonable when it comes to the final grade.
Hes the best professor ever. Queens college needs to hire professor like him instead of professors who dont know anything. If he taught computer science classes, life would much easier. He gives lots of chances so you can pass the class with a very good grade. I had a wonderful semester with this professor.
I found physics so hard honestly I loved the professor so much but I just could never grasp the material of physics. It still confuses me till this day. But hes a phenomenal professor and dont worry if u dont do well on the tests I promise u he will make sure u pass with a B or better. I failed all the tests and got an A-.
I have never met another professor that cares about the student's knowledge rather than if you can swat for the exam. He truly wants students to grasp the material to take back to the young minds they are going to teach.
HE IS THE BEST OF THE BEST AND YOU WON'T FIND ANYONE BETTER THAN THIS SUPERHERO!
he is an awesome professor. he teach through fun. he will demonstrate and break things down to show you why it works like that. he is very supportive. homeworks are online, must do but he is easy on deadlines. grading policy is fair. if you are above average is an A.
Wow ! He is the most caring and awesome professor I have come across in college. I an currently taking this class and have nothing but good to say about him. All future educators should take him and his Physics class! I now understand why Physics is needed in my career path. He is so caring for your self being and grades! He will work with you!!!
hes very understanding about other problems you may have going on. hes acknowledges it and tries his absolute best to work with you. BUT you have to remember its a science class so theres a mastering homework website thatll feel like the death of you but just keep trying. use hints and dont just give up and ask for the answer.
Also, wanted to add that dont let the fact that its a science class scare you, the way he teaches is phenomenal. he uses slides for the technical students that want to take heavy notes and he also doesn't just read the slide. he talks about the topic and elaborates for students who learn better verbally. He makes u love physics just as much as him.
Extremely good professor! Cares a lot about his students and wants them to pass!
AMAZING professor! Take him if you get the chance. He wants everyone to pass and does his best in helping you do so. Very sweet and funny.
This professor is one of the most respected ones at QC. Agreed. But his teaching style is very disorganized. He taught two chapters in one night, and you have to know a lot of the lectures in the exam. Even though you fail, you can get a good grade. Sure! But by fail(ing), it means you still have to be above average, which aint easy. Dont like it
He tries his hardest to help you understand the material. Gives a lot of demonstrations on how the material being taught applies in the real world. One of the best professors I've had. Take him if you can.
Professor Gangji is one of the best professors I've taken. He actually made me love Physics (not kidding). He's extremely passionate and really doesn't want you to stress over your grades. He prefers that you understand the material since it deals with everyday life. Loved going to class! I will be bothering him when I get my own class! LOL
Took him for PH 103 Fall 16', the guy's the greatest of all time. You're not going to find anybody more caring than Gangji. The man holds Sunday sessions just to help you out a little more. Cmon, who else does that? You'll pass if you put effort. Most professors TALK about helping you out but Gangji actually helps us and his ACTIONS show this.
This professor is average. He gives out a lot of work but he will meet you halfway. However in class he gets in the habit of using only examples to teach the concepts. This class has a lot of concepts. Plus he does not want any students to fail which is great. Remember to talk to him.
Hes amazing and very funny. There are about 4-5 exams with 30 questions. Pay attention in class and you will definitely pass with a B+ or above. He does curve the grade at the end and never wants anyone to fail.
This man is a physics LEGEND!!! He is super funny and actually cares about your grades. Do your best, and don't expect this class to be easy, because he makes you work and understand the class. Otherwise, he is an awesome dude overall! Do everything in your power to take him!!
God bless this man's soul.
Professor Gangji was by far the best Professor I had at Queens College. Took him in the summer, so the workload is heavy and tests are once a week. However he helps get everyone at a C level if you do everything you're expected to. He is hilarious and such a caring person. Take him for sure you wont regret it.
Gangji is literally heaven sent. The only way to fail this class is to cheat. And its true. Be honest, do the HWs, put in all the effort and the least you will get is a B regardless of your test grades. Just take him, you will NOT regret it at all. He is also the funniest man Ive ever met!!!!! I wish he taught every class I have to take.
The most amazing professor I have ever had. Not only did he make me want to become a teacher but he teaches the importance of how a grade does not define you. He makes it clear that he wants physics to be fun, he wants you to understand the concepts and he wants you to believe in yourself! He will do everything possible to lift you up to a B.
The absolute best Professor I have ever had in all my years of education since I was born. He cares more about the person and their determination/passion for the material rather than just handing out grades. Even if you dislike physics, he makes it interesting and will inspire you with his passion for trying his best to help you and care about you.
He is a true gem. You cannot find better than this man. He truly cares about each and everyone of his students and wants you to actually enjoy the subject rather than stress about your grades. My favorite professor by far. Take this class even if you arent going in to teaching and need a science credit. You will learn a lot.
The most fairest professor of them all. Im begging everyone to take him. The best in the whole entire world. PLZ LISTEN TO ME GUYS!!
He is an angel. I cannot stress what an amazing human being he is. Take this professor you will not regret it.
Professor. Gangli is one of the most nicest science professors I have ever encounter at QC. Hes always willing to take his time to help each and every student, and he is very inspirational. If you take him you wont regret it.
Professor Gangji is an absolute gem. He cares so much about his students and his job. I've never seen another professor, teacher, or educator of any kind put in more effort than he does every single week. He deserves the world. Don't ever worry about your grade, even if you fail the tests, I promise he'll do everything in his power to help you out.
Professor Gangji is literally THE BEST! He cares about his students so much and does everything in his power to help his students out. Although the material is extremely difficult, he cares more about the effort you put into the class, so show effort!! Attend the study sessions and do the online assignments!!
He is one of the best professor at Queens College. Worth taking him. Do the pearson hw regularly and he wont let you down. Easily available through email or outside class. 3 exams two midterms and final. And curves a lot. You ll never regret taking him.
I have no idea how I got an A- in his class because I was getting 40-50's on all 3 exams. Don't skip class and make sure you complete all the pearson hw even if you get most of the questions wrong because I think he curves you based on how much effort you put in. This man is an amazing professor that genuinely cares about students.
Kind, funny, and informative. He goes out of his way to make sure you understand what he is teaching, but cares about your workload as a student. I even found myself looking forward to go to his classes, which not something I can say for almost any class I have taken. Hands down, Ganji is one of the best professors that QC has.
Gangji is the man!! Hell help you as much as he can. He is the sweetest professor at QC! He puts so much time and effort into the class and to help students. Although Gangji is hilarious during lecture the material is a huge drag. Lectures are long and he never cancels class.
Dr. Gangji is a great human being!! He's one of the best physics professor at Queens College. The professor is very funny and that's why the class is full of entertainment as well. His way of teaching is beyond exceptional.
I still dont understand why he doesnt have 5 rating yet????!!!!????? Best best best professor ever. Trust me. Do everything in ur power to take this class even if u hate physics.
He is the most amazing professor you will ever take. He cares so much about his students and will do anything to help if need be. I would take him as a professor a million times over if I could!
Take him! Thats all i have to say! he such are caring, funny, smart, wonderful man! Don't take advantage of his kindness!
I wish he taught every class in QC. Id gladly take his class over and over again. He is truly a gem and speaks very clearly. I hope that anyone who can is lucky enough to have him as a teacher. Amazing and hilarious dude. Definitely recommend.
Professor gangji is the most amazing and caring professor i have ever had. He will go above and beyond to make sure you do well as long as you dont cheat. He gives 6 exams so one doesnt affect the grade too much. Lots of homework but thats how you study for exams since its the same style so its more helpful than annoying. He is a sweetheart!!
Trust me when i tell you this - TAKE HIM. If you have to take a physics class, take HIM. Even if you suck, he will do everything he can to bring you at a B level and he curves grades based on participation. He cares so much and doesnt want anyone to fail. I wouldnt say an easy A but definitely an easily doable A if you put in the work!
This man is a literal gem. He is so caring and treats you like a human. He makes sure that you understand the material and even provides extra time outside of class to help you even more. This man cares so much about you and your grades and will do everything he can in his power to help you get a grade above a B. Take him!!
He is literally the best. Cares so much and will go out of his way for his students. I would take him for every class I have if I could. Literally the best professor at QC. I never leave reviews but I had to for him bc he is just amazing, pure and genuine. Starting a fan club for him as soon as I can.
I wish every professor were like Professor Gangji. He makes it so that you are enjoying the subject/class while learning at the same time which is exactly what any teacher should be doing. In a perfect world we'd have more professors like him! He is a truly inspiring human being.
He is awesome. He truly wants everyone in his class to do well. He will be able to push dates back if you have any problems. I wish he taught other subjects, because there are not a lot of professors like him. He is so funny in all his lessons. There was not one day, I did not laugh from his comments. 100% recommend anyone who needs physics.
He is the best teacher Ive had so far at QC. Super fair, super understanding. He really wants you to do well and enjoy learning physics. Dont get me wrong you still have to work at getting good grades but he will 100% give you options on how to make it easier for you.
He is the best professor I had so far at Queens College. He is very good with communications and wants all his students to succeed. He wants you to feel comfortable with the lectures/lessons. He is very fair with grading, so if you have a problem, he try his best to help you. 100% recommended teacher!
THE BEST PROFESSOR EVER!!!!!!! TAKE HIM. YOU WILL NOT REGRET IT, SO CARING AND MAKES PHYSICS AS EASY AS POSSIBLE
He has restored my faith in education. This man is truly a gem. Just enroll in his class, you wont regret it
This professor is amazing he is so caring and funny. He cares more about if you are learning rather than what grade you get on tests or homework. He explains things until you understand and will go over anything that may be unclear. He makes so many jokes it is hard to get bored in his class.
Professor Gangji is a super sweet, kind, caring and funny professor! He makes sure students understand the material and also holds help sessions for students. He's super funny and a great professor! Definitely take this professor for physics14 and you'll enjoy it very much!
I was so intimidated by taking a Physics course this semester, but this professor is an absolute gem. He is so patient and understanding and truly cares about his students. He really goes out of his way to help you learn the material and to do your best. Wish he taught more classes.
I was so intimidated by taking a Physics course this semester, but this professor is an absolute gem. He is so patient and understanding and truly cares about his students. He really goes out of his way to help you learn the material and to do your best. Wish he taught more classes.
Just do yourself a favor and take him! He is the definition of what teaching should be about! He is there to help you and be their for you no matter what! Truly a blessing to have. Had around 6 assignments and 3 tests, nothing too crazy and he helps you every step of the way. Just take him!!!!!
The lecture is great I give 5 and easy, but the lab instruction is crazy to understand. I don't why does a physic can be so hard to understand. It's just waste my time to go over the instruction 10 times and still don't understand it.
Professor Al Karim Gangji is a well respected, hilarious, caring, inspirational and kindhearted Professor. He makes sure that students who take his class understand the material well and also makes sure students do well on the exams and homework. He's an amazing Professor and I still stay in touch with him by email! He's super sweet and kind!
Could not recommend this professor more, but be careful about the online lab with his class. Definitely suggest taking this class in person, not online. That being said, this professor is a once in a lifetime professor. He is passionate, caring, and willing to work with his students. He wants you to pass, and will help you however he can.
This man is an amazing person all-around. He ties in a lot of relevancies around the world while still keeping classes hilarious and engaging. That being said, its still physics, which can be difficult for anybody. Take notes, do the hw and study! and dont be afraid to communicate with him if you are having any difficulties in class. A+ professor
Lord Al-Karim Gangji is the greatest being to ever touch the surface of the Earth. If there was a tier list for all QC professors, there would have to be a "Gangji" tier above S+ just for him. His teaching is impeccable and is the nicest person you'll ever meet! I swear he wants you to pass his class just as much you do. All hail Gangji the Great!!
One of the bests professors in my life. I wish I could have him for every class. Take him. His explanations are very clear he made physics very easy for our class. I love him!
He is the best professor I have ever had, I will miss him very much as a professor. He is super understanding and his students understanding the material is most important to him. He makes a super hard and miserable class into a fun one!
Best teacher at QC and deserves a raise
Hands down one of the best professors at QC, a smart & caring person who even starts class early to do practice probs with students who don't understand the topic. I took this class during Summer '21 & while the pace of content did move v. fast, prof Gangji did his best to accommodate for the speed of the class & the tough content we were learning.
He is an amazing human being!! Makes learning a difficult subject a joy. He genuinely cares about his students.If you are afraid of physics with him leave all your fears out the door. Get ready for a fun educational class. If all educators where like him going to class would be joyful. He even made the labs fun! Make sure to take lab with him.
I know that I was divinely blessed by this man. He is the most caring professor I have ever encountered. He wants you to succeed! Physics is hard, but he makes it so engaging and fun. He is more than accommodating and all you have to do is ask for help, and he's got you. Take him!! You won't regret it!!
He is not only an amazing professor but an amazing human. His love for teaching shows though his lectures and he truly wants you to succeed. It is so hard to find a professor like him. Do your part of the work and he will always be willing to help you. 10/10 person
Professor Gangji is very considerate and will do anything in his power to help you boost your grade. He's also very well spoken and makes sure to answer all questions to the best of his ability. He has a very good understanding of the material that he lectures and explains it very well.
Professor Gangji was so incredibly kind and made the material much easier to understand. He answers all questions thoroughly and made lecture fun. If you need physics definitely take it with Ganji!
Professor Gangji is without a doubt the best! A gem @ QC!. I was always afraid of physics and avoided it, but Professor dispelled that fear; he made learning physics so fun! He only wants the best for his students, and to see them succeed. No amount of words can describe the greatness of this Professor, you have to be in his class to experience it.
Professor Gangji!!!! The only physics professor you need to take at QC! I had the pleasure of taking him for both lecture and lab. Super fun yet informative lectures and labs. Physics can be daunting but he makes it enjoyable. Honestly just try in his class and participate, you'll love it!
great professor, he will work with you to make sure you understand and don't feel pressure. I didn't get the best exam grades and still got an A. Don't cheat and he'll be your best friend.
If you can take him, take him!!!!!!! I promise you he makes his lectures fun!
I had Karim in high school and he was the BEST. I did some work and just came into class and enjoyed the vibes and it was the best class hands down. We had amazing talks bout life and I was always happy to see him. Dr. God, if you ever see this, you're my most favorite ever teacher ever and Im gonna miss HS cuz of you. walking w my man. ill cya
He is an amazing human being!! Makes learning a difficult subject a joy. He genuinely cares about his students. If all educators were like him learning would be much better, Some teachers should learn a lot from him; He is a very good example to follow as a teacher. We are going to miss him. I thank Professor Gangji very much.
I took him back in the Spring 2022 but just now got around to rating him, and all I can say is I loved him! He is by far the best professor I have ever taken at QC! If you ever get the chance to take him, do so! If I could have him for every class I would!
He is literally amazing, i hated physics but thanks to him he made it easy to understand and he made sure that students succeed in his classroom if you do what are you are asked in his classroom he will pass you. RECOMMEND 10/10 THE CLASS WAS SO FUN!!!
Professor Gangji is an amazing professor. He is literally heaven sent. I'm very grateful that I had a professor like him. He's one of a kind. I'll never forget him. He teaches students not only about physics but life lessons too. If you're having trouble with anything don't be afraid to go to him. He very understanding and he ALWAYS keeps his word.
I love Professor Gangji so much. Not only is he an amazing professor but he's an amazing human being. He's so funny and caring and wants the best for his students always. His lectures are really helpful and fun. He's the best professor I've had so far at Queens College. I'm going to miss this class, to be honest. Highly recommend!
I just wish all professors were like him. He is a wonderful person who genuinely cares about his students. He is the ideal professor, more than you could ask for.
If you can choose any prof for physics-or even any class, please try your hardest to get him. He makes learning so much fun and is willing to help you in every way. I wish all profs were like him. HE IS THE BEST! He tries his hardest to spread positivity and we need more like him.
Man I'm so glad I listened to the reviews for him because he was an amazing professor! Makes lectures fun and truly cares for his students. This is how most professors at any college should be and how us as future educators should strive to become!
Not an easy course, but he definitely puts an effort into making the concepts easier to understand. Several non-cumulative exams throughout the semester, some online. Exam questions are related to the ones found at the end of each chapter in the text. Homework through Pearson. Attendance is mandatory and marked (counts as participation).
Pretty laid-back professor for this course. Provides ample instruction, feedback, and is always around to help. No exams, but there are worksheets that are needed to be completed by the end of class. Attendance is mandatory - allows one unexcused absence.
Guys, please take him. he is the best person and teacher i ever met. i got a +A and he knew i was hard working, he is very understanding and if you just show you care.. he will bless up. i failed every exam and quiz, i got 40/100 on midterm and final, but i got a +A in the class.
All I have to say is that he's the best, you must take him. He helps all his students to pass. I wish every professor was as caring as Gangji.
I never write reviews but I'm convinced Gangji is the best professor in CUNY, even the whole world. Physics is a hard course, you can't escape that, but this professor isn't here to make your life miserable, like many stem professors. Never thought I'd miss a hard class like this, but I will because of him. Gangji for president 2024.
Please trust me when I say this! This is the most caring and best professor in Queens College. He really does not want you to fail the class, Participation matters so come to class, take notes, do your hw and DO NOT CHEAT!!! He will do everything to help you. He makes his lectures fun and shows hands on physics. Must take him! #Gangji for president
best professor yet, he enjoys teaching physics and tries his best we understand all the material, makes us do problem solving in class which really helps during the exams, he has his way of making lectures fun even though physics is a really hard subject, do come to class it matters.
Professor Gangji makes physics fun and engaging. With a focus on understanding concepts, the class has reasonable difficulty. I found unstuckstudy ai super helpful for exam prep alongside the textbook. Highly recommend taking this course!
great lectures, gives questions to solve in class which help a lot for the exams, will explain again if you don't understand. he wants you to succeed. study hard and you'll do good.
I love him!!! He is probably one of the best professors I have ever had, and he will automatically give you an A if he sees you working hard and trying to understand the concepts. I took him during the summer, so he didn't mind if you miss a couple of classes because he understand it it's the summer, and that should be fun.
He is by far the best professor you will come across in college. All he wants is for his students to show up and try their best. He cares more about the effort being put in than your actual grades. His class is very late and it gets tiring easily but extremely worth it for sure. He makes class so fun especially with a tough subject like this.
As a high school senior with no prior physics experience in a college-level class, Professor Al-Karim Gangji helped me catch up on Honors and AP Physics 1 material, which typically takes two years to learn, along with other advanced topics. I'm grateful to have had him as my professor, and as he says, “LOL = LOTS OF LOVE!”
Amazing 🥰
He's a treasure in Qc. Highly recommended!! He helps you and wants you to succeed in his class. Tests are normal if you study properly. First exam average was low but he'll change things in the second and third exam depending on the first exam. His explanations were clear and easy to understand. ++he's so funny
By far best professor in this college. He actually cares and he's hilarious. The topic itself is very difficult but he makes it as fun as possible and he doesn't care for us to memorize anything or just do the problems he wants us to actually learn and that's what he cares about.
Guys, I can promise you this is the best professor you'll ever have for physics. He is really caring, do anything to help you pass the class and really funny. TAKE HIM you won't regret it
Professor Gangji is a gem! By far the #1 BEST professor I have had in all of college years so far. He genuinely cares for his students. He's also hilarious and always makes the class laugh. His exams are very fair as well; he even gives his students some answers! Though he is VERY strict with cheating so don't do it! Best professor on campus!!
If you have the opportunity to take him, TAKE HIM. He is a bundle of joy and he makes this class so manageable. Don't cheat and try your best, he will reward you. LOL GIVE HIM A RAISE!!!!!
TAKE HIM! He's such a kind person, and will ease students fears. He actually cares that his students succeed, and will always meet you half way. Show effort, make sure to attend lectures (he will notice), and do not cheat. If you do these, he will be inclined to help your grades. Don't drop after the first exam, he will adjust the remaining exams.
I failed my first exam and was scared I'd fail the course, but this professor changed everything. His class is always full of energy, fun, and encouragement, which makes learning enjoyable. He doesn't tolerate cheating and is always supportive. I've never had a professor like him he's the best. I highly recommend taking his class!
unlike any prof ive had before, so funny, so understanding and genuinely wants the best for his students. honesty and integrity is all he asks for. this class was so much fun. I enjoyed every minute. TAKE HIMMMMMM
He is easily the best professor in Queens College. Genuinely cares for each student, and makes a notoriously difficult class like physics engaging and entertaining.
Professor Gangji is one of the best people. It was meant for him to be a teacher; he cares about his students, as long as you don't cheat and show up to class, and participate. Don't be scared in his class, he will do anything to help you. Don't hesitate to ask for help; he will answer all questions.
He is such an amazing professor if I could take him for all my classes I would. He makes lectures fun and helps them make sense. He is very funny and likes to keep things fun. He also is very sweet. Greatest professor ever! If you have the option to take him, definitely do!
I am so glad he chose to teach as a career, bc he is seriously one of the best teachers out anywhere. I felt a bit discouraged in the middle of my semester, but Professor Gangji showed he believed in me, pulling me right out of that funk. So worth taking him. Beyond being an excellent teacher, he's an amazing person. Sign up.
Professor Gangji in my eyes is awesome Some students and I didn't do so well on the first test and then for the 2nd test he did something sooooo kind. He had whole class work together with their friends and classmates on the first 20 questions then come to find on the rest of the exam he let us continue working on the rest of the exam together.
Honestly he is the best professor at this college hands down! He actually wants you to pass and does everything in his power to make sure you do so.Textbook is required($90), Exams were half online and half in person(we were able to work together for 2 of them!), and homework was due every 2-3 weeks. He's really funny and makes you enjoy physics!
One of the best professors at Queens College. I didn't enjoy physics at first, but he made it genuinely enjoyable. His class was never missable like some others. He kept everyone engaged, making things that were actually funny, and even though it was a late class, his lectures kept us awake and interested. He truly made learning fun.
Truly the best professor at Queen's College. Physics is hard, but Dr. Gangji helped us through in every way he could. As long as you show effort, don't cheat, and prove that you are willing to put in your part; you will be okay. He isn't there to see us struggle, he's there to guide us and make sure we learn something.
He's honestly the best. As long as you honest and do your work to the best of your abilities, you will do great in the class.
There is a lot of homework assigned in this course, including three exams. However, the first exam is the hardest; he adjusts the difficulty of the other two exams based on how well or poorly the first one is performed. His lectures are clear, and he's both funny and understanding. His curve is rewarding, do everything honestly, and he'll help you
He is great I recommend taking him just as long as you do not cheat and do your work you should be fine.
