Pay attention in class, and get used to spelling errors. This class is very independent and self taught, you'll go a long way if you seek help during floor time. The actual online resources can be difficult to navigate, and I always find myself lost looking for new material on the google classroom.

Dagg himself seems somewhat lofty and apathetic. His overall attitude seems to be very negative, as at the beginning of the year he seemed to expect most of us to fail and/or drop out. There are numerous spelling mistakes and grammatical errors in the exams, which could be fixed by a simple spellcheck from other teachers. However, Dagg is obviously very knowledgeable about chemistry, and knows the subject well. I believe with a little bit of tweaking to the delivery of his lessons and coursework, Dagg could be one of the best teachers at St Josephs
