Comment:
Baptiste is not an easy teacher. If you want to master the subject instead of just get an A he is the teacher for you. He has decades of real world job experience in this field so that comes through in how he teaches the subject. He will work with you as much as you want him too. He is very generous with his office hours and never rushes students.

Teacher is not helpful and dodgy when asked questions - couldn't understand lectures (mumbling). PROS - Easy A, CONS - Worst teacher I've ever had.

I'M SURE MR BAPTISTE HAS A LOT OF GREAT KNOWLEDGE AND EXPERIENCE, BUT I SIMPLY COULDN'T HEAR HIM DURING THE LECTURE. HIS VOICE WAS BARELY AUDIBLE, SO I DROPPED THE CLASS RIGHT AWAY...

Comment:
I am stunned that this man is allowed to continue teaching anything at this school. His lectures utterly useless. If you need to take a course at CCSF and Baptiste is teaching it, TAKE THAT COURSE AT A DIFFERENT SCHOOL. I cannot stress this enough - you will HATE whatever subject he is teaching and LEARN NOTHING, regardless of your interests.

He needs to be fired already! Makes you question US education system: a student who gets all F will be dropped out however a teacher who is much worse than a student who gets all F is still paid to teach. To make it worse, hes the only one who teach cs270, obviously if there's other teacher no one will ever register for his class.

This old man needs to retire. He can hardly use a mouse properly let alone see the projector he uses for his power point lessons. He is boring, hard to hear and his assistant does most of his leg work and he's unorganized. Mr Baptiste is the ONLY professor teaching this course and its a pre req. TAKE IT AT ONLINE OR AT SKYLINE!!!

Comment:
How does a computer science instructor not answer emails? Unclear, unprepared and uninformative. I sympathize with his physical impairments, but they are such that he may simply not be able to teach a class anymore. I wish he would realize that. Expected us to write programs but refused to ever show us how during this introductory course.

Comment:
worst teacher in the world. Gave me a C because I started to complain that he wasn't able to answer simple questions and thinks the students are his enemies. Went to the CS dept. and they said there's nothing they can do. Grades aren't based on anything because he doesn't even grade tests or homework.

I honestly feel sorry for him. I tried taking the 101 course (ended subing another for the requirement) and felt like I was teaching more than him.

Comment:
It's so true, it really is. Mr Baptiste is way past his prime and probably should go ahead and retire. He needs students to help him unlock the classroom, prepare the equipment, and even recite the lectures! Which are from a power point of the book. Last class he fell asleep a couple of times :).. but on the bright side it's a real easy A.

Comment:
He pulls a computer out of the closet in the back of the room and sits behind the monitor. After spending the first 30+ min of class looking for files, he finally finds the right one. He then reads the book?s presentation slides mumbling as slow as a snail. With some time, people start to leave because there is no point in staying.

Lame, waste of time and money, Super slow. His assistant knows more than he does. He needs to get retire. He is wasting his time nothing else. Not worth it. All he do is read slides. He doesnot have any personal knowledge. poorrrrrrr

Comment:
Don't waste you time and money with this "useless,lame,slomo,hard-to-undderstand:due to hard to hear," because he doesn't write anything on the board. He asks students to write his lectures on board and if they don't, then oh well, your just gonna have to wait and wait until somebody does. So don't waste your time, pick another teacher.

I really don't know why he's still teaching. He should just retire. You can't barely hear a word he says. He doesn't write anything on board. He's just very poor in teaching.

Nice guy but... his knowledge is a few decades out of date. Mumbles, does no actual teaching, simply loads PPT slides and just reads them. Slow to give back homework and tests. Tests don't test actual knowledge but arcane tidbits from the text (which fortunately is good). Take this class elsewhere if you can. Worse teacher in the department.

Comment:
One who sits in the classroom and reads the text book back to you or goes over slideshows done by other people doesn't deserve to be called a teacher. It's appalling to know he's been doing this for the past 10 years. Oh, the people who went through the same suffering as me.
