Professor Wolff is a nice guy. His tests can be a little difficult...mainly b/c he'll give you questions where you have to pick all the correct answers-not always just one correct answer. (and true/false are hard) Those are what killed me. I suck really bad at physics, so I am happy with a B. It is not required that you go to class, but you have to go to get the notes. You have to go to get the experiments that you have to write up also. I wouldn't recommend missing class.

Dr. Wolff. What can I say? He's the best professor at western. Best teacher, funniest, most interesting. Most enjoyable. The class was not that hard. We just had fun learning Physics. I reccommend taking this man for physics if you need science credit -or even if you don't.

Mr. Wolff is a super awesome dude, but the class isn't! He loves to talk about cars and engines, so if you like that stuff, this class is for you. However, for those of us that don't, don't bother with this course. Cars are allllllllll he talks about. Sometimes he rambles on and on and on about some off the wall stuff so you fall asleep and then miss what the important stuff is that will be on the tests. No textbook so no use in just reading that to make up for stuff you miss.

I would recommend this class to anyone. He makes his class fun. He gives an outline of what is on the test so if you study that you will pass. He is just an overall Great teacher!!

This class is harder than it's cracked up to be. There's no text book so you have to come to class to take notes on the subject. It would be easy except that he phrases quiz and test questions in a confusing way so you can't be confident about your answers. It's boring. Don't take this class if you will be operating machinery.

Dr. Wolff is a super cool guy, but he is extremely boring! He almost put me to asleep, and I didn't have him until 11. The class itself is easy, but his tests are hard. He asks stuff that he really didn't cover much, he may have only mentioned it once. However, it is an easy Gen. Ed. course!

He's a pretty funny guy. The material is easy to understand, but his tests can be pretty hard.

Dr Wolff is by far the best teacher I have EVER had. He makes physics fun (he cracks a lot of jokes and will note several time that he is not an artist, but it makes it that much more fun) and easy for people who have no background in physics. Little math is required, but there are experiments that must be done outside of class, but they are also easy. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!! =)
