Reviews of professor Philipp Roser

Rating: 2.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
He was a nice guy, but I would recommend not taking him. In class, his lectures were only in-class demos and worksheets, with the occasional problem-solving. His exams were very different than in-class work and online homework and he didn't care about if the average was a 70 on exams. Textbook access is required only for online homework.

Dr. Roser is nice and seems like a cool person, but his class was very poorly structured. Lectures were hard to follow and done entirely on the whiteboard (no slides) and didn't match homework or exams, homework problems had nothing to do with test content, and the test content was basically a surprise. Not great when your entire grade is exams.

He seems happy, and teaches well, but there's just something off about him that I can't put my finger on. He smiles, but there's no warmth there. Just a terrible emptiness like you'd find in the rusting hull of a ship forgotten at the bottom of a dead sea. Something happened to him to make him this way. I do not know what it was. No one does.
