Comment:

He makes you work for what you get. There is no breezing through his classes and that's how it should be. Great guy, can be a tough marker and old fashioned in his ways but I was very sick for 2 weeks and he did his best to keep me up to date even from my hospital bed. Cambrian College is lucky to have Uncle Bob.

Bob is just about the best thing the CETY/NETN program has to offer. You may not always like him, or agree with his methods, but is without a doubt the most diligent teacher we have. He prepares his lectures, works hard, and is committed to preparing students for the production environment. Cambrian is lucky to have someone like Bob.

Comment:

A lot of people called him Slideshow Bob, but how else would you get across the amount of information he had to without slideshows? He was excellent to my friends and I, funny, dry humour, a bit condescending sometimes but really knew his stuff. No issues with him at all.

Pretty cool guy. Knows his stuff. Willing to pass on his knowledge. PowerPoints are too extensive, but I learn more form those and his lectures than by reading word for word out of a textbook every day.

3 years with Bob - awesome teacher, goes out of his way to make sure you understand. Very accommodating. He puts in as much effort as you do, do your work and he'll make sure you know the material through and through.

3 years with Bob! Excellent teacher. Maybe best teacher I've ever had. knows his stuff. you got questions, he's got answers. Outside of class, he's a little hard to get in touch with.

Bobs a cool guy, your right about the slideshows but if he did make his own tests on the slide show info it would be much better.

Comment:

Slideshow Bob. Goddamn he loves those things. A littel too eccentric with them. Easy to lose some REALLY important info on the slideshows, ESPECIALLY the 100+ slides per class slideshows. Too bad he doesn't make the tests, then the class would be better. But he's a decent teacher...

Bob is a good prff but like some people have said he does use to many slide shows. Plus he needs to watch his subject matter. He tends to trail off to his many trips and new purchases durring class time!
