He is one of the best professors at FAU.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n ___________________________________________<\/p>\n Fall 2024 Comments<\/strong><\/p>\n \u201cWhat I liked most about this course was the amount of help available for the students from the teacher.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n \u201cThe teaching style is right down my alley. Going over stuff in class that is clear and easy to understand, giving quizzes each week to make sure you’re staying on top of the information, and having exams that are relatively easy if you have been paying attention in class. It’s a lot of volume, but if you pay attention and do the work, it’s a fun and easy class.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n \u201cThe teaching method was enjoyable and engaging\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n \u201cThe reviews he would give for the upcoming midterm and Final exams. I also liked how he went over the hw with us to make sure we knew how to do it.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n \u201cThe professor was very nice and very clear of his expectations for the class\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n \u201cThe professor is very engaged and provides his help aside from the lectures\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n \u201cThe hybridization between more traditional teaching methods (aka whiteboard) with technology aided learning components. The fact that despite the course being more traditional we still have the zoom recordings and pre-developed PDF documents with the material is a good combination which caters to students.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n \u201cProfessor T is very clear on what he wants for homework and quiz and whats on exams is what is being taught in class.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n \u201cit was very organized and not cluttered like most teachers\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n \u201cI love most about this course Dr T personality and how he express his self to the class and help us stay engage\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n \u201cI found the structured approach to complex Hydrologic engineering concepts to be highly effective. The lectures were both engaging and well-organized, facilitating a clearer understanding of topics such as precipitation analysis and runoff prediction. The incorporation of real-world examples and practical applications significantly enhanced my comprehension and illustrated the relevance of the material in practical contexts\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n \u201cDr. T was very engaging and the use of drawn out notes with figures and examples helped a lot for the exams\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n \u201cDr. T was very energetic and interested in the subject as well as seeing students succeed, it was nice to have a professor that was actively offering any help needed\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n \u201cDr. T made every lecture interesting, not just because of his interest and knowledge in the subject, but also how aware he is of the student’s ability to pay attention to detailed information for so long. His frequent breaks to ask how the students are doing or to tell a story or to make a joke are very well timed and not distracting from the content being taught, but a break that is welcomed. The exams were very fair as well as the homework and project which are only there to help you learn and improve your grade, not to hurt or overload you with work. Overall, one of my favorite classes I have taken at FAU.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n \u201cDr. T gives comments on all quizzes to better your understanding of the concepts taught during the course. This level of time and effort speaks to the level of care he brings into the classroom. All the lectures were recorded for viewing and if questions were asked he always took the time to answer them. A relatively organized canvas makes the organization of this class easy to follow as well.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n \u201cDr T might be one of my favorite professors i have ever taken. He is very straightforward with his lectures. This class is not easy, but Dr T does a great job with giving you all the tools you need to succeed.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n \u201c Dr T is very involved in the students and ensure you pass.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n \u201c That all the lectures are not just Power Points. Dr. T actually hand writes all of his lectures which is extremely helpful when it comes to learning the information. (Please do not stop doing this)- Dr. T always encourages questions and doesn’t make students feel that they are dumb for doing so.- All of the hours that he offers for help is absolutely amazing!- All of the files in canvas are so nicely organized!! There are no files from previous semesters that have nothing to do with this semester. This is great as it does not become overwhelming and everything is so easy to find. (From the bottom of my OCD heart, thank you!!)\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n \u201cProfessor T is extremely knowledgeable of the coursework and explains things in a way that is straight forward and easy to understand. He makes every class interactive and is a great people person. He does great reviews and is always available to help with assignments and projects\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n \u201cThis course was overall great and I do not have any suggestions for improvement\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n \u201cThere is nothing to point for improvement. The class is well structured and taught\u201d<\/em> \u201cI genuinely have no improvements for this class. The effort put in my Dr. T is infinitely more than what is seen in other classes.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n \u201cI appreciate Dr. T’s excitement for hydrology concepts. :)\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n \u201cGreat teacher, very thorough and very invested in his topic\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n \u201cDr.T is an excellent teacher who really cares about his students success\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n \u201cDr. T is truly a great professor.
