Comment:
I don't know what people are complaining about. This is a basic computers class about excel, access, and stuff so of course it's going to be boring. Yes, the class average for the midterm was 65 but you can easily get a 90 with minimal effort if you just attend class, which most people don't so too bad.

Comment:
Horrible! Very boring, is unclear, and has no interest in class. He will bore you to death. The class is all about word/excel/access & a little bit about other things. Very easy class but if you don't know much about excel/access you have to attend class. You will die of being bored out of your mind.

Absolute crap. His teaching is unclear and the assignments and tutorials don't match up with lessons he teaches.It also doesn't help that he puts you to sleep with his voice.

The most useless lectures. You learn nothing. Hope you have some prior knowledge of coding; cause you're screwed otherwise.

I want to preface this by saying that Reichstein is a really nice guy. But sometimes I wonder if he's not suffering the early signs of dementia. Very unclear -- everyone hates his lectures. HOWEVER, he's not responsible for the content of tests or assignments. That's Louis Nel. So don't blame him. They switched to a language he doesn't even know!

He's absolutely terrible! This prof will not help you, and if you ask him a question he will spend 20 minutes answering it but in the end, you wont really have an answer. Also he mumbles and uses a mic and you still cant understand him

If you're going to take this course make sure you enjoy math, otherwise It's hell on earth. He just rambles and makes things that should be easy seem difficult and confuse you. COMP 1004 A. Not to be mistaken with COMP 1001 A for arts students!!

Worst lectures ever. Repeats himself over and over gain, never moving on and actually teaching what we need to know in order to do the assignments. Ridiculous teacher!

Where to start...he left class for half an hour to find chalk, during the midterm he kept announcing mistakes in the test and telling US to be quiet, goes on random rants to do with nothing, I'm seriously learning ctrl, alt delete right now, doesnt know how to use the mic, or the projector, and is late to class a lot. Such a JOKE.
