Additional Comments
As far as a teacher, he is probably the best person to get for CS-230. While his name does not suggest it, he is an American. He is willing to help on VB programs and seems to want students to do well in the course, but he does have his problems. Sadly, his exams test a student's IQ rather than his or her ability to actually work out Visual Basic Problems. Whenever you have to write code on the exams, he gives very little partial credit. Also, his exam are all cumulative, which means that all of his exams are like taking a final exam. Also on these exams, many problems will come from the notes, but he will always have one problem worth 20 points that is a million times harder than anything you have done so far in the course, which means an 80% is as high as you can hope to get unless you are some kind of CS prodigy.

You have three exams (not including the final) and he takes the average of the two highest exams. You have NO homework other than three or four short computer programs that you have to create.

My suggestions if you take Shindhelm (he is a good teacher):
- Know class notes like the back of your hand
