Reviews of professor David Romano

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
I used the tag hilarious only because this class was hilarious. Lectures were not useful. Quizzes made no sense. Projects had unclear grading criteria. The best way to understand the topics is to simply watch videos on your own time. After class online discussions impact your grade. Class time is watched going over comments from these discussions.

Romano is the worst teacher I have EVER had!! Did not grade any of my assignments I had turned in and did not give reasons why. Also did not add my final to my final grade so any boost I would have received from scoring a 91 did not count towards my grade at all. Take his class if you want to bang your head against the wall as he does not help you

Nice guy, not so good of a professor. If there are other options, take someone else. The topics in this class are made very unclear and the lectures are always off topic. We spent a month doing one problem because he could never figure it out. The grading is also unclear. He is available outside class, but that is the only positive I can think of.

Very Poor grading criteria, very bad lectures, wastes a lot of time. Poor and unstructured teaching choices. Only gives verbal, vague feedback and never grades any of your assignments properly. Seems pretty lazy, good luck taking his class.

It was so difficult just showing up to class and staying in class because he is so impossibly monotone and explains things so poorly. Most days I showed up just to get attendance then, would review the class recording later and do it on my own. He spent too much time on stuff that did not matter.

Don't. If you can avoid it or pick someone else, please do. I beg you. Don't. The worst instructor or teacher I have ever had on any level, for any subject. There is no teaching style as he ignored us for weeks. I can't tell you anything about it. The content was arranged by someone else, but he took zero responsibility for teaching it.
