If you take classes with Denny be prepared to do some solid work. He works you just hard enough to make you solidify the concepts, but not hard enough to overburden you. If you take Lab courses with him be prepared to spend at least a few hours a week in the lab. By the end of your time in his classes he will be helping you find a job so be ready!

Comment:
People are under the impression that signing up for college means they've earned their degree. Too much work? Perhaps, when you get a job in the real world you could discuss "too much work" with your boss. Then leave a review on the bus. page. I missed the college is for things outside of college memo. Denny is helpful and wants you too succeed.

He really wants you to succeed and gives you every oppertunity. He makes you work for your grade but in the end you come out prepared for the real world. He has a high percentage of job placement from his program.

He makes the class challenging and tries for each of his students to want and need to understand the material. Not an easy class, but well worth it. Excellent teacher!

Don't take these classes unless you want to work. This isn't a program where you get to sit with your headphones on surfing the Internet and playing games.I learned lots but I had to spend hours and hours in the lab working with the equipment. I would recommend this teacher and program if you want to get hired in IT networking.

Comment:
Loves his politics and treats his students like idiots if they disagree with him. He thinks his opinion is the only one that matters. Wants his students to live in classroom and try to fix his mistakes. Yes he makes them and then blames the students for doing something that they didn't realize they did. Never blames equipment always students

This guy is worthless. totally out of touch with reality. If you disagree with him, he retaliates. Too bad a teacher like this is allowed to teach.

Comment:
As a Teacher, he must realize that his students DO HAVE A LIFE besides school. If his course demands that much lab time then maybe he should have a three year course. The amount of work and lab is not only ridiculous but uncalled for. But this department doesn't care about anything except money. that is why many do not finish.

It was hard but he really knows what he is doing. People that rate him poorly are just slow students that wish it was a cake walk.

Comment:
Denny is a nice enough guy, and has a lot of knowledge and experience in networking, but he's not exactly teacher material. He makes sure that his favorites get informed about the best internships, but anyone else is pretty much on their own. I definitely recommend finding a different school if you want an associates in networking...

If you enjoy disorganized, degrading and condescending as a teaching style he's your man. He doesn't know his material and flys by the seat of his pants. Unfortunately most students don't know the material and won't realize until after they hit the work world how useless their toolset is.

He is the worst instructor I have ever had for anything in my entire life. If want to be successful in networking you should not take classes with this man. his grading scale comes straight from his backside. The last three days of classes are valued at 70% of your overall grade not the hundreds of hours you spend on homework and saturday postings.

Hard, and in most classes students need more help and he just doesn't have time to help them all in most classes. Nice guy, knows his stuff, but needs a lesson in teaching.
