You wont ever understand what he is teaching. Need to study urself

He is speaking so fast that on one can understand him. His lecture even will make you confuse. His quiz will make your mad. His test and quiz is really hard, even you remember all the things in the book you still can not answer his questions. And his assignment is really hard and he will take mark down even if you don't name the file correctly.

He does not know what his teaching , his a brainless professor needs to study for his degree again.

Get ready to learn rocket science. Get ready to fail as well.

Just don't ever decide to take him. He teaches poorly, just doesn't care about students. he is too fast. He thinks everybody is multi-tasking. JUST DON'T TAKE HIM. YOU'LL GO CRAZYYYY.

He is very tough grader and talks about his own work experience most of the time in class. You will not understand what he is speaking/teaching and get ready to study days and nights. You will regret at the end! His way of taking exams does not really checks your knowledge about the concepts/course.

worst prof. never take his class. even he doesn't know what he is teaching and he deducts your marks for small things.

worst prof. never take his class.

He is the worst professor ever. Demotivates students at times. Made life hell in the semester by giving a lot of assignments. Would never recommend to anyone.

If you are already software developer, them there is chance to pass. Else no way you can pass this course without having great programming skills.

Be prepare to either drop it mid-way or fail the course as he would do everything in his power to make your semester a living hell. From what he cover in class and his lab, you are better of if you watch Youtube and do the study by yourself. A horrendous professor who would go as far as dropping profanities in class

DO NOT TAKE THIS TEACHER. Terrible. At first he looks cool, makes jokes, you can even laugh at his classes. And he is also helpful, which makes you think he can be flexible. The problem is that it is intolerable, you either get it right or you get it right. If an error appears in your program it is zero.

Very, Very, Very hard tests and assignments... He gives a very hard assignment in the first week of the class.

believe me, if you're a beginner, DONT TAKE HIS CLASS... I'm a beginner and he teaches too fast and his labs are way too hard. don't lose hope for yourself, you can/will do it but not with him.

No matter how well you write your homework, you can only get a score of 25%-50% as long as there are typos. Even if it's just a punctuation mistake. He won't even look at your code. And you only have two days to complete your weekly homework. He will not help you set environment variables and answer the questions you encounter

Put in the work and you will learn a lot. However you will still be crying. I came to the course knowing my fair share of php, and this is still the hardest course I've ever taken. There's little to no help outside of class. Assessments are extremely hard and sometimes downright unfair. Take him if you want to learn and don't care about grades

You'd think the lectures get better down the semester. Nope, they get worse and worse. I'm not exaggerating, he teach one course in 102 minutes. His assessments are really, really tight on time: prepare so have 60 minutes to read 4+ pages of requirements and write at least 500+ lines of code.

You get to learn a lot... On your own. His lectures are really fast without much explaination, and all you'll be learning is through reading his demo code. His tests and assignments are really hard with a very tight time frame. I wouldn't say "don't take him", but please know you'll likely to regret it, even after all you've learned

DONT TAKE HIS CLASS.

Rahim is a nice guy, but I believe he's ideas about teaching are mostly wrong. Yes he knows the content, but the way he teaches is unfair for those who don't have IT background. It does not push you forward, it stresses you out. It is challenging, but it seems to me that the challenges are imposed to satisfy his ego instead of improving your skills

Just plain unfit to teach. Ignoring obvious unprofessionalism and messy lectures, Rahim knows his material by heart, however as much as he can explain he can't teach at all. All hands on and the only practice you get is from hard labs that are unrelated to what was taught in class. Also you don't even get feedback until a month later nor a solution

I ignored these reviews and took him anyway as I wanted to learn. It was definitely not worth it. Don't ever take his class, the reasons are already stated in the other reviews. Just wait a semester or take another class instead. I really don't want anyone to make the same mistake as I did.

His course is insane. It's super hard, but he even doesn't answered well when student asked through the message........ If you can avoid him, do it as possible, not kidding.

rahim is a very terrible teacher. he makes you do labs and exercises, says that everything he presents and gives as homework will be on the test but it is untrue. He'll give you really complex tests and quizzes. do not take this professor, don't waste you time and money. theres a reason why his class are half empty from the start.

Don't make a mistake of taking course with him. You'll regret. Don't expect to pass in course. Just listening to him non useful talks and you'll not learn anything. For assisgnnet don't expect good marks just read 3-4 pages of submission guiidelines that can be changed anytime whenever he wants even before few hours of submission.

This guy thinks that his class is the only class you're taking for the whole sem. His assignments take more than 8hrs and thats every week. Imagine that much work, cramped into a test or a quiz but even HARDER. Really would not go back to his class again.

Not the best - not the worst. Just kida bring. Man, he loves to talk himself.

Quizzes will be fairly easy, midterm will have a file reading and appending/writing exercise with few additional functionality like changing colors or date type. Final will be hard. Use rest Client, read the file and insert directly into the database and then update the data using the rest client. Be average in exams and you will be good.

He thinks good teaching means tough exams! Instead of working harder on the quality of his teaching, makes his exams harder.

Worst professor I've ever seen. Don't make mistake taking a course with him you will regret it. Don't expect to get marks even after working the whole week just for his subject because the amount of work will make you forget that you also have other subjects and other work to do. After all these hard work, don't expect to get any marks.

Do NOT take his course. He will make the simplest topic as hard as possible and he literally laughs at students because he can make them struggle. He doesnt care about your background, the colleges guidelines. He does as he please and his directions in labs and assignments are unclear. Honestly shame on Douglas for hiring such professors.

The professor's behavior was erratic. Most of his instructions were very confusing. If you try to ask for clarification, expect a sarcastic answer. Very long time to get answer when there's a concern. He makes his exams the same day so he will not be able to double check his questions.

This professor is nuts! he has mental health issues. He laughs at himself during discussions

The professor's teaching methods are below average. His instructions in exams are very confusing, students usually wasted time trying to understand. The class started 21 students; after midterm, we were down to 8. Now I understand why.

Waste time and money, just like what others' reviews said. If you wanna waste money, then go for him.

It's not possible to pass this course from what you learn in class. You wouldn't learn anything. So unless you already know the course, then don't bother registering for it. You wouldn't learn, you'll just have lots of assignments with vague criteria and one typographic error will make you fail the course. It's a waste of money. Just my opinion

RUN AWAY OF HIS LECTURE!YOU WILL LEARN EVERYTHING FROM YOUR OWN!UNREASONABLE ASSIGNMENT EVERY WEEK!

He is somewhat funny in terms of his jokes and have a good sense of humor but i dont like his teaching style and he doesnt want anyone to be late but he is late himself which is kinda funny, he is also constantly rude to me and other students as well.

The professor just enjoy writing his code in the lecture. If you already knew that language, you can take this course, otherwise, definitely not.

Professors like him are the reason many people hate school. Doesn't releases a single announcement on exams/assignments, hasn't uploaded a single piece of content the past 4-5 weeks His assignments aren't even reviewed in class, he just gives a task and it's up to you to spend hours of research and studying to figure it out. Very pathetic "prof"

I wished Rahim could see this comment. He is a good person, but not good at teaching at all. He should understand that students are also human, we pay for our education which meant we want to learn and get out the knowledge from the class room. We also working to get money to pay for the course. Rahim should respect and understand this.

I never give any professor a 1 star for grading, but Rahim should not be a professor at ALL. He is lacking of humanity as a professor. He doesn't care about students. He never be reachable during his office hours. His assignments are messy. He give out assignment with no clear guidance and expect you have to be perfect at them.

WORST professor in my entire life ! Exams are time consuming, and assignments are not clear and you have to run around to ask other students for guidance, but no one know. The entire class has bad grade and he doesn't care. Seats in class was 35 but only 15 people registered and by the midterm there only 10 in the class.

What a tough grader for a guy who knows nothing about computer science! Oh sheesh, his classes are miserable and he thinks he is grading masters students. OH $%#%$$%$

Hates everything and everyone. Never worth taking. Will pile on homework week after week that's due nearly instantly. I did good and it was still misery.

Poor professor who makes many mistakes yet expects perfection from his students.

Rahim is the worst prof I've ever had. Most professors at VCC are part time and it shows because his lack of care. His labs are vague and he doesn't show solution after submission are closed. He marks so slow that we went into the exam with only 3/8 of the labs marked. You could be passing the course, but he'll make you feel like you're failing.

He doesn't care much for students and doesn't care if you fall behind. He was going through the material quickly with limited explanation for theory. Inflexible and even take attendance when there is a bus union strike.

I literally learned nothing from him. He never even replied to my email. I guess never care about his students. In class, his code always gives error and stuck for a while. But really tough grader.
