[150-165; 189-194; 187-204] My Physics 2 class was all conceptual and was in a giant lecture hall with an older professor. He was very good and knowledgeable in physics. But he didn’t understand his students. His examples were too smart. His analogies didn’t make anything simpler. He tried to do was have us visualize these in certain ways, and I felt like that just complicated things. However, I appreciated him because he actually had class participation. He gave us a chance to ask our own questions. He gave us opportunities to work in groups. The reason why I failed it was mostly because of me. He gave me multiple second chances to bring my grade up. And it came down to my lack of energy.
