Spends time making sure we understand the difficult concepts. practice tests are key to the exams - don't miss his extra review sessions before tests! lots of homework which was annoying, but it helped with my grade.

Read the chapter before lecture. He gives several extra credit opportunities. Discussion sections are very helpful. If you need extra help, he is more than willing to meet with you outside of class/office hours. I never took AP chem, but got an A- in his chem class. Put in an honest effort, and you will succeed.

Klinger is an extremely smart man, but not the best at sharing his knowledge. He tends to go off on tangints that are confusing. He does offer a lot of extra credit and really cares about us getting good grades. His tests are mostly conceptual knowledge from the book and are usually weighted. Even though he is very confusing, he does try his best.

Dr klinger is super helpful. His class comes with lots of homework, but at the end it really helps boost your grade. He offers tons of extra credit. You even get extra credit points for not missing class. As long as you show him that you're trying there's no way you'll fail. Even those failing passes with c's. Its hard to fail. Literally...

Extremely helpful outside class and cares about his students. He helped me develop a study plan that took me from a C to an A!! I am very grateful. Could be more organized.

overall fair - really cares about students.

Lecture was ok. Summer class really moves too fast if you haven;t had physics before. Dr. K helped by letting us 'rework' our first exam, which the class bombed. I would have been toast without it .

He was a great professor, always trying to help us learn more. Homework a bit tedious, even annoying, but how else do you learn physics?

Need to go to class, but it helps to read at least parts of the book :( . Really cares about helping students learn and do well. Very accessible outside class. Good sense of humor also.

lectures are too long, but if you watch them it is an easy A

Dr. Klinger is very helpful if you directly ask him for help. The lectures are easy to understand if you follow along the whole time. I strongly suggest rewriting all of the notes before exams. There are pop quizzes, but usually only a few questions that came from the lecture before. Discussion is extremely helpful and he's a funny guy.

His tests are based on the lecture. The book is for explaining stuff another way. Go to lecture and pay attention and you should be fine.

very helpful, really wants to help students learn.

Chemistry is a tough class to begin with, so if you don't go to lecture and pay attention it will definitely be difficult. Discussion is helpful to go to if you are struggling with a certain chapter. The tests are difficult to finish on time and conceptual based. Lots of homework but it helps. Grades are curved at the end and lots of extra credit.

Show up and listen and you will do fine. Good lectures and good in office hours.

Cares about student learning. Makes himself available on weekends!

good, organized lecturer. lots of extra credit opportunity. needed to study hard for exams but it paid off :)

Amazing teacher! He truly cares about his students and is always willing to help. His tests are tough, but if you take the time to read the book, as he suggests, and then attend lecture and do homework, you'll succeed. Don't anticipate that his lectures will be enough. After all, it's college, and most of the learning is on YOU!

Really cares about every student learning basics. We must have done some basic trig 5 times to make sure everyone got it. Super accessible also. A gem ...

I had a really bad high school chem teacher but Dr. Klinger makes the material much easier and clearer. He gives out a lot of extra credit and changes the geade range at the end of the semester. His tests (worth about 75percent of final grade) are a bit difficult but not impossible. Make sure to study, pay attention in class, and go to discussion.

Lab quizzes are easy if you watch the videos carefully. Labs themselves are a breeze. The videos make them go faster!

One of the best chem classes I've ever taken. Dr. Klinger knows how to explain chemistry well. Technically, attendance is not mandatory but I suggest you show up to every class as he has pop quizzes every week. The biggest portion of your grade is two exams (50%) and the final (30%). They're not impossible, just study.

He is a very good professor. He explains everything very clear and is always willing to help if you are having trouble. He loves to explain why things happen so that you can understand what you are doing instead of answering just what you memorized. However, chem is a hard class and you should put your time into it. Totally recommend him.

I had Dr. Klinger for physics 112 lab which is pretty easy as long as you have some understanding of what is happening in the lecture. He posts prefab videos on the ponopto which pretty much are the procedure of the lab you're doing also he writes everything on the board that is needed to do calculations.

Lab was not fun but Dr. K tried to help make it easier.

Dr. K really cares about helping us learn. He answers my e-mail questions at all hours of the night, on weekends and just now over easter break. And his quizzes really help ... I wish I had taken him last term.

Dr. Klinger really cares about helping students learn. He is a great teacher.

Drop 1 lab and 1 quiz, so if all goes well, blow off the last week. Videos make quizzes and lab an easy A.

Dr. Klinger gave us all the resources we needed to succeed. I wish I could add more tags to his description, because he's very accessible outside the classroom. Overall, the class wasn't hard or time-consuming beyond the usual amount. The extra effort he gave really made the class worth waking up for, too.

Dr. Klinger is a great professor. He really cares about his students not only succeeding but being well prepared for the next chemistry class. Listen to pre-lectures, read the book, and do a lot of practice problems. I'm really glad I took Klinger. I feel like I learned a lot. I wish he was teaching more upper level chemistry and physics classes.

Dr. Klinger may not be the best teacher you've ever had, but he was so incredibly generous with giving extra credit and points back. The material was decently hard, but he had huge curves on all the tests and 50+ points of EC on the final. Really not that hard to get the grade you want, trust me...

Dr. Klinger is a great professor. He really cares about his students not only succeeding but being well prepared for the next chemistry class. He sat with me and explained what I should do differently and I got the grade I wanted! - the first instructor I took this course from was horrible!

Dr. K made the course go fast by.

Dr. K was great!

Dr. Klinger was one of the most helpful caring instructors I've had a Loyola. He truly cares about students succeeding. He helped me deal with my medical issues which other professors are not always sensitive about. He showed me how he thought I should study differently, and his calculation method really helped. Went from a low C to an A.

Dr. Klinger is one of the best professors I have. He is an extremely intelligent man who knows how to teach. He is caring about students learning and takes time to make sure everyone in the class understands. If every professor were like him we would get our money worth.

Dr. Klinger has been just fantastic. He has been so flexible with the amount of work assigned that even though I started out feeling I might have to drop, I'm getting an A. Incredible! Thank you Dr. Klinger

Dr. Klinger really cared about my situation and encouraged me and helped me to study differently. He has his own method of studying which really works well. Lots of EC ! Go to lecture, study as he recommends and you can get the grade you want.

Instructor was great, tried to make an annoying course simpler. loved his detailed procedures.

Funny guy, short lectures, great videos. watch the videos, easy A.

Dr. Klinger was fun and didn't waste our time with long lectures. Videos were great, though usually a little long. Watch them, easy A.

Great Teacher that cares about us learning. Wish ervry teacher would make class so effortless.

Watch the videos, show up, get an A.

Same as 111L - watch the videos, go to lab, get an A.

Not the most lab, but Dr. Klinger tried hsi best to make it ok. Very concerned about our safety, and safety of the TAs.

david is a sweet man

Dr. Klinger was generally hilarious. I say generally because sometime his jokes fell flat. Course was much harder than 101, but his lenient policies saved me. And all the extra credit. Mastering however was full of mistakes. Chem101 was ok but we didnt use after the first week. Tests were 2 mc and one w free response.

Dr. Klinger was even better in Chem 101. 4 mc tests, all curved. Mastering was ok, much less buggy.

Dr. Klinger, is a living contradiction. He says he is going to be a really tough grader and will not budge, but at the end of the semester curves, and gives out about 4 extra credit opportunities to boost your grade. His lectures are awful because of the lack of examples. I had him for summer chem 2, and I would take this class again with him.

Short clear lectures, procedures more detailed than manual. Helpful in lab and concerned about safety. What a lab instructor should be.

DR. Klingers lectures were simple and full of examples. Very helpful always wanting to make sure everyone in class understood.

Klingman is a solid chem prof. His lectures are decent but I recommend that you read the textbook and take notes from there. The main issue I had was the material on his homework and quizzes is rather inconsistent with what material is on his exams. But he curves pretty generously when needed which is fair.

This man is so accommodating & cares about what the students want, so doing poorly in his class is impossible. however, learning in his class is also impossible bc of his unorganized style. However he sets you up well enough to learn from the Mastering homework, and exams are easy if you're able to do homework. lots of extra credit

Dr. Klinger is a professor who wants you to do well, he will make sure you get the grade you deserve. His tests can be challenging, but he does his best to give you the maximum amount of points possible. He understands the majority of students are premed, so he goes above and beyond in helping his students understand the material.

The class is pretty difficult since there is a lot of material per exam. I would recommend taking this class though since he curves all of the exams and always provides extra credit to help boost your grade. He cares a lot about feedback from the class and it helped everyone's grade in the long run.

very concerned about all students learning basics. has videos and documents on learning methods and study methods. exams are mixed mc and fr. shorter than other chem professors. dr. klinger is funny; lectures full of examples. hated chem before, but i am retaking after doing poorly w another instructor year ago. highly recommend.

Dr. Klinger is a great guy who want everyone to succeed. Funny also. Two exams + final + lots of EC opportunities.

A really caring professor who wants everyone to learn and succeed. More reasonable than other chem profs I have had. Funny. Highly recommend.

Dr. Klinger really wants everyone in the class to learn the basics and succeed. Most caring professor I've had at Loyola.

Dr. Klinger is a kind and funny man. Just took him for summer chem 102 and ended really well, better than my entire last semester of 101 with a terrible prof. He's respectful, enthusiastic, and so smart. He cares a lot about what he teaches and truly wants everyone to understand. He understands that we have lives. He's a solid choice! I recommend!

Hes the best! Gives a lot of EC and really cares about his students. He wants everyone to pass, succeed and get into med school.

Prof. Klinger is a funny guy and keeps class interesting. He is always there to help & truly wants the best for his students. His exams are straight from the homework, but you really need to know how to do the material to get a good exam grade. One exam is dropped, weekly one problem quizzes, and a final. I'm not good at physics, but he's great.

I've had Dr. Klinger for CHEM 101 and 102 as well and taking him again for PHYS 112. Hands down best prof at LUC. Genuinely wants everyone to do well. 1 question quiz every week & comes from the hw. Exams are Aquino problems he assigns. Insane amounts of extra credit. If I could give a 6/5 I would. Put in some effort and you'll get an A.

Dr. Klinger was most helpful professor I've had at Loyola. And his jokes and stories break up the monotonous physics problems. Cares that we all do well. Highly recommend.

Dr. Klinger is one of my favorite professors by far. Made the transition to online labs extremely effectively and was accommodating to students' needs. Goes above and beyond to make sure his students learn and genuinely wants the best for them. Highly highly recommend

Honestly he's such a sweet man. A little disorganized but he asks for feedback and you can tell he really wants you to learn and do well. There are lots of quizzes almost one every week but he offers SO MUCH EXTRA CREDIT! We had 3 ec assignments plus ec on all exams and the final. Just do the hw most of the quiz and exam questions come from that.

Dr. Klinger is the best physics professor out there! He cares so much and tries to create healthy relationships with all of his students. Exams are homework heavy so if you on track of homework, you'll ace the class! He offered almost 3% extra credit in the class and the answers are usually found online. HIghly recommend him!

Dr. Klinger is a little bit ditzy, but he is a good guy. I took him for Chem 101 and again for physics lab. It's physics lab, it doesn't really matter who you take, but I'd still recommend Klinger.

Dr. Klinger is such a sweet guy! He wants all his students to do well in his class. He isnt the best at explaining things but he tells you what will be on the exam. SO MUCH EXTRA CREDIT!! Even this exams all have simple problems for extra credit Super understanding especially during this pandemic. He is willing to fulfill all needs of students.

Dr. Klinger is caring and wants the best for his students. I had a lot of problems with HOL and my lab equipment and he was so understanding. Some labs can be long but he goes through the lab during zoom and also goes over the questions and explains them. If you go to the sessions and listen its honestly an easy A. He also emails back quickly!!

Dr. Klinger is a sweetheart! I thought his teaching style translated well in an online setting. His exams were very fair and a lot of the exam questions mirrored what we had gone over in class and/or completed for homework. If you put in a basic amount of effort you will do well. He also gives so much extra credit! An A in his class is very doable.

Dr Klinger is my favorite professor at Loyola. I had him for Physics 1 and 2, and learned so much about physics. He was very compassionate and caring during the transition to online, and is always accesible. Tests are indicative of the homework, and there is so much extra credit. If you participate, he'll end up being a close friend.

Professor Klinger is one of the sweetest and most caring professors I have ever had. He genuinely wants his students to do well in his class. Exams are very similar to the homework, so as long as you do it, you will be just fine. He also gives extra credit throughout the semester.

come to zoom, follow instructions, straightforward A. funny, with good stories and good recipes. take him.

Dr. Klinger is my favorite professor at Loyola. I've taken him for Chem 102 and 111L. Always concerned about student learning and that students do well.

Overall the class was good. He gave lots of extra credit on exams and for hw. The lecture material is wayyy too hard so I'm glad I took it online as I'm not sure I would have done so great in person. He also flies through notes but is always willing to go back and explain.

Dr. Klinger really wants all students to succeed. Three tests, drop one, all based on homework and class examples. Same for the final. Highly recommend

Come to lab lecture, do the lab, get an A.

Three exams, one drop. Quizzes and homework on mastering. Videos lectures make studying for exams easy. synchronous sessions are great for problems solvings questions. Highly recommend.

As others have written, watch the videos, go to lab, get an A.

Dr. Klinger cares about his students and offers lots of areas for improvement. He truly wants to see everyone succeed. Quizzes and tests are largely based on homework problems, so completing them is essential for doing well in the class. Sometimes tends to go through powerpoints quickly, so you need to spend time going over problems on your own.

I dont understand the hate towards professor Klinger! He cares about his students and wants them to succeed. He gives so much advice on how to do well in his class, if you take it hes practically handing you an A. Granted physics is hard, so youll have to put in the effort to understand and do well but honestly just do the hw and youll be fine!

His class schedule wasnt clear but eventually you learn to work around it. He also penalizes your tests and quizzes if you dont follow his method of showing your work. Though, youll get partial credit, which is cool. That being said, Klinger genuinely wanted everyone who worked to improve their grade, improve. He is cool and quirky!

Very generous with grades, even tho content is hard. Attend class. Textbook there but not needed. Cares and offers a lot to his students who ask for help. May come off a little weird but definitely doesn't mean to. Didn't expect an older person to be so respectful of my they/them pronouns but he exceeded expectations and asked respectful questions.

watch the videos, come to lab, get A. Simple.

come to class, do the homework, get an A. Not a hard class, but not easy. remember that exam questions are based on homeworks.

Great teacher, great class!

Took him a couple years ago for Chem 102 and he was by far one of the most accessible professors I've had at Loyola. All of the lectures were clear and entertaining, he has a great sense of humor so that made the class pass by much easier. If you can take him for any Chemistry of Physics class do it. If you put in the work you'll enjoy it.

As everyone told me, watch the videos, review last week's lab, go to lab, get an A. And Klinger is funny ...

Rough J-term lab, but he made it seem like fun. Good guy, helpful with good tips on how to get through labs quickly.

Dr. Klinger inspired me to keep taking more science classes. I'm adding a minor in physics because of him!

Do the homework, watch the lecture videos, and use them to study. Not an easy class, but Klinger makes everything simple if you follow his advise. Highly recommend!

Professor Klinger makes HOL easy - telling us about problems with the labs so we don't waste time. And he's funny...

This man is an absolute gem and seriously one of the best professors I have taken. He genuinely cares about his students and wants you to succeed. Gives lots of ec. TAKE FULL ADVANTAGE OF IT. Quizzes and tests are exactly whats given on hw and in class. You cannot go wrong with him. Just do what he says and you'll get an A.

Klinger was a wonderful professor. He wants all of his students to succeed, and he gives out the most extra credit he possibly can; extra assignments as well as bonus questions on quizzes and exams. I didn't really go to classes because he posts lectures online and I got by fine. He ended up curving the final by a lot as well

Professor Klinger is a king. Willing to help outside of class if you have questions and if you do the homework you will be fine. 10/10 would recommend

Everything I was told about this class is true. Watch the videos, come to lab, get an A. Klinger doesn't waste our time with long lectures, just what's needy to compliment the videos

Great Instructor - made everything seem simple. Great example problems in class. He had shorter tests than anyone else teaching chem 102. Cares about students succeeding. Best professor I've hadd at Loyola!

Best prof I've had at Loyola! Cares about students. Always helpful inside and outside of class. really walks the walk when it comes to Jesuit values. Can't go wrong here

Rough taking physics over the summer, but Klinger made it feel effortless. Kept everyone laughing with jokes. really cares about students learning.highly recommend.

Take Dr. Klinger! He was very accessible outside of class and his passion for physics will make you want to learn. The class is not too difficult: 3 exams (lowest dropped),final, 3 focus assignments, quizzes, and a ton of extra credit! Don't expect to retain too much of the content after you're done with the class.

Klinger is a very good professor.He's accommodating and accessible outside class.He taught the material very well and the class itself wasn't difficult.There are 3 exams and a final (drops the lowest one).A lot of opportunities for extra credit. If you do the homework and pay attention to the problems done in class, you shouldn't have to worry.

100% recommend Dr. Klinger to anyone taking physics. Never had a professor more invested in students' academic success. 3 exams (1 dropped), 12 quizzes (2 dropped but usually 1), focus assignments for exams, so much extra credit. Most quiz/exam content based on the optional HW. Loves student interaction during and after class and is genuinely kind.

Dr. Klinger is the kindest and most generous professor I have had. Physics is not an easy subject at all, especially for someone who has never taken physics. He gives a ton of EC, drops your lowest quiz AND lowest exam. He will always put the students first before the material.

Dr. Klinger told us how he will explain things (phenomena, equations, examples, in-class questions, more examples) and how the test and quizzes depend on understanding the problems in class and in the homework. Most understanding and caring professor I've had at Loyola.

Klinger is a funny guy. Gives off grandpa vibes. He was obsessed with my pencil case. Basically explained the entire lab for people if he had to. Take him for sure if you can.

Really funny and cares about student success. Exams are based on quizzes, homeworks and problems in class. If you miss class the videos of his lectures are more than enough to make up. Just do what he says and you'll do fine. 1 exam drop and 1 quiz drop (though we had two dropped quizzes this term).

Watch the videos, come to lab and have the TA check your data before you leave. Can't go wrong with this guy. And because we use the videos every week, lab partner and I get out of lab early almost every week. Every lab class should be like this

three exams (1 drop) plus final, quizzes (drop 1), practice tests (Klinger calls them focus assignments). Lots of extra credit opportunities. Funny guy, cares about student success. Had him last term and again now. Favorite science teacher at Loyola.

Highly recommend Dr. Klinger to anyone taking physics. Never had a professor more invested in students' academic success. 3 exams (1 dropped), bunch of quizzes (1 dropped), , so much extra credit. Most quiz/exam content based on the optional HW. Loves student interaction during and after class and is genuinely kind person.

I would highly recommend Dr. Klinger for any physics class. He gives lots of extra credit opportunities and cares more that you are understanding the material than anything else. One test is dropped, and each quiz has lots of extra credit. The homework assigned can be a lot, but very similar problems show up on the test, so it's worth it to do it.

If you are taking any physics lab be sure to take Dr. Klinger. The quizzes can be a little difficult sometimes, but as long as you read the lab manual before you'll be fine. The lab reports are so easy with the TA walking around, and they give you hints for the lab report questions. Make sure to watch the videos before the lab because they help.

If you watch the videos and read the lab manual before class, the quizzes are easy and the labs go by fast. He doesn't lecture on procedures unless it's to tell you about a difficult part of the lab or problems to avoid. The lab report worksheets at the end of class are really easy, and even if they're not, he explains every single one. TAKE HIM!

Klinger is the best. He makes physics 1 SO easy to pass. Literally do the homework, study the homework problems. Everything is based exactly on the homework, except for a couple questions on the final. He is a sweet guy, loves to talk about physics, smart as heck, and wants you to do well. I cannot say enough good things about him!!!!!!!!!

Gives so much extra credit on exams and is super clear about what he wants from you. Lectures are interesting, lots of tangents which keep the class interesting. Wants you to succeed earnestly.

Klinger is a good choice for lab. All you have to do is watch the lecture videos, read the manual, and show up to lab. Pretty easy to get an A.

he gives so much extra credit opportunity. Homework isn't for a grade but if you do it, you'll get an A on the weekly quiz. Extra credit opportunity on every exam and every quiz. he gives study guides for the exams, that are usually harder than the actual exam. If you take him, and you do the homework, you'll get an A.

all physics labs 111L & 112L have standardized quizzes in the beginning of class out of 4 pts (which makes or breaks your grade)....make friends w/ older people who took physics. Literally did not study for this class. His TA's will check over your reports so you get 100% and he puts the answers on the board. 1 drop quiz and lab report.

TAKE HIM! Lots of extra credit. This man will give you so much partial credit for literally writing down a formula. His exams are fair and you do need to study a bit. Not a very good lecturer imo, but exams & quizzes are just like hw & pulls conceptual questions from there exactly. hw not graded, 3 exams (1 drop), 15 quizzes (1 drop), 1 final

Professor Klinger makes physics a breeze. Tons of extra credit, easy exams, and super helpful lectures. Use Unstuck study to prep - it's a game-changer!

Dr. Klinger is awesome and will push all students to be their best in physics. If you go to class and ask questions when confused you will do well. Dr Klinger does a good job of- 🛸💨 omg am i going crazy or did you guys also see that ufo fly past

If you don't do well in his class, that is 1000% on you. Any bad rating he has on here is from forever ago. Not only are his lectures in video form on Sakai, (so you can pretty much do the class remotely) but the homework is also not "mandatory," although it's a spitting image of your quizzes and tests, so do it. Most amazing teacher ever.

This class is ok. Quizzes are just about if you completed the hw, and tests are about material on quizzes. Overall not a hard teacher or course. Klinger is a nice guy, but kinda boring. Knowledgable guy who wants everyone to do good.

Professor Klinger is very kind and will do a lot to help you understand the topics. That being said he is obviously very knowledgeable and an experienced professor, which means he often moves quickly and there isn't always time for questions. He doesn't grade homework but you have to do it in order to understand lectures.

He is so kind and very funny, best teacher in the physics department by a landside. he really wants you to succeed and absolutely encourages you every step of the way

One of the best prof for physics. He has a certain charisma that you can appreciate. Offers a good amount of extra credit and plenty of opportunities for improvement test wise and academically.

I took him for Phys 111 and 112. Im not even gonna lie I only did the homework and showed up for quizzes and tests and passed with an A. Everything on quizzes and tests are based on homework. He is a very good professor. TAKE HIM IF YOU CAN!!

He is a very kind man who is willing to go out his way so his students are able to learn the fundamental concepts of physics. Me personally, I hate physics, but i loved this teacher. I was able to learn physics in an effective way. Plus, he gives out a lot of extra credit and curves exams generously. Take him

Dr. Klinger might be one of the best professors Loyola has. He will make sure you understand and will take the entire if needed to make sure you understand. He has panopto videos on EVERY lecture. HW not mandatory to complete but extremely helpful to do. Weekly quizzes. very generous with grading. one midterm and one quz is dropped.

Dr. Klinger is great. Very genuine and truly wants everyone to succeed in physics. Although the material is confusing, he is more than willing to offer explanations through his panopto videos or office hours. Very generous in grading as well and offers a plethora of EC. He's just a good guy!

Dr. Klinger is the goat! He provides a lot of extra credit so you can definitely boost your grade if you mess up. He also gives a lot of partial credit. Physics is overall a hard subject so you do have to put in the work. I took him for lab as well and he's a great professor and i'm taking him for physics 2 again.
