Comment:

Taught lectures using slides from another person, didn't seem to know what was coming next before the slide appeared. No consistency in testing criteria. Repeatedly said he didn't care if you hated him, most people did. Was very aggressive when asked questions about material, or clarification on mistakes made following exams.

Comment:

You can understand all the homework you want, once that midterm/final comes around you better know your Latin, nothing is clear. Tough grader, doesn't give a break even if you've failed his class before. Its a first year - 2nd term course ffs!

Comment:

Teach right out of the book. Lots of Math error in labs solutions and lectures. It's more effective for me to read from the book. His teaching method for the diploma program was great, just not great in terms of the degree program.

Johan's great. He's a hardass, but you gotta respect that. He's really good at teaching, knows his stuff, and knows how to communicate it. Funny guy, too.
