Reviews of professor Howard Sims

Rating: 2.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
He is awfully unorganized. Both the syllabus and Canvas still showed dates from previous semesters, which meant you had to rely on the due dates he gave in class. The due dates were always different. It never felt like he was fully prepared to give the class, he looked up articles on the spot, and just read us the information for his "lectures."

This is my second week with him and I know he will be a bad professor. HE GIVES SO MUCH HW! 90 questions a week on a stupid test for HW. And that's not even exams there's 3 exams which I wonder if it'll be even more questions than that. The textbook is confusing asf. More for HW than the 90 questions. 3 more assignments on top of that. DONT TAKE!

This guy is horrible! The whole class is lost and nobody knows whats due for homework. But we do know one thing, its a lot of f*cking homework. His tests are so hard. So is his homework. Its so long. Nobody in the class knows the material so we may all just fail IDEK anymore. Also get ready for notifications on Friday night midnight.

He is a really decent PERSON, but this class was terrible. I think students should be able to test out of having to take this course because its all common sense. The ridiculously hard part is the IMMENSE amount of homework that is completely tedious and unnecessary (AND THE BOOK IS SO CONFUSING). GET READY TO SPEND HOURS IN TEARS

He is really amazing, you should definetly take him he cares about students and also he makes the class fun and interesting. He takes care of each and everyone's grade and he goes over the assignment before he signed the assignment.

Attendance was mandatory but this professor didn't care if you showed up to class. The curriculum and the material was so easy but he made it so difficult. HE CAN"T TEACH!!!. He will literally crack jokes in the middle of class and talks about his personal life.

Told us to get the textbook and after spending $70 he decided that we wouldnt be using it. Easy teacher but bad at communicating especially through zoom. He takes days to answer emails and by the time he answers, its too late.

Nice guy with what seems to be lots of experience in the field, but I think I could have taught this course better than he did. Never tells when he is going to upload an assignment and then doesn't inform us on when its due, barely knows how to use computers and overall a very slow paced class. He is a very friendly guy, but needs to retire.
