All government TAFES should have the latest surveillance cameras installed in all lecture rooms, indoor corridors, and outside buildings as well as live video recording at all times.

This has to be possibly one of the most unreliable learning institutions I have ever been to
Lets start with teachers
Composition (Cluster) teacher, does not want to actually teach you rather just talk at you, forget about asking questions, he dismisses you then says you're getting off topic
What is unusual, he pressured me in class to ask him a q, 45 mins later we still did not have an answer, in 10 seconds off Google I knew the answer
I withdrew from his class and got a full refund, this teacher is not interested in passing you, I made many attempts in asking what homework was required and he just simply changed the subject
On 2 different occasions he also addressed me about how I had a small attention span and what was I going to do to fix this
Fact of the matter was, his teaching methods were appalling and I was not the only he spoke to like this
I was a perfect candidate for his class, owning 7 synths, somehow I became his worst student?
Program Leader Sound Production was informed of his behavior and did nothing either
Record (Cluster) teacher,he speaks to students like they have no ability to understand how to communicate, he was the reason I actually quit the course in 2nd term, I was asked back with conditions?
He once again is not interested in what you learn, he talks at you, not with you. At one stage he said to me "it's always questions with you", well since I am an eager student, I thought this was what we were supposed to do?
I asked numerous times how we were going to roster the main console, his reply, "it's not my job to manage you guys"
So come end of year assignment, I could not complete what was needed based on another favored student doing non class work on the console
I am indebted to your assistance, as I was when you would barely spend 10 mins a class with me, and you wondered why I would leave early?
I seriously hope you change your tact in the way you speak to people and also your teaching methods
Perform (Cluster) teacher, don't even know what we did in his classes, so random: I have put in a formal complaint against this teacher based on how subjects were delivered. To this day I still do not know what we were doing in class, also classes were changed mid year and I had asked Program Leader Sound Production to formally explain to me my work loads, this was never addressed
This teacher was of the one that would always quote "you snooze you lose", quite ironic based on he was always late for our classes, never communicated when he was away who was taking us, further more when asked a question he was reply "Use Dr Google"
I am questioning the delivery of his classes as I have handed in no assignments/ work yet I have managed to have a pass?
EDIT I will add one of the most important facets of his class, we were asked to do a live performance, never once was this actually set in cement to how we were doing this, insurance cost for equipment etc. All questions I had brought up in late 2nd term, I was keen and ready and was more than capable of doing a live performance.
I never continued class with him in 4th Term, it was a write off for me, he was just not interested in any work we were doing, always being left alone to do what? he was on more than 1 occasion having 2/ 1/2 lunch breaks, leaving us doing nothing
No one in my class did a live performance either, it explains a lot
I wasted a year of my time only to be dismissed by the faculty when asking for assistance
Program Leader Sound Production's last call to me for some reason, when I had asked 3 months earlier to address something, 30 minutes of excuses and apologies, asking me if I was going to continue with studies, when I said I was going elsewhere this is what he had said "Do you mind telling me where you are going?", I said I'd rather keep that private to which he replied "actually don't worry, I know everyone, it's a small world I will find out"
Far from professional and none of his business
I am still awaiting the outcome of my complaint, for me to have made one, it's simply not good enough on behalf of Polytechnic
