Comment:

He is the worse teacher that I have so far. He does not care about the class and he has an anger issue. One minute he'll laugh and the next minute he'll shout at the class. Don't take his class.

How about showing up for class when the students are required to. Can't bother to email us when he's sick. This has happened 2 times. 2 too many in my book.

Comment:

Mr. Durkee is confused! He does not seem interested in teaching his class, only in showing slide shows so that he can grade his homework. He does not teach nor does he care if his class understands the subject. His syllabus is confusing and he is not able to explain things when he does bother to try. WASTE OF TIME!

HE MOVES EXTREMELY FAST THROUGH THE MATERIAL SO MAKE SURE YOU HAVE A BASIC UNDERSTANDING OF COMPUTERS. I WOULD NOT TAKE HIM IF THIS IS YOUR FIRST COMPUTER CLASS...YOU'LL BE LOST. IF YOU HAVE A GOOD UNDERSTANDING TAKE HIM HE'S EASY!

I hate him. He doesn't know how to teach. Its not worth the money to take this class cause he FAILS people easily for not understanding computer. You go through a powerpoint presentation yet you still dont learn nothing.

Comment:

Poor teaching skills. Unclear lectures. Unclear projects. Treats students like ignorant children. Lost my tests. Had to fight for my A, which is bullsh*t. Unnecessary stress for a complex subject. Apparent that he brings to work his personal problems.
