BEST PROFESSOR EVER

Great Professor! He made the class fun. Attendance is mandoatory if you want the extra points. Very fair with grading. He does not accept late work, so make sure you are on time. took him for the summer so we really didn't use the textbook. Had 5 exams, 3 were take home, 2 in class,he drops the lowest of the take home. Like I said very fair!

He is AMAZING!!! It was my first physics class ever and I got an A. He helps you appreciate the importance of Physics in the world. He is very hands on and uses a lot of examples in class. His lectres are interesting and not boring. He gives full reviews of the test a class before and he makes himself very available to help you with the homework.

Professor is the best. Physics is hard, but he explains it well and curves the class. Tells you exactly what is on the test and give you examples with review. All you have to do is understand the concept and study the review and you will get an A.

THE BEAT PHYSICS TEACHER EVER I REALLY THANK GOD FOR HIM BECAUSE TEACHERS LIKE MR.GIBERT IS ONE IN A MILLION EASY CLASS JUST BE READY TO COME PREPARE AND READY TO LEARN.

Awesome teacher, this guy really brakes it down to make it easy to understand. I don't thing I would have passed if it werent for him

Highly recommended. Tests could not be more fair. The homework is hard, but he is available to help. Study your notes and read the book.

he's a good teacher but sometimes wat he says that will be on the test its somewhat different... but if u do the online homework's u might end up wit a C..

Very animated. Makes class interesting. Informs us what we need to study for the exam. I sometimes got lost, but, hey, it was Physics 2. If you pull your weight, an easy A.

Gibert is an amazng professor, he makes class interesting and really cares about his students. He knows physics is a hard subject, so curves the tests and gives e.c in the hw. you do have to study and do alot of hw but it is possible to finish with an A

He's one of the best teachers/professors I've ever had. He's passionate about teaching and physics, he makes class engaging, he explains things well, and he is fun and kind. You don't have to memorize formulas - he cares more that you understand the physics. I definitely recommend him.

He explains the material pretty well and he does review before the test. Just do the HW and study. He is helpful and does have office hours. Cares for his students even though he might come off as rude. He does curve every test which helps a lot. Study, study, STUDY, do the hw and you will get an A.

He's very straight forward, everything he says he means. Historically, I am not a good student; I did not pass this class because it was easy, I passed because Gibert made it fun, tangible and relatable to the modern world. He's not the easiest teacher but if you're actually looking to learn and have some fun while doing so I highly recommend him.

Prof. Gibert is a godsend to MDC . He knows his stuff and will make it understandable for you. You have to work hard, but your hard work will pay off. His tests are not that bad, and he reviews before the test. If it wasnt for him,i would hate physics

Truly the best professor I have EVER had. Bravissimo Professore!

He is very funny and he actually engages students in the subject. Physics is hard, but he makes it intersting and fun. His tests are hard you must study A LOT to pass with an A. He curves which is a big plus! alot of hw on masteringphysics

Took Gibert for both PHY 2048 & 2049. Great Professor. Let me say, it's not easy to get an A, you have to put in hard work, that's how I was able to. But very helpful, I would recommend him for those who really want to learn.

This guy knows physics, you know what I mean.5's all across the bord.Some people just dont get this subject, a lot of people are scared to ask questionsFor the most part best teacher Ive had made learning fun. Go to class keep up and just show up and its that simple. Same problems on the bord as the test take a pic so you can listen/understand

Gibert is a good teacher. Being trained in a very old fashioned manner, he believes in students learning the concepts in this introductory course, rather than tons of mathematical calculations. If he senses that you try, he will befriend you and teach you how to succeed academically. Your maturity level will determine your semester.

Gibert is by far the best professor I have had at MDC! His class is not easy, but it is worth it because you will learn the material. If you are an engineering or physics student you NEED to take him. He is friendly and will help you along the way. Don't be afraid to participate in his class.

Gibert is an amazing teacher. He is passionate and explains the material very well. He is kind of unorganized with his office hours and he WILL send you a one word answer to your email or not reply at all, but if you really need help, ask him and he will help you. No doubt the material is tough. Pay attention, ask questions and you'll be fine.

Gibert is by far the best professor I ever had at miami dade college, if this webpage was a popularity contest I would give him 555. He will help you but don't expect him to do it unless you show caring. His tests are always curved but they are not easy. The class will always get easier towards the end. TAKE HIM 100%

I second the previous review. Gibert is by far the best professor I had at MDC. There is no memorization involved in this class, just pure problem solving. The test are tough; but if you study and practice the problems he gives, you will do ok. I strongly recommend PLTL for this class. Read the chapter before you come. And dedicate time to study.

Amazing professor, teaches really well and the tests are fair. Don't expect to learn everything in lecture, read the chapter before going to class. For some he has a confusing way of teaching, but if you get it, you will be totally fine. The test is similar to the problems he does in class, PLTL is helpful, study and you will get the A.

Great professor! All I had to do was pay attention and got an A! I'm taking him again for PHY2048

Professor Gilbert is amazing. He's charismatic and makes fairly difficult concepts in Physics easy. He's hilarious and exceptionally smart. He encourages his students to participate in his lectures and makes his lectures fun. Attendance is necessary unless your just a prodigy.

I took this professor for 1025, 2048, and 2049. He is by far the best professor I have ever had. He teaches effectively, even difficult subjects. He motivates his students. The grading criteria is fair and gives student plenty of opportunity and chances to pass with a good grade. Take him!

This is the best professor I've taken at MDC! He is always there for his students, and he does his best to help students understand all lectures. I definitely recommend him and without a doubt I will take him again for physics 1 and 2.

Pay attention in lecture. The class before the exam he tells you the exact format of the free response part of the exams. Exams consist of 10 Multiple choice questions and 2 or 3 free response. You can completely fail the MC and still get an A in the exam if you do great in FR. He drops one exam (3 total) if you do the HW which is SUPER long n hard

He helped me a lot throughout intro physics. At the beginning i was failing the class, but i went to see him and he explained me everything i could do to improve my grade. He proved to be very helpful and even asked me to pass by his office twice a week. He is the best of the best. I'm taking him now for Physics 1 and don't regret it.

He's a great professor! Do yourself a favor and buy the online code ASAP! Watch the videos, do the HW on time, & you'll understand everything better, faster, and earn much needed extra credit. Make a wise use of your daily time, and you'll pass with a good grade. This class is no walk on the park, so your daily effort is the key to your success.

Funny at times, high ego. Gives the option of online hw replaces 1 test (a lot of hw ;) ) , he reviews the tests before the exam, but he doesn't really do the work so you figure it out. He talks but doesn't do problems. Exams have 2 parts: theory and practical. Somelike him, others not. I personally would not take him again, I passed w another prof

Best professor at mdc!! Got to put in work to do well.

Very chill, You do want i tell you you get the grade type of guy. I did take him for a mini term. Study for the midterm and final and do the work.

Really good professor, he is usually funny and sarcastic, but he is very smart and knows everything about physics and he also explains it all very well. If you don't try to understand the topics, you will have a bad time, but if you are really interested, you will pass the class for sure. Would definitely take again!

very good office hours

I actually understand physics thanks to this professor. His lectures are the tests and he always gives extra credit points. Record him and listen to him during his lectures. Do the homework every week and don't leave it to the last day. He gives three tests and a final. Check the tests after he grades them and ask questions. Excellent professor!

"Watered down, lower-level Physics" :) He's the greatest professor you can take at MDC. He wants you to actually learn the physics, not recite formulaic nonsense. A must take if you're going into the engineering field. I recommend getting involved in the learning community (Ask your advisor about it ASAP) Other than that, filter out his sarcasm

Came in to his PHY2048 lecture with no knowledge of physics whatsoever. Left his PHY2049 lecture with a new insight on math engineering and chemistry.

Awesome professor! ! He really explains physics very well, and is happy to help during office hours. I hated intro, but I find that his lectures are actually fun to listen to! He makes you really understand physics. Test was not really that hard, and he gave out all the questions beforehand. Also extra credit. PLTL also good.

Amazing professor

Thank you

He is very intelligent, sarcastic, humourous. His exams are not hard if you study and understand the material. He wants you to understand the material more than anything. If you do the masteringphysics and attend PLTL, you should be able to get a good grade in this class. I would not have passed physics at all were it not for Professor Gibert.

He is the best physics professor. He makes you understand the material and his tests are practically the same problems he gave you in class, he changes them a little bit, but if you understand the material you are gonna be fine. Do the homework and all the extra credit.

One of the smartest and most caring professor I know. Btw, if you can beat him in chess (he is not that good, but he thinks he is), he will let you skip the homework (not really, but please challenge him. it is so fun when he loses)

Best professor at MDC, if you are lazy dont take him. If you care for this class like he does then take him. You wont regret...

Won't pass if you don't put in an effort. He helps a lot during office hours. Exams are fair. He makes physics very interesting with lots of demos and examples. Very hands-on kind of guy.

I did not like physics before but after taking Dr. Gibert, I love it. He is great at explaining complex concepts. This was my first online course in which the class was engaged for the whole 2 hours. I was able to go over the exams during his remote office hours and I learned a lot. Best teacher at MDC so far.

Hard class, need to pay attention and study by yourself sometimes, but he's available after class to help with hw and explains in different ways until you get the content. Gives lots of extra credit, my grade went up by a letter. Kind and wise prof, will help you if you ask him for advice outside class. Will take again next semester.

The best professor I have ever taken. Excellent lectures. He is very helpful during office hours. He is very dedicated. He does everything in his power to help you learn and be prepared. He is very understanding. He actually makes you think, not just memorize. Make sure you study if you want to get an A. If you think he is bad you are WRONGGGGGG.

Easy class! Just do all the assignments and study for the exams. He isnt a tough grader. I passed his class with a 97% :)

Honestly he helps out a lot, has clear office hours and is ready to help if you show interest. If you fail his classes its because you're not putting enough effort and using his available hours to help.

Probably one of the best Professors/Teachers I've ever had. He understand the material and is able to teach it. Attendance is not mandatory for lecture but it is for Labs. Though the Lectures are very helpful and he goes over topics and designs questions similar to the ones on the exam. He is usually able to stay after class to go over material.

Makes physics very relatable and easy to understand but you still have to put in work to really understand the material.

Dr. Gibert is the best, hands down. He is constantly engaged with the class and he goes around the room from group to group, helping you with whatever you need. The one big requirement is that you show up on time, because he cares about punctuality the most. He drops the lowest grade and lets you make up one lab, so he's really generous. 10/10.

At the beginning I was so confused because his methodology is just different, but once I started getting it I really liked it. His classes are engaging and you will never miss your money, class is until the time it is supposed to end always. He makes sure to use his time wisely for you to learn

I took him for 2048 last semester and have him for 2049 right now. He explains very deeply and is a great teacher, I just suck at physics. I've never had to work so hard for an A in my entire life. Your grade is 100% tests. The homework is optional and replaces your lowest midterm grade (I had to do it to get an A).

He really knows. He is the best professor you will ever have. You will learn whether you want to or not. He is one of those professors who want to make you a better person and student at the same time. He is very funny, and his classes are super funny and enjoyable. Look for the FIU ratings, too; they love him there. One hw substitute one test.

His style of teaching is a little more involved. He calls on random students, expecting them to get the questions wrong so he can explain it. He often demonstrates the concepts through short experiments, which is a plus. Will drop the lowest exam grade for homework grade. Homework is due at the end of the course and exams are moderately difficult.

Literally one of the best professors I've ever had. If you actually care about learning and applying that knowledge this is the right guy for you. His lectures are informative and he gives exam recitations for you to practice before the real exam. This guy cares about you as a human being and as a student, and he will make sure you're learning.

Professor Gibert is a Great physics professor/ Teacher. This is coming from somebody who failed 3 test out of the four for his physics 2 class. go to each class, pay attention and dedicate time outside to re-read concepts and chapters. Fair warning he uses mymathlab for the homework, drops lowest test and replaces it with the homework.Good lectures

I took Professor Gilbert for PHY 1025 Summer A (6 weeks), and this course was excellent! Even though it was a short and intense term, Professor Gilbert explained everything clearly and made the material very engaging. The pace was fast, but his teaching style made it manageable and even enjoyable. Highly recommend him for anyone taking this course!

Great and Funny Professor, he cares a lot about his students, but if you are interested in his class and want to learn. Tests are heavy, but extra credits help a lot.

MY GOAT I LOVE U GIBBY

He is awesome. He truly cares about students. His lectures are not only funny but very informative. He prepares you well for the exams and provides recitations that are almost exactly like the tests; he even gives you so many extra points on the exams just for reviewing it with him. He even told us to give him a bad RMP as a joke! Take him!
