Acting highly professional, knows his topic. A hard marker. Never miss his lectures if you want to pass his classes, otherwise you will fail. Also do all his labs/assignments as they are made on top of each other, and missing one will make your life harder.

Comment:
Incredibly nice guy, extremely helpful and his lectures are great. He works with the students to give one of the best learning experiences. His course material is excellent, and gives some great tips and tricks. He is kind of a strict marker, but you should worry about that too much, because he rewards hard work.

Comment:
A knowledgeable prof. He is very sharp and teaches in the style of university rather than college. Prepare your self for spending a lot of time after class on readings and assignments. If this course were to split into 2 courses, the workload would be more reasonable and bearable. Fine prof. but hard course. Tip: follow the instructions carefully.

Comment:
Peter seems to be very passionate about the courses that he teaches but the classes are not structured. I found that often the labs included items that were not covered in class. Expectations were unreasonable and it is very difficult to do the labs after what you are shown in lectures. My suggestion to anyone taking this class. Bring a laptop!

Comment:
At first you might be fooled but he is terrible. Unreasonable expectations, very bad time management and content organization. Although I learned a lot, it was out of sheer panic of failing this class. Harsh marker and not available for help most of the time. Might be better when he's not the program coordinator anymore. He does know his stuff.

Took his class for NET programming. He teaches OK in class, but there is no way for you to get any extra help from him at all. All questions are answered vaguely, which is of no use in a programming class. He seemed to be preoccupied with other stuff.

Comment:
Marked one of my lab as incomplete. When I asked he never explained clearly why. Then I got almost failed on the first test. Again, I never got clear answer why. For some reason he kept ignoring me when I tried to ask a question. Overall, he has knowledge and his teaching style is OK. But I never got what I had to do to get a better mark.

Comment:
I got a B+ in this class. Peter was a little slow while he was teaching this course. He also didn't teach a lot of material as compared to his other courses. This course was quite easy as there was little material covered. He tends to repeat things a lot of times, but he really knows his material in C#. He is an excellent professor.

This is for BTI420, Peter is an excellent professor. He knows his ASP.NET and C# stuff. This course taught me so much and his teaching style is great. He uses online notes, so we didn't even need to buy the book. He has tons of coding examples for all of his classes. He's a little fast paced, but he shows real life examples. He's very helpful too.

Comment:
PROS: does not skip classes, uses class time efficiently, posts readings online in timely manner, interacts with the class. CONS: does not post lab, project, test marks on time, never explains why he gives low mark, his marking & evaluation is too subjective, not willing to help students.

Comment:
Perhaps he knows the subject (if you repeat teaching the same stuff for decades YOU ARE EXPECTED to know your subject). He lacks an ability to jude students' work fairly. He is kind of confused what to be taught and what to be asked. When you ask for help, he politely avoids giving you what you need. Do not take any of his courses of possible.

Comment:
Knows A LOT about what he's teaching. If you ask a question, you'll get your answer, and then-some. Doesn't dumb things down enough to help you understand, and expects you to know as much as he does; in otherwords, likely to fail. 30 people in my class, approximately 18 failed.

All I can say is he's a great teacher. Not easy but not hard. But a great overall teacher. Whenever you need help, he'll be there! And definitely a really nice guy!
