Excellent Instructor, one of the best at BCIT. He really goes out of his way to avoid making you feel stupid when you ask questions. If you get him over Aman for Arch, you've lucked out. Great guy!!

Teaching XML? MATH, ARCH and what not. It's easy to pass, just very boring. Topics that otherwise would have been interesting.

Comment:

There are those who can teach, and there are those who cannot. Brian falls into his own category: those who have the qualifications on paper but have not clue of what is going on. Hint: 20 people show up to your lecture, I wonder why?

I can write a biography on his daughter and her calculator. He couldn't teach grade 2 math classes if he tried. Here is a famous quote:"It's easy to understand it if you actually understand it."

Tries to make our driest course bearable, with good effect. You need to have a quirky sense of humour yourself to understand his.
