STUDENTS' COMMENTS ON TEACHER

Faculty:  SCHOOL OF COMPUTING Semester:  1
Module:PROGRAMMING METHODOLOGY - CS1101S
Activity Type:LECTURE

Q9  What are the teacher's strengths?
1.Willing to spend time to help students. Hardworking. Have good sense of humour. Instilled the coolness of Scheme among students.
2.Knowledge in the subject
3.Creating interest in the topic
4.Lifely. At least the class ain boring. He teaches at a fast pace, but not too fast, yet not too slow. Is like, u have to concentrate in class, or else u'll be lost. AND if u concentrate, u can follow his teachings quite well. Passionate about the subject, having favourite phrases to crack some mini-jokes to lighten our hearts. Very encouraging and dedicated!! Thx!!
5.He connects to the students very well. He also cares for the students, many of my peers regard him as a big brother rather than a lecturer.
6.He can explain complex ideas in a simple way to help student to understand.
7.he is pretty clear of what he has to say while teaching and knows his subject well and also has other information to give which make the subject much more interesting!!
8.energetic
9.He understand our difficulties and try to adapt his lecture in a way to clarify our doubt and difficulties.

Q10  What improvements would you suggest to the teacher?
1.Probably to communicate ideas more effectively by speaking more clearly. Examples given by him has always been helpful so probably want to arm himself with more different examples to explain concepts to students from varying backgrounds. Because of the students with different degree of experience with programming, more creativity used to teach the course can help to improve teaching further. You looked stressed! Relax.
2.Please teach as though the students dont have a programming background - dont assume that the students understand everything you say.
3.Speak slower *for the sake of non-singaporeans and non-malaysians*, lolz. The above poll is a true reflection of what i'm thinking. Not some simply-how-do survey! Rock on!!
4.None.
5.NA
6.he may slow down his talking speed
7.slow down the talking speed
8.Speak slowly and pronounce clearly the words.
