Reviews of professor Shen-Shyang Ho

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
He is a very easy professor for IOOP - if you have previous coding knowledge. However, he is always willing to go over any questions and has many examples for each topic he covers. Labs can be submitted multiple times to get full credit and quizzes are open-note. I think hes a nice professor, and Id take him again!

Dr. Ho is amazing. He is super smart, and really makes every class enjoyable. Make sure you get on his good side, and everything will be fine. He gives an ok amount of work, the usual for a CS class. He will answer any questions you have in and out of class, so don't be afraid to ask; there're no dumb questions. Be ready for class participation.

Dr. Ho understands Java very well and teaches it quite well. However, his lab assignments and quizzes dont prepare you for anything on the midterm or final. Just for no reason they are absurdly difficult, I was lucky enough to barely pass. Also started the semester with a slide of how many people dropped the class in earlier years. Not a good prof

Dr. Ho definitely knows his material. He addresses the comments made on this site and gives his reasons. He knows that this class is difficult and he understands that. You will have a quiz every week based on past weeks material, and make sure to do well on labs and quizzes as they will make up for the difficult tests. His tests are absurd.
