Had him for a tutorial prof. Was pretty great, but he isn't a tech-savvy guy so you'll be lost in his tutorials if you don't physically have the tutorial sheet with you. All in all, great guy :)

Very easy for tutorials. Your grade only comes from your attendance. Only problem is that he makes a lot of careless mistakes on the board and will often need a student to point it out.

Ken is a good tutorial prof for this course. The questions you have to do for the tutorial are old exam questions that students had found difficult and Ken is really great at explaining how to solve them. He's always open to different suggestions on how to answer a question. Hes really passionate about chemistry overall so he cares for your success

Easy grader. Tutorials are mandatory because its worth 10% of your overall grade but no homework's were given. Answers your question straight forward and will elaborate when needed. He is a very nice professor and anyone is his class is lucky to be a part of it.

Ken's an easy marker, after all it's a tutorial. Just do well on the pre tutorial, post and show up to the tutorials and you'll get 100%.

Kenneth is hilarious he makes tutorials enjoyable and is understanding when it comes to life outside of school. After every class he says "have a good weekend, don't do any chemistry". Would highly recommend for a tutorial, he makes them amusing.

Ken was my tutorial teacher for Chem-1201, I learned more from him than in lecture. He goes over the concepts, and worksheet with you in class. It makes for a good study aid for the future. Attend all classes for easy marks. Tutorial quizzes are hard but fair chance is given. Prepare yourself for projectors. A bit messy on board so pay attention.

Ken was the best prof I had this semester. He is funny and listens to you. His teaching style was what you'd be faced with in the workforce so very helpful, not just making you memorize pointless stuff

Comment:

Ken is such a genuine professor, he really just wants to look out for his students. He gives grades based upon completion so you either get 100% on EVERYTHING or 0%. Although his lecture notes are extremely dry, he is a very knowledgable guy. Overall his funny British humour makes the class tolerable.

Comment:

Ken is a little scattered at times, but he is very straightforward with what he wants you to know for tests. It's really easy to write lab reports, as all the datacalculations are done in class, and the reports are pass fail! He also doesn't require any expensive textbooks!! He is a cute little British man and he is very kind. I enjoy his class.

Comment:

It used to be that when you pay your hard earned money, you expect to learn something worthwhile relating to what you want to do with your life. Not with this guy's class. His lecture notes are a DYSTOPIA and you can feel the indiscipline in his structure of teaching. Exams are calculator races, and he goes on monotonous Autopilot when lecturing.

Not the best teacher in lectures but a great teacher when you ask him questins after class. Very understanding. He actually wants you to pass the course. Ken even let us rewrite an exam because the average was low. He is also a pretty funny guy.

Comment:

The worst teacher ever. He's old and soon to retire. Doesn't teach well and his notes are a mess. The only thing I remember from that class is the jokes he made and not the chem stuff. Susan is much better and actually prepares you for exams. Ken: 2/10

Comment:

Text book: $15 and you use it in exams so its like a huge cheat sheet. He is really understandable and wants his students to pass with good grades but made a mistake this year by making the 2nd midterm really hard (avg 33%) but he learned and made the final easy. Overall not a bad prof
