Spring 2024 - My grade in this class does not align with my rating for this professor because I found myself self teaching a LOT in this class. The professor is very hard to understand and he speaks very quickly. I attended all of the lectures and discussions but honestly I don't know how helpful they are. I absolutely recommend using the textbook and finding youtube videos on topics you don't understand. These resources are the reason I was successful outside of class. The content is not that bad but I had to put in a lot of outside time for this class to make up for the professor being so unhelpful. Also he gave us no information on the format of the final before taking it and when someone asked for a practice test he simply said "no." All in all, it is definitely possible to do well in this class even with no prior coding experience like me but you definitely need to utilize resources outside of the professor.

Fall 2023 - TAKE THIS CLASS!! I loved this class and was super happily surprised by this teacher. The content is interesting and probably the most relevant thing I've learned at school. The professor does have an accent and it might take a little to get used to his voice, but he's very good at explaining if you give him a chance. His notes are entirely typed up in code, he basically completely teaches by example, and the lecture notes are super organized and helpful. You can basically take this class asynchronous because all his lectures are zoom recorded, projects are easy and short and half your grade. Midterms and finals he gives you practice for and I thought they were similar to the review and easy. I got a high A without much stress, would highly recomend this class and teacher
