Comment:

the best one by far.if you are respectful to him,he will respect you and help you anyway he can.He knows a lot about the schools and he is willing to help you be a good teacher.His tests were fair. He is not very clear on what he expects, but if you take the time to find out he'll make it clear.Very encouraging.gets to know all his students

Comment:

I have to agree with some of the comments he did change the outline of the schedule but would let us know in enough time. I think he pretty cool and I got an A in his class. As long as he can tell you care about your grade and you participate in class regularly he will help you out.

Comment:

Prof. Is HORRIBLE. he doesn't clarify anything. Then when you do the work and it's not exactly what he wants you fail. doesn't cover material worth a crap. And all the assignments are useless and stupid. DO NOT TAKE HIM. he doesn't even know how to use the computer in the classroom

Comment:

He rewrites his syllabus about every 3 weeks, but still doesn't follow it. He lectures and gets off topic. He doesn't clarify what are on tests (and what is on them, wasn't covered in class). His papers seem useless. When you ask a specific question, he looks confused and tells a fellow student to explain it to you. Do not take him!!

Comment:

How many times is he going to change his syllabus and still not go by it? He is very vague, very unhelpful... and you can tell he is not motivated to be at school. If you ask him a question he acts like he doesn't know how to answer each time. His tests are ridiculous and never anything that was reviewed in class..

He's a great teacher, very polite and respectful and always willing to answer questions. Does not teach to timelines, but listens to student needs and goes at an appropriate pace in relation to how everybody catches on to the material.

Comment:

I thought that the class was very easy. Mind you I did not learn much. He was very unorganized and did not give assignments back. I got an A. he takes attendance each class period, so as long as you partcipate in discussions and attend class you will be okay.

Comment:

So disorganized! I was confused most of the sememster. I learned a little but not near as much as I had hoped to. Although I made an A, I wouldn't suggest taking him if you're really serious about learning things in Foundaitons.

Comment:

He is very disconnected/unclear.This is a FOUNDATIONS class and he talks to everyone like we've been teaching for 50 years.MARRY your book! Class time is useless except for petty homework/group assignments and of course attendance.He's a prophetic teacher-show some effort and he'll curve your grade
