Comment:
He has a nice personality. However, in-class he has absolutely no idea what he's talking about. If you google for about 5 minutes you can figure out topics and correct him. It's a pretty easy B if you want a higher grade just memorize what he says in class even if it's wrong. He also really likes drones.

Comment:
All he ever did was talk about his seniors and their drones and what they were doing. He always had the code wrong himself and we would have to correct him. He does not teach but says that he is just a facilitator and the teacher is tutorialspoint. I would not recommend him for a teacher because he lectures, but not on the material.

Comment:
Very bad teacher. He cannot teach the way the other professors do. It had been noticed that he does not have a consistent grading system. Furthermore, he goes off on tangents about robots and forgets what he's talking about a lot. I can fairly say I did not learn anything from his class.

Comment:
This guy is seriously the worst professor I've ever had. I cannot tell you how many times per class we correct him. Even his answer keys for quizes are consistently wrong! He uses technical terms that no one know and doesn't allow students to use computers to take notes. He also calls on people who are obviously lost because he thinks its funny.

Most of the class content was fiction, and the rest was off-topic. He taught as gospel blatantly incorrect information and resisted constructive correction.

He seems to be a teacher who once knew a lot about his field, but has since become outdated. I wouldn't take another course with him.

Absolutely terrible teacher. Goes way off topic to talk about robots or some other unrelated bullcrap. Managed to teach about 20% of what we were supposed to learn.

Just copy everything he puts on the screen into your notes. Study them for tests, and you have an A. Very hard to pay attention to though and often goes far off topic.

Cant explain anything in a clear manner, his handwriting is impossible to read, and often tests on material never discussed in readings or class. Unfit to be teaching .
