Comment:

Absolutaly worthless as a teacher i learned nothing, there was no instruction on how to do either the tests or the paper. my grade was a fluke text was worhtless except for occasional use on the tests. If you ca help it avoid this prof at all costs constantly looses his place and makes no sense when he speaks he has no capacity for logic.

Comment:

Did not like this class or this prof at all. It was a waste of time to attend as classes consisted of pointless discussions with no academic content at all. Prof demonstrated minimal knowledge of the subject field. It was pretty easy and he is a nice man, but such a waste of time that it was almost not worth it. Do not recommend him.

He is an awesome prof that was always very helpful. He did not always make sense, and was confusing at times. He is very approchable, and willing to help. Assignments are very easy if you do them.

Comment:

This Prof with the nicest guy ever! He actually cared about the students, and learned the students names. If you went to every class, everything he taught made sense, but if you don't, you'll get lost. SPSS is tough, but if you get help from him, it makes sence. He had well laid out slide show presentations for each class + answers emails fast.

Comment:

For the complainers about work level and preparedness, may I suggest you actually come to class and/or download the presentations. All the information was provided multiple times PLUS a month long computer session for assistance (the project only took 6 hours for us who paid attention). One of the best profs to stimulate your mind.

Comment:

i definitely don't recommend this guy. He doesn't prepare you well enough for the lab session, doesn't answer questions in class clearly enough. I mean don't get me wrong he seems like a sweet guy, but man, he can't hear very well. Also he saves most of the assignments and projects to the last month of class.

Comment:

Very Nice person, he is willing to allow you to re-do assignments ao your grade is reflected in the work that you are willing to put into the class. However, SPSS is not the only thing that needs to be learned. Unless you already have Stats 100, and 200 you will be missing out on important info.

Comment:

You know, if people would actually come to class to learn. I think they would appreciate Dr. Taylor more. He's smart and will help if you are just respectful and I've seen a lot of blatant disrespect. It's pathetic. Yes he's older, but what the hell difference does that make. Talk about concerns!

Comment:

Class is a joy to look foward to first thing in the morning due to the uneducated responses of classmates. The class actually kinda of fun and the teacher while old is a caring individual who remembers students names and past comments and is not another teacher who could care less about you.

this dude needs to retire. classes seem like they're never going to end. Don't get me wrong, he's a really nice guy, but he's no where near interesting, but you need to come to class to pass.

Comment:

Even though he is getting old, he is a great prof! VERY nice man who cares about his students. Very helpful if you go see him. Very FAIR. Easy to get an A or A+ as he lets you redo assignments until you get the grade you want - great for learning!

He is a very nice man, and class work is easy. The only down fall is that his teaching style is very dry.

Dr. Taylor is one heck of a person. He cares about his students. Sometimes things are not that clear, however, the people that complain about that should try what I did. JUST GO SEE HIM ! It works! I recommend this class.

Comment:

I didn't pay $300 to have my course taught by students. Eliminate the class discussions every class, and LECTURE! Do your job man, please. He should also work on his instructions, since no one seems to understand what it is he wants.
