Jeff is able to establish an atmosphere that is particularly suited to learning.  He breaks down the barriers between student and instructor.  He seamlessly integrates lecture, laboratory, and online learning.  His classes are always the first to close and I routinely have students asking to be signed in.  They often insist that Prof. Rappaport is the only person they can learn science from.

I had the pleasure of learning from Professor Rappaport during my undergraduate studies at Manhattan College. I was immediately drawn to his energy, enthusiasm, and passion for teaching. While I was never a stand-out science student, Professor Rappaport provided me with the support I needed to boost my confidence in the subject and my overall grade in each of my three courses. He always found a way to make the content fun and engaging for students and was intentional in incorporating real world events into our lectures. I would highly recommend his services to any student.”
