Reviews of professor Nidhi Tilak

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Professor Tilak is the best programming professor in Cerritos College. She takes the time to explain any concept a student might have. The weekly quizzes are instrumental in prepping the students for the midterm and final exam. I wish I could take all the required CIS classes with her.

The professor was good at explainging lectures. I wasn't good at all in the beginning, but after a couple of labs and some reading I got a hang of it. If you need help don't be scared to raise your hand and ask. She will be more than happy to guide you.

Amazing Prof! Likes to encourage students to think outside the box . There's weekly quiz but should be easy if you come to class and do the assignments(she even drops one of your worst quiz grades). If you need help, she's always willing to do so :)

Class may be a bit difficult if you are completely new to programming; but if you have some programming experience, you'll do OK. Prof is easily accessible thru email, Canvas, Pronto & responds quickly. 14 weekly assignments (w/ 6-7 programming exercises each), weekly quizzes, midterm, final, & extra credit. I only wish she taught 280X as well!

Easy class if you put in the work. Great teacher who actually wants you to understand the concepts presented in the class. Lab assignments and homework is based on the lectures. Doing assignments on zybooks is 10% of the grade. This class is a great introduction to python and java.

One of the best CS Prof I have had at Cerritos college. She explains each coding concept in detail. I was bad at coding, but after taking her, i feel like flying in the beginner's coding world. Her lectures and notes made learning quick and easy. A smart , intelligent and very helpful teacher . An amazing professor. Take her, won't regret.

Professor Tilak is top notch. Her lectures are very informative and she has assignments that are right on track with what she lectures about. Much easier to absorb when you are actually applying the concepts. She really takes the time as well to make sure that you understand clearly what is going on. Would take her again for other requirements.

This class was great! The professor is very approachable, takes her time to explain any questions you may have. 10% online book participation, 10% daily quizzes, 30% hw/labs, 50% midterm and final. Class is not just based on exams which is great because there is room for me to learn and improve. Overall, a very caring and knowledgeable professor.

Despite her accent which can make it hard to understand the lecture, she is very nice and will help you as long as you show up to the lecture and read the book so you don't fall behind, you will be fine. If you do not understand a concept she is always willing to help you understand.
