Reviews of professor Richard Landry

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Mr. Landry is one of the best professors I've had. He obviously cares about his students and wants them to do well, and always has time to help you if you need it. He responds to emails very well and likes to give in depth answers. The tests are incredibly hard, though. You need to make sure you understand the material to do well, or risk failing.

Landry is a cool, funny guy but that only gets you so far as a professor. He doesn't explain things very well. He expects you to code like a professional and will pick apart your code for every little detail. You will not make a 100 on a project. He doesn't grade things fast either. Be prepared to be completely unaware of your grade all semester

I didn't understand a single thing he taught, and not because he's verbally hard to understand. The projects were never mentioned until two days before it was due!

Professor Landry was personally not a bad professor, his flaws were that he didnt give any sort of preparation for the test besides saying you should re read everything he said up to that point, and he did not grade basically any material until the last second. Already completed the class and have no clue what Ill be getting.

I do advise that people stay away from taking this professor if you are just starting to learning about programming languages and coding because he does expect you to be any expert programmer when it comes time to taking tests. Also, his teaching method is not at all engaging which may leave you to care less about the class as the year goes on.

Homework does not line up with what he tests on. Tests ask similar questions but problems are with much more difficult equations and circuit setups not seen on the homework or in his lectures... teaches very broad, with simple examples ,in lecture. "Hand Waves" over the examples and skips to answer, "you should already know how to do this..."

Good guy. Good teacher. It's obvious he cares that you succeed, which I can't say for all my professors. If you go to him with questions, he takes the time to help you out.

Do not take a class with this professor. His test are challenging and tough. One of the worst teachers I've ever had. Strongly suggest that you avoid him as your professor.

As a 30 year old veteran coming back to school after 10 years, Landry has been one of the best and most relatable instructors I have had. In both classes I have taken with him, he has been extremely helpful and come in on weekends to help in the computer lab. It is highly recommended to ask questions when you have them, otherwise youll be lost.
