Comment:

Teaches concise concept for php. Pretty bad teacher in terms of willing to help students (its not his job - wont go out of his way to help). would like to see better and prepare lectures, teaches on the spot. assignments and tests are based on labs. test concepts are taught in class, listen carefully.

Comment:

Horrible teacher. If you get him try your best to change. He DEMANDS that you bring your external HDD to use on the school's computer to "Help you fix any problems because he only knows that setup" but then tells you to fix it yourself. His tests check to see how well you make a cheat sheet. MAKE CHEAT SHEETS ON ALL THE EXAMS EXAMPLES TO PASS >.>

Bent over backwards when people had questions and were struggling with their program. Managed to teach python scripting in a way that was easy to grasp. The content is tough to teach and people blame the Bob for that.

Comment:

Was in his Python class. I was told by other students that he is a terrible prof, but overall he wasn't too bad. He has strict guidelines for assignments and docks you points for not conforming. He's more than willing to help you if you ask, but most of the idiots in my class dont bother and then whine about their marks.

Comment:

I have once asked for assistance for one of his classes and he simply told right up my face, and I quote, "this is not part of my job and I will not help you, sorry". This was said even though he developed the entire class. This is not the first instance, his job as a coordinator was a disaster as he could not contend his anger to himself.

Not a bad teacher but not a very good one either. He seems friendly and willing to help while in class but would not hesitate to put you in your place. My mind is not made up about him yet...

Comment:

I thought he was pretty good, during class he seems a bit unhelpful, but via email or one on one he is very willing to help -within reason. Assignments are tricky, as he has VERY strict guidelines. His teaching method is a bit different than most Comp sci. profs, it's certainly effective and so far the best I've experienced at Seneca

Comment:

I Took physical security with this guy and he made the course up from the book, didnt know anything, ask obselete questions on the test that everyone failed, gave a bonus test to boost the marks from first test, people failed the bonus. everyone was borderline passing till the exam. He is the worst teacher at seneca no doubt about it. dont take him

Does not know correct syntax and usually has to check online during lectures.Poor helping skills. Many times he does not know how to address an issue and will leave you stranded.

Comment:

He tests students on material he hasn't covered. He didn't teach anything, he just gave us websites to learn from on our own. Forget about asking for help, he loves to say "NO, debug it yourself". He didn't teach us how to debug nor did he teach the language- he didn't teach anything! Very arrogant!!

Comment:

Work teacher I have ever met. All these comments posted here are really true. I should have never taken his course, and neither should anyone else. Tests Assignments and Exam are practically impossible. Bob will fail you for everything anyways. Expects to much out of the students. Probably passes girls and fails the guys. DON'T take this class!

Comment:

Robert needs a reality check. Maybe it is the wine he brags of or the fact that Jane Austen really ruined his life. He takes out his hatred on good students by giving them poor marks. Robert tries to prove he knows more than you whenever he can and is by far the worst teacher I have ever had. If only I had more than 350 characters to tell you more.

awful teacher, avoid him, he is the kind of person that will give you a 49% on your final exam so that you can't pass, more than half of the people dropped the class after mid-term that says something about his teaching abilities...

Nice guy in general, but not the best teacher for this subject. He doesnt really help out in class, but his quizzes and tests are easy enough for u to do them on you own.

Hi, I am in one of your summer, 2005 java class. I heard from lots of people saying that you are a hard marker. If read this site by any chance, can you be easy on us? Please!!!!!!

Hard marker (for a1 all but 2 or 3 people had to resubmit for the SAME bug that he neglected to inform us about). Knows his stuff. If you have any question about c/c++ he'll most likely be able to answer it. Hard tests.

Comment:

Man, this teacher I think wrote his own C++. Does not know a single line in coding and gives garbage out in the class. Takes always help from junior teachers for class notes. I bet $1000 if you ask him a question in the class and he can answer it.
