Extremely knowledgeable. His assignments are very hard and we get to learn a lot from them.CS5100 2020-01-15 00:23:12 +0000 UTC
Very enthusiastic professor and my favorite at Northeastern so far. He's very knowledge about the material and creates great homework assignments that truly test your understanding of the subject. All questions are given a thoughtful response. Assignment deadlines are flexible for the students and professor.cs5335 2022-04-14 12:13:49 +0000 UTC
He ruined my life, don't take it.CS5100 2019-11-18 08:38:21 +0000 UTC
He's quite understanding and tries to do his best. However, he fails to meet his own deadlines which makes it difficult for the students to cope up with the assignments. Additionally, the lectures are quite vague and woefully insufficient and bring hardly any value to the course. Be prepared to follow the UCB course lectures and teach yourself.CS5100 2018-11-14 23:35:39 +0000 UTC
