Comment:

For the class, it's not easy to pass. However, he is not a passionate or helpful teacher even though you thought he would be. He would talked a lot to you but that's only thing he did.

Comment:

He was my academic advisor and he knew absolutely nothing about the coursework required to complete the BME. I think he's a decent man but a hopeless professor.

Frankly, I do not understand how, frankly, he got as far as he did within the SOM, or, frankly, his career considering his lack of experience.

Comment:

Very intelligent. Stays up to date with music ed issues, although his personal teaching style is quite dated. Lectures often turn into tangents on unrelated topics.

Comment:

Frankly, he's unclear about what kind of guidelines to use for essays- just write on a topic. This is bad since the course counts as a second writing class requirement.
