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: The material was made clear, however I don't agree that she shouldn't have catered towards the people not taking the exam.

    Facilities comments: The facilities were cold and very noisy, I found it hard to concentrate.
