Comment:
He hit his prime 20 years ago. He talks to himself a lot, and laughs at his own jokes. You'll frequently find him stop talking mid-sentence because he forgot what he was going to say. His directions are unclear in class, and he is "not afraid to fail the whole class". If the whole class is doing poorly, then it's obviously the teachers fault.

Comment:
his version of teaching our class was to tell us how we were all bad students, sorry, "professionals in training" and needed to know the material without him to "hold [our] hands"

Comment:
Not a good teacher if you need someone who is great at explianing himself. He doesn't do a good job of TEACHING even though that's what he there for. He knows his stuff but doesn't know how to convey his knowledge.

Comment:
He is a good guy but not cut out to teach others. He knows his stuff but can't teach to under his level unless you ask A LOT of questions. If you go to his office hours and ask him questions about what you need help with he will eventually get to a point where you can understand. It is hard to understand material from his lectures.

Great teacher. Had him for Electronics 1. (0609-360) Encourages students comments and questions and does a great job of answering questions. Only good teacher I have had throughout the Electronics series.
