Very thoughtful and organized prof. Always there for students. His group presentation was fun and fairly graded. Finals was MC format. He is the real LEGEND !

Took GEO702 expecting the prof to be amazing, it was the worst elective I've ever taken. He was so focused on reading off the slides, and at the beginning of the year he mentioned how he would hint out what was coming on the quiz, however, the hints were so off. The quiz questions were extremely detailed and word to word. Doesn't reply to emails

Good prof, all tests were online and not cumulative. Everything that was covered in lectures were on tests and he gives hints too. Group assignments and presentation were fairly simple as well.

Awesome Professor! No curveballs, he is a straight shooter. He likes to see his students succeed! Hands-down, one of the best Professors at Ryerson. Must take!

Easy class, but you won't learn a lot. Takes up about a third of the class time with group work and presentation. Pretty much gives you the answers to the tests in class, just show up and he'll literally tell you when something is a test answer.

I don't regret going into this class. Mr.Simmonds is understanding and loves to see you in class. He literally gives you a hint on the quizzes and is generous with the group marks. Passionate about the course and imparts enthusiasm in you.

Absolutely wonderful professor and is actually there to help the student, unlike a lot of professors.

Hugh is a genuine good person. His material isn't too hard and gives a plethora of hints to his quizzes in lectures. However, I believe his in-lecture professionalism in public speaking is a front for his true intelligence. Some of his guidelines for assignments are confusing, along with the his syllabus and responses to questions asked. Solid guy.

Professor Hugh Simmonds definitely cares about the students as he listens to everyone's questions and provides feedback. But having him online is an absolute disaster. Constantly late for class (10-15 mins) and he is not tech savvy whatsoever.  Another terrible thing us students have to experience is his inorganization. If you can, stay away

Unprepared,lecture heavy, Inaccurate marking on tests and assignments, no clarification on assignments and does not post outlines or guidelines for them. Shows up late to every lecture, especially when there are tests. Many people dropped the class, were left stranded for group work, and had to find new groups by themselves. take this class online!
