Dr. Phillip is very cool.His class is understanding and helps the students in any way. don't go to class late and not do homework or else you won't get an easy A+ in the class.I wish he teaches every subject.He makes the course very interesting.You will understand everything he teaches you.#1 MAN!!
it's an easy class if you pay attention and study the hand outs. He has a very good teaching method that enables me to understand the subj. He helps you through out the semester, never neglecting.THANKS. I recommend Prof. Philip to students who are planning to take a chemistry class.
Dr. Phillip is a wonderful professor. I must say that his class is a bit on the easy side and I think it should be more challenging. It makes the transfer students more prepared to handle the four year course work. Otherwise than that, Dr. Phillip is a great professor!
I took Env 11 with him.. HE is the bEst teacher ever.. He really cares about students...He is very helpful, and understanble.. He make science easier for you.. I recomend this teacher to all you.. 100percent
Dr Phillip is one of the best professors. He really cares and believes in all his students. He tough but understanding. I wouldn't recommend him to anyone because I wish I could keep him all to myself. He's that good!!!
Dr. Phillip is an excelent chemistry professor. The way he teaches helps me to understand the assignments. One thing I like about the way he teaches is that He explains and review all homework and class assignments and that's a very good thing. I would recommend him to any student who has to take chemistry.
Professor Neal is the best professor I had in college he is very helpful. Chemistry could be difficult but the way he teaches is so clear that you understand perfectly. He believes in his students potential. He is the best. I recommend professor Neal to everyone that is going to take chemistry.
He is a very concerned and helpful professor, with a light sense of humor and a flexible teaching style.I recommend this course, if its in your course curriculum.
The professor is wonderful and really helpful when it comes to chemistry. I would recommend everyone to take this class if only it is require to. The class may be difficult to some but the professor will help you out with the work.
A VERY HELPFUL PROFESSOR... ALWAYS HAPPY TO HELP AND VERY WELL ORGANIZED IN EVERYTHING..
a very nice professor! I would take another class with him anytime!
professor phillip is the best!!!
if really not a fan of science do not take class with him it will only make you hate science even more
this class is very easy
Professor phillip was very helpful and helped me understand chemistry
Dr. Phillip is an really nice professor and i have learned a lot in his class. Dr. Phillip understand the material really good and helps student that is in need of more help. Dr. Phillip explains the material in details so that we know what we are learning in class.

Good Job, Professor!
THIS COURSE WAS INTERESTING AND WAS A COURSE WHERE YOU LOOK FORWARD TO ATTENDING IT. THE LEARNING WAS A FUN EXPERIENCE AND I HOPE TO HAVE HIM AS A PROFESSOR AGAIN.
I think that Prof. Phillip is a good professor, and I got to learn things clearly and in a interesting way. He is a funny professor too.
Professor Phillips is a great, kind and very helpful person. May the lord fulfill all his wishes.
I think prof Phil is the best in what he does.His clarity of teaching is exceptional you cannot ask for a better prof.
Dr. Phillip is witty while being insightful, and gives an all-a-round great introduction, to otherwise melancholy chemistry.
the professor teaches very clearly and makes sure that every one understands.
GREAT PROFESSOR! ALOT OF PATIENCE AND WAS VERY ACCESSIBLE TO ALL STUDENTS. HE MADE SURE EVERYONE FULLY UNDERSTOOD ALL FUNDAMENTALS.
He's a great professior. Wish there were more like him. He makes chemistry so understandable.
This Prof truly loves teaching as well as Chemistry...it shows. I wish all the Chemistry Professors would follow his example. He is thorough as well as patient. No excuses for failing his course.
All Chemistry professors should be like this. Exciting, motivating, patient, thorough...I could go on. If I had just one teacher like this in high school my life would certainly be different.
All Professors should be as exciting, interesting, patient and hard working as Professor Phillips...he actually had me interested in chemistry after so many years out of school.
A teache who loves what he does.

wonderful prof!!
Professor Phillip lectures with ease that the students can absorb the information provided. Gives examples when needed to understand what is being lectured.
Prof. Phillip was an awesome teacher. He was very funny and made the class interesting. I really enjoyed Earth Science.
The best professor you could possible want to teach you. He explain well so you can understand.
PRO. PHILLIP IS A REALLY REALLY GOOD PRO.I THINK HE GOES OUT OF HIS WAY TO HELP THE STUDENTS LIKE MYSELF UNDERSTAND. HE IS AMAZING I ADMIRE THOSE QUALITIES.
Very patient professor. Goes through extreme measures to instill the material for his students.
BEST PROFESSOR YOU CAN EVER HAD! HE HAS A AMAZING HEART. THANKS FOR ALL YOUR HELP! MAY GOD BLESS YOU ALWAYS!
Best professor I have had the pleasure of being taught by. Always "over" extending a helping hand even if its not subject related. Personable, generous and knows how to teach & wants you to succeed. Very Fair. Gets along with students.
Well, he has never been my professor. He is currently the chairperson of the chemistry department and he is always willing to help anyone with chemistry. He explains thoroughly and with great clarity. He often appears stressed but he has quite a work load so it's only natural. Even so, he still is always willing to help.
Best professor, really help students,explain really good,
After a longgggg hiatus from school, I dread doing the subject. Our regular lecturer could not make it and he showed up to lecture the class. Thought it kinda odd for a Dept Chair, but we were surprised how he broke down the concepts using everyday comparisons and offer addl resources outside of class. Super receptive personality!
He is supportive and encouraging, he helps students when they really need it. Moreover, he explains things to the best of student understanding. And I am happy to rate and recommend him as one of the good professors in the department of chemistry and chemical technology.
He is supportive and encouraging, he helps students when they really need it. Moreover, he explains things to the best of student understanding.
Dr. PHILIP was supportive and encouraging, he helps students when they really need it and explains things to the best of student understanding.
Extends a hand to the fullest whenever help is needed. One of the best professors that I've had. Thank you so much for teaching us to become chemists.
One of the best prof I've had in a while. Picked up my book maybe one or twice the whole semester, just because he explains everything in a way that almost impossible not to understand. Thanks Dr Phillip!!! Do your hwrk and you'll be fine!
THE BEST!! MAKES CHEMISTRY FUN!
Great professor and always willing to help his students. I will definitely take him again for CHM 18
This class was made the very simple as everybody in the classroom could understand that chemistry is not a subject that we have to get scared of.
I feel that Prof. Phillip probably is a better teacher for the regular term courses. I felt that he believed that the students should have had a level of understanding before entering the course and Prof. Phillip will leave out information. I can see his aggravation when we the students did not understand.
prof Philip was great!! he is very clear at explaining the course, I'm taking him again for chemistry 17 thats how good he is
Quiz and homework every class. If you do your part, you will get an A
He's a reasonable professor. He tries to make things as simple as possible.

Prof. Neil follows the syllabus, good lecturer, willing to provide tutorship, communicates with you if want answer to any questions you may have and will explain it again if you don't understand, as long as you do the homework and take the quizzes, you should be ok I would will take another class with him.
I was registered for another professor, which I will leave nameless. Dr. Neal was able to help me understand the CHM 17 with ease. He is very direct and encouraging. I did not get credit from his class. But his study group sessions helped me pass the final.
Knows what he is teaching. You will learn alot about the environment and how to play your part in protecting it.

He is just a great guy an amazing professor and I would absolutely recommend him to anyone taking BIO- .. and if you come to class, take notes and study chapter reviews you'll do well; as I did :)
If you're gonna take any science class in the upcoming semester, this guy is the one you should pick. He became very specific and clear on all lectures. He'll give quizzes every week or two on about 10-15, so be prepared. & he sometimes gives quizzes on blackboard. The best part about it is you'll have no homework, unless he gives out a essay.
I loved his class he's very smart and is great at explaining chemistry in a way you can easily relate he treats everyone with a great deal of respect I really recommend him
He is a very great professor he explains everything really well i would recommend anyone to take him do your homework and all your quiz and you will be in good shape for his class

Very approachable and very helpful.
great professor
He goes above and beyond for his students and department. He only wants you to learn from him and to enjoy learning chemistry.
Never had a professor who cares so much about making sure his students truly learn and comprehend the material. He explains it in accessible ways and has taught me the basis of chemistry that I think about every day. He teaches in a way so that you don't just memorize and test. Thank you for making me feel confident in a subject that scared me. :)
Professor Neal Phillip is a very good professor, he makes sure you understand the lecture and he also is very easy to get in touch with. He even offered to do Skype with us if we had any issues with HW and needed him to explain things on the board. I was very scared of Chemistry, but he really got me through it.
It's Amazing honor to have such a high standards professor in my class. he's such an inspiration. he's compassionate and passionate about teaching. love it. Always wiling to help and teach I a great humble and respectful manner.
he is amazing trust me take him
As long yo come to class, pay attention, read book,go for tutor, ask question and attend final review you will do excellent. If not you fail that you business.

I would recommend this professor to anyone, and have recommended him!! Hands down the best clear concise and understandable.
As a Graduate student, it was recommended that I take chemistry, which I never took before. The professor would always help me and was always available during office hours. His attentiveness and charisma actually resulted in my developing a genuine interest in chemistry, which resulted in my taking other chemistry courses. (professional)
Go to class, do homework, ask questions and seek his help if needed. YOu will definitely pass.
I must say he is very good at what he does although I wasn't doing good in the quizzes which are every class he is amazing fast but he is good here works with you
Very good professor
Exceptional,very sensible,competent, caring , demonstrates effectiveness, provides informative feedback .
Prof Neil Phillips is one of the best professors I have ever had. He is very supportive and caring, so is the chemistry department. You are given weekly quizzes which are fair. It is a challenging class and the material is heavy but once you go to class, study hard and put in the time you should be ok.

Prof Phillip is in a league of his own. He is highly respected in BCC which is very impressive. A quiz every week, don't miss a class or you will be lose. He is very fair & treats everyone equally. If you don't leave his class inspired then you took nothing from his class. He makes you feel like you can achieve anything you put your mind to... Nina
Dr. Phillip is an amazing professor. He lays out exactly what you need to do to ace the course. Quizzes are super important and you will need to do well in them in order to pass the final. He is so nice and genuine never feel afraid to come to him if you need assistance with class work. One of the best professors I have ever take .
I never thought I'd enjoy chemistry. Still don't but Dr. Phillip made it very tolerable. Honor Coram Gloria.
Good professor, very tough but you learn a lot.
availability outside of class.
Professor Dr. Neal Philip is a phenomenal professor. He is very tough but do not be afraid, he is one the best professors that teaches CHM 02. He pushes everyone to strive for the 100, gives amazing lectures, hands out notes, he's available after class, makes sure that everyone is on the same page, and he throws parties if your class is engaged.
This was really a tough professor at first but he has a good soul.

Within these 3 weeks he made us feel like family & Chemist. Highly recommend professor Neal .Great guy
Excelente professor.
Prof Neal is one of the most caring professors Ive ever had. He really cares about his students. He is very understanding and is very helpful. This is my first chemistry class and i found It to be hard. The way he explained the material made it easy to understand.
The best of the best.
Dr. Phillip is an excellent professor, who cares about his students, both in and out of the classroom. His lectures are easy to follow, homework is not too bad, and his stories on his travels and humanitarian work are inspirational. It was a great class and I would be happy to have him as my professor again!
Too many quizzes, expects you to just know.
He's really honest and straight to the point. Follow your syllabus and do what is asked, pass your quiz. You will do great !!! #greatprofessor
Awesome Professor. Will go to the extent to make sure you succeed in his class.
This Professor is really great. His lectures are very interesting and you always relate back to the information given while studying and during test so take notes and listen up. He wants you to understand the material and you really do once he explains it. A Quiz every Class, Study! Chemistry has become more apart of my everyday life. Thanks Prof.
Dr. Phillip is an amazing professor. He will go an extra mile to help a student understand everything. He is one of a kind. No comparison what so ever. Kind hearted and down to earth. I totally recommend everyone to take his class u wont regret it.
Professor Neal is great. He is very down to earth and wants everyone to understand what is being taught. Don't expect an easy A but it is obtainable if you put in the work. He cares about his students and wants everyone to succeed. You will get many quizzes and homework but it is good practice. And he goes over them the day they are due.
Makes sure everyone has an understanding of the material before moving on. Simplified concepts that other teachers complicated (at least for me). He seems to genuinely care to help all of his students succeed. We had h.w. every night and quizzes every day, but this was for the summer session. Great teacher.
Hes nice but doesnt not like cheating
The best professor in Bronx Community College

They are kind and very helpful! Neal Phillip is one of them! He is funny too,not boring like some of my professors that I had before!
Professor Phillip has very good teaching techniques which make chemistry easy to learn. However, he can be a little impatient at times trying to explain a concept, and tends to get annoyed when he gets pressured. He does however try his very best to ensure your success. He cares about his students and that is very important. passing is a must.
Neal Philip is the best.. He treats his class like his family. Makes sure we are all on the same page by totally understanding what he is teaching. This was my best class ever.

The best professor at BCC.
He is truly one of the BEST professors on campus. He is understanding, passionate, and so humble. As long as you show up, do your homework, and pass the quizzes you will get a good grade. If your out let him know in advance and he will make sure you wont fall behind.
He makes his lectures very easy to understand with lots of examples and formulated explanations. Respect students from all angles.

Professor Neal Phillips is one of the best professors I ever had. He's very nice, he make sure you understand what he is teaching, and he does practice quizzes before your exam. He's one of those professors you have that help you understand what he is teaching.
The dedication he puts into meeting his student to ensure they are successful is amazing, the entire Chemistry department treats everyone with the type of hospitality that makes you want to change your major. I would 100% recommend future student to take Dr. Neal after all he is the Chair person.
Taking chemistry with Professor Neal Phillips was amazing. I learned a lot, he takes his time to explain the concepts. Hes always available if you ever need extra help, you will without a doubt love chemistry after!! He is a blessing!!
Professor Phillips although his quizzes are tough they challenge you to become a better student with better study habits. Mr. Phillips helped me a whole lot and most of all help me become a better student. Even as a older student that I was, he helped revolutionized my thinking, I thought he could never be done.
Hes the best professor ever. Hell make you study by giving you quizzes and assignments. Hell stress you out but its worth it. Ive never met any professor as caring and very professional. Keep up the good work Prof.
Professor Philip is a great. He is patient, friendly and gives good explanations to questions. He makes himself available to students and goes above and beyond to make sure you are comfortable with the material.
Great professor, will recommend any day. Professor Neal teaches using very basic methods. This makes it easy for students to grasp the subject.
Great Professor. Actually cares about his students, which is rare. He makes sure students understand the material. Taken chem classes with other professors and learned enough to pass the tests/class. In this class i felt like learned something, and i remember what i learned! Keep up with the textbook readings and homework or you will fall behind.
Hes one of the best professor Ive taken at BCC. Always ready to answer any questions, available outside of the campus hours, and a very kind person. I would definitely take his class again.

The best professor for chemistrys
Professor Neal is a devoted teacher. He made learning fun.
Been at BCC for 2 years and hes one of the best!
Professor Phillip was an amazing instructor, gave proper guidance to certain materials he gave us. Very understanding and is clear and concise on what needs to be submitted.
Hes an amazing professor, he is caring and understanding. He makes chemistry fun and gives real life examples, so his students would have further understanding. Hes just amazing!
Took CHM 17 for Summer 2020 Semester. You always have to constantly resend him your emails so that you can keep in contact with him. Always read ahead so that you can have an idea of the course as the textbook doesn't provide much help unless you are into the subject.
I took Dr. Phillip's class as a three week summer course. There was no class meeting time, so every day was focused on a new chapter with a daily quiz & discussion assignment (plus labs). It was overwhelming, but he made it enjoyable by relating the course to our own lives. He even made a class group chat, which was super helpful too!
The best professor for CHM... you wont regret it. Take him. Very clear, just practice and you will pass...
Amazing professor
Great professor, makes class fun but be ready to work and complete assignments. Prepares you with the adequate information for exams just make sure you show up for class. Definitely enjoyed taking this course.
Neal Professor is not just a professor, He is very human, always accessible to his students, give prep talks to motivates you and keep you grounded throughout the course. I couldnt have asked for a better Professor. Reliable, caring and always finding ways to make sure all his students win! Thank you Dr. Neal, you are the best!
The best professor ever. He is so amazing. He teaches in such a way that you will understand. Thanks so much professor. Much love

All professors should be like Dr. Phillip. He goes over the lecture clearly everyday. He sets time aside for any questions and goes over them in depth. He provides many types of extra credit.
He's a great professor!
This professor is the best professor . He love his job, and he make it his duty that you understand. He is encouraging, motivational, caring, humorous, he use real life situations to get across his lesson. He does not judge us or try to kill our dreams. I would say he genuinely love his students. I wish this prof would teach all the subject at bcc.
Prof. Neal's class is just--excellent. The class is very organized. He teaches you what you're going to be tested on (no tricks) he also very keen and knowledgeable of the class content. He truly cares for his student. He reviews quizzes and practice finals. He likes to see his student learn. (kind). Given my experience in this class was just great
Dr. Phillip was an amazing professor! He was engaging and super helpful if you needed clarity on a topic. The information can get heavy so be sure to study and take advantage of writing notes during his lectures.
Professor Phillips was the best professor I have ever taken in BCC. His lectures are cool because he uses real life situations/things to explain so you can better retain the information. He makes you feel very comfortable to come to him for anything and takes time outside of class to help you. You wont regret taking Chm 17 with him!
The best professor ever!!
Professor Phillip is a real gem. Especially during the pandemic he still made this class very fun. Make sure to do all your homework. It helps to study for the weekly quizzes. If you need help he was there via whatsapp and blackboard. There is no way to fail this class. There is nothing better than a Professor who is passionate about teaching.
Class was boring but what do you expect with a chemistry course. Guys I recommend that you look for a different professor.
Professor Neal Phillip is a great caring person who really want his student to succeed in college. Grateful I have taken his class I've learned soo much.
I enjoyed myself in this class. Before I entered this class, I thought it was going to be hard, long, and boring. It definitely wasnt that. I was able to stay awake, and engage in the classroom. I wish I had him for another one of my courses. We need more professors like him.

I took Professor Phillip summer 2021 for CHEM 17 and I must say he is a great, great Professor. Ive never been good in chemistry but with the way he explains everything is hard for you not to learn. You do have to pay attention and take notes but besides that the whole class is smooth. He also provides you with the book pdf which is very helpful.

This class was really good! A lot of info, a lot of homework. But if you do the homework youll definitely pass the exams. Pay attention to reviews and his stories, theyll help in the exams.

One of the best professor I ever meet. humble, respectful and very professional; always ready to help his students.
He has a full control of the chemistry materials and topics he taught to students.

The must amazing professor at BCC.
Professor goes over all the homeworks and practice quizzes in details. Lectures are captivating. He intensively uses Blackboard, all the materials are very well structured.
He is the best professor in teaching with knowledge. He is not only a professor, but also is a good friend that understand us and inspire d students for reaching their goals. God blessing him. I never forget him .
He is the professor that I had. His knowledge and training are a lot He is very respectful and friend with students. He also expected from you to try and study. If you work and study step by step in his class, it is easy for you. I just study after 20 years chemistry in his class and I learned well from Dr. Neal. He is the beast.
just ok. hes not very good explaining chem, expects u to have knowledge that u would only have as a PhD. kinda unprofessional, answers phone during class, goes on his phone during quizzes. makes a lot of mistakes, expects you to know stuff that was never discussed in class or is in the textbook. good grader tho, drops 3 quizzes at end of semester
His very good, cares for his students and goes extra mile to see you pass. Review for every quiz. Take him you will never regret.
The very best!!! Love his teaching skills. Very easy to understand. He makes chemistry look easy. I would definitely take him again. Those Saturdays were worth it. Thank you Professor for an amazing semester. IDA
Prof. Phillips is an inspirational teacher who genuinely cares about his students. Though the class can be challenging, his guidance and resources like unstuckstudy ai make it manageable. Attend lectures, use the free textbook, and you'll learn a lot.
Good professor! He encourages and wants you to do well and is very approachable. Practice quizzes were the same as real quizzes, only a little different.(Prepared us well).He simplified his lectures to clarify things and even gave his cell number to call if you had difficulty with the class. Because of his support, I feel confident with chemistry.
