Comment:
I've been a CTech for a few years, he is by far one of the worst professor I've had. He basically teaches himself the material. Unfortunately, you will have to read the book to pass the class (which isnt too bad). If he sees you're trying, he will pass you. Hand in ALL the homework, pay attention, and ask questions. He will curve your grade.

Comment:
Nice man but I would NOT recommend him. His methods are fair across the board, but if this is your first time being in University level Physics. I would say look for a professor who will give better explanations! HE DOES NOT GIVE MANY TESTS, so either you know this material well between 2 or 3 exams a semester, or expect not to do well.

PLEASE DON'T TAKE HIS CLASS. I'm currently taking his class. He's hard to understand. He teaches for himself. He goes too fast over one subject. What he explain in the blackboard is confusing, there's not order in examples on the board. It is too late to leave this class for me. I wish I hadn't taken his class at the beginning of semester.

Comment:
Had him for lab only. He is fair if you write good reports. Be on time and don't talk over him. He helps during experiments, but he is difficult to understand (thick accent). He wipes a few questions off each experiment or removes a run or two from the data table, so be thankful for that. He's not an egoist like the guy who wrote the lab manual.

I totally agree with the first person who posted his comments about him. Please, don't take his class and get a grade of F that you don't deserve. I'm going to complain against him to the chairman. Be he is a teacher from Polytech or whatever, ITS MY FREAKIN GRADE ON THE STAKE.You've been warned!

Comment:
No one understand what he says. Seems like he is only talking to himself. Talks about the subject really quick and really doesn't explain clearly questions that we may have. He is not a bad person but I wouldn't want to have him as a prof again.
