Reviews of professor Marco Paolieri

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Marco Paolieri is one of the BEST professors at USC. He always responds on Piazza, holds review sessions, and creates assignments and exams that directly apply to the material. I wish every CS course could be structured like this. Overall, just a super kind guy who actually cares about his students:)

Absolute GOAT!!! He is clearly passionate and knowledgeable about what he teaches. He is very available to students, whether it's about exams, homework projects, or just lecture materials. DO NOT hesitate to take 356 with him if your schedule allows.

Top prof here at USC, so kind and helpful! Will even look at non-school related problems and try to help out, explaining every step along the way! Such a great professor =D

Great professor. Clearly passionate about materials and a pretty good lecturer. Labs are sometimes time-consuming but interesting. Exams are fair with plenty of resources like past exams to study from.

I don't know where to start. Marco is an incredible person and an incredible professor. He will always stay after lectures and OH to help a student no matter how 'stupid' the question. His lectures are very very clear and enjoyable. The class moves fast though so stay up to date. Projects are challenging. 104 is a 5 difficulty then this is 3.75/4.
