Reviews of professor Matthew Hill

Rating: 2.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Professor Hill seems very kind, but the content can be very complex and he goes into a lot of detail in his lectures. He also talks super slow so I would watch the lectures on a faster speed. If you pay attention and take notes this class is an easy A.

The professor himself is very kind and generous. He is also super accessible outside of class, however, the TA is what you need to watch out for. I got Handschy and she is the absolute devil--beware.

Dr. Hill is a great teacher. He doesn't have a textbook, so the material is only lecture notes and a few articles from outside sources he provides. The exams are open book and online.

This class is a good one - simple but still intriguing. I watch the lectures on 2x speed and rarely have to pause, often don't read the book. It's asynchronous so I can't speak much for Hill as a person, but thru lectures he comes off as friendly and passionate. A relaxed class that's still interesting, exactly what I needed this semester.

I didn't really had the chance to get to know him because of the recorded lectures, but his TA Justin Soares is awesome. I don't feel like I was motivated to learn in this class and I wish the projects had the same value as the exams for the final grade.
