Default PCC instructors - Need feedback please!

Hi Guys,

Don't know what it is but my cousin has had no luck getting good professors at PCC.

Is there a website that reviews PCC professors or is he $hit outta luck?

Please let me know if you can recommend some professors in Math/Physics/Chemistry and ESL....it would be MUCHO appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

John

Yup tried that - I guess they don't allow comments so it's hard to know what to watch out for in a professor =)

best bet is... if he knows people who took those classes he needs prior to him
then he should ask them around.... thats what i did when i took science classes for Nursing program.... same class can be extremely hard or easy depends on the professor...

I love it when people say "the professor sucks". When very often that means the class is hard and the professor wants to make sure you learn the material. If a teacher is easy then you probably aren't learning the material.

Just ask the I.E. hard does not equal bad.



(Not saying this applies to your cousin as you didn't go into any specifics...)

I definitely agree,life is harsh,sometimes you get good professors and sometimes you don't.Its his responsibility to find a way to deal with it.

Otherwise everyone would pass the class.

I think its better for you to give us which esl level or math level because if you say esl, there are many esl level and so many teacher.
