Comment:

I can see why people did not want Ken at Emily Carr. Sadly enough he is teaching GDMA @ Kwantlen. His teaching over at Kwantlen are useless there as well. His feedback is far from being insightful. I did well on his class but he was truly not worth my money. I did not gain any useful knowledge from him at all! Retirement would be an option for him.

Competent in his teaching, but cold and sadistic if you get on his bad side (and it's not hard to do).

This instructor is helpful, knowlegeable and resourceful. I feel his grading can be tough. I have learned a lot from him. He keeps the class organized with their assignments/schedule.

Knowledgeable, though not well suited to teaching. Feedback almost never gives insight in where to go next, what to consider in more depth.

Comment:

The man needs to retire or get out of teaching. His knowledge of design and his expertise are unquestionable, his skills as an instructor leave much room for improvement. His grading contradicts his oral feedback, his critiques condescending.
