He is a nut! No one can understand him, nor can he as he changes by the second. He does not like Americans, as he thinks all Americans are lazy and sorry. He times the class to the last second also and if a student is late for class, he takes it off the students grade. I would not recommend this class to anyone.
I actually think I may have been in the same class as the other person who rated him. I agree with everything, plus here`s some more: MatSom is the worst teacher I`ve ever had. He doesn`t give any tests and the `assignments` if you want to call them that that he gives out are never given back until the VERY END of the semester so you have no clue what grade you have in the class. The projects that he assigns make no sense and when students asked questions about it he got all upset and started yelling at us. Don`t take this class unless you enjoy torture...seriously.
He is the worst teacher i've ever had.You can't understand him at all, and his grading system is crazy. The quizes are hard and the powerpoints are long and make you go to sleep. The sad thing is there is no way around this class. Good luck
