Reviews of professor Jeramiah Hocutt

Rating: 3.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
He is good at explaining the material, however, his tests are somewhat difficult as they are made up of only 8-10 questions, most of which aren't step-by-step questions so you'll have to know all topics by heart in order to do good. Also, you'll have to stay on top of the material as he offers weekly quizzes worth up to 15% of your grade.

Professor Hocutt is a great honors professor, but this is an incredibly difficult class. He teaches a lot of information per class and doesn't post notes, so any missed classes can cause you to fall behind quickly. He will tear apart your work on tests and in office hours, but it's very evident that he wants all of his students to succeed.

Not very accessible outside class, usually takes days to reply to an email. Even then he only gives a vague response that forces you to send him another email and wait several more days. The example problems he goes over in class are nothing like what's on the homework and tests. He'll talk about something with one sentence then put it on the test.

He was a good professor in lecture but was very disrespectful and derogatory when students tried to access him via email. He has made quite a few students cry this semester for no good reason...

The homework is far harder than any example he works in class and you often spend more time trying to learn how to do homework on your own. Its easier to watch YouTube videos than attend his class as its easier to learn the content and be able to do the homework.

He is an awful professor. Not only was he never there during his office hours, but his tutoring sessions were hosted by college students who knew less than I do. He never responds to emails, and he refused to give me any credit on my homework when I was sick with COVID-19. Overall, I would avoid this professor at all costs; I would swing at him.

Very interesting teacher. I was not a fan of the projects but they were doable and he graded easy on them. Class is all about matrices so get familiar with them. Great guy!

I can't speak to a full semester of Hocutt, but for the bit he was there before he left, i thought his class was interesting, but it goes very quickly, and it's very lecture heavy

Hocutt is a pretty solid/average professor. He's decent at explaining new material but could be 10x more effective than how he currently teaches. It is 75% theorems and 25% actual examples, so it almost feels like I'm in English based on how many paragraphs I write per note session. Tests are easy if you have a decent understanding of material
