Reviews of professor Rodger Friedman

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
While he is an interesting man, this professor isn't very good at teaching the language. Taking this class, I didn't feel that this professor was instrumental to my learning of this language whatsoever. I found myself relying on mainly the textbook and a third-party app to teach myself the language. He grades very easily, but you won't learn it.

Professor Friedman is, though sometimes engaging, boring and easily gets sidetracked. We have moved through the textbook (which, by the way, is almost 200 dollars) super slow and none of the students in my class feel like we learn a lot in class. He assigns a lot of homework that I struggle with because of my lack of teaching. Try to avoid him.

Professor Friedman tries to make class engaging with childish games that lack construction and depth. He teaches very little but tests on a lot of material. It's a self-taught class which can be very difficult on one's schedule. Homework heavy, which is har d because we get homework on material we haven't learned yet. I would steer clear of him.

Friedman is a great man that's just not a good professor. Seems like his classes are not structured most of the time. However, the textbook and supersite make up for the lack of productivity, as the homework is simple. This is a super easy class to pass ... if you're willing to put in a little more work that you would get from another professor.
