He is hard marker, for sure, but he knows his staff and he is sharp. You have to work hard in his class and show interest in the subject. Nobody from my class dropped it.

Knows his stuff. It's his way or the highway but a good guy overall. Coughs every like 20 seconds alittle annoying. Pay attention and you'll do fine.

Great logic teacher! Some students had problems but that was because they wouldn't accept that with logic it is either right or it's wrong.

Took him for my second round of logic. I understood logic quite well and he marked me according to attendance like anderson. He is by far the worst logic instructor in CST. Go with Humphrey or Kari Waddingham.

Comment:
Lucky for me, I had plenty of previous computing experience. He'd simply read us a text book and expect us to figure out the labs and tests developed by another instructor. I know _a lot_ of CST grads, going back to the early '90s. Not one has anything good to say about this guy.

I seriously don't know how this instructor became a CST teacher. Seriously. He would write maxxsim code on the board and get everyone to copy it down then in the middle of the class he would turn around and say, "OH MY GOD, this is all wrong."

One of the MOST qualified instructors teaching CST NAIT programs - MANY (not all) of the people with problems regardign Terry are the same students who expect the instructor to do all the work - Some even play games in class and the compain

Spends too much time answering one question, has recently decided to teach one side of the class. Doesn't upload any examples for Assembler up to the internet to help us. He is quite condescending when answering questions. Overall he needs a big adjustmen

Terry is a good teacher, he trys really hard to teach the students what they need to know... It isn't always the teacher that is the problem... If you don't do the exercises then you will not do good in maxxsim. Don't blame a teacher for your laziness

One of the worst instructors I've ever had. This is his attitude when a students asks a question "WHAT!!! You didn't get it from my example!"PFFT so I'm teaching myself his course. Makes me wonder what I've paid NAIT anything for.

Terry is a hop-head. He was born in a time when computers were just starting and was able to grasp subjects as they grew slowly. He believes that his students are stupid for asking questions and uses body language and smug looks to show this.

Now heres the problem with Terry. Hes definatly a nice guy outside the classroom. But you also gotta remember he knows MaxxSim soo well that he thinks we should pick it up more easily than we do. I hate how he makes you feel like a RETARD for asking a Q!!
