Hello! Sir Bob is a BS Physics fresh grad from 2025. Might be a biased comment since he’s a close friend but I had him tutor me for science classes before and also bugged him to explain random science tiktok videos, and he never misses!
He explains science concepts in simple words, and is used to teaching/tutoring younger children so he has the patience to teach if you’re a little behind the lessons! Or generally if science jargons are a little foreign to you (as they are to me since I’m not a physics major), he takes the time to explain what they are.
As a scholar, he’s also very empathetic and kind. He has a great passion for teaching and I know (and believe) that he will take care of students.
The other comments are also true: he is a great friend. If you’re vibes with him, it’s not impossible to still be friends after the sem ends. Be kind to him and he will be kind to you!more

Hello! I am the original poster of this post. TLDR: He's the best prof I've had all sem.
Teaching: 8/10
Rapport w/students: 10/10
Approachability: 9/10
Easy A: With moderate effort
Workload: 5/10
I was scared because he had 0 reviews since he's a novice. However, during the first meeting pa lang, he already showed how skilled and natural he is in teaching. All these comments before me are also accurate in saying he's kind. You can truly see the heart and patience he has for teaching, and he's awkwardly funny too lol.
In terms of lessons, it's very standard but still clear. You are very much free and welcome to ask questions—he doesn't dumb-shame. The only times when it was hard for me to keep up was when he would get confused mid-discussion. He often backtracks and corrects things he said, but these are not hard to follow after a meeting or two since you get used to it.
The workload for both lab and lec is light to moderate. There is an output every week, sometimes two especially during finals. While sir is very open to questions, he does expect you to read all manuals and instructions. Medyo naabuso yung kindness niya during the first few meetings cause our class would ask a lot of questions that can be answered by reading manuals and instructions closely. Close-reading and coming prepared is very important in his class, and he respects the students that do so.
A big con for sir is that he rarely returns work. He gives verbal feedback so you know how you're doing as a class and sometimes individually, but he doesn't give back your scores for lab or worksheets. He only gives feedback for important works such as your final paper and project, but other than that, expect almost 0 return of scores until the last few weeks.
Overall, I would highly recommend sir Rob (We didn't earn the name Bob unfortunately) to any freshman or non-SOSE student! He made it clear that he wanted to make science accessible, desirable, and non-pretentious for people outside of science, and that's exactly what he did with our class. Will forever cherish both our lab and lec, sir Rob is the perfect balance of serious and fun, and is my favorite prof this sem!
