If every school had ten Ranev's, then we'd be living on the moon!!!

I sacrifice a hundred oxen unto thee... unless you don't want me to...

Love the guy, but don't miss a class...no posted notes!

Will give you bonus marks for writting jokes on your exams....gotta love that

Java man is good

He's admitted to being wrong, he's awesome

Svillen's awesome. Loves his work, and gets along with everyone!

Brilliant man, great guy, amazing teacher.

One of the best teachers I have ever had.

After Rex Woollard the best teacher in school

If you want to suck up his knowledge, pick up smoking :)

Algonquin's most valuable asset.

Svillen is the shizat. A+.

Very wise.

He is a genius

He really knows what he is talking about.

good guy always seems to want to help you. Works hard to show you exactly what you did wrong

Awesome teacher! This guy really knows his****, and not only takes the time to help, but goes out of his way. Very few teachers take the time to actually go through your code, read it and make helpful/useful comments.

He wants students to succeed in his course and does his best to help us. I love his odd sense of humour. Mind you, he won't go through your codes, unless you have a serious problem with them. He challenges me to think, think and think more. I am learning a lot from him.

the best of the best no doubt. A teacher with a PHD, 2 MASTERS, plus all his Java certificates :), VERY INTELLIGENT PERSON, I have always got my questions answered no matter what they were, you ask and he answers, in all aspects :) GOD BLESS YOU, even though you dont believe in him :P

I must admit that I don't like Java. However, he is very knowledgeable in object-oriented programming paradigm, and this makes the course worthwhile to take. Sv. I am trying my best to fall in love with Java, although to me it doesn't seem like spring breeze.

Probably the best teacher I have ever had at this school. Incredibly knowledgable about the subject matter he teaches, and more than willing to help his students when they need it, Svillen is the kind of teacher I wish the rest of my profs were. It's easy to be smart, it's harder to be able to pass that on to others. Thanks, Svillen!

Svillen Quotes: "Java Is Beautiful!" "Not only are you a liar, you are an inconsisten liar" "You are trying to tell me one of two things, Either I am Stupid, or you are Stupid. Both are true." "We will always be smarter than our computers because we can always hit them with a Hammer"

Svillen quotes continued, "I have to get rid of my smurfies, because they start to eat away my books." "When your buffer overflows, I cry and so does my dragons." "what is your problem? Just go away and write your scanner."

Cross Compiler, I really understand what compiler is.

Svillen is one of the best teachers at algonquin (at least in computers). He makes the class fun (and funny) and those that don't like are those that are too lazy to do the work. He helps everyone, even folks like me who come to him with very hard problems and GIANT assignments (sorry svillensmurf). Good job, keep it up

Great teacher!

Best teacher at Algonquin period. He loves to teach and it is apparent in his willingness to help ANYTIME. Amazing for both Compilers and Digital.

I LOVE THIS PROF SoOoOo MUCH, he is very nice and cool.

One of the best teachers I've ever had. Great personality. Loved talking to him, even though I found myself smoking more lol.

It's a good thing they put this guy half way through the program or less people would finish I think. Definitely encouraged me.

Very good teacher. Very patient

Excellent professor. Very clear and concise explanations.

He's a great teacher, helpful and is fun.

Simply the best :) Love this guy

He is awesome. He motivates his students to study . He makes hardest of things so interesting that one goes to the bottom that things and find JOY there. I Wish all teachers in this world were like him . HE says " To listen to someone with patience is also education .

Fantastic teacher, incredibly intelligent and able to make dry material fun to learn

The most helpful teacher i have met at the college, very easy to talk to. He will go out of his way to help you if needed.

Trial by fire course. Prepare to spend every waking hour of your life on compilers assignments. Hard concepts to understand. Really thick accent makes it difficult to understand at times. One of the best professors in this department.

The best professor I've ever had. And if you don't picking up smoking (or you already smoke), he provides a wealth of knowledge outside the lectures on breaks. I only wish we were able to clone him to replace most of the faculty.

One of the best professors in the department period. The assignments are hard and you have to work for the marks but they are fair. Be sure to start assignments early and ask questions if you need help with anything. He will be always happy to help. It was truly an honour to be taught by this professor. 10/10 brilliant prof.

Can't think of a single negative thing to say about Svillen, so I'll skip to the positive. Such a bright guy it's clear he could make way more cash outside of the school, but his passion for teaching keeps him there. That passion will result in your thorough satisfaction with any class he teaches. I attribute a large chunk of my success to him.

Best Professor in the Department. Hands down!

Hands down the best teacher I have had. He knows everything about what he is teaching and manages to explain himself very well while maintaining a dry humor. The class is difficult but the marking is fair and it will just take a bit of effort to succeed.

All the people complaining about Svillen are stupid losers who are likely complaining because theyre failing. Svillen is hilarious and brilliant, yet decent and just. Only complaint about Svillen is that it takes 4 hours to prep an already completed assignment to meet his exhausting submission requirements, lol.

Great teacher.

He knows his sheet and is incredibly patient. 10/10 prof.

His compilers course is among the hardest courses I have ever taken.

Awesome prof!

Legendary.

Svillen is easily the best teacher in the entire program. If you have any problems with the course, talk to him and he will go out of his way to make sure you do well.

Svillen actually cares about his students. Be prepared to show up during office hours with questions. Compilers is a tough course, but he gives entertaining and very informative lectures. Pay attention to assignment feedback.

Wow Beast teacher at Algonquin. Even If i had failed his class I would still love him

Svillen is a great professor! He makes the Compilers lectures as engaging as possible (some of the material can be a liiiittle dry) and he gives extensive feedback on your assignments. He makes himself available to help his students pretty much all the time. Take advantage of having him as your prof, you can learn a lot from him!

Best professor of the program. Clearly likes the subject and knows a ton about it. If it were a lesser prof, this particular class might be impossible.

Had a dragon costume for Halloween. Svillen is awesome.

The course is very difficult but it's doable because Svillen is such an excellent professor. The people rating negatively are the ones who thought they could scrape by without doing any work but they have been given ample warning by the professor - he is very consistent in making himself available and reminding you to work on your assignments.

He should teach every course. He's amazing.

I took the Compiler course TWENTY years ago when Professor Ranev was teaching. At that time there was no online assessment. Taking the time now. The course took a lot of effort - but that's what life should be. You won't really appreciate something if it doesn't take work. Pay attention, listen, and work to pass. Great class to attend. Thanks.

This class is legit the best class I have ever taken. The content is extremely interesting, and Svillen (the prof) is very knowledgeable and funny. I have taken this course 3 times passing on the 3rd time. I would take this course again, but that would mean I will not graduate if I don't pass. You need to study hard for this course!
