Reviews of professor Geri Lamble

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Prof Lamble is nice, but I can't recommend. The exams were full of errors that made it very difficult to understand what she wanted us to answer. The homework assignments were also unclear and riddled with mistakes. She would reply to forum questions slowly and then wouldn't answer our questions, or would just add more confusion.

When I took this course during the summer of 2021, this teacher never responded to my emails, had a horrible grading style and I didn't understand object oriented programming at all. I would never take this class again and I hope future students realize that some teachers are not meant to be teachers.

Not accessible out of class. When she did respond, it was not an answer to any of my questions. Unclear grading requirements. Unclear assignments.

Ms. Lamble is very unclear, inflexible and does not give clear examples. She includes info. in assignments & on exams that are not in her lectures, powerpoints, or the textbook. She doesn't allow the use of outside resources so you have to rely on her or the tutor. I wish I had listened to the reviews - this class lowered my 4.0gpa. Bad teacher.

Her video and note lectures are really hard to follow and it usually takes me a while to understand what she wants from me in the lab assignments. Her grading isn't too tough (pretty reasonable) and she seems nice and detailed, but teaching-wise was not good.

Avoid her and thank me later

Took her online over the summer. She is responsive and helpful however, I did come in with some Python knowledge and I can see it being harder for people with no computer science background. The tests are straightforward and multiple choice. There is homework every week and she does check to see if it meets her criteria and that your code can run.

I took CIS 117 over the summer; the textbook literally did all of the teaching. Some of her formatting rules are absurd (such as using named constants for every. single. value.), but it wasn't a terrible class. There's essentially no extra credit and be really careful on the exams. Not too difficult if you already know some python, but mid as hell.

Proffesor Lamble teaches a great online python course. This course covers a variety of begginer topics from hello world, all the way up to web scraping near the end of the year. I think that if you read the text-book, along with the online modules and lectures you should have a easy A
