Reviews of professor Riyad Husein

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Riyad was a lab instructor/ TA for my summer CIND719 course. He is absolutely great, explains concepts in a simple way and really tried to help ALL students to understand the material and get assignments done. Go to his open labs hours - will learn a lot.

I took CCPS 109 in the summer and he was a very fair prof. From the first day, we received our list of problems to solve for grades. As such everyone could work at whatever pace they felt comfortable with. We had all levels of programmers in the class (novice to expert) and he accommodated all of us. He responds in a reasonable time to emails.

Very knowledgeable surrounding the content, but also extremely helpful. He puts a lot of time after-hours to assist and ensure you understand the content.

Reads off lecture notes a lot. I get the sense that he's not prepared. Not very thorough compared to the original lecturer of this course. I found myself doing a lot of my learning through old recordings, googling, and youtube, since I didn't find the teacher super helpful. He's a nice guy and can be fun and laid back which is great, though.

Emailed him that I could not attend the first two lectures and I asked him what I missed and since hes leaching the material off another prof I asked him what will be different and he said nothing but he does everything different (i.e. two modules per lecture, midterm + exam, etc). Thick accent, hard to understand. Take with Professor Ilka instead!
