Reviews of professor Sean Deitz

Rating: 2.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
A+ in staring at students! He helps more during office hours, but if you don't know this stuff, it's gonna be really hard getting help. He uses big words when explaining things and that never helped. Take him only if you know what to do in the class beforehand, but just know he stares a lot which can be very annoying.

I would have given a zero but unfortunately, I can't. He is really bad at grading things on time. Today is the last of instructions and I just got my grade for Project 1 (We have a total 4 projects). Even in class he asks a question and tells us to talk to the other group, then he waits for half the lecture on one question, a waste of lecture time.

Answers everything on piazza. Only given 1 week to complete projects but there are usually extensions, plus they all have an autograder. Same with homework assignments. 3 quizzes due each week - half the points are extra credit and most answers are given in the videos. Make sure to study memory diagrams for the midterms and final.

I think the material of the class was great, and if everything was graded on time I would've give the class a 4. But nothing was graded in a timely matter. I know for a fact that the 2nd midterm and final were never fully graded because I saw the Gradescope grading from a friend that's a TA. I still don't know what I got on midterm 2 and the final.

He is a good professor for 480, but for 341 I wish I had hummel instead of him. His explanations for F# is just terrible and he himself doesn't know the language well.

Prof., Deitz has a real knowledge about the subject. His lectures were informative and if you visit his office hours, he'll really help you explain even the dumbest of doubts and help with your homework. Tests are difficult and makes you work for your grade but you learn a lot from his class. Grading for exams and projects not guaranteed

He always acts like students inconvenience him when they ask when their assignments will be graded, or when they ask questions in class that he feels like he already answered. I disagree that we need to be lenient because he's new. That doesn't excuse his bad attitude.
