Reviews of professor Zach Stallbohm

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Solid prof. Lectures are short & simple. Makes 4384 the easiest compared to the other profs. 2 exams (take home) 5 HWs (can work with partners). Very accessible outside of class and will help you with anything. Take him for sure.

he's a decent guy but needs to work on his public speaking skills. He knows his stuff but cannot teach properly. You will rely on YouTube videos.

His lectures usually don't use the entire time slot. Everything he says is very concise and he gives real world context for most things. His exams are almost the same as the homework and they are curved. The final project in the class was also fairly easy. He also stayed "after class" to give optional automata theory/machine learning lectures.

I took his class for both automata theory and Data Structures, he's freaking awesome, very lenient with his class and unlike most teachers in this stupid university will answer your questions no matter how many times you ask it, he wont get mad. He's super chill, wish i could take all my classes with him. The tests are pretty hard though.

One of the few professors that I can recommend to everyone. Lectures are to the point - no bloat. Answers questions well during and after class. Fair grading and plenty of chance to study - exams are easier than the homework. Ideal professor.
