Comment:
His lectures were heavily based off slideshows. However he made his examples for each subject not only accessible in files but he also demonstrated each section of the chapter in class. Franklin shows that he cares for his students. He may get sidetracked once in a while but it makes for good stories also he still finishes the criteria by the end.

Paul is a great professor, shows all the steps clearly and class was pretty easy, just 3 main web assignments and a super easy exam (open book). Learned a lot from the class and was enjoyable. He talks a lot as well, but it's very charming and interesting!

Great professor. Not boring to listen to, often interjects with interesting stories. Good at explaining things. Assignments have clear objectives that if you meet he will have no problem giving full marks. Tests are open book and you can use code you have written previously or internet examples to help you.

Great prof. Very personable, and cares that students do well. He has great stories, and generally ties them in with the lecture. He mostly goes off powerpoints (As most profs do) but incorporates lots of practice segments. Amazing prof, if you're taking a class that he teaches, try to get him.

Excellent, compassionate, intelligent teacher. Very kind and always willing to go out of his way to help students -- he'll always make time if you need help or want to chat. Tells lots of interesting stories to keep the class engaged. Sometimes takes a little while to mark assignments, but it's worth it! 10/10!

Nice guy, but his lectures almost unbearable to sit through. If your good at teaching yourself, take his course because their not that difficult, but don't expect to learn anything in class. He sidetracks off onto his life stories about every 10 minutes.

Very personable, helpful and easy to ask questions to and get a useful answer. Marks clearly and everything on test/quizzes is covered fully in class or assignments before coming up. No surprises, but at same time expected to have properly studied. Presents concepts clearly and manages to hold attention even in fairly long classes.
