He is a very good prof. He teaches well and expects you to demonstrate that you learned the concepts. Only high school kids have difficulty in being in his class!

One of the bad ECE profs at MUN. Attend classes to understand what you are responsible to learn, but be prepared to study the text on your own for learning the material.

Comment:

Terrible prof, doesnt teach anything relevant to the course but attendance is mandatory. He will remember exactly what classes you missed or were late to and call you out on it. Tests aren't bad, but he won't teach you anything that's on them. He'll just tell you to have passion a lot.

Comment:

Absolutely mind blowing how this man is a teacher, let alone an engineer. Classes are pointless, notes are nonexistent, and textbook does not contain material relevant towhat he wantsto test. Theonly study material for the course is in this mans head, and hedoesn't wish to share the course content with anyone. Electrical?Chooses to teach geography.

Comment:

He's a very nice guy... that's all I can say nice about him. His lectures are pointless to attend, he has no train of thought and you would learn more from the graffiti of circuit diagrams in the guys washroom then you would in attending his class.

Comment:

Classes are very pointless. you learn more by staring at wood, so off topic rants and raves about bs with no relevance. Thinks he is helping but is a terrible human being. Don't get on his bad side, go to class early and stay late to ask questions everyday, and commit to never have a doctors appointment or have any kind of sickness ever... If you f

Comment:

Worst prof in the world. Attendence is only mandatory because you fail if you don't go, this guy knows if you miss a class or show up late, he will pinpoint the exact time to the second, even if you think he does not know you. He will call you out months later. Holds grudges over nothing, and reflects that in the marks/ help he will give you. Class

Comment:

I Luv Dr. J!!! He cares about his students. He never crams in too much material. He always bings chocolate bars for the last class of the semester. He will always answer your questions outside of class, and wants to make sure you do good in your assignments and labs. Very predictable tests. Couldn't ask for a better prof!!!!

Comment:

His lectures aren't great but make sure you go anyways because he's got a fantastic memory and hates when people skip class. He really cares about the students who go to class and work hard but has no time whatsoever for slackers. If you deserve to do well in this course, you will.

Comment:

Plays favorites. I should have failed the second midterm but he passed me anyway. Sit near the front, answer his questions and go to all of the classes and you might be so lucky. His notes are horrible, the TA did a better job when he guest lectured. He tries to help but makes things more unclear. If you get a bad mark to begin with, you're stuck.

Comment:

He cares about students. But he surely can't teach, Not clear notes..He tries hard to cover up his shortages..respectful but can't cover the truth that he can't teach.He thnks you should know all you learned b4 and skips things a lot..once you do bad once,don't you ever think about a come-back.He remembers it. He is not a good prof. Should retire!

If he likes you, you'll do well. If he doesn't, you won't. It's that simple. He has a super good memory and knows if you missed even one class!! His notes are CRAP.

Go to every class and every lab, or he will do his damndest to fail you. His lectures are pretty poor (Took him 2 months before he showed us a numerical method) and he gives no examples. If you get on his good side, he WILL pass you. Take note.
