In discussion, he splits us into groups and has us struggle with material we have not even been taught yet! He does not explain anything in multiple ways. Half the time, I am lost!",

His eagerness to constantly improve his teaching abilities really helps make him a great professor. He has really helped set me up for success.",

He gave extra help to students by being online with a chat session, and he taught pretty well.  Lots of slides, lots of notes.  Difficult course, but fun at the same time.",

Exams are ridiculously unfair no partial credit is given so you can show knowledge of a concept and still get zero points on the question. Unless you are a girl who likes to spend lots of time in office hours and sit in the front row do NOT take his class.",
