Student reviews

Cares about his students, is more than willing to schedule office hours to help. As this is an elective course he gave us an option to request he has a lecture on a specific topic. Gives hints about the quizzes. Assignments have rubrics that outline what makes up the grade & what they are worth. HWs are fun & apply what you learn in a fun way.CY5010 2024-04-25 18:40:08 +0000 UTC
