Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
Dr. Guven is a wonderful professor. Focus is always on learning the material and demonstrating your understanding of it. Always welcome to try homework assignments again. Feedback is helpful and timely. Always happy to help.

The class itself is hard but Professor Guven is a great professor. He really wants you to learn the material and is willing to help, plus with assignments there were opportunities to fix some of the code and resubmit to get points back.

He is a great professor and a great person. He clearly teaches from his own body of knowledge and not a script, which means the lectures can get confusing, but he always has a good dialogue with the students and is good humored. His grading is fair and I feel as though I learned more in his class than I would expect with a typical teacher.

Dr. Guven's class is HARD. This class took me ~30hrs a week of solid work. His class is set up beautifully. He has clear, concise lectures, clear lecture notes, focused reading, great videos, and EXCELLENT assignments. If you are taking him, know that if you put in the effort, it is worth every penny.

Very easy to reach outside of class, responded to messages in ms teams within the hour every time. Provided great feedback and was willing to answer just about any questions you could think of during office hours (short of doing it for you).

Dr. Guven was the first professor I ever had who genuinely seemed to care specifically that the students learned and understood concepts. 
The course was not _easy_, but it was made much easier than it could have been by his feedback and responsiveness. 
I picked my last course in my program largely because I saw that he was teaching it.

Took Foundations of Algorithms. Great professor, good lectures. He genuinely seems to want to get to know his students. He responds to emails outside of class in a timely manner. The workload for the class was somewhere in the middle, if not a bit higher than others. Very math heavy stuff, but interesting and he helps you if you ask.
