Reviews of professor Victoria Cooper

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
If I didn't need to take the class when I did I would have dropped it. The professor was very unclear while lecturing and often confused students by contradicting herself when the students asked questions. Leading up to tests many of the students had to work together and look for outside help/tutoring to even begin to understand what was going on.

If you show up, ask questions, and attend labs, there is really no reason for you to have below a B.  Yes sometimes her code that she uses in class does not exactly apply to labs/projects, but if you ask for help, she is more than willing to answer, even if she may come off a bit rude... shocker, most computer science people are like that lol.

we ended up going online bcz of COVID, and even before she was tough. scatterbrained and new to teaching she gives little feedback and you rely on TA's (shoutout kelley). Labs and projects are difficult and deadlines are short. Its like learning another language and when we went online she upped the difficulty even more. 0/10 would not take again

She is an awful teacher who won't help you and assigns an absurd amount of work that is extremely hard and gives you little time to complete it. Do not take her class she doesn't even know what she is teaching. How she completed her phd is a real question to me. How any college would hire her to teach is the even bigger question. DO NOT TAKE HER!

I think that she could be a good professor but she needs to learn a lot. Four tests and four projects with labs is too much, especially when she doesn't allow late work. This switch to online really showed how poorly she adapts. She added EC and extensions and that was it. I didn't expect an easy class but I certainly didn't expect this either.

This class is by far difficult b/c it's online since COVID-19 and she has not made the class any bit easier. Also it's 5 days a week. Don't recommend. If you try in the class and ask questions, you'll be ok, but I have been so fed up with doing a lab online and her not understanding it's hard keeping up with her boring long lectures.

She isnt much of a teacher. She mainly just makes you watch lectures and loads you with tons of work and very short deadlines she isnt very good at explaining things and tends to just tell you what to write in your code instead of explaining what you did wrong.

Do not take any of this professors courses if you are someone who wants to learn. This professor will make you feel stupid rather than helping/ guiding you to a solution with useful learning techniques.
