very enthusiastic about chemistry, overall great teacher

Dr. Reeves is a new age Einstien. Loves to teach, still in love with Chem.

Very cute little man, knows what he's talking about, tests are probably right where they should be, but still means you gotta study.

he is very quick in class so u have to keep up and pay attention and take notes, if u miss a class, u wont do well, the curve is good. He is very clear and study sheet is helpful

I liked him. Made a tough class not as painful as it could have been. Reeves=hippie Einstein. he obviously loves what he does though. Very energetic even at 8 am. Nice guy.

Most people just bag on this guy because chemistry is a hard subject for them to understand, but there is not much a professor can do to make you understand a topic besides present the information in a clear and simple way, which he does. He's not bad.

I think he knows chemistry almost too well. He cant really come down on youre level but if you ask him a question he will try to bring it down a little. I think that he is really funny and he looks just like Albert Enstine. Tests are really hard though.

Reeves is a good teacher, but chemistry is VERY hard. He does a good job explaining, but the subject matter is difficult and tests are hard as well. He is willing to give you extra help if you need it, but if you don't need this class for your major, don't take it.

Overall a pretty good teacher. Lectures are often boring but if you choose to listen, you will find he explains the material well. Tests are not bad at all.

Easy A...just prepare for the 3 exams and study the final material for the exam and the rest falls into place...Dr Reeves is a great teacher...extremely clear and the overhead lectures work great.

So yeah, this prof. was clear for me, but i know that for some others, he made very little sense. his tests were on the lower end of fair as far as material covered goes. and the whole policy where the last quarter of the final = half the exam grade sucks.

Not the greatest teacher in the world, but definietly knows just about everything when it comes to Chemistry. Very willing to help students outside of class. Powerpoints are overwhelming and sometimes didn't make sense. Take this class for a challenge.

Awesome teacher. Loves what he is doing and is SO NICE. He is one of the best professors I have ever had

I think he is a nice guy and you can always ask him questions after class and he gives review sessions. The material is not easy but if you study and do the old practice exams you'll do well. The power points are also great so you don't have to just read the book.

He is possible the smartest man on the campus. Oh and by the way last time I had him he looked like a mini einstein. A struggle, but nothing too bad, just had to keep ontop of the work. Makes it seem harder than it all really is, just learn how to work his system and the class. Not your easy A class though.

Very smart man. He is intimidating but is very helpful. In class he tends to talk in circles and not really make sense sometimes. However if you go to the SI sessions and study with the old tests you will do fine.

hes a genius. looks like albert einstein. very nice. PAY ATTENTION IN CLASS, i sat up in the front which helped a lot. he gives trick questions on the tests so watch the details. SI sessions and labs were very helpful. curves tests according to the class average. he says the funniest things sometimes. he made me laugh alot.

Dr. Reeves is hilarious. He looks just like Einstein and he is mostly interesting. His tests are really hard but he curves them according to how everyone else does. He is pretty much a genius which makes it hard to understand him sometimes, but overall he is likeable.

Wonderful, wonderful professor. He is extremely clear when it comes to his lectures, and what will be on the tests and quizzes. Definitely recommend attending the lectures; he is very easy to understand, and is more than willing to answer questions. The tests and quizzes are ridiculously hard, but he curves them. And yes, he looks like Einstein!

Reeves was a really good teacher, and explained things well. He will joke around sometimes which makes class easier. Quizzes are usually really hard, so study what he tells you to.

Awesome professor, who knows his stuff. He will clarify anything for you, all you have to do is ask. His class is not easy but his students tend to do just as good if not better than other classes. He grades fairly. I recommend this if you're willing to spend time studying and coming to class. Otherwise you'll waste your time... not for slackers.

What an AWESOME man! Okay, he looks likes Albert Einstein and mumbles to himself a lot, but he's very easy to understand, and is exceedingly knowledgable about the subject he teaches. If you are interested in learning, you will understand - if you get on facebook every class and you fail, it's your own damn fault.

He is a great professor. His notes are great and his study guides are very helpful and are just like the exam. Put work into the class and you'll get great results.

I absolutely HATE chemistry but loved this class!! Dr. Reeves is probably the smartest man you will ever meet in your life, and i definately recommend his class! WARNING: This is not a class for slackers! tests are hard and actually require you to pay attention in class. OVERALL: VERY GOOD PROFESSOR =)

Excellent teacher and excellent chemistry program! A hugh amount of curving but you really learn a lot if you put in the effort. Do the mastering chemistry problems because they are way harder than the class. Reeves explains everthing perfectly and then shows examples so it's easier to follow. Get Reeves if you can!

Great chemistry teacher! Although his methods on some problems were different than what I have learned before, he still explained pretty well. His tests aren't that bad as long as you study for them. He is super helpful if you ask. Stupid me misread the exam schedule and missed the final, but he let me take it with another class. Totally aweso

He is a nasty little man. Average teaching abilities, nothing great. There are some really cool chemistry teachers so find someone else.

I actually liked this class. I took AP chem in high school so the information was easier for me to learn. He really helps you learn the material, even if he does go a bit fast. Tests are hard, but there's only 3 with a curve and there's grade replacement on the final. Homework definitely helps learn the stuff so do it!

Dr. Reeves is very insightful about chemistry. Anytime that I needed help, he gave me excellent ways to solve my problems. Also, all of the chem profe's make the exam, and they all teach the exact same material. If you can, I strongly suggest taking his class.

The class seems hard at first, but Dr. Reeves really does explain everything so that it makes sense. I wouldn't have been able to do so well in the class without going to the lectures. A lot of online homework though.

Record the lectures so you can play them back later. It may not make sense at first because the material can be complex, but hearing them over sure helps. And go to SI. Seriously. The textbook was a waste of time. Don't bother. Just do the homework online.

I was sincerely afraid of chemistry before taking dr. reeves. In high school I had really terrible chemistry teacher. I now have an A in the class. Dr. Reeves makes every word count: he is very, very clear and concise in teaching, but you don't want to miss a word. Take good notes in class you will be fine. Need help? STUDY and THEN seek him.

Dr. Reeves is a great professor. I really like chemistry. Reading the textbook might seem confusing but he definitely makes everything really clear during class. I definitely suggest going to class, especially if you're unsure. He's the head of the department so he knows what he's talking about.

The material is difficult at first, but when he says, "you are expected to know these for the test." Take his word for it, study your polyatomics, solubility rules, diatomics, and anything else he might suggest. Also have a good understanding in algebra, this course is math intensive. Ask questions, he will try to help. He's a passionate teacher

Reeves is a great man and professor. Just pay attention in class and you are sure to learn a lot. Best chemistry professor I've had. I failed chem 101 the semester before due to not understanding the material at all. Reeves has cleared everything up and I have never felt more secure about the material.

Reeves is a very smart man, and expects a lot of his students. His class was difficult but if you need a thorough understanding of Chemistry, then this class will do just that. I had to teach myself most of the material but I came out with a well deserved A.

Reeves is a good 101 professor if you've already taken chemistry at some point during high school. If not, you would be better off with someone else. He tends to go more in depth with problems rather than pointing out simple facts. Textbook isn't needed but all of his homework is online which you need an access code for.

I really liked this teacher and this class. I took his class for summer session 1 and really enjoyed it. Yes, the class was difficult, but it is possible to do well. I was surprised by how well I did in all honesty. He made jokes throughout the summer and was helpful! I enjoyed having Dr. Reeves as a teacher. If you are dedicated you will do well.

Great professor who cares about what he is teaching. If you don't understand the material he is more than willing to answer questions. Lectures are a must for understanding the concepts.

He is a very good professor and is very knowledgeable in his field. If you don't attend class, you won't pass. He encourages you to ask questions and come to his office hours. You still need to study for the class but if you do all the homework and attend all the classes, you will have an easy time in this class.

Dr. Reeves knows his stuff. He's a good professor and as long as you go to class and print out his power points you'll do just fine. Attendance is not mandatory, but he does do a class activity everyday for a grade. There are three tests throughout the semester that almost always have huge curves (one had 17 points).

Dr. Reeves is a good teacher in my opinion, he goes off topic a lot but usually gets to the point. Chemistry was a class I had to get an A in and it isn't hard if you really buckle down right before the tests. The SI sessions really help for this class if you don't understand something or if you don't like his teaching style.

This professor was actually not too bad, and I suck at sciences. The MyChemistryLab homework was usually on Yahoo because the homework made NO SENSE. I didn't really use the book; I used it for reference but that's about it. The exams were like 24 questions and SUPER curved. Class was pretty boring but he didn't post notes online for us.

Reeves is a very smart man and you can tell he's super passionate about what he teaches. For us he dropped the lowest quiz and if you did better on the final in a certain topic than you did on the exam based on that topic your grade would be replaced by the better score. He does go into tangents a lot so it's best if you have background info in CHM

JIMMY REEVES is a fantastic professor. He'll give you what you need to know - nothing more, nothing less. He keeps his lectures fairly interesting and always makes the information applicable. He is very clear about grades and is always available to answer questions after class. Very knowledgable guy - try hard and you'll get an A.

Dr. Reeves was a very good professor, for CHM 101 tests are the same for all classes, gives grade replacement on final for prior tests. I enjoyed his class very much and with the help of SI sessions, which I highly recommend, did very well. It is very much a class you can do well in if you apply yourself, if you do not you will fail.

Dr. Reeves is a very inspiring professor, but sometimes it's hard to understand what he is saying because he is so good at chemistry. However, his lectures were really fun. If you take him, I would definitely recommend attending the SI sessions because you will learn everything from class again and it will really sink in.
