25. Which things, if any, do you think your instructor did especially well?

Mr. Rho was very good with communicating to the students.

In class assignments together - collaboration

KEEP STUDENTS ON COURSE

Chris Rho is just awesome all around. Explains everything clearly and makes sure that everyones on the same page.

This is one of my favorite instructors by far. I love the way he is so very patient with all his students and is very thorough.

He is so very patient with everyone even when they would ask stupid questions or when they ask a question after he just gave the answer to

Chris Rho made sure that the class was able to get the point of what was being taught in the class.

explained things to where everyone can understand completely

Everything was explained in an understandable manner. And he was very helpful with any questions that the class had.

I think everything he did was done well. He explains clearly, understandable, and goes with the paste of the class.

explaining each assignment step by step and always having a smile on his face.

taking time to really explain the material make sure i understand

He described the subject matter in a very clear, easy to understand way.

I am thankful that he used the overhead projector as he was teaching . I found that very helpful and it made learning for me easier to get a hands on view of the weeks assignments.

Extremely attentive and takes the time to help each student when they are stuck. I really wish more instructors taught in his teaching style...he really seems to know that each student works and learns at their own pace and he allows each student to "be" where they are at and not make us feel like we have to hurry up and catch up.

I think Chris explained everything well. He always asks if anyone needs help as we go along. He also goes through step by step with the class on all the class assignments. He makes sure everyone is following with him if not he will go back and explain it again. Even if one student is more advanced then another he will stop and help his students. His students also help if there are multiple students that need help and they are sitting next to one of them.

He's very patient and teaches the class well. A great teacher!!!he is willing to go with you with the material course, until you will understand.

When his students need help about their classwork assignments and have questions, he helps us right away.

Open and patiently answers all question asked, in order for student to understand and keep up with assignments. Speaks clearly, at a normal pace.

The course was very well plan

26. What else would you like to say about this instructor?

He was always very patient with the students and knew how to explain things clearly for others to understand what needed to be done.

In the time period allotted everything went accordingly.

ENCOURGE STUNDENTS WHO ARE SLOW LIKE MYSELF TO TAKE MORE ADVANTAGE OF LAB

2 thumbs up. One of the best professors I've had by far at UHMC.

Very good hearted and very very genuine person. He shows so much respect for people no matter what walk of life they are. Like I said very patient. I couldn't teach this class and be as patient and kind as he is!

He is GREAT

He is most understanding to a students needs or if they are having a problem and may need his advice.

he is a great teacher and im going to take another of his classes in thge fall

He is very friendly and easy to get along with which seemed to make helping the students in the class with their questions go smoothly.

He is a great instructor...

great teacher!!!!

Great teacher

Great teacher, I hope that i get to be a student in one of his future courses.

I would really enjoy taking other classes with Mr. Rho. He is an excellent instructor.

I think Chris is a great teacher he helps his students out as much as he can. He wants to know that his students are learning in his class. He is always available for help. He is very understanding if something comes up he will work out with you so you are still able to hand in your assignments.

I hope he will continued to teach this class for many years to come. Because he will help so many people that take this class. Thanks for being a great teacher.

He's very nice, humble, funny and understanding

Creates a pleasant enviroment for class. Always smiling, encouraging and has a very good attitude.

Very patient

27. Comment on the instructor's concern for the students.

Mr. Rho was very understanding and was constantly doing one and one sessions with student after the days lessons to further explain the work.

Very appreciative.

He really makes sure that all of the students in the class are understanding what he is teaching , and makes sure that the students get extra help in the computer lab that they may need.

He was very accommodating and always helpful to students if the had questions about how to perform a certain task on the computer.

I would recommend Chris and this class to other students.......

Very proficient with our problems as students

If any student needed help, he would go around the room as quickly as possible when he noticed that hands were up.

He seems to care about his students a lot and want them to succeed

Is primarily concerned about each student learning and understanding what is being taught. I really enjoyed coming to his class, I never felt frustrated or discouraged, because he took the time to give each student his undivided attention if they did not understand something.

with good intentions

29. Other comments:

Probably I shuld take troubleshooting compuer class, because it is just like english and reading, it makes assignment work easier and manageable.

If all of the instructors taught as well as he does this survey would not be needed.

Chris is a fair instructor...

Great teacher learned a lot from his class

Keep up the good teaching.

Chris always has a smile on his face. He never gets frustrated with students no matter how many times he needs to repeat himself. That's how he gains respect from his students. His approach to teaching is very good. I would like more teachers like him. He likes to help out as much as possible.

He patiently teaches those that is slow to learn.

I would highly refer him to anyone interested in taking a computer course.

It was very hard for me and too much to comprehend.

25. Which things, if any, do you think your instructor did especially well?

the best math teacher i have ever had! explains everything really well!!!!

Teaching and instructing during the entire semester. Chris made sure everyone in the class was on the same page. So he has done his job really well.

Explain what to expect from a chapter

He made sure to do step by step on each major subject so that we understood it. Before the day of our exams he would go over the chapters to re-freshen our mind. Also, kept us up with his fun & energetic personality.

Chris is an awesome professor. He expalains of all the things that we needed to cover, step by step...

Helping us with our homework and explaining the new assignments. He also helps us with our exam review and encourages us.

He is very patient with his students

26. What else would you like to say about this instructor?

Very good instructor, organized, and professional.

Nothing special

He's an excellent teacher & I would recommend him to any student that needs to take up Buisness Math

He is a wonderful professor

VERY GOOD TEACHER!

He has great attitude towards what he teaches and how he treats his students.

I really enjoyed this class and having Chris as the instructor.

good teacher

Chris has a lot of patience with us students and he always finds time to help us

He's very entertaining and keeps the class interested with his examples and interaction with the entire class room. If there was anybody that asked me if I would recommend him for a teacher in the future, I would definitely say YES!He creates a relationship with the students where it's easy for us to talk to him but at the same time, there's a boundary between a teacher and student.

Chris Rho is the best instructor I had this whole year hes patient and very understanding I believe he has the best credentials and makes me enjoy class

27. Comment on the instructor's concern for the students.

None

Very Exellent

He walked around the class to help each student out & to see if we understood the math problems. Just by the way he teaches he students you can tell that he wants each of his students to succeed in his class & cares for us.

He shows a lot of concerns to each and everyone of the students...

He is very concern and willing to help all the students with homework and also finding internships.

He is concerned about you learning all what is needed to be learned in class.

Chris made sure that everyone was up to speed and gave everyone a very fair chance at getting the best grade possible.

very concerned for his students

No comments I think Chris is a really good teacher

He constantly checks up on his students, asking if we need help anytime we are doing homework or even practice problems. When we are doing examples during a lesson and we have any questions, he is more than willing to answer anything. While we're doing examples he also has us do some practice problems on the board just so that he can make sure that we understand how to do it.

he would schedule class time to do homework problems so that we all understand how to do them which helped a lot.

He is very dedicated in what he does he loves to teach and is reasonable to every students needs
