Reviews of professor Yoshinobu Odaka

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
Yoshis tests in lecture were always extremely hard and the study guide he provided barely matched up with the test questions. We would stay in lab for 20 minutes max. When distant learning started, he barely uploaded any videos and when he did they were about 5 minutes long. I would not suggest you take him if we have to stay off campus.

One of the best courses Ive taken! He wants students to succeed. Attendence is often rewarded with extra credit through participation/in class work. He is funny, knowledgeable and makes material easy to learn. Emphasizes concepts that are on exams. If you apply yourself then you will succeed in his class. I highly recommend taking Professor Odaka.

Prepare to study on your own, he lectures from slides that are also marked to study for tests. Hell give feedback and try to work with you on things.

Professor Odaka is a great teacher. He really cares for his students but you will have to put a lot of effort into this class. Took this as a crash course and had to do 3 chapters a week. Overall there are a lot of opportunities for extra credit to boost up the grade but do always consult the textbook in conjunction with the slides if you want an A
