Reviews of professor Barrett Koster

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
Great professor, the lectures will 100% help you learn basic python. I would recommend taking him later in the day, his voice is very gentle and makes me sleepy, great professor regardless. I stopped attending after a bit & did great, but attending lectures will help create a strong foundation for coding. One assignment and one lab a week.

Professor Koster may have meh lectures, but he has amazing office hours and offers amazing guidance. The work is not too hard as the homework guides you to learning. The midterm is a little tough due to the free response question other wise its an awesome class.

This class contains the work of a 4-credit course. The weekly homework assignments are very lengthy and go beyond the material taught. Be prepared to spend hours on them. The professor is nice and friendly but he just reads straight off PowerPoint slides for every lecture and expects you to retain the knowledge. Would not recommend.

Professor Koster is so sweet! He really cares about making sure his students understand the material. He does give a fair bit of homework. Sometimes its easy, sometimes it will take you a week to complete the assignment. Beware homework 04, Paint. It's a 10/10 in difficulty when everything else is 5/10. Professor Koster is amazing!
