Not very helpful. Was going through a lot personally with my family and he showed no compassion.ESC1525 2014-03-31 14:50:12 +0000 UTC
His class is all lecture, he never asks anything but I guarantee that if you don't miss a class, he remembers who is not in class and read the book you will pass this class with an A.ESC4992 2006-09-13 13:04:51 +0000 UTC
Reads bullets from PPTs which are singular points from the book and are not really explained. Quizzes are not relevant to in-class lectures, discussions or movies but to obscure topics from the text.
