Reviews of professor Tien Nguyen

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
This class felt like the biggest waste of time ever. The class isn't hard but you won't learn anything. This class is completely disorganized, uninspiring, and tedious. HW's are hilariously vague and the professor never responds to clarification emails. If you take this class, be ready to supplement your learning with the book or YT videos.

Dr. Nguyen is probably one of the laziest professors I've ever had. Our grade consisted of only meaningless, repetitive homework assignments, and there are no quizzes or tests. His lectures consist of him reading Powerpoints verbatim, and then him asking, "Any questions?". I've never hated an easy class so much; the class is a joke.

Terrible course. All the homework is graded in the last week of the semester. The graders toke off too many points to the homework. It suddenly becomes very difficult to do well in this course. If you want to get A in this course, you need to get a score as high as 98.5. Really ridiculous!!!

This class had no exams. With that in mind, we did not even get a TA until the last week of class. The homeworks had extremely vague instructions, with no grading criteria. I had to e-mail the department head for him to finally get the TA situation solved. His lectures are dull, he is disorganized, and it seems that he only does the bare minimum.

The workload for the class is decent (5 homework assignments 1 project), but the grading instructions were not clear until the assignment was graded. The TA graded harshly, and the professor is disorganized. I think if the professor had a fixed time for his classes, the course could have been better. The assignments were pretty difficult though.
