Comment:

Simple paper topics and exam questions, frequently gives options on exams. However, because of the simplicity he expects A LOT. Papers need to follow what he expects exactly. The exams are only long answer questions which he grades very tough. Intimidating, but a very nice man.

Comment:

If you have to take this class, save yourself the trouble and pain and find a different prof! His teaching method sucks, did not leave feeling like you understood the material, extremely hard marker. and was one of those profs who blamed the students for doing so poorly on exams when over half the class failed.

Comment:

Awful. You will leave every lecture thinking, "what did I just learn?" No review for midterm or final, which is over half of your grade. His marking is inconsistent and quite ridiculous. Save yourself the trouble and find another professor that can incite interest in their subject.

Comment:

Clearly shows favourtism. Extremely hard marker. It's like he looks at you and decides what mark you are, rather than giving you the mark you deserve. Very knowledgable, sometimes seems to talk down to some people.
