Reviews of professor Corinne Riddell

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 1.0/5
I have taken many classes at Berkeley and none of them changed the lecture time and the class location they way they did for the first part. Grade scope system used in this class is very poor with no rubric. First part of the class started with coding and first exam was on codes and not probability. Avoid if you have a choice.

To preface, she's the prof for only 2 of the 6 summer session D weeks (class is taught by multiple profs) but she is such a gem of an instructor! Provides clear and engaging lectures, very thorough and attentive to class needs, very approachable and incredibly sweet. I had 0 coding experience prior and she makes learning R fun and intuitive.

I was really looking forward to this class, but disappointed by the professor. Unresponsive, doesn't respond to emails, very brash sometimes. Seems to care very little for students. Very unfortunate, as this is an important introductory class and interesting material.

Coding part of the course is not too bad but basic concepts are explained in an unclear manner. Midterm is nothing related to Probability. If you are looking for a course to learn basic Rstudio this might be a right choice it but not statistics or probability.
