I took "Nanoscience and Technology" class from him. He does not speak perfectly but it is understandable. The course required lots of work but not very tough work due to its being multidisciplinary class. There were weekly hws (20%) which were generally not very difficult but required to review the lecture notes and some google search. I mean they took some time. Other than, there were totally 4 quizes (25%) which were multiple choice 5-6 questions. Although I was fine, I will not give good feedback about these since they were a lot tricky. In one quiz, I was the lowest of the class whereas in another I was the highest. So, if you need to be lucky. Also, there were more than 1 correct answer; but the Prof. said "select the most correct" :) It was really weird. There was not a midterm but a final (30%) and a class project(25%) that required a team work and a class presentation but not any additional report. Final was composed of analytical problems, multiple choice questions and concept questions. It was not easy also not hard. Class presentations needed to be mainly based on a new idea that you would purpose. You need to organize your team and propose a novel idea to solve a scientific or technical problem. Finally, the grading seems not bad.
