PSTAT131 . Yu G H 23 Days Ago

Terrible professor. Lectures are disorganized and confusing, and he rarely answers questions clearly. He reads straight from the slides without explaining concepts. Grading is inconsistent, and there's no feedback on assignments. Office hours feel rushed and unhelpful. I learned more from YouTube than from class.

Don't know what's up with the negative reviews. I agree that lectures were focused on theoretical concepts it's math course so what do you expect? He knows the material inside out, with well-structured homeworks that actually help you understand the content. Final exam was fair, it's just that without a midterm we didn't know what was expected.

Lectures were pretty useless, though he does know his stuff. Final exam was poorly written, class average of 50% (though he did curve the final grades). Provided 4 bullet points for instructions on the final project.

I took Professor Peters's graduate course as an undergraduate and initially considered dropping it. However, Dr. Peters encouraged me to stick with it, and I'm glad I did. His lectures were very interesting: He has a deep understanding of the material and consistently took time to check in on my progress and explain concepts thoroughly.

Guo seems friendly and approachable at first, as well as knowledgeable in machine learning concepts, but his teaching style doesn't convey that much. Sections seemed practically useless, lectures focused too heavily on theory with little to no explanations, and course expectations, like for the final project, were outlined weakly and much too late.
