Reviews of professor Neal Arnold

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
This class was a lot harder than I thought it would be. He teaches very well, so that the exams seem easy if you do the practice and regular quizzes. He helped me a lot through email when I needed it.

Professor Arnold is very approachable and willing to help. This was an 8 week semester and there was a lot of homework to get done. I got behind early, but he was willing to help me to get caught up.

Great instructor. Thorough explanations of some complex topics, and easy to talk to outside class if you need help. Go to class, and he really breaks down the lesson into easy to understand parts. Lots of homework, but nothing too challenging. The transition to online class was smooth and did not make the class more difficult. Highly recommend.

I marked this as an online course, but it was actually a hybrid which made it much easier for me. I enjoyed his lectures. You have to study a bit if you aren't good with programming naturally. there is a lab portion that I didn't enjoy that much, but the rest was really good.

Professor Arnold keeps lectures interesting. He is knowledgeable, approachable, and passionate about computer science. He does a good job when it comes to explaining the concepts and making sure you understand them. Since this is an online course there is more communication back and forth, but he always answers your questions.

The class is really well organized.  He gives you many opportunities to learn without penalizing you during the process.  You have to work hard to get the grade, but his teaching and organization is good enough to where you're actually learning the stuff. He's also very approachable.

A very enjoyable online class experience. He did a good job having the material available and answering questions on office hours and email. Try not to fall behind or it will be very hard to pass because of the amount of material covered in this 8 week course.

Great lectures, cares about how youre doing, & presents material in an easier way to understand. If you pay attention in class and utilize his office hours in which he is super nice along with a little effort of your own, you are pretty much guaranteed an A.
