William was nuanced in his approach to the subject of geography. He utilised real-world experiences to facilitate understanding and helped me navigate the course as I had never taken a geography course.

Comment:

He's a professor who is very passionate about his work. He is very strict about computer use in his class, he yelled a few times at students for using Facebook. The assignments are time consuming and not so easy, but he will help with any questions in person or over email. A very interesting course and I would recommend taking it.

Comment:

This professor is one of the best I've had at York. You rarely come across a professor who cares about his students and believes in everyone's potential. His assignments are not easy but he will walk you through them and give you a bunch of useful resources. You will learn a lot in his class.

The papers and exams are very hard...but I worked very hard to get a B in the end but was bell-curved down to a C because the class average had to be 60. =(

Comment:

All these people have only been talking about the lectures...but they didnt mention the exams and paper. This course is too much for a 1st year course. Alot of work and little return.Sometimes they ask you the smallest thing that was covered in the lectures. No body cares about students because there are too many of them. A tells you to ask B and B

Comment:

Sometimes his lectures are so boring and unclear that you just want to break the slides. As a person he is very helpful , but sometimes he acts like " I have things more important than you , so hurry up".

He just reads from his slides, quotes a lot from famous people. But always stutters during his talks and contradicts himself.

The best out of the three profs for the class. He had a very good powerpoint w/ actual words not just pictures. And he would explain each point. Very helpful prof. love his lectures.

I find his lectures very interesting and easy to follow. My marks are lower in his classes than any other though. I'd take his course again because I like what he lectures about and how he lectures. He also like Black Sabbath!
