Tomasz Taylor professor reviews and ratings: 2.88/5 from 33 student reviews at Northeastern. TRACE + RateMyProfessor + Reddit.
didn't really teach optics in an optics class. Tests are very challenging and nothing like the homeworks -- lectures are very scattered, and he has bad handwriting. Clearly doesn't care about waves and optics; he's a hot-shot medium-prestigious particle physicist. Might be good at teaching Physics 1 and 2, but for the harder stuff, avoid.PHYS3603 2018-12-11 13:45:42 +0000 UTC
Good lectures, very helpfulPHYS1141 2015-03-23 00:19:43 +0000 UTC
Had him for physics 1 and 2, can't say enough bad things. He's obnoxious, incomprehinsible, and arrogant. Sure he knows Physics, but he can't teach to save his life. Doesn't care who shows up to class, he lectures to himself anyway. Stay far, far, far away my friends.PHYS1165 2012-05-03 00:47:28 +0000 UTC
Tough class, but a good professor. He is knowledgeable and good at explaining the subject. Tests are hard but very fair: no surprises. Available via email (even on weekends!) for help, as well as in office hours: one on one he is very friendly and helpful.QUANTUMMECH 2006-04-16 22:51:04 +0000 UTC
