Dr. Rezac was a wonderful teacher. He wrote everything we needed to know on the board. He was always willing to help students. He gave handouts that were absolutely spectacular - everything you needed to know for the test was in there. Easy labs. Easy grades. The only drawback is he can get pretty crabby sometimes. Overall I would recommend him.

Never thought I was great at chemistry but I still did not struggle in his class at all. Definitely have to be a fast learner because he kind of got annoyed if you questioned him or asked to re-explain. But he does give many examples and at the beginning of every class he did one problem from the previous lecture. He's humorous and I would retake.

funny guy but when you ask for help he comes across kind of mean. We would joke that he was PMSing. He will help you just dont get offended I dont think he means to come across that way! I didnt buy the book and still passed with an A. You will need to study but its really doable!

Professor Rezac is an amazing and excellent teacher. His study guides are a great source before taking an exam. He grades test very quickly. You don't need the book but make sure you take really good notes and study for your quizzes and exams. Chemistry has never been my thing, but his knowledge made this class so easy.

Dr Rezac has the most amazing lectures and tries to connect concepts to everyday life. His homework helps you prep for the exams greatly. He includes the formulas on his tests so you can focus more on concepts than memorization. His jokes are adorable and make class fun. No extra credit is offered, but if you do the work, an A or B should be easy.

I liked Rezac at first, his class isn't super difficult, but science isn't an easy subject for me. He likes to play favorites, and if you aren't his favorite he is extremely rude to you. If you ask him to repeat himself, he will tell you he doesn't have time. He doesn't explain things step by step and expects you to undestand the whole concept.
