Professor Turford is one of the greatest professors I've had in my 28 years on Earth. Engaging, brilliant, and extremely well versed in the subject he teaches, if you skip this course you're only hurting yourself.

Admiral Turford is legendary. I had him for second semester database. He makes you work for it, but it's because he wants you to succeed. If you aren't lazy and actually put in work, you will get a good grade. Turford is always there for you. Turford will never let you down.

Comment:

To say the least, I was very underwhelmed by his teaching (online Databases) after reading all of these reviews and expecting something amazing. He provides one video a week for 10-20minutes of content with a quiz. Youl have to be motivated to self-teach if you have him online or you will risk failing this course.

The Admiral himself. All around great guy, lots of energy with a clear passion for teaching. Explains concepts clearly and is always ready to help anyone who has questions. Makes lectures fun to attend with his hilarious stories and jokes. 5/5 can't wait for next year when I have him again.

Probably the best prof Ive had in all my years of school. He tells a lot of stories that actually tie into the lecture and help you and is very caring. He makes sure we understand and is more than willing to help you out whenever needed. Really funny guy too. I would definitely recommend him and would take any of his classes if they come available.

The admiral is truly hilarious, but also knows his stuff. If you ever get him one-on-one, he gives great professional and entrepreneurial advice as well.

The admiral is one of those teachers that inspires you to get out of bed for an 8am class, even if you have to bus for an hour to get there on time. He gave our class the answer to half the projects in class, and would answer anybodies question, in or out of class.

The guy's a genius and it's clear he has mountains of experience. He will tell funny stories but he won't waste time with it. He's supportive and inspiring. Talking specifically about the Mobile Web Development class, I actually race home excited to work on projects and do homework.

Great teacher. Funny. Engaging. Clear. Cares about the welfare of his students. If you have him for business pay attention because he drops wisdom like it's hot.

Admiral Turford is a great prof. Makes sure everyone in lecture is engaged and understands material. Hilarious. Starts class exactly on time every time. Fastest marker I have seen. Easy marker, if you come to class and show some understanding you will succeed.
