Alex is a teacher that is hard, but you thank him for it later. He assigned a lot of work and he is not easy. He does cover a lot of material and he loves to teach. I only had to read the book once because he explains everything in the lectures. The homework does take the maximum amount of time assigned and it gets easier when you have a partner or a group of them. Just watch out for his BO cause he stinks and that\'s why most people don\'t ask him for help during lab. | |

Dekhtyar definitely assigns a load of work, but I feel like most programming classes assign about the same (as observed of my friends who had other teachers). If you pay attention to his lectures in class and read the note handouts, you don\'t even have to read the book. His midterms were easy enough, I took one thinking it was a quiz and aced it. His PPM programs can kick your butt if you don\'t really understand them, but Dekhtyar is a nice patient guy if you can be nice and patient with him. If anything proves he\'s a good teacher it\'s how easy the final was (all CPE101 students took the same one regardless of their prof), and I\'m not a gifted programmer. | |

Pretty good professor, prepared us well for the final exam and got through most all of the course material. Even helped me resolve a few "mistakes" I made in the quarter that would have doomed me to failing the class otherwise. I don't know if I would take Dekhtyar again as his humor can be dry and he can come off as a bit rash sometimes in dealing with students, but he was very understanding with me. He can also tend to rant about the results of midterms. It probably helped that I had some programming background going into this course as well. Dekhtyar is not a bad teacher if you're completely new to programming, but there are probably better teachers out there. | |
