He keeps course on track and moving. He is full of knowledge and shares experiences. And assures you he will be available for questions in the future.

Course had good information but instructor did not keep to the printed schedule which is in the course book. He cut 2 of the lunches short by at least 20 minutes one by 30. If you are not from the area which I am not then trying to navigate lunch traffic is problematic. He also veered off topic into long winded stories about his personal work experiences. One per topic would suffice.
