He struggles explaining things in class. When students ask questions he gets confused and says something else. We learn from labs and his notes but his classes are not useful. Would not suggest to anyone.

Comment:

Very heavy accent makes it difficult to understand him. He has difficulty understanding students questions and tends to just repeat the last thing he taught instead of properly answering. The material is years outdated but very simple. I didnt learn much in class but what I did learn was from reading the slides by myself. The labs are useless.

Comment:

He has a fairly heavy accent, so at times it can be difficult to understand what he says, but he still manages to emphasizes to students that he is there to help. His marking is weird, but his assignments and labs are very easy. Exams are fair. Be aware of possible mistakes in notes, assignments, labs and programs though.

Comment:

If I have to hear him say "It is really quite simple" one more time I may scream. He has terrible english, and he just knows his algorithms, there is no connection to the coding. His "programs" which you use for everything are outdated (errors everywhere), and he doesn't know how to answer questions properly. I don't know how he marked the midterm

Comment:

Incomprehensible says most of it. For the rest, learned nothing, his course material has nothing to do with whats on the tests. Assignments ridiculously easy, strengthening the "not learning anything" aspect. 0.

Comment:

Unbelievable final exam - Unbelievable final grade. (Unbelieveable professor) - Maybe he is a good teacher for 3000 level courses and/or 2 years ago, but my first course gets "F" by his course. (My mistake was believed his leture notes and his easy mid-term test.) Finally, I will never to take his courses again. Good luck

Dr. Chen is a great professor. Just be patient with him, his English has improved considerably and continues to. His courses proved to be very valuable to me after grad.

Comment:

Severe language barrier. Very heavy accent. He does not understand questions asked in class because he stuggles with the english language. I don't understand why we can't find English speaking Canadian citizens to teach at the post secondary level.
