Good, fair teacher.
He was very in touch with us understanding the labs and doing them that he did not care so much about the tests, he was awesome take him for astro
cute and smart but stares at the ceiling during lecture.
covers chapter subjects in seconds.not very articulate.
Alright so Mitch isn't the most intresting teacher, I had a hard time staying awake, but as long as you show up and do your labs, you can pass.
very thorough, labs are fun, tests are average, learn some interesting information, you do not need to be an astronomy nut to have a good time. will take any class from him. :)
ehh...very boring, i fell asleep a lot, and he puts stuff on the test that he says aren't going to be...so he's very unclear...but if you do the labs you'll be fine
Dr. Haeri is a great instructor. Probably the best I had at Saddleback. The exams are on the tough side, but fair. Do all the work consitently and you will do O.K.
I recommend this instructor. Very fair. Explains the topic well. Do the work and you will get a good grade. Highly recommended.
Very nice, very helpful and listens to his students- and he is very easy on the eyes so that doesn't suck either.
Good instructor. Very fair. Highly recommended
Explains topics well. Does many cool demos. I really enjoyed the class and learned some physics. Take him......
Good teacher, labs are easy, just do the work and you will be ok.. very easy on the eyes as well..
I dont know who the person is who said he is a joke but they are dead wrong!! Not only is he fun and easy to learn from - if he were a joke he wouldn't be Dr. Haeri - jokes don't earn PHD's. You will like this professor.
I agree with the reviewer below. Dr. Haeri's class was from a Joke. I worked hard and learned some Physics. I even passed the class. I was afraid of taking physics. Dr. Haeri made it all worthwhile. This is a good class and superb instructor.

Easy class. Easy teacher. The class meets late @ night, so its hard to stay awake sometimes. Class consists of Tests & Labs & a field trip. Pretty straight forward. This class wont require too much study time, its pretty easy.
Very helpful & very supportive,all you have to do is ask,he's not a mind reader.I thought I was going to fail phscs but I did as he said, asked questns & studied(duh,nobody pretends phscs is easy)I did well.He doesn't hand out grades,you need 2 work,it's collage people.He's a great teacher & I dont thnk he'd be department head if he was terrible.
Dr.Haeri doesn't teach Physics 4a people!! he runs the lab at best. Get your facts straight!
Good Teacher, easy to get along with and sometimes funny. Class is difficult though.He doesnt really go over the chapter all that well. Tends to space off on diffirent things and is really hard to get a grip on what he is trying to tell you. But besides that fun and very cool teacher.
I really enjoy this class. Dr. Haeri gives you ample opportunity for good grades. Best astro-20 teacher in the department.
Find the class good. Some labs are fun. Stick with the labs and you will get a good grade. Also, he is good looking. Enjoying the class!
Noticed a posting (below). Don't judge by looks. Haeri is a really good teacher. Yes, tests are hard, but he grades on a curve. Also gives extra credit. Some movies shown are boring!! All in all, this teacher is highly recommended.
Cool class. We just took a field trip to view stars. You actually get to use the telescopes. Got to look at Mars. Lots of fun. Just good looking is an understatement (he is also in great shape).
This online class fits my schedule. Haeri is flexible, he accomodates lots of changes. grades averaged over several items. good class is you are schedule crunched. and yes ultra cute. lecuters r interesting.
fun class. really enjoy the labs.
Dr.Haeri is a great teacher and if you have the opportunity to take his class, do it. In response to those who take the class to admire things other than his teacing ability,this is not an easy A, so you may want to re-evaluate your ciriculum. And yes ladies, the sceanery is nice however,look but no touch, sorry girls he's married.
He sucks! I came to class and he wrote F=ma and thats it, that was our lecture. I recomend taking phys at IVC. I still got an A but that was because of my background in phys. He takes forever to answer questions and although he is smart, he can not convey the information to students.
Haeri does not teach Physics 4A. You obviously are clueless. He is a superb instructor
Yeah, I wish Haeri taught 4A, he is a great instructor. I am currently taking phys. 20. Highly RECOMMEND him.
Could have learned a lot more if we weren't trying to understand what the heck was being asked half the time. I got a B thanks to doing all the HW but he's too set in his new but not-so-new teacher ways to acknowledge some q's and quizzes made NO sense. (If you think the dark hair/skin guy from CSI miami's hot, then Haeri will be 2.
helpful. There is extra credit. Grades on curve so even if you think you blew the test, you may have done OK. And yes, hot hot hot! which makes going to class exciting.
If you can't process words maybe you should take the english course
Good class, good instructor.
Great professor...very knowledgable! He is also very friendly and understanding! I really enjoyed taking his class, and I learned a lot! great labs with an awesome professor!
I took Haeri for Physics 20 and then took him for Astro-20 since I enjoyed Physics so much. Both classes were great. If asked, Haeri will go out of his way to explain the material. If you care, he cares. Grading: He is very fair. All tests are graded on a curve. And yes, he is good looking and has a great personality.
Mitch Haeri Rocks.. Take this class. He listens. He is also easy going. I learned something this semester.
Good class. He grades on a curve on the exams. I enjoy his lectures even though it is an online class. He is also good lookin. However, he is evern cuter when you get know him. Good teacher.
Really easy. He pretty much gives you full credit for the labs as long as you do them, if you mess up he might take off a few points but it wont really hurt you. Study the study guides that he gives you and you should do fine on the midterm/final. Pretty much as long as you show up every day and study for the midterm/final you should get an A.
one of the best teachers ever in my oppinion. Everything was pretty fair and you have to be pretty lazy not to get an A in his classes. Very interesting lab class and super easy class so take them to fullfill the lab science!learn almost the same stuff i both classes so it's extremely easy!!!
Easy class. Two quizzes,midterm and the final, which are easy if you study the hw notes on his website. NO hw, just extra credit assignments every week. Plus he is extremely good looking, which is always a plus ;]
A fair teacher (he is also hot). You will enjoy this class. Spent a cool night out looking at galaxies ands stars. Tests are on the hard side, but your grade mostly depends on labs. I had fun in this class this semester
ONLINE COURSE-- Very straight forward in the orientation and sylabus. While he assigns readings every week, the answers to homework and quizzes are more easily foun online.

Great Teacher, really easy class, Just keep the answers to the quizes and you will pass all of the finals and midterms.
THE EASIEST CLASS I HAVE EVER TAKEN...
Took him for Astro 25 as well. Easy class, really nice and wants you to learn. Enjoys teaching and the midterm and final are cake if you study. Just do the labs for 25, and the homework for 20 and it should be an easy A, no problems!
I took astro 20 and 25 with him, and he rocks. He is sexy as hell too. Take him if you can b/c he is really smart and really understanding. He wants you to do well! Seriously he is really hot. Do it.
Online class- SO EASY! All the answers are on ask.com. TAKE THIS CLASS! As long as you submit all of the quizzes and homework on time, its an easy A!
Great prof at Saddleback. Great lookin. Great smile. Great personality. Inspiring. Easy to talk too. After taking Astro 25 I went and bought a telescope. I wish Dr. Haeri tought more classes. I dont know about easy. I had to work for my grade.
bright guy
took him online.Since you have to go through the book to find the answers to quizzes and questions, you learn a lot. You can't find all the answers on ask.com like the other person said. The quizzes and questions are easy if u read the chapter. The tests are easy too, if you actually do your work. A great online class and he's a really smart guy.
great teacher. i only got 3 hours of sleep before each lab and still had tons of fun. for a physics class, the tests are easy. you must read the chapters! he is very good about answering questions thoroughly when they are brought up and he will give his personal time to help students that are not understanding the material (very hard to find that).
Took online class. Textbook a little ambiguous. Quiz and questions due every week but not difficult. Gave plenty of time to get midterm and final completed. Highly recommend the class. If you have questions, emails you promptly.
He is deff a hottie! very nice guy, deff knows his stuff.. do well on all the labs, fail the midterm and final and still get a B.. I wish he taught more subjects..!
TAKE THIS CLASS!!!! I took the online class and it was the easiest A of my life. The only work is one quiz and some short answer questions per week. You can find most answers online without opening the book. Gives you plenty of time for midterm and final. If you want an EASY A take this class!!!!

His lectures are interesting to listen to and he really teaches you the information in class. If you attend every class, you will get an A. There was only one lab outside of class and one feild trip that was fun to go on. His tests are short and to the point and he doesn't try to trick you at all. he's awesome and sexy!!!
One of the best profs. Also great lookin and easy to listen to. One of the few profs you can actually talk too.
DO NOT TAKE THE ONLINE COURSE!! big mistake.if u want to feel stupid and useless take it.u wont understand any of it and hes not helpful at all when u email him.u pretty much teach yourself a subject, where half the time u cant even pronounce the words in the questions he asks.u cant find any of the answers to any of his questions either.STAY AWAY
Take the online course. Be sure to check online for resources!!
He must be very busy because he doesn't answer emails if you have questions, and posts the assignments late all the time.
the online class is straight forward and easy to understand. take this class.
I took both Astronomy 20 and 25 with this professor, and both classes were great! Astronomy 25 was a very straight-forward class, and the lectures were not too painful to sit trough. He is good at answering questions, and he tells you what will be on the midterm and final. Astronomy 20 online was easy too. I got a B. I definitely reccommend him!
He's really nice but something must be going on b/c he seems soo scattered. When the class didn't understand something and asked for further explanation, his explanation was even more complicated. Don't take this class online unless you really already understand Physics! But he is nice and grades on a curve.
Take the online course as it is straigtforward. What the deadline postings carefully and you will do fine. Don't expect responses to your emails as it rarely happens.
took the online class - Easy A
Very cool guy...very nice and understanding.
One of my all time favorite professors. Very nice, cool, and interesting guy. Also, very approachable and helpful. He will babble on sometimes, but mostly it's more in depth information about what you're learning about. But as long as you're interested in astronomy, you'll be into what he's saying.
Take the class online if you can understand the textbook on your own. There are no notes or lessons (100% work from the text) but the assignments are pretty easy. He usually doesn't check his emails and only goes to Blackboard once a week, so you might have to go to his office if you need any help or if you have technical difficulties.
This guy is the worst teacher EVER!! He does not repond to e-mails, posts assignments and quizes late(like 3 or 4 days late if at all), does not seem to like to return calls either! He supposedly has a PHD but you would never know beacause he cant seem to answer any questions. INCOMPETENT!
Easiest online class ever. Everyone in my class is really annoying and freaks out because he posts assignments late, but he always allows ONE week to complete no matter what. He doesn't respond to emails but I have never needed to email him because it's self-explanatory and EASY EASY EASY.
Everything that is wrong with tenure! Canceled labs with no notice several times, grading was done very late, and ill prepared for class. It was laughable!
The only reason that students can tolerate him is that he gives open-book and open-notes exams. He's never prepared for the lectures. He needs to rely on the solution manual to solve HK problems. It's byond embarrassing. How the hell did he get his degree? This semester, he's on "medical leave." This guy seriously has some issues.
You have to teach yourself the material. He comes to class ****. Notes are completely useless. Test are open notes and open text. Have fun!
This teacher is awesome! The kids who say he is unprepared and dumb are the ones with C's and D's who are dumb. He is the chief, the commissioner, and the police!
I dont know what people are talking about. This professor is the best there is at Saddleback.
I took his Astronomy class online, and it was one of the easiest classes I have taken. Everything is really self explanatory and the assignments aren't too hard. As long as you put in some time this class will be an easy A!
(phy 4A class in Spring 2010) I was often frustrated by his disorganization. Before he took the "medical leave," he gave a weird lecture where he kept repeating a few key terms(I'm not joking). The whole class was shocked. His lab instructor/assistant Mr. Brei took over, and I think he taught so much better. I wish Mr. Brei would teach phy 4B
I have mixed feelings about this professor. He seems to be very nice. However, his lectures aren't very good. My friends that had him for physics complained about him. I really don't know if their criticisms are fair. In his class, YOU HAVE TO SELF-TEACH YOURSELVES THE MATERIALS. Never expect any kind of lecture handouts/notes from him.
(in progress) Todd Brei told Professor Haeri that in the previous semesters some students just put the solutions on the "cheat sheet." Therefore, Professor Haeri does not offer open book and open notes exams any more! We will just have to study hard! Past students were just darn lucky! My friends and I wish we had him a lot earlier!
Great if you're looking for an easy class to add. He pretty much gives you the answers to all labs and you work in group. Labs are most of the grade by the way. Also he reviews for tests the week prior (don't bother with notes, it all seems like he never mentioned it). It's hard to talk to him and he know's his stuff, just not how to teach it.
If u can pick up a Chinese book and learn Chinese, then this class is for you. Doesn't lecture at all. he expects you to learn on your own. I have gotten a's and b's in all my upper level sciences and math, intill I met this teacher. I studied for 20 hrs this week and on my first test it was still hard as hell, it's hard!
I took this class online thinking it was going to be an easy A but its a really hard class. The professor is rude and inconsistant. If you dont already like science of astronomy dont take this class.
NOT an easy A. Prof. tells that only midterm and final are timed, but some of his quizes are timed when you don't expect it. He says to skip a chapter, then you realize that questions to the other chapter include info on the skipped chapter. Confusing and not very clear instructions. Would NOT recommend his online class- it's very stressful
easy teacher. he gives you the answers to the labs, which is half your grade. so it's really easy. half the class is on the rooftop looking at stars, so it's more fun than most of your classes, recommended
Class is hard, he is helpless, but its a fair class. If you do the all Focus questions, you can get an A or B easily. took him for both 4A and 4B
awesome professor!! funny guy!! drinks out of a beaker haha!! real easygoing personality. midterm and final are difficult but passable. if you take this class, go on the field trip it is awesome!! take this class in the fall!! i took it in the spring semester and it was cloudy every night so we did not use the telescopes that often.
Very good Physics teacher. You learn a lot. Tests are challenging, but he is fair. I highly recommend this class.
Best class on campus. This is a fun class with a really good professor
I love this class. If you like observing stars you will like this class. It also helps to have a really cute professor to look at.
Prof. Haeri is a great teacher. He often explains or does things that make the class more fun and interesting. Tests are easy because they are problems in the book and he gives you the range of numbers that he can pick. DO THE PROBLEMS I cannot stress that enough. Physics 4B is a tough class but if you have Haeri you'll be okay.
This teacher is AWESOME!!! I was very scared of taking this class due to the difficulty. He makes it so much fun and helps you understand. He is a very fun teacher and cares about his students. If the class is still open go sign up NOW! You won't regret it. Homework is not overwhelming. Attendance? you have to be there or else you miss the labs.
The students like him because his test problems are all from his focus problems(a certain problems from the textbook homework). Easy A if you remember the solution of those problems. You don't even need to understand them, and half of the class don't understand because his lecture is NOT understandable. He needs solution manual to aswer question.
So helpful. Easy tests and labs are the majority of the class. If you invest time and show up to classes, then you can pass with a good grade. Awesome awesome teacher!
Great professor. I took 4a from other instructors at Saddleback. Haeri is by far the best. I highly recommend him if you want to learn Physics.
If you only want to have a good grade instead of learning something, go ahead take him. Or else STAY AWAY from him. I don't even know how he becomes a professor. He lectures TERRIBLE. Ok, in another word, he can barely explain problems clearly. Students take his class because he tests homework problem from solution manuals. Waste of time.
I really enjoyed this class. Professor Haeri is passionate about the subject, and did a pretty good job explaining things. He was extremely straight forward on what he expected for tests. The majority of the class grade was based on labs, which weren't too bad. Only negative on this class is that it's late at night (necessarily) and long.
Grade is mainly based off labs, there is a midterm & final but they are easy as long as you take notes & pay attention. Not a ton of book use, lectures are the main source of information so take notes. Haeri is nice & as long as you show interest in the class & work hard you should get an A.
Weekly quizzes & discussion questions with a midterm & final. Textbook is the main source of information for the tests & quizzes. Study hard & do the work & you should be fine. Only problem I had was that sometimes questions on the tests weren't always covered in the chapter assigned that week.
Interesting and enthusiastic professor. He makes learning physics enjoyable. Unfortunately I have a very hard time with Physics so I had to work VERY hard for my A. I barely managed it. But if you go to his office hours and show him you care, he will never turn you away. Once you prove yourself he'll want to make sure you get an A. Highly reccomend
This professor is great. He is one of the best Physics professors at Saddleback. Highly recommended.
I was really interested in the subject so I probably shouldn't have taken the class online. The material is pretty dry when you are just reading the book on your own (you need the book), but anyways the class is pretty simple what's you get the hang of it. Easy A if you keep up with all the assignments
The class itself is really easy. It's all about labs, and he's pretty lenient on those as well. Only 1 Midterm and 1 Final. He gives you a study guide and it's pretty much the final. He's really nice and makes the class feel casual.
He made Physics fun. I learned a lot. Very fair. Adds a pragmatic view to Physics. Uses real world examples to Physics. Great professor. This class fills really quick.
One of the best phys professor I've ever had. Dr Haeri is Amazing lecturer, easy going and fair guy. Lectures with example about use of physics in real life. His class was enjoyable and inspirational for me. 2 exams and one final and quizes from homework beginning of each class. Looking forward to take his 4B class.
It's a very easy class. There is a quiz as well as an assignment per chapter each week. You're allowed to miss one weeks hw or it can count as EC. The assignments are a few questions and it doesn't matter if you answer incorrectly, you get points for just completing it. The quizzes are 20 q's from the book. Two exams, 100 q's, all multiple choice.
Took this as a 6 week online course and like others have said, it's very easy. There is an assignment (5 fill in answers) for every chapter and you get credit just for doing it. There is also a quiz for every chapter that is 20 multiple choice questions. The midterm and final are both 100 questions and super easy. Not hard at all to pass with an A.
Haeri is an easy A if you participate and ask for his help. He virtually will do the labs for you if you ask for help, so no excuses to not get 100s on each lab. One mid-term and final, but he gives a study sheet and answers all questions to help you prepare. Lectures are long though. He is not a great lecturer but he wants you to succeed so its ok
I took Professor Haeri's online class... Very strait forward, read one chapter a week then one homework assignment consisting of 5 questions, and a 20 question multiple choice quiz every week on that chapter. Midterm and final are also multiple choice... if you apply yourself you can get an A. All Quizzes and Midterm / Final are timed.
He's a, how should I say, particular professor. While he's easy in terms of labs for Astronomy, his tests are just ridiculous. No multiple choice, all fill-in, which means he expects you to know everything & study hard. He's also against extra credit, which I never understood that type of deal. He's okay, I guess. Online Astro is easy, at least.
His online class is an easy A. just do the online quizzes and the two online tests and pass. no papers, no hassle, pretty straight forward.
I took him for the astronomy lab course, there was no homework besides lab reports but only had 4 formal ones all year. Barely any tests, just show up to class and you got this, super super easy course and he is a great teacher and nice guy
Professor Haeri's lab was super long, however he made the lectures and notes not too boring. For the viewing of the stars we got to work with groups and you are let out pretty early. Make sure you take good notes because the tests are not super easy. His online astronomy 20 class is an easy A! Plus, he is super hot.
Observational Astronomy is an amazing class where students get to explore the stars with telescopes. P. Haeri is charming, creative, and vast with knowledge about the stars. Show up to his class, participate in the labs, and you'll have an easy A. Definitely, sparked my interest in astronomy a step further.
His online class is self taught no lectures and you can't talk to other students in the class. The mid terms and final were tricky and confusing if you don't know astronomy with no extra credit you GPA will drop. He rude and impersonal for a professor
This professor lacks tact and comes off very matter of fact. For example, emailing him a question he way respond to you in a passive aggressive way that doesn't answer your question. The material is extremely difficult with no study guide and 100 question exams covering 5+ chapters. Not an easy class, you have been warned.
I agree with the other students I emailed him regarding the exam and discussion board not working ask questions in the course. He was tactful and short , no emotions Its very hard unless you have taken astronomy ad self taught mid term and exam killed my grade. Don't take his class
I personally loved his class. I took 4A and 4B with him and wish i could take 4C with him. His class consisted of a weekly quiz (if you had the Sat class) and was directly pulled out of the HW assigned. He doesn't collect HW but if you do the HW problems you will do great in the class. YOU NEED TO PUT A LOT OF TIME INTO THE PROBLEMS.
Don't take his class.
If you utilize your textbook and follow each chapter by the week, you will get through this course with ease. Just like every other college course, if you dedicate some time (seriously like an hour a week) you won't have to stress.
Easy Astronomy class, much easier than anything given on campus. You're required to do one quiz and one homework assignment of 5 questions a week. Midterm and final are pretty easy as long as you take some notes and just read the book. Would definitely recommend to anyone who wants to take this online.
He doesn't anything for you. Just he has unclear lectures. He doesn't answer to any question and any email. And the most horrible thing is his lab partner. She can't teach even one word without notes. When she forgot notes she gave chocolate to students to answer. If complain her to professor he will tell it doesn't important but don't believe him.
Haeri is a very charming professor. He is a really nice guy, he is always willing to help. He is a fair grader. His class was very laid back. I would recommend to this course to anyone looking for a medium-difficulty class.
I just took Haeri for physics 4A. The teacher is very friendly. He really wants to make sure you are learning the chapters and are able to do physics problems. He will not hold your hand. 10 hw questions a week. If you master the 10 questions for every chapter by the end of the week , you will 100% pass this class. Physics is very hard. Practice!
The online Astro-20 is one of the most straightforward online classes I have taken. It is very fair. You do have one on one access to the instructor if you live in the area close to the college. Just make an appointment. However, do not assume this subject matter is easy. This is a science class.
If you want an A, then don't take his online Astro class. The only reason why I even got an A was because I had a friend who was also taking the class helping me. You'll get perfect scores on the homework and weekly quizzes but the midterm and final exam will f up your grade. They are 600 points in total. You can't google all the questions
Professor Haeri is the best Physics teacher at Saddleback. I took 4A from Canales and then 4B from Haeri. What a pleasant transition. He knows his stuff and is patient with students. Grading is very straightforward. On exams he pulls problems right out of the textbook. Definitely recommended. I just wish he taught 4C.
Prof. Haeri is a great, fair teacher. Show up, do the easy homework, do flash cards before the exams, and work with your small group: it's an easy A or B. He brought the universe to us and created an exciting class in addition to the observatory. Extra credit IS available if you go to the astronomy club meetings. 2 extra points to your grade/mtg.
Dr. Haeri is a great physics prof. He has a way of making this hard subject understandable. Exams are fair. He team teaches the class with professor Marsh. I highly recommend his physics courses.
There's a quiz and a homework assignment every week, the assignment is based off completion. Quizzes are super easy and 20 questions each week. The midterm and final are more difficult but if you study for it you'll pass. Responds to emails in a timely manner as well. Easy A if you do his assignments and quizzes each week.
Overall, a pretty easy class. The weekly assignments were around 5 questions and if you completed them, you got full credit. The quizzes for each chapter were also very easy and the answers could be found online. Most of the midterm and final could not be googled, but if you study, you'll be fine. He also makes one quiz EC if you complete them all.
No Papers! 1 hw+quiz per week. Plus midterm and final! easy grade if you try. Passed with a B. Definitely need book for hw and quizzes. Def recommend online and in class (have taken both). syllabus tells everything he requires for A in class
He outlines the basics of what you need to know but read read read your textbook and suplement with YouTube vids. Weekly Quizzes are straight from hw problems. Tests are manageable. Labs and quizzes are worth enough you can pull off an A with only getting Bs on the exams.
M Haeri opened my eyes to Atronomy. This is actually a very fund class. Highly recommended.
dont take this online class if you have no motivation to pursue astronomy. i took it to get the credits but wasn't a fan. wish we could have been able to meet once a week so we could ask the professor questions but everything was on your own
This class was awesome depending on the kind of student you are. I'm lazy and just wanted an easy A in a class that I don't particularly have any interest in. There is no discussion boards which is amazing. You have a 3-4 question assignment and a 20-point quiz every week. Easiest class I've ever taken. Buy the book and use quizlets for an easy A
Each week there is one 20 question quiz and 3-4 homework assignment. These quizzes and homework assignments make up 1/3 of your grade, the midterm and final make up the other 2/3. Just read and you'll get an A.
Hes good. Graduated from UCLA, works at a good company too.
i took astronomy online and although there was only a 4-6 question assignment and 20 question quiz per week. the quizzes most of the time didnt relate to the reading. you can find some of the answers on quizlet. i wouldnt recommend this class if you are just taking it for credit you really have to read the book and understand everything.
Astronomy 20 online- Fairly easy class, only one assignment per week which contained 4 to 6 questions. All of the questions he asks can easily be found online if you ever get stuck. His tests were ok, some of the questions on the weekly assignments are also on the tests so if you do the assignments first then you'll get a better grade on the test.
This class was so amazing im sad that he doesn't teach more classes. The observational astronomy class was super easy. The structure of the class from 7-10:50 P.M was basically an hour or two of lecture, then break, then lab. Dr. Haeri is so nice and really works with you. The labs are so easy and where most of your points come from. Amazing prof!
Make sure you get publisher's resources! Prof. Haeri made it sound like it was optional in the syllabus but I had the most difficult time understanding concepts without the MindTap to go with it. Because of this disadvantage he was very helpful and replied quickly to email. He even put a study guide together just for me. BUY MINDTAP ACCESS!
Lectures were best if you already read the textbook. If you stay on top of it, you will succeed. He is very understanding to students and rounds grades.
Great professor even though this class is online. Highly recommended
He honestly is not the best at teaching. He goes a little slow, but that is better than going too fast. He is very nice, likable, and understanding. He only talks about the concept and never went over a single example. His exams are easy, especially compared to other professors I've heard. If you want an easier time in physics, take Haeri.
Highly recommend this class! The class structure is simple, 1 quiz & 1 written assignment each week. There are 2 big test, Mid term & final. Stay on top of your work, you will get an A
Lenient grader, easy tests. Rambles for an hour before letting the class start the lab. Very easy-going and friendly. Maybe don't take this class if you want to really challenge yourself.
Don't take this class unless you're capable of teaching yourself astronomy (and physics, math, and chemistry). He doesn't teach the class. There are no lectures and he doesn't grade the written assignments so you don't even know what you got right. Then he has the audacity to complain about students googling answers.
Dr. Haeri is a great person. Very humble and willing to spend the time to help each student understand and excell. The key with Haeri is communicate!! Too many students feel lost but do not ask questions or take advantage of office hours. He will work with you to get you to where you need to be in a difficult subject for many students.
Took this class for one of my science credits. It is super easy there is 1 assignment each week that's 5 questions & then 1 quiz each week that's 20 questions. I would recommend taking this class for the second eight weeks because it's easy. There are no lectures, essays, or projects. The subject was pretty interesting.
Simple grading, do the work and you can get a good grade.
Its an easy and straightforward class.
just do the weekly assignment and quiz and you will do great.
The class is easy, but there is no teaching or interaction with the course. It's entirely self-taught. There are no DBs, lectures, or Zoom meetings. It's only chapter readings. There's one homework assignment and one quiz per week. The course is an easy A, but I think it would've been better with more engagement.
The class is easy. There is are no DBs, lectures, or Zoom meetings. Each week consists of chapter reading, one homework assignment and one quiz . The homework assignments are question from the readings around 5 questions max 10 and you receive full credit bases on completion. A midterm and a final. The course is an easy A

I was nervous when I enrolled, but it ended up being such a great easy class. If you read each chapter you will do great on the quizzes and 5 question written assignments.
Easy course with weekly assignments and quizzes. Textbook is used but not mandatory. No attendance required. Leveraged Unstuck ai and ChatGPT to breeze through the tests. Solid A!
A good professor, all things considered. One assignment and quiz per week, regular midterm and final. The only thing to remember is that ASSIGNMENTS ARE DUE AT 9 PM. He has an extremely strict no-late-credit policy, and everything is due at 9 PM, not 12. As long as you know that and read the textbook, you'll do fine.
