Reviews of professor Brandon Carpenter

Rating: 2.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
Professor or Mr. Carpenter is a really cool dude but terrible teacher. He has good intentions but can't teach the material. Maybe it's just the course material pressuring him to focus on multiple topics at once trying to teach, or the professor is still trying to learning the material which is both worrying and ok. Basically class is too stressful.

He doesnt respect his students.

He is not really good when it comes to explaining the course's material. He turns problems that should be simple to teach into long lecture heavy topics where he only covers one little problem in 20 minutes. This class will honestly make you focus all of your study time into trying to understand what the hell is being taught since he can't explain.

Ive been lost in this class since the second week. He doesnt explain all the material and just expects everyone to know what he is saying but this is a beginners class. Assignments go from easy to understand to the projects which deal with things not taught in this course. If he makes a mistake he doesnt fix his error and just leave it.

The professor has a nice personality but his teaching methods need work. A lot of work. He is a new student-professor and relies on the work that was needed for this class. Carpenter tries his best to work with the students but doesn't have reasonable office hours or even an office in general. He needs to learn to explain things to beginners better

This class is supposed to be the introduction into computer science and programming yet feels like the third or fourth class you take when going into this career field. I suggest to whoever wants to take this class find outside help and take basic computer science courses elsewhere. I learned about one third of the material thanks to the structure.
