    Instructor comments: Mr. Moore was very knowledgeable in the subject area and kept us on target and interested in subject area by inputting relevant stories from his project management experience.

    Facilities comments: Room was adequate for the training environment just big enough for the class size and still not feel like a broom closet.

    User: trosale8

    Instructor comments: very knowledgeable and very supportive and empathetic. Taught us not only the content but the test-taking techniques. Instructor talks during lab/practice tests which is harder to concentrate.

    Instructor comments: great presentation

    Facilities comments: too cold

    User: fillyok

    Instructor comments: He has an excellent way of explaining things on the level that anyone can understand easily. I wasn't looking forward to this class at all but I'm really glad I attended now. I have a much clearer understanding of networking fundamentals that I never would've received via CBTs. I'd heard really good things about Tim Burkard's teaching skills and now I know they're true. I wouldn't mind taking other classes that he teaches,

    Facilities comments: The facilities are really nice and there weren't any problems as far as I could tell. The hotel staff is very nice.

    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.
