Reviews of professor Zann Anderson

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Doc. Anderson isn't the Professor UVU deserves, but he's the one they needed. As a new professor he still cares a lot about the students actually learning the material, and not so much about grades. He was very open to teaching suggestions and immediately implemented changes to have more interactive lectures. Would definitely take again.

I really liked Professor Anderson. He has a laid back attitude and really instills in his students that computer science isnt as intimidating as it seems. He is generous with his grading and consistently reminds his students throughout the semester that help is there if you need it. I hope to take another class from him later

He is a good lecturer for live-streamed class, and so I hope I can take him again in person after covid cause a lot of the info stuck. I slacked on the programming assignments and found them hard- if I started earlier I probably would have got full points on them. I didnt need or use textbook.

Dr. Anderson is one of my favorite CS professors. He starts class by playing on his guitar. This class is a heavy review of CS mathematics (because of a different professor's course layout), but Dr. Anderson incorporated git and other relevant topics. He made this 1-credit course manageable by eliminating some assignments and the midterm!

To be honest, everyone stopped coming to class soon after it started. Granted, this was his first time teaching, and it definitely shows. He has a hard time connecting to his students, and just needs more experience teaching. He is an excellent coder. I haven't spoken with him one-on-one, but I imagine he is much better at that. Give him a chance.

Zann is a professor of the highest order. This is my second class from him and both were fantastic. If you do your best you'll get an A, no qualms about it. Attend office hours and try to get as much help on the projects as you can. He also cares about you and is willing to help you out if needed.
