Do you love coding? Take him if yes! If you love coding, you are guaranteeing an A in his class. Always ask questions if you don't understand. He is more than willing to help students. He wants you to success.

If you got a passion for coding, you can't miss him. He wants you to learn. Class isn't that difficult, but if you are having trouble to understand materials, he always helps students. You can always go visit him during office hours if class time is not enough. He's the BEST CST Professor at City Tech. TAKE HIM!

PSA: TAKE HIS CLASSES!!! YOU ARE DOING YOURSELF A FAVOR BY TAKING HIS CLASSES. He is a diamond at City tech and will prepare you for the real world. After learning hands on concepts and a better understanding of problem solving, I was actually able to apply my skills and think like a software engineer. You gotta work for it but its college so...

Professor Boulet is a fun Professor who takes the time out to help students understand the materials being discussed in class. His classes are interactive and he gives one on one feedback and help with your code. He is very patient and respectful and he also posts helpful videos that make doing projects and understanding them easier.

Comment:

he is a good professor with good intentions for his students. he shows everything step by step however, the only downside is that he is a little brief when explaining codes using lambda expressions/generics. otherwise he is a very composed and passionate teacher. he also sends the class coding videos which is great for reinforcing class material.

He's a kind person with a heartbreaking story but, not a very good professor. Prof Boulet has no syllabus for the course and he does not prepare for his lessons. His lectures are based on what he thinks you need to know. I attended every class and I hardly learned anything. I cant code and my programs for exams never work but he gave me 85+ grades.

Comment:

NO syllabus, his Homeworks/Tests are take home. But he gives you the homework 1-2 days before its due (you send the homework through different emails). For the final, he taught us the pie chart 2 weeks before and expect us to master it. The only easy part was MongoDB midterm. He is very disorganized, don't know how people like him as a professor.

Comment:

A truly awesome professor. I struggled quite a bit in his classes, but when I went to him for help, he'd explain why parts of my code were breaking. I lost my confidence in Java coding at least 6 times, but he brought it back up. This class uses SceneBuilder, which feels like an older version of Android Studio. Great class. PLEASE take him.

Comment:

He's an awesome professor. He takes the time to explain things in class if people don't understand. He assigns homework frequently but will send videos that walk you through the assignment and show you step by step what needs to be done and how it can be done. Then, he'll assign in-class work and make you show him that you can do it by yourself.

I love the fact he is of rare professors that try to teach the students in a way they will understand the class, he doesn't just lecture to talk of random nonsense, he really tries t explain what he's saying so every student understands, and i love the fact he makes students engage in classes, and i love how he explains what each line of code means

OKAY SO IF YOU REALLY WANT TO LEARN TAKE HIM. HE IS THE BEST* PROFESSOR TO LEARN FROM. HE IS VERY PATIENT WITH YOU AND LOVES TO HELP. YOU WILL ACTUALLY LEARN TO CODE AND HE DOES IT STEP BY STEP. I HOPE HE GETS A RAISE FOR BEING SO PATIENT. THATS HARD TO FIND IN NYC.

His lectures are great and hands on. He explains theory while he is actually doing the code with the students in class. This is the best way to lean. He goes over the code line by line making sure everyone gets it. This is one the best professor I ever had. Take him. You will be happy you did.

I really like professor Jean Boulet because he explains and goes step by step on explaining how to deal with Java Programming. The homework he gives are straight forward based on the coding we do in class. Professor Jean Boulet is a very good professor and I would definitely take another class with him. He actually teaches and goes through the code

Professor Boulet, is a great professor. He explains the topics very well. And you can ask as many questions as you want. He explains the topic until you really get it. He really wants students to learn. If you want to learn take him.

Jean knows Java very well, however he is an overrated professor. Does not teach well. He did not grade anything throughout our semester until the end, changed the final like five times within the last two weeks. Didn't have time to focus on any one topic for a period of time to prepare for it. Still passed with a B, but will never take him again.

Comment:

A mix mash of chaotic and hard working. While he is a very dedicated professor and a very good one at that ,his class was a bit unorganized. No real syllabus was handed out, grades were vague, and most of the homework/tests were take-home. However he is a very lenient professor, allowing us to constantly resubmit assignments.

Jean is one of the golden professors of the CST Major and I would love to take another class with him. There's homework here and there, but nothing major. His tests are 70% take home then the rest is in class (just modifying your code from the first part of the test). Take him, he's a really great professor.

Comment:

This man has the patience of a saint. He will repeat things over & over and personally assist students w/ a problem. Prof. Boulet really tries to get students to think and not just copy things down. For CST 2409 it helps to review what was done in class and ask questions on what you are not sure of and also to read/study on your own.

Comment:

This professor is one of the best professor in cst major. He is probably in his 30s but his examples in class are the best. I was actually able to learn a lot about coding from him than any other professor before. Take him if CST is your major, you wont regret it. His speech is clear, helps you if your stuck and gives extra credit a lot which helps
