Reviews of professor Felix Amoruwa

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
DO NOT TAKE! Unless you have prior knowledge of java. Does not teach at all. Lectures are old zoom recordings. REQUIRES you to talk during OH, refused to talk through chat, would not answer any questions unless you talk. Will not except any late assignments. Once you have a grade there are no changes at all. If you get a zero it stays a zero.

Professor Amoruwa is nice but not very helpful. If you do not already know Java, then this class will not be easy at all. There are tons of assignments that are harshly graded, so you have to be willing to spend extra time on completing them. However, I feel like the final was pretty leniently graded.

dont take this teacher if you're thinking of learning java as a complete beginner. just read a textbook and then take the class later for an easy credit. this teacher doesn't care about teaching and combined his beginner class with his intermediate java class. lectures he leaves dont help and he will not help in office hours much. its appaling.

If you're new to CIS, Steer away from this class. He puts very minimal effort to actually teaching and mostly uses old lectures that are about 2 years old. Some of which don't cover what's on the assignment for the week. He's also very unclear with instructions and has docked points from students for something that wasn't stated in the rubrics.

crams in all the assignments in the last two weeks and literally goes from 1 to 100 in the first 3 assignments. he literally doesnt teach whatsoever, office hours hard to reach, takes years to grade assignments, has 2 hour lectures as his teaching modules, and thats from like 3 years ago, and slide presentations that dont teach you much. Good luck?

I took this professors intro to java coding. This teacher did not teach, he uploaded old videos and didn't answer student questions well. His assignment was code some tax something, girl I am not an accountant!! and he didn't teach the syntax. I had friends take the full class and they said the whole thing was incredibly difficult.

As others have mentioned, if you don't know Java, do NOT take it. I already had over a year of experience but I struggled with his extremely vague guidelines for labs. Be prepared to come to office hours whenever possible, but many times he doesn't even show. Strict grader for labs, but seemingly very lenient for midterm and final (which are hard).

Worst professor I've had. Posts old lectures, shows bad, unwilling attitude to help students. When I go the extra mile in my projects he refuses to help and says that wasn't part of the requirement. Unwilling to help students when they are going above and beyond, puts down their students. Says "I don't know where you read that in the requirements."
