Bragging time

I don't give T much blog time (he doesn't really want any), but I am so proud of him. Since most of you are out of college (some by several decades) you have no idea there is web site where students can rate professors. Students visit the website, read ratings of professors they might want to take or rate the ones they have taken. As a general rule, the faculty at any given college don't put a lot of stock in the reviews since it is too easy to be critical when comments cannot be traced. I do think the site lets you catch on to general strengths or weakness of a professor though. Students rate their professors based on their Helpfulness, Easiness level, Clarity and then they rate their own interest in the subject being taught. What amazes me about T is that students consider him rather difficult but still give him high ratings. I wish I had a math teacher like him. T's always been an excellent scripture teacher. For natural teachers I guess the gift follows into all areas (he's a good soccer coach for 6-year-old girls too!)
Here's a link to his ratings:
