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.
