Very dedicated professor.Explains the best he can and doesn't care if you come to class or not just as long as you do well on the tests...Chemistry in itself is hard but he tries to make his tests easier and always has extra credit opportunities...

The tests are harder than how he makes them sound, but he is a great teacher overall. He makes class entertaining with jokes and explains difficult topics with clarity. Also, he is happy to answer any questions and is always courteous and understanding.

he's pretty funny.

Tests aren't super hard, but they aren't super easy either. He didn't require attendance for the majors only section. ACS exam at end of each semester gave decent extra credit points. Online homework was intense at times, but very helpful.

Dr. Gellene is a great professor. I was in the major specific section so his lectures had alot of depth and helped me to truly understand the material. He also has several subtle jokes so listen for them. If you dont do your homework, dont take this class.

Awesome prof. Highly recommended

Great professor, really interested in teaching the students. He's funny! I used to write down his jokes so i could giggle while i studied later. highly recommended.

Great professor. Says jokes to revive the class when lectures get pretty boring. Very friendly and defintely knows what he is talking about. There is lot of online homework that you have to do in order to pass gen chem. If you don't do the hw you will fail.

Gellene is the best chem professor to take. His clicker session help you get extra points so you don't bomb the course. Exams can be tough. He keeps you interested in class and is a good professor overall.

He makes chemistry enjoyable.

Extremely helpful. Nice, funny, and reasonable. Jokes in class to keep attention but presents material clearly. Though class is hard, he gives several opportunities to get extra points.

He knows his material and presents it very clearly, though in a big lecture hall sometimes it's hard to stay awake anyways and you miss out on stuff. He often tells jokes in class and makes it really entertaining. His clicker sessions are very helpful both for learning/reviewing material and helping your grade. There's a ton of homework though...

Dr. Gellene is by far the best professor for Chemistry 1307. He's a great teacher, and is a very funny guy. He has clicker sessions unique to his section, and they are tremendous grade boosters and offer good preparation for tests. There is a lot of online homework, but it prepares you well for exams. I highly reccommend Dr. Gellene's class.

He tries to keep things interesting, but some times over does it. His clicker classes help you more than you think so GO! The tests are tricky, but if you pay attention you will do fine.

Great professor, definitely knows his stuff. You need to read before lectures to fully understand the material. This course is harder than the honors chem and Gellene is much more knowledgable than Casadonte.

Very good teacher. He really knows what he's talking about. He makes lecture interesting with his corny jokes, some of which are actually funny. His clicker sessions are a very big help for understanding the material. And he doesn't use the book, so buying it isn't mandatory, but it is recommended. He refers to it sometimes. Overall, Good Teacher!!

Great professor. He keeps you up to speed with the departmental exams and the clicker sessions help with your grade and understanding the material.

One of the best professors I have had here. He knows what he is talking about and tries to make it as interesting as possible. I used to not like chemistry but after having him I am loving it and I am applying to be a chemistry tutor next semester because of this class. It's a hard class, but if you study well (not cramming) you will get an A.

He is one of the best proffessors I have had. He really knows his stuff and enjoys teaching. I bought the book but did not open it once. Go to class, take notes, pay attention to clicker questions, and do practice problems. He is always there to help if you need it.

Gellene is an incredible professor. I had his class at 8am and it was still enjoyable. Go to class, pay attention, take notes, do the homework. Make the effort. If you don't get it, ask him, he's really nice and funny and he will explain it to you.

Gellene was the best Chemistry professor I had at Tech

He was an excellent teacher. Expect a significant amount of homework, but it definitely helps you understand the material. Taking the companion course that he teaches, Chem 1117, was extremely helpful as well.

Good professor. He definitely knows what he is talking about, I had class at 8 AM but he still kept it interesting. Lots of homework, but if you keep up to date it helps your grade. GO TO THE SI SESSIONS. They help a ton, and take the 1117 help course, the practice tests they give you are similar to the exams. Definitely recommend him!

Nice/funny guy. TON of online homework, but definitely do it. Read the book and take good notes (which can be kind of hard, he doesn't just write what you need to write. He talks) and you should be good

I had him for the chem support class for CHEM 1307. He helped clear out things I didn't understand. As a professor I hear he gives out a lot of homework. But taking him for the support class is a smart thing to do. I say he was part of why I passed.

Gellene is the best gen chem professor at Tech. I had him for both chem 1307/1308. While he does tend to get off topic, he is clear with material and open to helping everybody. Homework is assigned a lot but it is very helpful. Study hard and you'll be fine, the practice test he provides are a good judge for the actual tests.

The best professor I've ever had!!! Gellene is simply the smartest and funniest professor. He keeps his students engaged and makes me want to come to class. I love his corny jokes. He is always available to help students. To pass the class, go to SI session and do the huge load of HW he gives. He gives the HW to help us understand the concepts.

He is super helpful. I highly recommend going to every class cause he really helps with understanding the topics. SI sessions with him are a good opportunity to clear up anything you might be confused with. OWLs aren't always easy but you could learn a lot just by doing them, but the real learning is from him in lecture.

great teacher, however the material that he teaches (chemistry) is quite difficult. he tries his best to explain everything to the best of his abilities. read the book as well because several questions on the exams will not be covered in the lecture and can only be found in the book.

Truly an amazing professor who loves what he teaches. He rambles sometimes, but it is to keep the students engaged. Approachable for questions, clear presentations, and if you attend help sessions and do all of the OWL homework you should score well on exams. If not, there are plenty of tutoring opportunities included in your tuition on campus.

He is an amazing teacher and I am going to try to get him for as many science classes as possible.

Gellene is a great guy and teaches concepts extremely well. The problem is that the tests are not over "concepts" but rather problems (obviously). He assigns a LOT of homework through OWL, which is more harmful than helpful. He's probably the best Gen Chem professor Tech has though. Be sure to go to his office hours. He's a good guy.

Took his support class for chem 1307. He is fun in a nerdy way, keeps you entertained. He's a great professor and an intelligent man. His support class really helps.

Probably my favorite professor my first semester. He is very helpful in both the homework he assigns and his lectures. He makes them interesting lectures although sometimes his lectures are pointless and he will lecture anyways. Take him if at all possible!!!

Majors only section really interesting

Gellene is a great professor. He never does example problems, but you get all the practice you need through the countless hours of OWL homework he assigns. Go to SI sessions as often as you can. If you work hard and you want it bad enough, and A is possible in both of these classes.Be warned; most people thought the gen chem tests were impossible.

Really good teacher and really funny!! He is always willing to help you and answer questions. He will extend homework if you missed it because of something more important. Very understanding with grades, for quizzes 50% or more 100%, and 80% or more on homework 100%. Best chemistry teacher I have ever had by far!!!

It's was major specific chemistry. The class was hard but totally worth it.

He is very thorough in his lectures. His lectures are almost entirely concepts, so if you are not a conceptual learner then he may not be the professor for you. However the homework has a lot of practice for applying those. He is extremely helpful and ready to answer any questions. I had him for CHEM 1307 and 1308 and would recommend him to anyone.

I took Majors Chemistry 1 and man was it a kicker. His tests are not the easiest so you will have to study. I will tell you I didn't have much of a science background in the first place, but if you try, you will get the A. There's also a bonus test which saved me. I encourage you to talk one on one with him because he truly cares about his students

Pretty difficult subject matter but he always did a great job breaking it down for the students. Always made class worthwhile and is a very entertaining professor

Dr. Gellene's online Chem 1307 was the best class ever. We met once a week for a participation grade. Homework was worth 40%, and if you have an A, he will add 10% extra to any other section of your grade that you need. Homework is also given an unlimited amount of attempts, so there is really no reason anyone should fail.

Gellene is the best Chem teacher at Tech. I took this class online so I only saw him once a week for recitation but it was my favorite class. He's hilarious but also really knows his stuff. He's also very willing to help. He stayed after class with me for an hour helping me understand the homework. Take him if you can or you'll regret it!

The class is a tough one, however Gellene will do everything in his power to help you, you have weeks on the home works, and the tests are online, and he does review sessions prior to each. The concepts are tough but if you are RELIGIOUS about attendance and keep up with the homework you will get an A. I had him in class not online.

Greg is an awesome teacher and he is definitely there to help his students. There is quite a bit of homework but goes pretty quickly. I would highly recommend taking this course.

The major specific course for CHEM1307 is not an easy class. The course load is much higher than regular chem classes. However, Professor Gellene is one of the greatest instructors I have ever encountered and he's hilarious. Do your homework (yes I know it's a lot), study for the tests, and DO NOT SKIP RECITATION. Don't blame your laziness on Greg.

If you are dedicated and willing to put time into completing the homework (which counts for 40% of the grade) you will do fine. He is hilarious and extremely helpful during the weekly recitations. There is no reason anyone should fail the online class. My only issue is that I had trouble retaining information from the online class.

I loved this class! All you have to do is do your homework (40% of grade). You have unlimited chances so its hard not to get a 100 on them. Go to recitation and write down questions and study those for the tests, they help a lot. He's super funny and a great professor. He really knows what he's doing. I also plan on taking his chem 1308 online too!

Amazing, dedicated, helpful, engaging instructor. Really funny and easy to listen to. Gellene makes chemistry less painful. I would take his classes over any other instructor!

Greg was a really great teacher. I took his online Gen Chem I class and he made me understand everything so easily. He hosted a recitation once a week which was part of your grade and his homework was easy to understand and helpful when it came to studying for tests. Overall awesome teacher.

Took 1308 online, TONS of homework!!!!!!! Tests are proctored through Respondus Lockdown Browser, he is really funny and cool

TAKE THIS CLASS!! Took 1308 online & actually enjoyed learning chemistry for once. It's a lot of teaching yourself but I learned more from this course than any other chem class. There's homework often, but it's very doable and worth it (he adds 10 points to your hw grade if you make 90+). He has a great personality/attitude, you have to love him

Attendance (in person or online) is mandatory for recessitation as you are graded based on your correct answers sent in via electronic device. I took this online and really enjoyed Greg's sense of humor and in person visits, but I know I would have done badly at an in person chem class at Tech. Glad I was able to do it online with him.

Dr. Gellene is hilarious. He is by far my favorite professor at Tech. He really cares about his students and is all for you succeeding if you put in the effort. Hands down an amazing teacher!

I took Gellene's online 1307 as well as this one and both times he was an incredible professor. He gave amazing lectures during our weekly recitations that helped tremendously for exam prep. There's a substantial amount of homework and it's hard, but it's the biggest part of you learning in this class. Overall, great prof and great class.

Greg gives you lots of options to keep your grades up. He made the material much easier to understand than other professors. He's also super funny and if you keep up with the homework you'll get an A. Make friends in the class it will come in handy I promise. (poor tip: print the reviews and work them out, the exams will be much easier)

GREG!! I took Greg for an online chem class and had to show up to his recitation every thursday. If you don't go to recitation you won't pass, recitation is basically an hour long participation quiz. But he gives you all the answers! Easy tests if you do the homework and show up to class. He also thinks he's funny which itself is really funny.

A hilarious, informative, and amazing teacher. You will get an A, no questions asked, IF you do the homework when it is assigned. It is imperative you do it, despite the frequency and length of it. If you stay on top of your homework, you are prepared for the tests and the final. If you need more help, he has lovely office hours and good reviews.

Great, hilarious teacher! I took an online class with him; I'm not very good at chemistry, but even with one failed test I still managed to pass the class with a high B. How? The homework! There's a lot of it but by completing at least 90% he gives you full points - it saved my butt and propelled me to a relatively good grade.

By far one of the easiest professors you can get. I took an online Chem 1307 course and finished with an A. He basically gives you the test questions in his discussions so i highly recommend going to them. There is a lot of homework but it counts towards almost 50% of your grade. do the homework! Great guy, funny and i would definitely take again.

Gellene is a very enthusiastic teacher and works very hard to get the class engaged and learning. As long as you pay attention in class and stay on top of the homework you will do great. Take good notes during the lecture because often he will say something in lecture that will come back on a test.

Professor Gellene is fantastic! I took 1307 and 1107 online. 1107 was hybrid, which is the best thing ever. Homework is due every MWF @8am. There are 3 tests and the final. He's very good about answering your questions about homework. The labs aren't that hard, just be careful with calculations on the lab reports. Have Fun!

I took 1307, 1107 (hybrid), and 1308 with Professor Gellene. Absolutely fantastic person, great humor and really does care how and what you learn. The weekly recitation is a really good time to ask him any questions that you have about the material. Gives plenty of opportunity to do well and succeed in his class.

Be sure to read the textbook and are able to understand the homework or the exams will be hard

THE LEAN MEAN CHEMISTRY MACHINE GREG GELLENE

Greg is a cool dude. I highly suggest his online Chemistry classes. Very homework heavy, due 3 times a week at 8AM but honestly if you can keep up you'll have an A no problem. HIGHLY recommend if Chemistry isn't completely your forte.

Although I am not taking him for chemistry next semester, Gellene rocks. (Tests are online and a proctor watches you through a webcam which gave me anxiety.) He is very helpful/accessible outside class and will help you with any questions. There is a lot of homework, but that is an easy 100 on 30% of your grade. Recitation too, but 10%.

If you are a chem-E or chem major you can get Gellene in person-Do it. Being an engineer, I just want to know how to get the right answer, so lectures only useful if you have questions about hw/exam problems. Taking notes on hw tells you easily how to do the problems and Gellene clears up anything you are confused about. he always brings donuts.

Dr. Gellene is seriously a great professor! I took his class online because I heard it would be easier than in person, and boy am I glad I did. There is a ridiculous amount of homework, but you have plenty of time to get it done. During recitation, he's very helpful with answering questions. Really enjoyed being in his class!

Took 1308 online and I understood way more chemistry than I did in 1307. Gellene's course is a solid choice, and I'm glad I did it.

Greg is the best. It is an online class but you still have to work for it. 60 is a C so it makes it easier.

I love Dr. Gellene! He's hilarious during weekly recitations and does similar questions to the homework. Homework is due every other day during the week but it isn't impossible to pass it all since it gives you multiple tires and tells you how to solve it if you got it wrong. I learned more in this course versus taking it in a giant lecture hall.

Easy A! As long as you keep track of all the dates, you should be fine! Get started on all assignments ASAP and always double check due dates! There is recitation, basically just practice questions, once a week, taking notes over homework helps with that a ton! Material is so easy to learn and apply, but not necessarily to retain..

Take this class online if you can. The people who actually have to take the class on campus do the exact same work as the people who are doing it online. There is 1-2 hours of homework due every other night (the worst part), a weekly recitation (pretty much an online quiz), and 4 tests. Homework is worth 40% of grade but it's not too bad.

I took this class online and it was AWESOME! The homework comes out three times a week and really is not that difficult. I didn't even do all of them and I still had a 94% hmwk average at the end but make sure you keep the average up because it is 40% of your final grade. Always responded the my emails the day of! Super easy if you do the work!

extremely cool and funny! do your work, ask questions. lecture is slightly scattered sometimes but it will all add up in the end. Lots of homework and recitation grades, which outweigh test grades. Getting a few Cs on tests arent as bad if you make all As in homework, and try to learn.

Dr. Gellene was a great professor who I took for gen chem I & II. Chem II has a lot of homework, but it's not unmanageable. While his lectures can sometimes go off base from the tested material, you should be fine as long as you study the homework & practice tests he provides. He offered extra credit on the homework grade for Chem II.

Thank the lord homework is 40% of the grade as I made Cs on all my tests and still made it out with a B in the class, would have preferred the classroom setting but the weekly recitation with Dr. Gellene was sometimes helpful..?

Honestly made me fall in love with chemistry, he is so funny keeps me entertained during a 9:30 which is not an easy task. Fantastic man, gets you the information you need while also cracking jokes. Homework is heavy but its not hard and it helps you drastically on the test. Recitation is kinda fun on Monday mornings with a glass of wine.

This was my favorite class for my first semester. Prof. Gellene was funny, helpful, and had great lectures. The homework was copious and time consuming; however, it was structured to help the student learn the subject. Tests were hard and you needed to study the material. My class was for majors only and we did more homework than the other 1307

Homework assigned every MWF and due soon after worth 30%. Tests are multiple-choice, on BB, and proctored through Proctorio, not taken with the rest of the 1307/8 students. You have a recitation online at 9:00 am on Fridays worth 10% If you keep up with your coursework and go to recitations, you should not have a difficult time making an A.

I took his online chem 1307 course and this class has tonss of homework due MWF and its a big part of your grade but once you get the hang of it it becomes routine and it's not so bad. Make sure to attend recitation because it's a big part of your grade. Tests are online and proctored. most important part of this class is doing the homework on time

Had him for the online course. There's a TON of homework, but the homework is worth 40% of your grade, so if you do all the homework you have a good chance of getting an A. There's also a lot of extra credit which got me over a 100 for the class. He was a really nice and funny guy during the weekly recitations. I definitely recommend him.

I suppose class is different in person versus online but taking it online is great. We meet once a week and it's for a grade so that helps. But if you do the homework on time and do the extra credit there is no way you can't pass with at least a B.

I took his class online and asynchronous. We met once a week for recitations which is pretty similar to Kahoot. You basically have to learn everything by yourself. Do all the extra credits so you won't have to worry about doing badly on the exams. It is pretty hard to teach yourself chemistry but if you put in effort it is an easy A.

The class is no problem if you do all of your homework, which there is a lot of. If you bomb a few tests do not worry at all, as long as your homework score is high it will pull your grade up significantly.

I took Chemistry from Prof Gellene online this past semester. The class was homework heavy & there are also lots of extra credit opportunities with the homework assignments. Tests are proctored through Proctorio as well. As long as you do extra credit & the hw, study for tests, & attend recitation sessions, youll have an A in the class no problem.

This is the easiest chem class at tech!! The class is heavily weighted on homework which makes it way easier to boost your grade. Theres a ton of extra credit in the homework, I ended up finishing with a course grade of over 100 because of it! Take him!

DO NOT wait last minute to do assignments, you will be miserable. His class will consume very much of your time but it is so organized and the website he uses teaches very well. KEEP TRACK OF DUE DATES. DO ASSIGNMENTS IN ADVANCE. Extra credit on every unit was awesome, take advantage of that. Very great teacher

I enjoyed taking Gellene for CHEM 1307. He is very funny and answers questions. His class mostly consists of homework, so be ready for that. He gives homework every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, and it is easy IF YOU READ THE CONTENT or The Organic Chemistry Tutor. Please take the Exam Practices if you can. I needed .25 to have an A.

He uses MindTap on Cengage which is where you are going to access all your homework. If you go to the SI sessions, do his homework consistently and ask him question, you should be able to pass his class. As long as you do all the homework, you should be able to pass.

He is a great professor and makes the recitations entertaining with his commentary. Mindtap is also a nice software to use and you can easily get good grades on the assignments. You do have to study for the tests to do well though. I have had 3 during each semester. If you actually take the time and do the work, you will do very good.

If you take this class, DO YOUR HOMEWORK! Homework + recitations make up 50% of the grade. And the extra credit is on the homework, you can literally make up 60% of your grade just by getting homework done. Which means you can average less than 40% on tests and still pass. But to be fair, the tests are pretty difficult. And there is a lot of hw.

DO. THE. HOMEWORK. Its tedious and takes a lot of time but like other reviews say The homework and extra credit save your life. I would take this class ONLY if you don't have to take more Chemistry, if you do I'd look elsewhere. Be prepared to self teach almost all of the content. Professor is super nice and charismatic though. Tests are DIFFICULT.

Do all of the homework! Most of your grade is homework. There is a lot of extra credit. If you do both, you'll pass for sure. Like all chem classes, the tests are difficult. It is a online class, so you will need to teach yourself, but he does a recitation zoom that helps fill in the gaps. If you need help, he'll do what he can to see you get it.

For anyone needing to take Chem 1307 or 1308 I would highly recommend choosing Dr. Gellene as your professor. The class is hard but if you do all of the homework and the extra credit you can make an A in the class because of his grading scale. In my opinion, if you don't make the grade you're wanting, it is more so because of you than him.

Took him online and he offered a lot of extra credit for each chapter. The A is definitely doable if you do the extra credit. Make sure you finish your homework too. Exams were mostly like practice exams.

I loved greg. He's funny and good at explaining the material quickly but still effectively. I will be taking him again next semester for CHEM 1308.

Class is homework heavy, do the reading and you'll understand the material very well. The lectures can seem long, but he does his best to make sure we understand and to alleviate some of the seriousness. Extra credit is available and you should do it!! Tests are not open-note so be sure you understand the material.

On every chapter there are two chances for extra credit which could boost your grade by a lot. He always makes the lectures interesting, but sometimes he rambles so you're mostly going to be taught by the homework assignments more than class. However, he's very easy to reach if you're struggling with the material.

Dr. Gellene truly loves his job. Lectures are full of humor and fun stories. There is a lot of homework, but it is relatively easy and REALLY helps to reinforce the material. He answers a ton of questions. Wonderful exams and exam reviews. Good extra credit. Easily the best chem teacher at Tech.

I had him for both CHEM 1307/08 and it was the best experience that I had with Chemistry. He is fun & quirky. The pace is tangible and lectures are not hard to follow. He provides a lot of resources before exams, such as study guide, practice exam, lecture day dedicated to questions. Do the homework and extra credits assignments. It will help!!!

Homework and class participation accounts for half the grade, so don't skip them. A lecture once a week is very helpful for anything you didn't understand about homework. Great teacher, and very funny.

He was a great professor. READ the chapter in the book before going to class. It will make the lectures much easier. Lectures are fast paced be sure to pay attention. Lots of extra credit, with tons of homework. Great professor would take again.

don't take his online class and expect to be coddled through the semester. he says from the start that the class is on your own. if you can't teach yourself DO NOT take his online class. however gellene is a good professor, he'll answer any and every question asked, and go into more detail if needed to make sure you truly understand. i liked him

An interesting and active lecturer, he provides a lot of helpful information to learn during class time. At times he splits of on strange tangents, telling somewhat relevant stories, but apart from that he is a pretty easy to follow lecturer.

This professor is great and homework material is best learning material I've had in a long time. His class is entertaining and kept fun. I would say the concept of chemistry is hard, but he makes it as easy as he can.

His lecture style doesn't really suit my learning style but he's a great teacher. He's very funny, down to earth, and you can tell he really wants everyone to pass the class. He gives SO MUCH EXTRA CREDIT. Just make sure to stay on top of the millions of homework assignments and you should be set for a good grade.

I didn't really show up to his lectures, bc tbh it was too early in the morning, but when I did, he was very entertaining and you can tell he loves his job! He was super helpful. If you do the homework and read the textbook, there's no reason you shouldn't get an A.

There is a lot of homework but also a lot extra credit alongside it. Very fun Professor. The class is difficult but Professor Gellene makes it way easier. Definitely recommend for CHEM1307.

I took this as an online course after failing in person twice, outcome was so much better and this professor truly helped me understand. Thanks Prof Greg

He is the best chemistry professor. Chemistry is obviously pretty difficult but he actually makes it enjoyable. His lectures are super funny and he is always keeping us engaged, he is also very caring and understanding. He genuinely wants us to succeed. There is a lot of homework but a lot of extra credit and his test are similar to homework.

He is an engaging lecturer until he pulls out the practice problems. If you take him in person at the end of the semester you can take the ACS exam as a grade floor. There are 6 assignments due every week. If you don't want to read the textbook or teach yourself, show up to classes because he doesn't use powerpoint or plan to get notes from others.

This class is SOO EASY! 40% of the class is homework grades and you get unlimited try's on it. Also test are only 6% each so you could bomb the test and still get an A. He gives extra credit for every test, and give you 2 extra days past the due date to do work with a 10% penalty.

I loved Professor Gellene, he was an amazing Professor and I would take him again. His class is easy and you learn a lot, there is a bunch of extra credit and homework is 40% of your grade with unlimited attempts. Recitation was fun and he encourages working together.

Do the extra credit! Do the homework! Don't skip recitation! That is the best foundation for a good grade in Greg's class.

Just do the homework on time, complete as much extra credit as you can, and be sure to attend recitation lectures! If you do all that, you can easily get an A, even if you don't do well on any of the exams! He is a great guy and I highly recommend him!

Loved the 1307 online course offered by Greg Gellene. Just avoid the pitfall of forgetting your HW (its worth 40% of ur grade), and make sure you attend the weekly recitations, and you should at the very least be fine. Plentiful extra credit is also available in the course to boost your grades and help you earn an A. Would hands down recommend.

The format closely mirrors his online 1307 course. Doing well on HW and recitation, along with doing extra credit becomes more important as the tests are more difficult and harder to do well on. I would easily recommend this course as doing the easy stuff makes a good grade and learning the content manageable. Would take again

Gellene is an amazing professor! He makes the course extremely easy to pass. He allows for much extra credit and even curves the recitation extremely!

Greg is a really good professor. He cares for all of his students and really wants them to know what they're learning. Lots of extra credit, and very fair grader. Put in effort, be present, and you'll have no problem passing. He will work with you for any troubles you are having, learning or technology wise.

Took this class (CHEM 1308) online over the summer and it was a doozy! 40% of the grade was homework but it was by no means a breeze. I recommend doing the "review" extra credits and save the challenges for the end of the course. Greg is an amazing dude who is very empathetic and hilarious! I took recitation-based rather than lecture-based.

He's a little grumpy and even though the course load is a tad annoying the class is actually beneficial. Especially for those in need of slower paced and more detailed lessons. As much as i found myself annoyed with G Money and his moderate grumpiness he has set the class up well.

I had Dr. Greg for both Chem 1&2, both online. The course is self-paced and although you are mainly taught by the Cengage system, it is very well made and you shouldn't find yourself lost. Homework is 40% of your grade and extra credit goes into this category. As long as you do the homework and the extra credit you will easily get an A and learn.

Dr. Gellene is constantly bringing up new information for every single lecture. Sometimes, it can be difficult taking notes, so I recommend reading the chapter from the textbook before going to class, so that you can understand and reinforce what he is saying. He does assign tons of homework, but it really helps in preparation of his online tests.

he is fun during zoom class but you have to make sure to pay attention otherwise youll miss a question. homeworks were easy but you have to do them every other day. also they are due at 8am so make sure to do them the night before.

Greg is honestly a very good professor, you do learn a lot of the content from the hw on Cengage but he always explains the concepts in class after you complete the hw. A good way to be on top of your work is to do the assignments immediately as they get released. And you should also read the textbook as well. He offers so much extra credit too!

He was THE GOAT. the best professor in the world, he taught a lot in the recitation meetings and had an amazing sense of humor. He was very optimistic and constantly helped the students, he had lots of football references so I would recommend learning a few references to get along with him. Easy Grade, make sure to do all the homeworks!

One of the easiest professors at Tech. TONS of homework but also gives extra credit. Highly suggest making a groupchat for this class to exchange questions and answers.

This class is so easy, BUT if your major requires you to actually know chemistry I would suggest taking it in person. Otherwise, homework is easy and the exams are a guaranteed A if you know how to .... manipulate things...... easy class.

He is a very good teacher. The way he grades helps if you're not very good at test taking, which I am not. I bombed my first test with a 40 and made 75s on the rest and am going to pass with an A since his tests aren't weighted very much. MOST IMPORTANT JOIN A GROUP CHAT FOR THE COURSE!!!! Especially for homework questions!!

Super easy class. Join a group me and you'll for sure get an A!

Really loved his class and his extra credit opportunities

He is overall a good professor. He give out a lot of extra credit through homework so if you bomb your exams it won't hurt you, so it's really good for bad test takers. I suggest making a group chat and doing the extra credits on the chapter homework. If your major requires you to understand chemistry and apply it, this is not a good class to take.

took online cengage course which was pricey but very easy. it was a lot of simple easy courses. exams are proctored but theyre easy and he gives extra credit options. would take him again if i could. super easy and do able course.

Chemistry is a tough course for a lot of people as it was for me too, honestly greg was funny in class and was always in a good mood, something that is very important to me. His lecture style could be a bit hard to understand as he just wrote notes on a paper that were not easy to follow. Attendance was irrelevant but I would take him again.

He is a good professor but its chem I did not like the class and it being an online class made it worse but its easy to pass if you do the hw thats it. It takes a lot of time but you can fail every test but still pass

Lectures are answering questions off a slideshow for grade. Had to self-teach content. Homework is a large chunk of the grade and have 10-15 assignments per week. Tests are proctored online but only 25 questions. Professor Gellene grades fairly and will give extensions if asked. Overall, would take him again and was an easy A.

Great online class. Lots of homework but if you stay on top of it than you will succeed.

By far the best chemistry professor at TTU. His mandatory recitations were very helpful, and the participation during Zoom meetings made the class engaging. He is clear about expectations from the start. There's a lot of homework, but it's very doable if you stay on top of it. Highly recommend him!!

If you're taking Chem 1301 with Greg Gellene, just beware it's very homework heavy, but if you do the homework and don't bomb the exams, you should be completely fine. He provides practice exams that are fairly similar to the real exams. (Also, the exams are a lot easier than the homework.)

This class has LOTS of homework, but you can easily pass if you do it! There's 5 exams throughout the semester. Along with once a week zoom meetings for participation. Get ready to read, this class is hefty. If you stay on top of your work you'll pass. Greg is straight foward with his grading criterias. Lab is boring but it is what it is.

Very homework heavy, his zoom lectures are very helpful.

If you need an A in chemistry, I highly recommend taking this class with Greg Gellene! The tests are definitely manageable, even if you don't get the best grades on them. The key to passing this class with an A is to do the extra credit, it boosts your grade. He is so nice and you only have to join a zoom once a week. I highly recommended!

Lots of homework but lectures weren't bad and sometimes were fun. He's a funny guy.
