I have never had a teacher as great as Prof. Marcus. He's the best!!!!

I just learned about this site and I got to say that Dr. Marcus was perhaps the best teacher I have had over the last two years of taking courses online. At first I was skeptical about taking a chemistry course online, but Dr. Marcus made the course both educational and exciting. He repeatedly offered numerous ways of teaching chemistry includin

Dr. Marcus is a great professor. Not only will he reach beyond his duties and help his students pass the class with an A, he actually makes chemistry an enjoyable subject. I highly recommend taking his class rather then the online course.

It was pretty nice taking the Chemistry course with Dr. Marcus. He is very helpful in every way. If any questions, just stay after lecture or lab he'll help you and make sure that you completely understand the material. Nicest teacher! Give A to the student who puts their bes effort in the class. Strongly recommended!!!!

I thought Professor Marcus was very nice. His tests were multiple choice and he curved grades. We had take-home quizzes. He also dropped the lowest quiz score and exam score.

I totally loved prof Marcus. I took chemistry 180 like 5 years ago and this class was much more understandable. If you go to lecture and study your notes, there is NO REASON not to get an A. He simplifies the concepts and makes it very easy to understand. TAKE HIM!

Prof. Marcus is the best chem teacher ever! He is extremely helpful, will do whatever he can to help you understand. His tests are fair and he is understanding. For those who fail, you did not put in the effort. The semester that i took him, no one in the class had a grade lower than a B...so you're pathetic if you can't pass with Dr. Marcus!

His test and quiz questions often come directly from the book and from the study questions he gives out at the beginning of the semester. There are lots of points available in the lab so even if you don't get A's on every test you can still get an A in the course if you do the assignments.

Very cool teacher. Willing to help out students if they don't understand something. Go to the Lab and you will do fine. Great teacher!

Great teacher, attend the labs and ask questions if you don't understand.He is more than willing to help you pass the class.

Dr. Marcus is a caring, sweet professor who wants his students to succeed. He will help you with any and all questions you have about the material. His tests are based off assigned chapters. He knows what he's talking about. You can't really ask for more than that in a professor.

I love this online Chem110 class. This subject is not easy by any means, but as long as you try, he will pass you with either a B or an A. Turn in all your labs and do all your quizzes. I got an A, but it's only because he curved it and gave me additional 30 points towards the final...have no idea where the points came from. LOVE IT!

Ted Marcus is a helpful Professor as long as you ask him for help.Majority of the class is self taught with the online lecture. Midterm and quizzes are easy and all online. Final is straightforward from his review. You just need to study that. He is very lenient with the points and gives a lot of extra points in the class.

LOVE Dr. Marcus!! He's so cool with the grading. Take him, you will pass as long as you don't quit and try. 85% and above is an A. 75%=B, 65% =C.

Great teacher! He is helpful and gives a lot of extra credit!

I couldn't have asked for a better Chemistry professor than Dr. Marcus! I was really worried about taking Chemistry over summer (especially being almost 8 months pregnant) but he made learning and class time so enjoyable. He is incredibly intelligent and is always willing to stay longer after class to help you with the material. Highly recommended!

i took the online class and the lab at the garden grove location. The teacher was very helpful. I got an A because I studied hard.

Dr. Marcus is the most amazing professor ever. Very intelligent. He is very helpful. He makes chemistry so easy to understand. I actually never had a professor so great at teaching. He is so easy to understand and very well organized. He expects students to work hardm which is great these days. Most teachers do not teach, Dr. Marcus goes beyond!

Dr. Marcus is a professor that truly goes beyond what is expected of him. He is not only organized, but he is sincere with what he explains. One of the best professors that I have ever had. I reccommend Dr. Marcus fully with no reservations. This class is difficult, but Dr. Marcus makes it simple. Truly blessed to have had him.

The class is hard because of the subject itself, not the teacher. He will help you when you need him. He made the class very simple. Great professor.

I took the class online and the lab at the Garden Grove Center. Dr. Marcus was so helpful & really made sure that you understood the material before moving on. I highly recommend taking the lab in class because he lectured also to help with the online portion of the class. Truly a nice guy and made Chemistry enjoyable! Thanks Dr Marcus!

You will love him! He's the best chemistry teacher I've had. His quizzes and exams are like the lectures and homework. Do your homework and go to his lectures then you will pass with an A...but you have to do the homework!

I took his class at the GG center spring 09. Chem is though but i think he did a fairly good job. I understand the people upset about him replying late or not at all, but it's chem you need to be there to get a grasp anyway. I managed to get a B after almost ten years since HS. It can be done just read the book and check out khan academy on youtube

I was very scared of taking Chemistry because I heard it was hard. And it was hard, but Dr. Marcus made it so easy to understand. He always helps students learn and spends time explaining difficult concepts. I got an 'A,' and it was only because Dr. Marcus made the subject so simple. Anyone would be more than lucky to have a prof. like him!

he is good chem professor

Dr. Marcus is the best Chemistry Professor I have ever had. The man is a genius! He explains concepts so simply and does everything he can to make it enjoyable. One could not ask for a better professor than Dr. Marcus. He truly made me love Chemistry. Not only that, but he made studying it enjoyable. I am so grateful. And I recommend him highly!

Love Professor Marcus! He is a wonderful teacher! Extremely helpful and wants the best for the students. He drops one lowest online quiz, one lowest lab quiz, one lowest exam, and one lowest lab report. Attend exam reviews and study his quizzes. They are 90% of your exam! Guaranteed A! P.S- He brought donuts before our exams! Haha

Great class, the Teacher was a little slow to getting back to you with issues but he was great on getting it issues resolved, I would recommend this class.

Super easy class. Put in no effort got a HIGH B. Like literally no effort. Cool guy too. Very fair and reasonable.

Dr. Marcus is Awesome only if you have him for an in-class lab, I signed up for indpndt lab at home but dropped on 1 st day because it seemed a bit overwhelming. I took him again this semester and he was a very pleasant instructor, material is not easy but very doable if you read the text and follow along in lab. overall, I recommend him!

Great teacher! Although the lectures were a bit boring, he covered what you needed to know for the quizzes and exams. Study everything he hands out! I did a lot of self-learning, but the material isn't too hard. Labs are quick and easy. He is there to help you and is very responsive but don't plan on depending on him too much.

Dr. Marcus is an amazing professor! Take him if you love chemistry! He drops the lowest test and quiz. Lab quizzes are straight out of the lab book. The final was straight-forward. And he brought us doughnuts in one class! Take him! Got an A with little effort (if you're not good at chem, you might need to work a little harder).

I hate Chemistry! Do all labs. If there is something you don't get just put a note beside it and he does not count off. I took it on-line and had no problems at all with him. Dr. Marcus is very laid back. He always got back to me. I did read the text book and it is a must to go to the review sessions before the exams. An absolute must.

Took the lab portion in class & the non-lab portion online. VERY EASY overall. Lab is 3hrs but usually took about an hour. 6 takehome tests/midterm are online & answers are in Google. 60 multiple choice final (44% of your grade) was hard but half are taken from the final review. Gave 30 E.C on test to boost grade. Also takes long to reply to emails

Hard to understand his accent. It's confusing when he teaches but stays after class to help. There are 12 labs and only about 2 are hard. You can Google all the answers except the final. Must be prompt in class because he stamps pre-labs at the beginning but grades easy. Dont recommend if you don't know Chem. Love his easy going class!

Marcus is a world-class chemist and a world-class educator. But you would never know it because he dumbs down the material to meet the needs of students who are not interested in Chemistry. This in turn is the consequence of an academic prerequisite system that asks students to study scientific modules they will never use in their careers.

Awesome guy. Several times he set up a whole mini-experiment just to answer a question I had! I went into his 180 without taking 130 first, and still got an A thanks to his helpfulness. He has an accent and his lectures can get confusing, so make sure to participate so you don't get lost. He LOVES Chemistry and will make you like it too.

He is helpful and if you attend class you will pass. Contact via Email or office hours, He is great at helping you understand the work. Chemistry can be outside the box for some people - he breaks it down in ways easily understood.

Ted is a good guy. I got 100% on the labs and he was really flexible when a glitch happened (not all professors are that cool) Just study real hard for the test. He gives extra credit though, so if you do all your labs you can still get an A.

If you prefer to learn by the textbook than be given lectures (though he doesn't give lectures), this won't be bad for you. I thought he would give the final online but no matter what it's always in person but it's not bad at all. Overall easy A if you need to take a science class. Half is inorg chem, other half org chem (with part microbiology).

VERY nice professor. Super easy and fair. Easy A if you study. Lab was done in class and lecture at home. To be honest i never opened the book. 4 quizes all done online. Midterm online, and final on campus. He offers a review for the midterm and final and pretty much gives you half the questions and answers.

One of the MOST EASIEST teacher ever! All the quiz are online and so is the midterm! Only downside is the final is in class. Do your prelab questions before class! Easy grader in the lab sections. Show up to his study sessions because he gives you the answers to half of the test! Don't need the book don't use the book. You'll get an A++++ I Did

Dr. Marcus's class is an easy class. Just make sure you review the materials for quizzes and midterms. Try to do well on all the midterms so you don't have to take the FINAL which I heard is very hard. He gives extra credit. Nice guy. He's not a good lecturer so if you have any question, find it elsewhere. Class is A-able. Take him.

Dr. Marcus is the best professor of Chemistry one could ever ask for! The way he teacher is so simple to understand. He makes everything so much easier to understand. At first I was very scared of Chemistry, but other students told me that Dr. Marcus would make it a wonderful experience! He always tests on the material he teaches! Best prof. ever!

Honestly, I have to admit that I was terrified of taking Chemistry until I was encouraged by students to take the class with Dr. Ted Marcus. I am so happy I listened to their advice. Dr. Marcus makes the concepts so simple and makes the lectures so easy to understand. An amazing class and an incredibly brilliant professor. Thank you!

Very nice prof. He cares but isn't very good at responding. Online during intercession is very doable. Labs/quizzes are easily graded. Midterm is online but final was proctored and hard unless you read the book. He gives you a review with 40% of the questions. Final is only for the 2nd half of the class so 8 chapters. Everyone should get an A/B

Dr. Marcus is one of the best professor I have ever had! He always starts the class with a joke and makes learning very fun! I was a little nervous about taking a chemistry class, but the other students told me that Dr. Marcus would make chemistry very simple. They were right! Not only did I get an A, but I learned so much.

I took Chem 110 Hybrid. All work, lectures, and tests are online (aside from the final). Dr Marcus is the kindest, quietest professor. He is very easy to talk to and tells corny chemistry jokes, but as a student you do have to kind of "teach yourself". I wouldn't take his course again, but he is such a nice man. If you're good at chem, take him.

Dr Marcus is very nice, quiet and extremely smart: he has a PhD in Organic Chem Rarely use ppt or the book during lectures, only to keep track. He can answer all your questions. Since it is a hybrid class, you do need to "teach yourself". Everything is online: hw, quiz, midterm: the final is proctored and is the hardest thing you'll ever take.

It's Chemistry... so clearly, it's going to be tough. There was a lot of homework, some of the labs were quite complicated, and the midterm/final was rough. I learned so much in this class but definitely had to work for it. Would take his class again for sure.

This professor is super helpful and you can tell he has a lot of knowledge and passion for chemistry. The online lab and lecture are pretty straight forward. Hes super nice too

Dr Marcus was a pleasure to have as a Professor. Chemistry is a new language to me. I truly was fearful to start this class. Dr Marcus was very supportive and helpful. He email response lag a bit, but he will respond. He will give exam reviews. He also give you 40% of the questions of the heavily weighted final exam. Lab attendance is a must

Chemistry is the hardest subject ever and Dr. Marcus makes it enjoyable and worth it! His lectures are amazing! And he will do more than is required of him! He always goes the extra mile to make sure you understand every difficult concept! His reviews are a must! He will get you through the course and you will do well because he will prepare you!

Took this online class during the winter session, it was the easiest class I've ever taken. All quizzes are online and also the midterm. The answer can be found online for both the midterm and quizzes. The final is easy if you study his review and read the chapters he assigned. He gives the answer to half of the questions in his review. Good Luck!!

You could tell he tried his best and I appreciated that. Some people arent tech savvy, especially older adults, and thats fine. Im sure if he didnt have to be online (COVID), he wouldnt be. Yes he could be confusing at times but its honestly not that difficult to figure out what hes looking for. If you put in the work, its easy to do well.

He was willing to work with students and do his part and more. You wont loose points for not attending his lectures but its the foundation if you want to pass quizzes, midterm and the final! No homework just focus in class ask questions and you will be set Professor really wants you to pass and will help you, but dont ask to round your grade.

Chemistry has always been a subject I hate must until I take this course, still in progress but loving it so far. Dr. Marcus makes it fun and enjoyable. Quizzes are easy if you enjoy his lecture, youll learn and be able to do it well.

Midterm exam (150 points) + Final Exam (300 points) + 10 quizzes & labs (15 points)+ challenge ques every week(5 points) = your grade. Prof Marcus was extremely considerate of what students were going through: COVID, babysitting, etc. It's not easy doing an accelerated chem course. I respect him for his efforts. He wants everyone to succeed.

Dr Marcus is a great professor. He gives you all the tools and resources to do well in class. You have to be willing to put in the work outside of class. I dreaded taking this class for so long but glad I got to take this Chem course with him.

Professor Marcus is a great professor! I highly recommend him. His grading is very easy and I enjoyed his labs. I got an A+ in his Chem 180 lecture course and an A in his lab, even though Chemistry is difficult for me!

Chem 180 with Prof Marcus can be tough, but his engaging lectures and unstuck ai study tools make it manageable. Attend class, use the textbook, and you'll do well.
