Reviews of professor Nic Herndon

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
It's very hard to concentrate in his class. The lecture slides he provides is enough to get the general knowledge. Lectures don't go into enough detail and if he spoke with more enthusiasm, it'd be easier to learn/care.

Professor Herndon knows the material covered in this course like the back of his hand. He has an answer for any question you could throw at him, and generally explains things pretty clearly and he clearly cares about the class and his students. The only thing thats keeping him from being a great prof is that his classes are so unimaginably boring.

He is really nice and trying his best to help students. If you catch him up during his Office Hours, you can see that I am correct. He is not very good at teaching but he did put effort in it.

Professor Herndon is a solid choice for 230: he has a very in-depth understanding of the content. I just wish his intonation could reflect his passion for the subject. Otherwise a great course with a good deal of relevant work. Make sure to space it out or the projects will overwhelm you.
