Comment:

Santo is a rare combo of being very informative, very chill, and very reasonable with grades. I have taken a few of his classes and the workload is very balanced. He is very good at breaking down complex code and he is very interested in the subject matter of his lectures. Wish he taught everything.

DART498 InterNet Works, wed design class but be aware that grading is based on personal branding, not web coding. Lectures are about branding, no teaching on web coding techniques unless you specifically ask. Good class just not if you want to improve your web skills. Allows you to use a web template so you get easy marks, don't bother coding

The summer 6.5 week course it is twice the work for half the time. Just a heads up on that... Santo is a great teacher, open to all questions, hands on teaching approach and the reading material is very useful even though it's not mandatory reading, it helps you keep up with the lessons. I would take this teacher again. Hope you do too!

Santo always took the time to sit with me and explain step-by-step what I needed to know, and it was very appreciated. I accomplished WAY more in this intro-to-web-design class than I thought I could!

Very sweet and funny man. He knows his subject well and how to teach it. However, he had no availability to meet during the week if we needed help and it took time to answer to his messages. At least I'm pretty decent at web design now! :)

Great teacher; really loves the subject he teaches. Always explains the projects with examples, which many teachers don't seem to do anymore. Extremely approachable and understanding and generally lenient with deadlines. Pay attention in class and you're golden (projects use the same techniques learned in class-time).

Comment:

Very engaging and nice guy. However I did not learn much. He doesn't appreciate hard work in a project. He has an "opinion" style teaching of the theory which is also engaging but not objective and unless you contredict it may stay as truth in many students.

Best teacher I've had so far at ConU. His lectures are hilarious and informative and the studio portion of his class really pushes you to excel. Do anything you can to take his class. The only worry is you might fall in love with him during class!
