Reviews of professor Paul Burgess

Rating: 2.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Just reads off a slide show. Never shows you how he gets numbers or how he does the examples. Not very accessible as he has another job outside of his teaching responsibilities.

Ridiculously tough grader. Get the process correct but make a carry-through error? MINUS 50%. Mess up SigFigs? Minus 10%. Each time. Lectures are absolutely appalling (pun-intended) They're recycled powerpoints that he just talks over, with zero hand written examples and feedback is non-existent. Half the content is irrelevant. This course is awful

I have surveying experience, I have worked in the field as a surveyor, yet this man teaches so horribly that I have no idea what is going on in class. There are weekly assignments where you have to teach yourself everything and hope that it's right (it won't be). Paul makes me hate surveying and want to drop out of engineering all together.
