Good Teacher Overall. Sometimes hard to hear and wakes you up when his microphone squeels. Just sit in the front row and you'll get at least a B.

Comment:

Yawn! This class is very boring unless you are really paying attention. Always goes over scheduled class time by 5 minutes. Needs a microphone to talk and it's hit or miss technology on some days (static!). Class is pretty easy if you pay attention at least half the time, study the powerpoints and you'll get most of the test. Avoid him if possible.

Comment:

Garrett is a good guy, easy to hear when his mic is on. 3 tests, optional final, a few take-home quizzes. Read the slides and pick out facts that you would put on a test, pay attention in class, do that and the tests are cake.

The way he wrote the book like we are some god damn engineers. The book is not helpful whern it comes to looking up info. The book does not have enough info, complicated, outdated.and wont help you PASS. Write it so we can understand it.

This guy would be a decent teacher if you could hear what he was saying. Mumbles a lot at cant speak very loud but if you hear what he's saying you will probably learn something.

Really nice guy. Sit in the front because he does talk on the low side, but you'll learn a lot. He's very caring and very helpful. Great guy!

You guys with the HEARING problems, why don't you just ASK the man to speak up, you morons! I considered his class a PRIVILEDGE. He taught me to be patient with all different personalities, what a NOVEL concept, Huhhh???

Almost impossible to hear at some points- hardest part of class was staying awake. Cannot comprehend or answer questions from students. Very knowledgeable, but it would be nice if he would relay knowledge to students.

Comment:

He is quiet, but I sat in the front so that made a difference. Real nice guy too. Hard class (read the book and other professors notes...I read vosbury's off G Drive) At the final he wore a tie that was made out tin or something...funny guy, just try to stay awake.

Yep, mumbles, but by the end of the class when he gets excited, you start to hear him. He's knowledgable though. I did alright in the class, but thats cause "I love the smell of jetfuel in the morning." : /

Boring teachers are to train you for boring captains. DON'T EXPECT ENTRETAINMENT in college! if you do the work you will get the A you deserve. You all quit whining about his mumbling too...ASK him to speak clearer!

some questions on tests are only out of the book which is the worst ever made to read. Very hard to concentrate in this guys class. His slides are are so bad it would be better to stare at the wall for an hour.

I think one of the best comments on this site is "your pillow is gonna need a pillow", well I could have used that one for this teacher. So hard to hear him I considered buying a hearing-aid; mumbles horribly, uses old, terrible looking slides.

If I had a penny for every time I fell asleep in his class, I wouldn't need to be an airline pilot.

Ok, so the man does mumble a bit. Just sit in the front, and you'll be fine. He explains the material very well, and if you pay attention in class, and do the homework, you'll do well on tests. He also provides a formula sheet for the tests!
