Do what your gut tells you to...

Firstly, you (the state, scholarship, parents, whoever) paid for the course. Get your money's worth.

If you can't, make a formal complaint. Go through the channels and spread word of mouth that this is a bad class to take. The formal stuff will make sure there is a record of things, the word-of-mouth will make sure others don't waste their cash and time in his class. Eventually the institution will notice, cancel his classes, and he will have to make changes or suffer the consequences.

I know, severe, but not petty at all. I bet you are not the only one who feels this way.

Don't even get me started on this unethical behaviour at discussing non-class things like other students grades (whether he mentions the name or not, it's not apropos.)

And as for him losing his job, it's not your responsibility to worry about it. It's his. He provides a service you paid for, and he's not delivering what he should. What would you do if you bought a car that the engine kept failing on you?

Ok, I'm going to step off my soapbox. I had my fair amount of profs. like this is college, and early on I decided not to suffer them. You shouldn't either.

No, he hasn't done a good job.
