Reviews of professor Mark Gonzales

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Being an introductory course to programming, Mark does a great job of teaching the material to a complete beginner without completely boring anyone with coding experience. He emphasizes the more important information, as opposed to completely memorizing the textbook. He leaves time at the end of every class period to help students.

Mark is awesome. He walks through stuff and usually explains stuff pretty efficiently. He has been awesome to ask questions to, and makes himself available outside of class to help students which I think is really amazing. If you actually code outside of class (like you're supposed to) you will have no problem with this class.

He just transfered from a different school. He just as bad as Jong the other CSCI teacher. His assignments make no sence and for some reason its very hard to has for help in this class without the instructor looking annoyed.

Mark is one of the most likeable instructors I've had at CNM. He is knowledgeable, helpful, fair, and cares about the students' success. His lectures are interesting and helpful. The only drawback is that his tests are harder than expected compared to their preceding assignments.

Mark is awesome! Really cares about his students, cares about being a high quality teacher and will go out of his way to help you out if you need it. I highly recommend doing the practice on codingbat that he suggests.
