Comment:

He's very knowledgeable and is very excited about what he's teaching, but he talks relatively fast and quietly which makes it extremely difficult to learn because he teaches mainly through his lectures and talking (the posted slides are mostly graphs and figures)

Comment:

His slides are mostly graphs and diagrams to be sure to attend lectures and take quality notes. Also read the "textbook" he provides. They really help to clarify his slides. His lab is great and interesting. He also has a great sense of humour. Exams are ALL written (no MC), and as such grades take a looong time to get back to you.

The material is a bit tough, but super interesting once you get into it! It's essential to go to lecture as this is where all of the explaining is done! Tim makes lectures fun and interesting with his genuine passion for the subject, not to mention is always there if you need help. Study well, think critically, and don't forget to read the papers!

Tim makes the material interesting. It is tough material but he does review at the beginning of every class about the material covered in the previous class. Very helpful when you have a question. His tests are fair if you understand the material. Good class to take if you're interested in learning about muscle adaptation in a bit more depth.

Awesome! The material is challenging but Tim explains everything thoroughly and clearly so it's not a problem if you go to class. His interest in the material makes it even more interesting as a student and the smaller class size is great for participation. I definitely recommend taking this, and any other classes taught by Tim.

Ignore those bad posts. Tim is such a nice and approachable guy, if u have ever tried, then u would know. The class in not easy-but what do you expect, you are at university! He will do his very best to help you whenver he can. puts a lot of effort into getting feedback from students and using it to improve lecture. don't skip class, and read!

Not necessarily hard, but A LOT of content! Study and do not underestimate labs. You get out of it what you put in. Tim was interested in the material and always up for questions as long as you knew your background info. Mid-class video's were an excellent brain break.

the course was pretty tough, but he tried to keep class interesting. the labs were a lot of information to learn on your own, and the exams were pretty tough, alot harder than expected

Don't like that we have to learn all the lab stuff on our own. Too much content for 3 credits!

Comment:

A very fair prof. He tells you exactly what material will and wont be on exams, so you have only yourself to blame if you dont know it. He makes everything very clear and, despite what others say, is always available if you are willing to set up an appointment. I dont know why people complain about him, hes probably the most fair prof youll get

very, very slow marker. i'm still not sure if i passed this course or not; it has been 2.5 weeks since the final exam and still nothing. a lot of material, but not a very good lecturer. doesn't appear accessible, monjeff and greg are good TAs though. study & never fall behind or you'll regret it.
