Reviews of professor Richard Anderson

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
Wow, I really loved taking Microecon with Prof. Anderson. The way he teaches is straightforward and (usually) clear, and he checks for understanding. He's a super cool guy, and as long as you put effort into understanding the materal, you'll be fine. Loved taking this class and going back for more with Anderson, for Macro. Seriously good teacher.

Lectures and grading are unclear, chapters from the book not done are referenced and lecture recordings suck since he doesn't speak into the mic. Grading is atrocious because he claims some things but deducts points for those exact things. Graders put in 0 effort in trying to understand your answer and are rude when you try to explain it to them.

Unclear grading criteria and HW instructions. Poor use of lecture time -- the class goes far too slow. Not a great class, but I learned a little bit. Def take with Shayan if you can.

So bad

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
He's definitely passionate about algorithms and nice enough to extend homework due dates and answer questions during lecture. That being said, his lectures were slow and unhelpful, notes unintelligible, homeworks were unclear, took quite a while, and graded harshly on arbitrary factors. I barely learned anything except through self study.

he's a nice approachable person but the grading in this class can be so arbitrary or excessively nitpicky sometimes...
