Probably the worst teacher ever. There was no point to even goto class except on Friday's for the quizzes because all he did was read off the Power Point slides and then post them on Angel. Tests were so long for 50 minutes. What a dick.

Comment:

This guy is BAD, had him Freshman year. He couldn't make a clear presentation if his life depended on it. He won't help you out at all and if he does he'll make you feel like a retard. I asked him a ques. and he told me to drop the course! Worst prof I've ever had at Behrend (and I'm a Junior).

WORST TEACHER EVER. He can not teach, his notes are horrible, he's always making mistakes, and his tests are unbelievably hard... not to mention that he doesn't curve. The average on the final was a 41%.

Comment:

Not a good teacher. He's difficult/unwilling when you go to him for help. He makes FREQUENT mistakes on the board, which he sometimes doesn't correct for days. His tests have gotten either ruthlessly hard or too long to finish in an hour.

Comment:

This professor does not teach the class well, he'll stand in front of the projector so you can't see the notes. His test average for the first test was a 50.9, with the honors class included, so it would be a 35 without them. Horrible professor.
