Aderson is very fast at teaching and it sometimes makes it harder for students to catch him up. He gives so many materials to go through and without these you wont be able to grade A+. Tough but great to learn from.
I can say that Aderson is the best professor in Centennial in terms of engaging with his students and staying very close to them. He explains with enthusiasm. He uses many ways to keep the class interactive. All his classes are recorded which is beneficial with such a heavy course. If not with Aderson, I don't think I would have succeeded.
Aderson is the BEST !!!
One of the best professors ever.
Genuine modern professor. Super connected. Fair grader. Loves to teach. One of the best.
Definitely the best professor I had in the program. He always tries his best for his students. He replies to students inside and outside of class. He uses many tools to make a class efficient. His positive energy really makes class comfortable and enjoyable. Even though assignments are not easy, tests are pretty easy.
This is one of the best Centennial college professors. He will teach you, if you follow his assignments and requirements, you will really know the subject.
He is the best Teacher on Centennial. He loves to teach, and is really commited whit his students. He totally know the content he teach. I think he performed a variety of didactic practices, so that he encompass almost all the styles of learning and students can understand the content, one way or another. Extremelly recomended, for over any other.
One of the best professor i have encountered. I miss a lot of lectures but never missed a single lecture of Aderson. The lectures were interesting throughout the course even the boring chapters were fun with him.
He is like a magician professor of this course. Believe me if you wanna be learning this course, he is best option for you.
Aderson is the BEST. He is so inspiring, always keep the good vibes and he knows how to teach !!!! His classes are not just only about passing the subject, we learnt things from his classes.
Very very good. You will learn the course without any doubt. I would take his class again and again!
One of if not the best programming professor at Centennial!
Professor Oliveira's teaching way is the best! If you really want to learn something without stress, you definitely need to take his courses. You can feel that he's really full of passion on teaching. He demonstrates the new contents step by step. Also, he will provide every solution of hands-on for students. HE IS THE BEST!!!
Professor Oliveira is one of the best professor ever. He genuinely cares about his students and tries his best to make sure that they understand everything. He tries to help them in anyway needed and his lectures are available online so we don't have to worry if we skip or miss something during the class. P.S - He's hillarious.
He is best professor i ever have in my Centennial college time. Able to learn many things from this professor.I wish he will take our future courses also.
The best professor ever.
i don't know why he got 4.9 out of 5 . if u can give 6 out of 5 i would have gave it . And i mean it. One of the best professors of my life . we have learned many things . Genuine grading. I took comp229. I wish i were his student in comp123 class. He is also on udemy . Check him out . Support his hard work as much as possible.
One of the best professors I've ever seen
He is one of the best teacher in my life. He is so helpful, even outside of the class. Responses very quickly no matter it is day or mid night. If you want to learn he can be the best choice. He is updated with course curriculum and technology. I like him so much
Excellent Prof. Intend to take any further classes with him as he was a great teacher
Best professor, good teaching style.
He is an awesome Professor.
I say that he's a pretty good professor, as he often provides helps for the students regardless of where they are standing. Furthermore, Mr. Aderson goes over the assignments after it was due so that way if anyone made any mistakes, they can refer to it as to try to fix the errors.
Professor Oliveria is not a great teacher, he is very vague about what he wants you to do on assignments and tests yet he expects you to know exactly what he wants and if you do not he will severely penalize your mark. If you ask him for help he will hardly ever respond or try to avoid it. and his grasp on English is quite weak.
Amazing professor. He is the best of all. You will learn alot.
The most phenomenal Professor I have ever met, very hardworking, enthusiastic, passionate, helpful and most kind hearted person. His classes are most enjoyable and he goes out of his way to help students that are facing difficulties understand the concept. He is modern and very knowledgeable. He is truly an inspiration to many.
Really great teacher!
Very high energy, invested in his students success. More than willing to take the time to explain a concept until it is understood
Before posting, I decided to read the previous comments, and, seriously, these creatures (I'm not even calling them "students") who want to blame the professor for their poor performance make me laugh (I'm just trying to be kind; actually, they make me feel other things)! One of them just cannot be talking about the same person! Just ignore them.
Aderson is not only one of the best professors I ever had (and this is my 4th degree, meaning I had a lot), but also one of the best human beings I ever met which is something truly rare to find! It's even hard to talk about his qualifications. Read all the serious reviews, and still it won't be enough to give you a glimpse of how amazing he is!
Love this guy
Very energetic teacher. Awesome lecture, Nice responses to students' questions. I'd take his class again if sits are available.
Best programming 2 class
Fantastic teacher. Really cares about his students learning the materials, and goes the extra mile to make that process as smooth as possible for everyone.
Professor Anderson more than an instructor to us His explanation great He gave us tips from his experience for real life He is doing everything to make us understand and to make the course easier He is the best������
Aderson is a very passionate and responsible instructor. He is also very patient with students. I will take more courses with him if I get the chance.
Aderson is a great guy and a good instructor. Grading isn't easy, but it's 100% fair so do your due diligence and ask for help if you need it. As long as you go to class, do the practice, and learn from your assignments then tests will go fine and you'll do great. Also we had access to bonus marks which is cool!
He was an incredible professor, all time trying to make the class easy he gave a lo material to follow and exercises to do before the assignment to understand how to do it, his class was incredible amazing with all the necessary information and quality. I enjoyed all-time his class was amazing to have him as a professor.
A modern teacher with modern skill. He uses the advantage of the internet to enhance our learning. For example, online games and links to YouTube video outside of class. I wish the course is harder (like super hard), so I can find his weaknesses in teaching.
One of the very FEW amazing teachers that you're ever going to have. I've taken so many classes at different colleges/universities so I know a true gem when I see one. He goes far beyond what is required of him, and truly wants to see his students succeed. Lectures are super organize and well prep. I wish he would teach more classes. Lucky to have.
I give him A+. He is the most efficient professor. You wont leave the class empty-handed. Super cool and very patient. Teach the class professionally. handle the class effectively.
One of the few teachers who really knows how to teach
Professor Aderson is one of the best teacher at Centennial, very supportive, flexible and really cares for his students. if you have the chance to choose, Do not hesitate. you will not be deceived :D
Pleasure to be in his class. I learn lots of things. Nice professor with lot of knowledge.
Aderson is an attentive professor. He cares about his students, tries to make his class interactive, and takes his students' opinions into consideration.
Absolutely a gem. You actually look forward to his lectures because how detailed he is when providing examples. Uploads his videos in segments so we can revise his lectures as well. His ability to teach is phenomenal and he really cares about his students.
Anderson is one of the greatest professors, full of knowledge, he has his own modern way of teaching, so organized, He makes the lecture interesting and amazing.
Aderson is a cool dude, he gives you lots of examples. If you do the examples, you will do well in his class. Plus he also gives bonuses. So it's almost impossible to fail his class.
People found the midterm hard (I sort of did too, I got an A- I think). IMO, this is a good thing because coding won't always be easy and it really challenges you to perform under time constraints. Lectures are relevant to the tests, easy bonus marks every week by listening to bonus marks. Just be careful to choose good group members for projects.
He's caring a lot. He uploads on youtube so we could watch it again (it was before COVID and on campus). If you have enthusiasm for SW development and take his course, you must pass this course with a high grade; A or A+. Very organized course and everything is provided. he cares students a lot even when after the end of his course.
Very good professor, always willing to help. I would really have him as professor again if I get the chance. Every time I needed him for any problems regarding the course content, he was always pretty accessible to help take the doubts away. Plus, he is a very nice guy with great sense of humour.
all the tests have very confusing questions and contain the material out of what he says is going to be in the tests. You can not get deep understanding from classes to do the tests or even assignments. Also zero flexibility with due date.
He is very friendly and respectful professor, and he is very active in class and outside. I like to teaching method.
Aderson makes lectures entertaining. I feel it's imperative to be present at lectures, that may be a just me thing but if you want to pass, be present. I feel that if you sit his lecture Aderson offers very clear instruction and you will surely get a good grade.
Awesome professor.
His teachings are great. He explains very well and teaches the lesson one by one. It helps me to learn the course from a beginner.
Learned a lot with this professor, he is truly awesome !
Lots of great qualities to find in him. I really liked that he gives free bonus marks, and a lot of them as well. My only complaint is that he uses Zoom... Overall, while he is difficult, you will learn a lot in his class
I love the way he teaches and the content.
Good professor, excellent class, he really loves to teach and makes a great effort in class to engage students. I will definitely take another class with him if I have the chance.
An excellent professor, very caring. His lectures are detailed and understandable. Provides a lot of additional information. Attendance is checked in every class, but not mandatory. Deadlines could be discussed.
Aderson has a very outgoing persona which makes you feel connected during lectures. I believe you are best to sit your lectures and if you do you will surely get a great grade. Aderson offers clear expectations throughout the term. I will be looking for courses he is instructing in the future but they seem to fill up fast!
Aderson is an exceptional teacher. I recommend everybody to take his class.
Awesome professor! It was a pleasure having Aderson as a teacher.
Taking him for my second semester was a great decision. Ready to cheer up his students and look after them until the end. Has some great advice and an informative podcast. Does test reviews before the final test which is very similar to the actual one. Provides a lot of material if students have difficulty understanding his lectures. Go for him!!!
Has clarity in communicating knowledge. Provides lots of resource materials. Very helpful.
Great professor! I would to have a new class with him, he is very pragmatic with the teaching and encourages students to try, try again, make questions, and learn. I would like to see more teachers that are not scary, but approachable.
Aderson is a really great professor. He is very clear, understanding and makes the subject fun to follow. I hope I will have the chance to attend another of his classes.
I could not ask for a better professor to teach me the fundamentals of programming, C# specifically. Aderson constantly keeps his class engaged and makes coding fun and interesting. No question is left unanswered before leaving his class and he ensures we have all the tools to succeed not only in class but further in our careers as well!
Extremely helpful in and out of class. Funny and charismatic. I enjoyed all the lectures taken. It had quite a bit of content, but I was able to blast through it with ease because of the clear explanations from the prof! He also had clear grading criteria and explained everything throughout.
By far the best teacher. He is one of those whose classes you dont want to miss. He is just amazing. The way he teaches and the way he managed the online sessions is just outstanding. Had a great experience.
I love taking his classes. One of the best professors in the college.
Overall good experience
He is what every teachers should aspire to be. Lectures are organized and well delivered. You will almost never be confused of his expectations if you just attend his lectures, or even re-watch his recordings. Definitely take his class if you have the opportunity to do so.
Hes the best! I would undoubtedly go for Prof Aderson over anyone else.
Amazing Professor
Amazing teacher
One of the best Professors to take classes with, he takes the time to explain doubts, presents real-life examples, very dynamic class, is so exciting to take a class with a person that knows about the topic, someone with a lot of experience and that loves teaching.
The best professor for C# in Centennial college. He cares for his students and sees if everyone is learning. He was always available and respectful to everyone. A good teacher and a good human.
all good
> posting Dad memes before classes. > made sure that his students were learning. > professor-student interactions are present. > Make sure that your questions are answered. > simple to complex exercises are given. > you will learn 100% as long as you're attentive. hoping he will be in my programming 2.
Aderson is one of the best teachers I have ever had. At thirty-five years old, and with a few college programs beforehand, I have never had such a precise and knowledgeable teacher. He makes a difficult course (C#) fun and interactive, and is always there to answer any questions we may have. Highly recommended!
Aderson is a good professor, and you can get high grade easily.
explain everything clearly good experience
He makes everything clear and goes extra miles to help students. Unfortunately, I couldn't figure out the difference of his shirts to get a reference letter...
Aderson is great teacher. His conduct his classes with good humor and he is very patient with our questions. The demos are clear and he got a anonymous panel for questions, which is great for students that are shy or insecure.
He teaches enthusiastically to understand. He inspires me a lot. I like him.
Aderson was engaging, very helpful and I loved his class so much I even woke up at 8:30am on a Sunday to attend his lectures in person even though they were recorded. I genuinely enjoyed his class and found learning fun when he taught it.
I have never seen any professor, who can teach programming in such an easy way. I am sure you will love the coding after meeting this rofessor.
Mr. Aderson is a very good professor. His priority is to help students understand and learn. He is prompt however, clear and helpful.... it'd be good to have more instructors like him in the centennial school system!
Professor Oliveira is perfect, his teaching is interesting. When I get bad grades in this course, it's my fault. The professor is good, I like him.
I am a very slow learner, but he helps us to understand well. You don't have to worry about asking questions. He always encourages us to ask question.
If you really wants to learn C# this is the right teacher. You need to put effort because you need to review the material before class.
His classes were never boring and he made learning fun and easy! Really loved attending his classes and would love to have him as a teacher again! Thank you so much professor Aderson!
Professor Aderson is amazing. He cares about his students and makes sure we understand the material. He's also very good at explaining the material! Would take every single course he teaches! Attendance is taken but not mandatory (for grades). Recommended to attend to understand the material and ask questions.
Overall a great teacher. He has a Spanish accent, but he does not speak fast so it shouldn't effect your learning. He provides examples during class that reflect the assignments you'll be receiving. He's also really helpful during office hours where you can connect 1-on-1 via Microsoft Teams.
Anderson was very easy going, answered my questions and made things easy. Many of the other students also thought that way.
He is the best professor I have ever seen! He is amazing! Professional and funny!
This professor is great. He delivered the class in a clear and concise manner. from detailed to detailed
Very nice and chill professor, explains well, and his lectures are not boring.
He is amazing teacher. Not only for just programming, but inspiring in my daily life too. I liked how he is opened to all comments and he uses padlet to get the anonymous question from shy students. helped me a lot!!!
Awesome professor; Full of energy; Kind and Supportive; & I will get the next course with him once again!
Aderson is a very considerate professor, he would explain things to you in detail without it feeling too overwhelming. He would demonstrate an exercise in the second half of the class to reinforce your understanding of the topic. Overall, great professor!
I had a wonderful class experience with Aderson!!! Because of him, I am obsessed with C# and I am eager to learn more about it. Definitely will take his class the next semester.
Mr. Aderson is a great teacher and personality, he'll always there to help and give a hand if something is gone wrong or misunderstanding happened. A couple things matter, is attendance, listening, asking questions and practicing after lesson.
he is a perfect prof in all aspects
An amazing teacher has the ability to make everyone comfortable to learn and ask questions, he shows a great deal of dedication, is highly knowledgeable and assists his students in further learning the material. The energy that Aderson brings to his Sunday class is unbeatable!
Professor Aderson is an exceptional instructor. He has an effective teaching strategy, using a combination of in-class demonstrations and independent labs/assignments. Tests are based on the material taught, no surprises, and reasonable questions for an introduction to programming course. Practice is key for learning in this course!
Great professor!!
He is very nice. I gain a lot of knowledge in his class. All of my friends who are studying with him would like to study next term with him including me.
Wonderful wonderful wonderful professor! Strongly recommend to take his courses.
Amazing teacher. Very patient and fare and very engaging.
10/10 would take again
The best professor in Centennial College!
The best instructor that you can get in Centennial College
Best teacher ever!
He is a great professor!
Amazing prof
Aderson is one of the best professors I've had, would definitely take any course that he teaches.
Amazing professor, wish he would teach everything for the entire course.
this professor is so amazing and very good.
He is the best professor in centennial! you won't regret meeting him!
Had professor for two classes, he spends allot of time explaining the exercises/labs/assignments, an gives you the files so you can review.
I was fortunate enough to be taught by Professor Oliveira for Comp 100 & Comp 123. He makes programming fun and teaches how to code, line by line. By attending his lectures, I learned so much more than what is in the course content. He gives many extra tips and goes above and beyond to help students learn. 100% recommend him as a professor :-)
One of the best professors I have ever had. He makes the learning journey very pleasant and genuinely cares about his students doing well in his class. All of his tests and assignments are based on class material and if you attend his lectures and pay attention you will definitely succeed.
He was amazing! The best professor I had this semester. While attendance wasn't mandatory, he did take attendance. Highly recommend!
Probably the best professor we've had so far, he brings the passion of coding/teaching and you can really feel it. Class is always enjoyable, he's is exceptionally good at teaching.
Very happy with Aderson as my professor, nothing negative to say.
Professor Aderson was amazing with his lessons. I came from a no tech background and he made learning how to code fun and easy. If you want to Learn and Get a Good Grade then take Adersons Class!!
Very happy with having Aderson as my professor, nothing negative to say. Very engaging lectures and he ensures everyone understands the content.
He is an amazing professor, just email him he is always happy to help, he demonstrates so much during class time and that helped me alot with the course.
The professor has strong background and very patient to teach the entry level.
I like his teaching style though, he tries to explain to make everyone understand. He takes time to explain the course very well.
He is very good in teaching. His teaching style is amazing with prior planning. He gives satisfying answer for the question during the lecture. It is very good experience to learn this course with this professor.
Professor Oliveira is a great teacher. I came into Programming I with little knowledge of C# and am leaving with a good foundation! Fingers crossed I'll have him for Programming II next year. Thanks again for everything you do for your students, Aderson!
Super professional and fun course experience!
Makes sure you understand concept by continually repeating them and explaining them every time they come up through the semester, does a lot of in class demonstrations to help with up coming homework assignments, always takes up the homework in the next class to ensure everyone understands everything. Always extremely informative.
The professor is brilliant, course content is explained very well and the professors classes are very engaging. The prof answers all questions and tries to be as helpful as possible. Definitely the best Centennial professor I've had the pleasure of interacting with. 10/10 would recommend.
Explained all the knowledge in an easy-understanding way, really helpful when you have questions.
Aderson was an absolute pleasure of learning from. His lectures are super bright and informative. It was great to have him for the semester and hopefully I take one of his classes again in the future.
Provided examples for how the content would be used in workplace and game coding examples of what we were learning
Aderson is an excellent teacher. You can tell that he is passionate about coding and teaching others to code. His lectures were super informative, well presented and interesting/engaging. He was available to help outside of class, very approachable and patient with students who had questions.100% recommend any course he teaches!
His teaching style is perfect for the type of material he was teaching in his class. He covered all of the material he said he would and provided real world examples. Offers help when ever you need it and also offers a way to ask questions during lectures anonymously which can be helpful for many students. 100/10 Amazing prof
If you miss anything in his lectures, and let any details slip, they will come back to bite. But besides that, he tells you everything you need to know, and beyond that too. Recordings make it easy to look back on all lectures!
His initial presentation was not particularly friendly, and made me concerned that this would be a difficult course. He did however warm up and become vastly more helpful than anticipated. He is also quite knowledgeable in his field and could typically explain the solution to problems fairly well.
Professor Aderson always comes to class with an energetic attitude, starting off every class with a new funny joke. Feedback is always well thought-out and helpful. If you every need a 1 on 1 with the professor Aderson's he is more than happy to demonstrate.
One of my favourite teachers. Classes are interactive (not just lectured), he's always available after class for anyone who needs help and you can tell he loves teaching.
Took programming 1 with Centennial College. Centennial college does not have many great professors however Aderson was one of the great ones. His courses were engaging, interesting and his newsletters are informative and interesting. He is a fair grader and I recommend him to everyone.
He cares about the students he teaches and tries to give more marks if possible.
He tries to make the class fun.
Very clear at teaching, ready to answer any question you ask. very much enjoyed this class.
A very Good professor. He takes time to see that students understand. Thank you sir Oliveira
Aderson is an amazing professor. He really cares about the quality of education he brings and gives students a ton of different material to help with learning. Very accessible outside of class. Although attendance is not mandatory, he gives a great lectures that makes you want to come to every class. Would take him again if I could.
Aderson is easily the best prof at Centennial. If you can rearrange your schedule to get one of his classes, do it - he is knowledgeable, approachable and seems to really want his students to succeed. His lectures are very helpful in understanding the content each week, which is reinforced by the labs. Can't say enough good stuff about this guy!
Aderson's class was my favorite of the semester. He has a clear passion for teaching and I'd highly recommend taking one of his courses if you have the chance. 11/10
Awesome Professor! Easily the best I had in my last 2 semesters at Centennial. Highly recommend
Best prof I've ever had in my entire life! I wish I could have him for all of my classes. Passionate about what he teaches and very knowledgeable on everything related.
Best professor in all of Centennial college!
Hands down the best professor I have ever had, always makes coding enjoyable
He takes time to explain everthing. he is amazing.
Completely amazing, the best prof I have had for sure, no contest. Dynamic, engaging, confident, excellent demos, bonus tasks, code along sessions, explains things very well. Most of my classes have been a firehose of information, but Aderson covers what he covers well, even if that means missing something, which I would prefer.
I took him last semester and he was amazing. I can guarantee that you will love every minute with him. Don't hesitate, and make sure you get a spot in his classes before they fill up.
Honestly one of the best teachers at Centennial. He explains all topics very well and is always open to answering questions and taking time with them. Assignments have a structure that is easy to follow as well. If he is available don't miss out.
Not so many good profs in Centennial, and he is among one of the best profs you can get, so take his class as soon as you see the option.
Definitely one of the best professors in Centennial. Don't miss out if you have the option to have him.
Consistently stopped during demos, has students finish his examples - not a problem for a student with prior knowledge of it, distracting for actually learning. Wouldn't provide lab hours. Only one demonstration during classes. Adept in areas used in his "full time job" - brief overviews on the material in the curriculum but not used in his job.
He is the best professor. So good at demonstation and explaining complicated things and break them down step by step. He also gives a very good feedback which is very helpful. I feel so good at programming because of him.
Very clear and comprehensive lectures, which makes this complex subject easier to understand. Thumbs up!
The best Prof ever! Materials are well organized and clear. You also get extra material which is very beneficial, especially if you had bad luck and got COMP100 with Narendra(so did I). I was very disappointed with C# in my 1st semester, but, thanks to Aderson, I love it now! In one semester with this Prof, I learned both COMP100 and COMP123!
"I would like to say that this professor is excellent and has greatly helped me develop a deeper appreciation for learning C#."
Great professor, always looking forward to programming lectures taught by the prof!
Very effective teacher, id say the best Ive had yet. Lessons are clear and easy to understand.
This professor made class engaging and made everything clear with how to do things and fi you don't understand we will go over until you do. I have nothing but great things to say about this professor the only downside is i wish the professor would go over a little of the assignments not give the answers but go over it.
Simply great professor with excellent knowledge have good teaching experience.
Aderson Oliveira is one of the (if not the best) professors that centennial college has to offer. This was the second time I had him for one of my courses. He teaches the material in an easy to understand way and is always offering his help and skills toward any questions we may have. If you have the chance to choose him as a professor DO IT.
Knowledgeable professor. He knows what he is teaching to his students. Gained valuable experience and skills from this course and professor.
My experience with Professor Aderson in the Programming 2 course has been nothing short of exceptional. Thank you, Professor Aderson, for your unwavering commitment to student growth and success. Your influence has made a lasting impression on my learning journey, and I am truly grateful for the privilege of being your student.
Professor Oliveira teaches with passion, makes sure everyone is on board and goes out of his way to make students comfortable to ask questions. Fair grader. In short, he is the best. If you get the opportunity to be in his class, don't hesitate.
One of the best professors
This Professor is great, if you see his name, please choose him!
If you have a chance to get into his class, you better do so! I was slacking because of my full-time job, but I never missed his class, he's so professional and down-to-earth at the same time, knows his stuff, he never thinks your questions are stupid. You will for sure thank yourself for selecting his class. The best course, best lecturer ever!
Great professor! Loves to teach. Always wants to help his students. Awesome energy!! Wohooo! Best professor overall. Any confusing topic became immediately non-confusing :)! He always finds the best way to teach a subject, in a manner that is interesting and effective.
Aderson is one of the best professor in Centennail College. He always took the time to ensure that every student understood the material.
Prof.Aderson is one of the best teachers for COMP123, If you have the option to take, take him as he will help you understand the topic easily.
Amazing teaching skills.
An amazing professor! He always makes his lectures interesting and easy understandable for students. Highly recommended!
Awesome teacher. Very understanding.
Professor's teaching strategies are exceptional.
Great prof! Would love to have him again
Aderson is one of the best profs I've had. He explains stuff really well and takes extra time to explain whatever you need. I would highly recommend taking his class
Prof Aderson Oliveira has been amazing. He takes time to explain everything he discusses and does his best to ensure all questions are answered and explained properly. It truly feels like his goal is to ensure his students understand the subject matter.
Aderson is GOATED. Understanding, and really good at communicating information. Really nice, and willing to help.
Coding is difficult especially if you are new to it and have never done it before. Professor Aderson delivers excellent lectures and will go through plenty of examples by writing code that is easy to understand and follow. His guidance and teaching style makes him an incredible Professor and you will be blessed to have him as your teacher.
Aderson does a good job explaining the course material. His assignments do a good job of testing your understanding. Very easy to understand if you already know the concepts, a decent challenge if you don't.
Knows his stuff and teaches with no ego. He really knows how to teach effectively. What a pleasure to be taught by him. Very inviting and open learning environment.
Professor Aderson is very friendly and patient. His lectures are good starts for students learning programming. He encourages students to try and ask questions. The interactive and friendly environment is crucial for learning!
Aderson is an amazing professor, the best I had so far in my course. If you can, choose him as your professor.
Sir Aderson is very Professional and respectful in his approach. He considers the need the students & does his absolute best to accommodate the needs of students. He is always willing to extend a helping hand outside of class timings. In summary, he shows empathy, mastery on his subject, and is very detail oriented in delivering his lectures.
For an Introduction to Programming course, he is really nice and helpful. The course contents are very basic. You will do good if you folllow along with the class. You don't need any textbook or so. You may get back to him for any problem you face regarding the course. He replies emails and messages and ready to help you succeed in the course.
inspirational, knowledgeable
Good prof thats available outside of class hours. Willing to help by staying behind and is very helpful and quick to communicate. I like that you can ask him anonymous questions via padlet during class which gives you the freedom to ask without being judged. He wants the best from his students and deserves the best too.
You get the most from the lessons if you participate. One of my favorite teachers!!!! A+ for me
Stands out from the rest of the professors in the program. Really cares that his students are learning and is invested in your understanding of progamming concepts. Responsive, accessible and engaged. Great teacher!

Aderson is a really great teacher, he has really engaging lectures and does not make you feel dumb about anything. He is super understanding of life issues as well. Highly recommend!
He explained things in a linear manner & taught at a rate perfect for beginners. He handled questions from students really well -- if the answer was only to the one student's benefit, he deferred the student to the end of class and didn't waste everyone's time on it. His assignments were challenging enough to be fun. Loved this class!
