William is a very hard professor and has no mercy for anyone. Very tough try to avoid at all cost.

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Overall, he's a good professor.  You do need prior knowledge of Excel.  He covers a lot of material in his once a week Webex which calls for him to go through examples quickly.  However, they are all recorded so you can back and move at your pace. Tries to keep the calls interesting by relating the material to real world.

He has a lot of knowledge of robotics and enjoys teaching the subject, which makes classes interesting. The lecture and lab don't really connect with each other. He does give quite a bit of work and doesn't give much wiggle room for mistakes.

He is a pretty reasonable guy but that doesn't mean you won't be working your behind off on a new deliverable or project every 3 days. I stayed up and worked on 4 or 5 of his assignments for at least 3-5 hours. I had 5 classes and he was 50% of all my work.

My only advice is that if you register for classes and he is the only option for a course, switch majors or transfer schools. I have had multiple mental breakdowns due to this class. Ridiculous amounts of work for no reason, and it pains him to give someone a 100 on any assignment. The bottom line is he knows his stuff but isn't a good instructor.

He knows how to cram as much information as possible into an hour long class. So it can be a little overwhelming. Keep an eye on the assignment calendar cause big assignments come up quick, and he doesn't really remind you about them. He gives a fair amount of work that you have to stay on top of. Good professor overall.
