Tom was super helpful in clarifying concepts that did not make sense when I went through the online modules. His reviews before exams were extremely helpful, and his tests were hard, but fair.

A good teacher. Really fair questions on exams. I thought his lectures were very organized, clear, and at a good speed. Not the most interesting material but he did a really good job at teaching it.

Comment:

Tom works to continuously improve his teachings by asking the students for feedback, this makes his lectures clear and easy to understand, the most important component of any lecture. He uses large, colourful, well-labelled diagrams to illustrate concepts, and has provided notes for you so that you simply add your own to personalize them.
