Reviews of professor Sidney Porter

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
I took him online and he didnt even bother to teach or come up with any of his own stuff. Powerpoints were from connect and all you had to do was read the book. I dropped after the first test.

Professor there to collect his paycheck, doesn't care too much about enriching lectures with examples just uses material you can find all the answers online as he is heavily reliant on textbook test banks. He is pretty clear about what he wants but can be a very harsh grader for no apparent reason. I ended up dropping his class..

Easy Class but horrible and I mean horrible exam designs. Does it through Canvas and multiple choice are straight forward, however, the show your work and essay questions are horribly designed and instructions are extremely not clear at all. Also shows grade before reviewing answers which is scary to see before its final. Canvas is also setup bad.

I took Intermediate 2A and 2B and Cost Accounting Online 2019-2021. Do All HW. Make appointments to met with Professor. He will explain and review difficult concepts. He is a FAIR Professor. No hand-outs given. Lengthy assignments. Don't weight to the last minute or you will not make-it. You must pull your own weight from beginning to the end.

Homework is straight forward and should be an easy 100% for these assignments, however, ABSOLUTELY TERRIBLE EXAM DESIGNS. Exams done through canvas and are not clear at all. Class average was always a C and less than half got above one. You're better off with a professor that uses a better exam layout cause his layout effects your grade completely.

I took Prof. Sidney in person for Business1A and Business1B. He was really nice. I honestly think he would OVER EXPLAIN meaning he would repeat the same concept like 10 times. Hes also very accessible outside of class and grades based on the process rather the only the answer. TAKE HIM!

 DO NOT TAKE HIM, You're basically teaching yourself. He has terrible due dates for assignments like 10am every Monday then like 15 assignments on Friday. Has insanely difficult tests and is an obnoxiously tough grader. It's like he does not want you to do well in this class. Don't know how he has good reviews. Top 3 worst Professors at El Camino
