Comment:

He is a good Professor. Really helpful and easy. Except his little english problem, he is an absolute genius. He knows his stuff. Attendance is required. Gives homework as extra credit. Will help you in programs and gives extra time to submit without any problem. Recommended to take for any computer course.

Very smart, very helpful prof. Go to his office where he will help and advise you. If you show an interest he will reward that!! As others have noticed, there is an issue with understanding his accent, but if you are paying attention it's not bad. Overall a great prof.

Comment:

The worst teacher I've had here at NYIT. His English is atrocious and he can't even read from the PowerPoint slides he uses. I heard him tell the students that Indian people don't use toilet paper. Not kidding. He assigned 2 25-page papers that he told us to plagiarize from Google. We only had to write an intro and conclusion.

Comment:

Amazong prof except for the language issue. Super helpful and really knows his stuff. I learned more Comp Sci from him than I ever expected. Really goes above and beyond for his students. That said, he does have difficulty with English, so if you have trouble understanding Asian accents, beware. Great, helpful, interesting, educational professor.

Comment:

An absolute abomination of a teacher; as a person though he's pretty nice. Has no clue what he's talking about half the time. You have no clue what he's talking about all the time. His tests are simple if you memorize the questions he tells you to. he cant speak and encourages plagiarism. He was giving a presentation on Fedora and wrote "Read Had"

Comment:

I don't know how the school stays accredited with such a moron as a chairperson. This guy knows nothing. All he does is plagiarize stuff and put his name on it. Google some of his handouts, they're all online! He encourages people to plagiarize. His class is such a joke. Easy A learn nothing. Can't speak English or his own language..

Comment:

Very hard to understand what he is saying at times, because of his thick accent. St-st-studders a lot. The exams are just as he says in the review, if u read those you will do good on the exams. The programming is abit hard though.

Comment:

Nice person, however, the worst teacher. He studders, can't speak english and has a very heavy accent. Unprepared for classes, one class, he tried to download a program for 2 hours unsuccessfully, then gave a 2 hour lecture in 15 minutes. Son't take his class, you will not learn anything.

Cannot speak english but after a while his lack of it is amusing. Say's wha when he is asking his fity rhetorical questions per class. Tests are memorization of block diagrams and are of no use to anyone.

Comment:

Teacher was very hard to understand. His projects were fairly hard, but his grading was extremely easy, and allowed for much grading curves. Honestly, i didnt learn anything in the class, but managed to pass it. so i guess he's every bad students dream.

Terrible teacher. Assigned a lot of work then did not bother to collect or check it. Tests required you to memorize blocks of code right out of the book. Poor communication skills. Thick accent AND he stutters.

Very poor teacher, has extreme difficulty communicating in English, gives useless assignments and is not very helpful. His classes are a waste of your time and he gives poor grades.
