He teaches the 3rd module of 101A. He gives a lot of material but his exams is quite straight forward if you know everything. His lectures are a bit boring though and hard to keep listening for two hours. He follows the book quite well however. So that's good.

This guy was awful. He talked in a low monotone throughout the entire lecture, and I realized going to class was not time well spent. He provides you with a reader, and also relies heavily on the book, so I would personally recommend using your class time for THAT instead of wasting 2 hours trying not to doze off.

Dr. Piri taught the third of three modules in our Neuroscience M101A Fall 2008 class. Not many people show up at lecture, and many of those who do often fall asleep. Including me. BUT I have to say that among the three modules, I loved his the best. He is very fair and clear-cut as to his requirements: he wants you to read the textbook. Everything is in the textbook. You will surely do very well if that's how you study.
