Reviews of professor Sam Goerke

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
Easily the best instructor I've ever had, and the best you will ever have. The lectures are fun, the content is fun, the class is amazing. I've never unironically enjoyed a class before. Like, not in a "I like school" type of way, but his class is one of the highlights of my week. 10/10, I wish he taught more sections because I'd take them.

He taught and communicated well. He has great demos that are easy to follow along with. He was organized/methodical and really knows his stuff. Also, he was always available via email. The class was harder than most sois classes, but you learn a lot.

He was a great professor! One of SOIS's best. Class was on the harder side, but he does a great job at breaking things down into easier concepts. He really cares about teaching.

THE BEST PROF AT UWM! The passion, jokes, and energy of his lecture are contagious. In labs you crack logins, encrypt stuff ... it gives you a taste of what doing what he teaches feels in real life. He gives his perspective as a pen tester, which is awesome! I have been dying for other prof to tell us what is actually relevant int the industry.

This class was very difficult, and the professor knew it and made it less stressful by being very personable and available... Would recommend Sam to anyone.

Sam is a solid dude! Like seriously, very humorous & good lecturer that cares about his students and doesn't want to torture anyone with a lot of work. I took his class online and he made it very clear how he structured the class to not drown yourself in pointless assignments. He makes everything relevant. Class is a bit hard though so be prepared.

The energy he brings to his class is absolutely contagious. He makes you feel so engaged in what we are learning and his methods are easy to understand as well as fun to learn. HIGHLY RECOMMEND IN ANY COURSE!!

10/10 would recommend. I took him last summer and it was officially the first IT class I ever took. The class was not easy for me, but his clear explanations of the material and him always being there for me whenever I reached out for help, helped me pass with flying colors! Take this prof, he is funny, available, great at explaining concepts.

His online class was a horrible. If  you need extra help do not take this class.
