Reviews of professor Matthew Leigh

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Lots of homework, sometimes the quizzes and tests don't have correct answers to choose from... Handwriting is terrible and unreadable. Requires a summary of notes on 5-7 ~15min lecture dense videos due every Sunday night.

Super easy professor. Quizzes are open note, he will extend a due date for you if you email him. Kind and supportive, class time is only for any questions you have. As a 4 unit class there is more homework, but it is doable within an hour. Labs are fun and will solidify your understanding. About an hour's worth of weekly video lectures.

You will need to take a lot of notes and study them a little bit before the midterm. Otherwise, there's not much to this class.

Not at all what others say about him. Material can be a little boring but is definitely not hard, as long as you keep up with lectures here and there. Weekly quizzes, exam are on lockdown browser, and a final term paper. Matt himself is super helpful and likes to hear feedback.

Amazing dude and, an even more helpful professor. Extremely course-heavy for a GE beware. If you want a class of substance please take him. A pleasure to be his student.

I find Professor Matthew Leigh lectures inspiring and helpful and I really liked his class a lot. I learned so much from him.

Good attitude that will spend time to explain theories

I really recommend not taking this class. I took as a GE and it became so much work that I had no time for my other classes. The workload is doable if you really put aside a lot of time but it is an insane amount of assignments per week. Quizzes and exams are lockdown browsers and webcam and are a large portion of your grade really don't recommend

Not a good professor. Lectures are pre-recorded and also very boring. The amount of assignments is crazy. He made us pay 60 dollars for something that was not very relevant and definitely not helpful at all for quizzes and exams. One of the worst professors I've ever had. He's an example that SJSU does not care about the professor's quality at all.

Very poorly organized/developed slides that barely teach you anything (I learned more from the labs), lecture time is mostly just for questions from the lecture vids. Quizzes/exams are online w/ lots of little hw assignments every week. Videos are usually 240p max and he's too indifferent to buy a tablet so his handwriting is illegible.
