Reviews of professor Jennifer Hoy

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
The class feels very unprofessional. I believe she is knowledgeable in her subject, but her lectures are very chaotic, and teaching the information is not her strong suit. It is so hard to follow the lectures and the slides do not have any information on them so if you can not follow her there is no way to find the information.

Horrible lecturer but relatively easy class. Professor herself is very kind and willing to help you outside of class, however do not plan on actually understanding any of the materials as her lecture style is almost too distracting. Easy grader, offers generous amount of extra credit, pretty easy A if you put a little bit of effort in.

Professor Hoy is the best professor I've had at this school and this was also my favorite class I've ever taken. The material can be difficult but if you apply yourself and try hard you will do good. She is very helpful and kind, she really wants you to learn and if she sees that you have even if the answer isn't 100% correct you can get partial.

good stuff for introductory classical / deep learning theory. Gets mathy when it needs but you wont be taking a derivative. Dr. Hoy provides great guidance through scientific literature.

One of the best UNR professors ever! Super caring and kind. GO TO CLASS. if you go to class and pay attention you can succeed guarenteed. her tests are open note including the study guides, so if you complete them you have everything you need to get As on those. the final is NOT open note, so make sure you know the concepts on the study guides!
