Reviews of professor Faete Filho

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
Expects extremely detailed work for very simple problems (such as showing work for a 3-4-5 triangle), will not award partial credit and will not explain examples clearly in class. Very hard to understand and only answers questions with "yes" "no" and "I don't know." May show up to office hours, may not, it's a gamble. Be prepared to teach yourself

Unorganized lecture materials. Dr. Filho apparently doesn't review the material he gives students. Course material contains multiple mistakes, ironic since he is a very tough grader. He also doesn't provide timely feedback, sometimes taking weeks to grade tests, which he won't even discuss with students anyway. Needlessly causes stress. Hated it.

The class itself is not difficult, however, you will be teaching yourself the material. Dr. JT is a nice guy, but not a great professor. There is a quiz at the beginning of every class that he grades harshly. He lectures very quietly and the presentations are dull. Try to choose a different professor.

3 grades for the course a project worth 20%, attendance worth 5%, and the final exam worth 75%. The most stressful course I have ever had. There were homework's given that were not graded so you never know if you got anything right or wrong. The final exam is really long and your barely able to complete in the time given. Take anyone else PLEASE!!!

Be prepared to teach yourself using the textbook. PowerPoints and homework solutions are often incorrect and are filled with mistakes while being unorganized. Wont give feedback on homeworks and does not explain problems when student ask for help. 3 grades determined the grade in the end.

Dr. JT is not a bad option just not the best. His accent is heavy and low so I recommend paying attention in class. Circuits lab was decent although he doesn't go over what you're doing so you have to be on top of it. At least he isn't harsh on labs. I will say he is very helpful in office hours so do take advantage of that.

He gives no feedback on anything he grades. He gave a project that was divided into 8 week parts but only gave us 4 weeks to do it all and write a paper on the project while also having to spend hours studying for the final that he does not give enough time to finish.

Good teacher, nice guy. Get there early so you can claim your seat in the front because there is no way your going to hear him if your more than 3 rows back. This is a tough class and he could work on his consistency with h.w. and tests as far as sticking to the syllabus or same format throughout. He would not be my first choice, but he is nice guy
