Exams are on the HW problems he goes throw in the class, Just study those prob. and you will be really good in the exam. Labs, if you go to lab and do it u will get 10/10 .

Craig is certainly an easy physics teacher, and he's helpful one-on-one, but he mumbles through lectures and shows little enthusiasm for his subject. His teaching is straight from the book and based on dryly memorizing formulas instead of livening the content to aid understanding. Don't take him if you'll need to know physics in your career.

Amazing Professor. They speak in a way thats easy to understand and they make the lesson interesting. If I could I would take this class again. The grading is also fair, as long as you study the notes you take in class then the test will be easy. I took him for astronomy and loved it definitely recommend.

Wouldn't take again

He wasn't as good as his reviews claim. His first exam was extremely easy, then he unexpectedly increased the difficulty of his next three exams by a lot. He had many questions on the exam that he didn't teach. Many of my other friends took other professors at MVCC and had a much easier time. He struggled to transition to online. Grades late af.

Excellent teacher and really easy going! Took as a remote class due to Covid-19 and it was worth it. He gave four exams, makeups too and extra credit! Lab part was very time consuming though.

Prof Casey was the best teacher I've had a Moraine. Lectures are right to the point and then he goes over all the problems you need to know to do well on the exams. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

This professor Craig who teaches Physics that I took PHY-106 since Spring 2022 that I needed for my Computer and LAN Technology major. He's my favorite professor I love. He gave me and classmates excellent worksheets. I took physics class since my senior year in high school. Thanks to Craig for giving us good grades and excellent assignments.

I read other reviews at rmp and then took Mr Casey for PHY 150 Gen Physics I in Spring. Lectures were a big help with solving the problems and getting ready for the exams. Highly recommend

Great professor! The lectures are straightforward and his explanations really help with the problem sets. I found unstuck AI and the free textbook to be super useful for studying and prep. Definitely worth taking this class if you're looking for an engaging physics course.

Wowza! Took Prof Casey for PHY 1 and 2. Lectures were straight to the point, goes over theory and formulas, but it is mainly problem solving in class. Would highly recommend!

Grades weren't entered until after the semester was over and nothing was graded all year. Labs were extremely easy but lectures were just word for word reading slideshows. Never responded to emails either but if you just reviewed the slideshows before the exams you'll do good.

110% recommend him to anyone scared of physics. I never took physics in high school and came in nervous, but I ended with a really high grade. His class is super straightforward, study the worksheets he does with you in class before exams and you'll do great. Great teacher!
