Good teacher if you like lectures, lectures during the whole class period and gives fairly hard tests, if you know the material, you'll be okay.

Comment:

he is by far the best teacher at Tech. He manages to keep history fun, though if you dont come to class your grade will show it, tests are from the lecture so pay attention. He will ensure that you stay awake and are attentive, just come to class
