Reviews of professor Josh Latka

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Josh did a good job with Computer programing, the TA that taught the tutorials made this class. She was amazing the level of detail she provided and the structure of her tutorials made learning the material easy even when it was difficult. Overall very test heavy wish assignment for were more.

Professor Latka is one of the few professors I've had so far that seems like he cares about student's time and learning. I was in surgery and missed one of the tests, and he was very helpful in directing to apply for missed assignment exemption with the faculty. 80% of the course are tests, but there are four of them, and there wasn't a final.

Was really happy in Josh's Vector Calculus class this summer! 

He was pretty clear with lectures and expectations, and if you always showed up, he always delivered. Great Math prof. 

Unfortunately, Josh's lecture tablet pen has a mind of its own, and would frequently attempt to strong-arm Josh's lecture... 

Never a problem for Josh!

Latka's is very monotone which does not go well with the material coding in c. His markers mark easy but I found some of his exams to be brutal. The practice questions did not prepare. His exams are also worth way to much at 90%. Considering how much room for error there is in coding, it is unrealistic to compile your code perfectly first try.

Assignments are easy to do well on if you attend tutorials, tests are fairly difficult

Student teacher I think but a really good one. Knows what he's talking about and teaches the basics of coding with as little filler as possible. I found it really helpful to follow along and type out with him during lecture. Either way, no major complaints!

He manages to make the easiest course I've taken average at a C as he explains how to solve questions incorrectly, he brings unclear and blurry figures during tests, and he has had an exam where the average was a fail. He's also very stubborn when it comes to grading, as I had to appeal my grade to get to an A- from a C+. Worse Prof I've had period
