Comment:

He's a great person, not a "good" professor. Yes, you can show up and not pass. But, if you're trying to actually learn you won't. He messes up often, he does the homework as lectures for you and makes his tests open book. He's a good dude and cares about all of his students but trying in his class is such a no go. People always skip the class lol

Prof Pinto is a really nice man and great professor. His assignments are easy and he goes over them with you in class. Exams are just like assignments and makes people laugh

I learned so much from Professor Pinto and he's a funny professor with a cute personality! Even though his midterm and final are 35% each, he justifies your grade by curving it heavily. He's very cool and you'll learn a lot about mobile application development from his class! He shows everything step by step and very patient with students. Thanks!

He cares about his students. He gives homework but does them as lectures & you can submit them whenever you want. He makes the class before a test optional. He lets you use the homework or google during tests, so they're open book. He'll sit down with you to fix an error if you have one. He's one of the best CST professors tbh.

He's the best. I'm taking him again next year, and I honestly wish he taught every CST course. He's very helpful and nice. He spends a lot of time in class helping everyone who is behind, very caring. Def Rec him.

Prof. Pinto is a great guy. He's hilarious with his corny jokes. He usually spends a few minutes searching up help for the classwork, but overall, he knows his material well. He gives homework every class, so pay attention to your email/blackboard. He explains each example thoroughly. Other than that, I would definitely recommend him.

Thank you Pinto! Hes the best. He is a very nice/helpful professor. I cant find any reason to fail his class. I got a A. I really thought I deserved lower than that. Anyways, I would like to take his class again.

Comment:

To be honest, This professor is easy going and he won't be hard on you if you're late. However there are some cons to this professor. He doesn't explain certain things in detail so if you don't have patience learning something solo then you will have a hard time. An easy pass, But a poor learning experience. Avoid if possible.

He is funny and showed us a Victoria Secret website although he e-mails hw at the most craziest times..how the hell he e-mails assignments Sunday night and I have his class the next day..a lot of people dont do hw that late

This guy is lost. He doesn't know the subject matter at all, will spend most of the classes time researching(googling) something any IT person should know. Easy A though. If you want an easy A take him otherwise take somebody that knows this material.

Comment:

Do not bother with this prof.. hes one of the most useless prof ive gotten since ive been to this college. Sure, you can get a easy grade and he curves the grades for you but in terms of learning u will learn nothing from him. Most of the time u self-study. The previous posts for this prof? id say they are either lying or dont know his true self

You want to learn, take someone else, coz he goes over the chapters about 1 day 1 chapter. You will lost sometimes. But for grading, he's a very generous guy, he's cool and funny, he defines funniest into another level, like Prof Ebbers...
