    Instructor comments: While I could tell the instructor was very knowledgeable, his instructions were not very clear. He could've done a better job preparing for the class.

    Facilities comments: Room was fine. The location of the room could have been better as the dings from the elevator were a bit distractive.

    User: TracyPaul

    Instructor comments: Very knowledgeable. Diagnosed our programming problems in short order. Could go into the details of 'why', versus only the 'how'.

    Facilities comments: Outstanding. The hotel staff did a great job supporting our class.
