Dr. Myers is super enthusiastic about the material and clearly understands physics concepts, but he is super hard to get ahold of to answer questions. He is clearly a very recent grad, so I feel bad for criticizing him too much, but he is not much help in an already difficult course. I feel like he is light years ahead of the class during lectures.

He is the most difficult person to listen to in lecture. He's not very good at clearly explaining things and he isn't the nicest about answering questions. If possible try for someone else or be prepared to spend hundreds of dollars to teach yourself an entire semesters worth of subject matter.

For an intro level physics class, understanding the material in Corey Meyers class is very challenging. Im writing this review more so to help those who are enrolling for spring physics 111, but I would not recommend taking this class in the slightest. If you want to teach yourself all the material, go for it. Week 6 and I have no idea what to do.

For this being an intro class it is extremely difficult. I stopped going to class because I have learned more on my own from the textbook and homework. He writes the quizzes himself and they feel like an advanced level. I get excited when I get a 50% on them. I feel bad because he is fairly new to this but it is affecting my grade.

SAVE YOURSELF! Seriously. I would give him a zero. This is the worst class I have ever taken. It's clear he did not go to school to become a teacher, his powerpoints are hard to follow and I had to learn everything on my own. Going to class is such a waste of time, the weekly quizzes are unnecessarily hard and he moves through chapters too fast.

Corey is very passionate about Physics, but he's not great at teaching it. The lectures make no sense, so I stopped going to class. The homework problems are significantly harder than the review questions we go over in class. The tests are rather easy, but be prepared to go to SI sessions and learn on your own.

Myers is one of the nicest professors I've ever had. However, he is not a good lecturer. I do believe he has great potential as he is very passionate about physics, so I would just give him a few more semesters and he will be great! If you have to take him just be prepared to teach yourself from the book, it's not hard but very time consuming.

Do not take Dr Meyers if you can prevent it! He is very new to teaching and it shows. If you have to take his class, you will have to teach yourself the material as he only reads off the slides in lecture and is not very helpful in getting students to understand the material. Even when students ask questions, he gets very irritable and doesnt help

I would steer clear of this professor if possible. Its clear Dr. Myers knows the subject; however, its almost impossible for him to teach the class. Participation is required but it is a waste of time since you will teach yourself the course. I have taken AP Physics in high school and I still struggled in this class.

Absolutely avoid this professor. You have to teach yourself everything- he is way too smart to be teaching physics, he cant dumb it down. Gets angry when you ask questions and wont even really answer them. Changes policies last minute and screws you over. His lectures make no sense so its only worth going for attendance.

Do not take him for physics. He should not have been allowed to teach because he simply doesn't know how to. He is smart and clearly understands physics but the lectures are pointless because he doesn't explain anything. I had to teach myself physics this semester and its one of the most frustrating courses I have ever taken and I am a junior.

This class was unnecessarily hard for an introductory course and it's all due to Prof. Myers' inability to teach efficiently. He knows the content however, he does not know how to dumb it down for people who are just beginning to learn physics. I had to teach myself practically everything in this class in order to get a good grade.

he cares about becoming a better teacher in the future, but this class was the hardest 100 level class I've taken. Did not do very many examples, assigned a lot of homework, and does not answer questions very clearly.

This class is foul. Dr. Myers is an awful professor and I loathed this class because he cant dumb anything down to the level of beginner students. EVERYTHING IS ON CHEGG

Couldnt speak clearly enough to allow the students a chance to understand the material. Would never work through a problem with the class only showed the answer.

TAKE PHY111 THROUGH CCC. Meyers does not explain a single thing. he doesnt go through any problems with you. and he just talks through the math without actually showing you anything. you will have to learn everything through khan academy and SI. this class was absolutely awful.

Very bad at speaking clearly and very hard to follow during lectures. His labs are by far the worst labs I have ever encountered, there is very little information to preface the labs and they tend to be extremely confusing. 90% of the time it feels like Myers himself doesn't know what his own labs are about and is incapable of offering help.

One of the worst experiences I've had in a classroom because of a professor. Doesn't speak clearly or elaborate on anything. When asked questions, answers are confusing and unclear. Communication skills are severely lacking. There is no follow-up or clear notes/annotations on returned graded work. Avoid taking his classes

The worst classroom experience I've ever had. He refuses to even work a problem out in class. When we do clickers it is the worst results every time you'd think he wound get that we are lost, but no death by lecture. He spends more time on corny jokes that he does structuring his class. Honestly the most frustrating class to self teach.

He seems like one of those professors that is super knowledgable on his subject, but cannot teach it to others to save his life.

We would have two homework assignments due after every class with a quiz on top of that every Friday. Showed up for the iClicker points only, he speaks into a microphone that echo's around the room and breathes in the middle of words. Everything is on Chegg and the exams are online. Avoid taking him for any class.

No resources, no feedback, no study guides, no equation sheets, no clear instruction, no communication, no organization, nothing. Myers is smart but in NO WAY should he be teaching. He did not help at all when asked questions and got mad. Absolutely the worst experience I've ever had. Confusing and frustrating. If you can, DO NOT TAKE HIS CLASS!

All he does is read from the slides. He doesn't actually teach, he doesn't explain things well, half the time you cant ask questions, and he doesn't do any example problems to actually make sure we have the understanding to complete the homework, which often isn't covered in what he reads from the notes. Asked for help and he told me to ask the SI.

Worst class I've ever had, Myers is absolutely useless. He refuses to do examples in class. Asking questions is pointless because he won't answer them. Class average on the final was a 52%, and he refuses to round grades. I walked out during finals week due to his incompetence. Good luck getting an email response from him too. HORRIFIC professor.

Just read off PowerPoint slides which was unfortunate. I would have learned much better with worked-out examples in class. I didn't take away anything from this course, just memorized equations.

Corey Myers a thoroughly awful teacher. Go into class, check into iclicker and have slides read to you in slow, and boring manner. Don't attempt to take notes (write down the formulas at the end of each powerpoint) nor ask questions as Corey cannot answer them in a useful way. Pay close attention to emails and forget about passing the final.

Corey Myers is a particular brand of terrible. His lectures are repetative and robotic, his unhinged tangents will eat up much of the class time. He has a refusal to answer questions despite the course content being quite difficult. My advice is to take notes on the slide shows and attend SI if needed because Myers is more detrimental than helpful.

Lectures were out of a book and failed to do sample problems or even clear up misunderstandings

He has no idea how to teach. Only recites scripted lectures WORD FOR WORD every single class. No engagement what so ever

Myers isn't a professor I would take if you have the chance to take anyone else even though he is the only professor for this class. His only exam is a final and it is waited 25% of your grade. He reads directly off of powerpoints that the textbook company makes and when someone asks a question he responds by reading off of the powerpoints again.

This professor is so bad he has basically become a meme among STEMs. He does not touch the whiteboard or work through any practice problems.He has trouble speaking so it's hard to hear what he says.Attendance is 25% of your grade. I recommend going and doing everything because you're going to need those points come the final exam. Two thumbs down

It can be very hard to understand him during lectures

Dr Myers knows physics well, but does not know how to teach. He would basically copy and paste the textbook onto a power point and read it word for word in a monotone voice. He never offered any practice problems, and would sometimes would get mad at questions. I don't think I learned a single thing from him. Avoid if you can.

To his credit, Dr. Myers is very knowledgeable and passionate, but unfortunately he just cannot teach. Lectures are extremely robotic and hard to understand, slides are just a wall of text and math for you to mindlessly copy, and while there are iClicker problems during class, they barely ever help with the actual homework problems.

This is one of the most boring classes ever. There is homework 3 times a week plus a quiz every Friday. The homework is nothing like the class topics. The professor is extremely monotoned and is not a very good teacher. There is only one test the whole semester which is the online final worth 25% of your grade and its just as hard as homework.

I don't even know where to start. Maybe with, don't take this professor ever if you have the chance. His lectures are screenshots of the online textbook that he reads aloud for 3 hours a week after assigning the same reading for homework the weekend prior. Got sick? Mental health crisis? Forget about passing this course. He allows no late work ever

Lectures are like eating sand, bland and pointless. He reads equations verbatim off of slides he stole from the internet. He ignored all 6 of my emails to him over the course of the semester. I learned nothing in his mandatory classes, and he refuses to provide students with supplemental material to actually learn. TAKE THIS COURSE ELSEWHERE!

Dr. Myers does not seem to know how to teach a class. His class was mind-numbingly boring since he reads slides directly from the textbook word-for-word, and the homework problems are nothing like the very few iClicker problems he provides in class. Be prepared for a lot of self-teaching. There are no exams except the final, which is the only plus.

Be prepared for this professor to tell you that he want's to see your 'mutilated dog' and a picture of your ID to makeup attendance for any class you might miss. Then when it comes to the final you can use the textbook but only if you have a second device to look at it since the final is proctored. Makes zero sense I learned nothing from this class

DO NOT TAKE THIS CLASS! Oh wait you don't have a choice! Lectures are straight from the textbook and not helpful in completing homework. He doesn't provide any helpful examples or write ANYTHING ever. Be ready to show up to lecture, complete Iclicker and do homework for other classes. He should be teaching an upper-level physics class. Good luck.

He reads the lecture slides straight from the textbook in a way that makes it harder to understand than if I just read the slides myself.

Genuinely, one of the worst professors I've ever had. His lectures are blocks of texts pulled directly from the textbook, yet attendance is 25% of the grade. Final was open book and open note with 40 questions.

First 2 days in class, and he hands us a 10-question quiz for the last 5 minutes. Not one student finished, and even the TA said he didn't find a solution in time. He also stated, "I would say the n word, but I don't want to get sued," in a poor attempt at humor.

Had to learn the material on my own, as this professor is impossible to understand. Has the habit of jumbling words together and has bad annunciation. Reads straight from the text books and doesn't go over examples or use the white board. Styling of teaching is awful.

This professor is very lecture heavy, while not work through problems on the board will only read textbook. I tried to give him the benefit of the doubt until today when a student asked him to work through the question and he just disregarded her and told her off. Has a habit of stumbling over his words and talking very fast. Hard to understand.

Lectures lifted from textbook & does not explain examples. Only wrote down the formula when asked to work an example. It was pointed out he didn't solve the problem, he argued. He treats us poorly if we ask simple questions. First lecture he gave a quiz in the last five minutes of class. Difficult to understand speech. Joked about saying the n-word

God awful lectures and explanations, every time a question was asked I ended up more confused than previously. Heavy lectures where he only reads from the textbook. There are no engaging activities, no working through problems together, and no thought provoking exercises. He just reads at you. You are better off without a professor than with Myers.

He doesn't know how to teach or communicate at all. When asking about different things he could do to make the class better, when we responded he said "ill think about it" and then did nothing. Worked no problems out in front of us and was rude to students asking questions. Can't understand him and you will have to learn material outside of class.

This is the worst class I have taken in my 4 years at NAU. DO NOT TAKE UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES

This professor takes over 2 days to get back to emails and is so awkward when you try to ask him questions in class or will not answer the questions correctly like he does not like human contact. A student in my class asked him to help us by going step by step through a problem and he stated "I gave you the equation that's basically the answer".

Would rate a zero but I cannot. Mr. Myers reads straight from the textbook and offers no extra insight or help. You will have to teach yourself. Out of my years of courses, this is the worst I've ever experienced. Do not take this course, plain and simple. His study guide for our test did not help at all and was 96 slides long.. run...

Does not go through practice problems, does no review, takes forever to grade exams, doesn't expand on topics at all.

DO NOT TAKE THIS CLASS WITH MYERS!!! He's just not good at teaching. I've made some progress studying on my own, but the lectures just make everything worse. There's 3-5 homework assignments each week that take up to two hours each. He doesn't give example problems in class either. He reads straight off the Pearson made slides. Avoid at all costs!!

hard to understand, just reads off of slides and does not explain further or provide example walkthroughs. do not take him if possible

He has an awful teaching style. He doesn't seem to actually care if you learn anything or not, he just seems to wants to get through it. The second exam was so bad he had to give it two curves just so the entire class wouldn't fail it. Do whatever you have to do to not take Corey Myers' class.

Do NOT take this Professor if you can help it!!!! It is very difficult to understand him in lectures. He does not do a good job at helping you or answering questions. All he does is read the textbook almost word for word. He does curve the exams a lot because so many students fail.

Awful. Lectures were wasted by Dr. Myers using the entire time to read word for word from the textbook with zero insight, practice problems, or helpful tips. Be prepared to waste your time being in class, and learning all content by yourself. When asked for help, the only insight Myers give is that "here is the equation Idk whats so confusing".

When signing up for my classes this year the professor for this class was TBA so I had no clue who my professor was going to be until a week before classes started. If I knew how bad of a professor Dr. Myers is, I would've switched IMMEDIATELY. You will not learn in his class, avoid at all costs!!!

I could not stand this class. Dr. Myers reads off slides (that are generated by Pearson) word for word. He provides little to no problem examples and the final is worth 25%. If you must take his class, I suggest attending, answering TopHat questions, and doing other work. You'll have to teach yourself the material on your own time.

Dr. Myers reads directly from the textbook and does not work through problems, even if asked. Much of his lectures are spent quickly reading through the slides without elaborating on what any of the information actually means. Be ready to teach yourself all of the material on your own time and watch a lot of Organic Chemistry Tutor.

Dr. Myers' class is great if you're someone who doesn't care about the material. If you care about your education and the money you spend to take courses, don't take Myers. He spends all class time reading textbook slide decks then assigns 6+ hours of homework every week. I ended the class with a 98, but didn't learn anything.
