Mr. Anderson is a great teacher. He's a funny and nice guy and his lectures are interesting. Lab time is not required (unlike most other CIS teachers) and he is very flexible with homework due dates. Only 2 exams (1 midterm and 1 final).

Great teacher. Very helpful when you need some help.

He is a really awsome teacher and explains everything really well.

Hey Was A Great Teacher If you Have Problems Understanding Computers and Programs I would Reccommend Taking Him He is Very Helpful

Fairly easy class, but it helps to have some experience in computers before comming into the class. Assignments are easy, and he's always in the computer lab if you needed help.

Wow! He's Super good... funny too

He's a great teacher! and funny 2!

good teacher. not a huge homework load. class could have been alot more boring...at least the guy has a sense of humor. thumb up and high fives all around.

Mr. Anderson is a nice instructor and he will help you but you must make it a point to let him know that you have no idea what you're doing. He also tells you exactly what will be on the midterm and final exam, so write it down!There are no surprises.

good class, good personality. Tests from book. Bases most HW credit on Basic. I'd take him again.

Man, This is my favorite teacher. I took him in the summer for bus18 and he was super koo, and Im now taking him for CIS50 and his class is koo and fun.Take him.

Kevin Anderson is a great teacher, you will learn the material well, and his homework is sparse and easy to understand. I had both business and CIS with him and he is laid back and fun in both classes, HIGHLY recommend this teacher.

I love Mr. Anderson. He is such a cool guy. He is down to earth and he is good at related examples to class lectures. I got a "A" in his class.

Mr. Anderson makes this class fun. He uses real world situation to help you understand the topics that you discus

He is great. Not much homeworks, gives quizzes rarely--if he does, it's only 5-10 points and he usually allowed us to use the book! How cool is that. Just do all the lab assignments, bring your book EVERY meeting, and pay attention.

Very nice and interesting. He makes the dead topic of computer programming tolerable through his funny stories. He understands the topic is boring and doesn't stress over students on the internet or sleeping. DONT BE LATE he'll give you a hard time about it. He also gives you work study classes to do the homework assignments.

So easy! He won't fail anyone as long as he sees you put in effort, so just take the midterm, final, and the few homework assignments he gives out. He does ramble, but all notes are available on powerpoint at a given site and he is very funny so you won't get bored. He teaches from experience in the field too, so I recommend him highly!

Mr Anderson's class has a cool envirnoment and he s not bad on the eyes. Text book is a must but projects were easy...everyone should know how to use Word and Powerpoint

Mr. Anderson was cool as heck, vary laid back professor but knows “his stuff”, he let me take two CIS classes back to back. The course work wasn’t that difficult; he accepts late work and will throw in an in-class assignment here and there just to make sure your coming. His lectures are brief with a little side track here and there. He’s willing to

This teacher is AWESOME. Take pofessor Anderson he will take his time and answer any questions you have. He does one on ones and he really wants you to succeed!. One of the Best Teachers at Solano. He knows the material and he is very forgiving of mistakes.

He is a little abrasive at times, but still a very good teacher. Pay attention and you should do fine. This class was not hard at all. He does not like to repeat things more than 3 times, but I dont blame him. Great class, Great teacher. You will learn a lot from him. Easy A if you pay attention, do all you home work, and try.

Awesome teacher and very funny. answers any questions and does his best to help. I'm taking him again for CIS 1 and he's great./

I highly recommend this teacher. Mr. Anderson is a wonderful instructor!

Extremely easy teacher. Attending class is not mandatory as long as you do your work. Don't really need the computer book, but having the programing book is a must. His test are extremely easy, he reviews all the questions that will be on them.

This was a subject that was fairly difficult for me but Kevin made it quite fun and enjoyable. I should have studied a bit harder though. :)

Anderson is such a great teacher throwing in real life situations and making the class enjoyable for all. Although his tests are a little extreme, you are still able to learn from them and move on. He doesn't assign much homework and is easy to approach outside of class. Great class overall and would reccommend it to students going into law. A+++++

cool guy. knows how to teach. very helpful. just attend his class and u'll be fine. willing to teach to the students speed and not go to fast for ones not knowing what they're doing. we learned word, excel, access and powerpoint. only difficult one i thot was access

Mr. Anderson is a smart man and his class was enjoyable. Everyone should take his class

Overall good teacher. He is funny and likes to help his students. Hiss class is super easy and if you show up you basically get a A.

Mr. Anderson teaches with real life examples and with humor. He will go as slow as needed for everyone to keep up.You have to show up everday to do inclass work that is turned in the same day.Homework is very minimal on a weekly basis.

I've taken three classes (CIS01, CIS20, BUS18) with Mr. Anderson and it's been a delight to have him in every class. He's entertaining, keeps things fresh, and always makes sure everybody is on the right track.

Great class to take, thanks to Mr. Anderson's teaching. His humor and charisma makes his classes interesting and fun.

Great Professor. He is very clear and teaches at the classes level. If you know your stuff, then the class is a breeze. Still interesting though. If you find computer stuff difficult, he will help you get that basic understanding. Highly recommended.

He's very helpful, always willing to help in the lab or office hours. I took CIS 50, CIS 73 & BUS 18 so far with him. He lets you know what going to be on the tests so you know what to study. Sometimes he does go a little fast in class but don't hesitate to ask him to slow it down. I would pick him first if possible. He's got a lot of knowledge!

Exceptionally nice guy. Knows his stuff and really goes the extra mile for his students. Listening to his stories about writing assembly and COBOL back in the day is just fascinating. One of those teachers who understands how hard it is for students nowadays, will work with you if you put in the effort. Seriously, do your self a favor and take him!

This man loves to teach. With all the online classes offered now, I had forgotten how much more is learned in the traditional classes. I could not have taken this class on line. Anderson is the best!

He is awesome! You can tell that he enjoys what he does and also takes the time to get to know his students. Always willing to help and made the material easy to understand. And he's hilarious!

Professor Anderson loves his job & knows what he's doing. Keeps lectures interesting & fun. During lab hours, he was always there to help students. He gives you all the multiple choice questions before taking the midterm / final. Super easy! Definitely recommend. Wish he thought the other computer science classes.

The class was okay. As long as you do the work and show up to class, you should have an A. He goes over what will be on the test. I didn't learn much though, but I still enjoyed the class.

Pretty cool teacher. Talks a lot about his wife and kids. Super funny and bubbly. Highly recommended if you want an easy clss to get by.

Mr. Anderson is awesome! Just do the homework & go to class & you will pass with an A. If you find yourself having any trouble with his class... seriously just talk to him! He is so caring and really funny! Now, don't take his kindness as a weakness because he use to be a lawyer. Mr. Anderson don't play no games and he is NO fool =) He has SWAG!!!

He's an easy teacher but he gets way off topic. He's a VERY nice guy. Teaching wise, I think he can be a little bit more clear. He teaches straight from the powerpoint. I got by without buying the book and going to class because it was pointless. He always just talked about something else besides the lecture.

Great teacher

Very good teacher is willing to help students. Does tell a lot of personal stories but it helps you understand what he's teaching. He does talk fast sometimes so don't be afraid to ask him to slow down and repeat what he said. Grade is based of homework, midterm and final so make you study for them and read the book.

Dude this professor is hands down one of the best here at solano.

I really liked mr. anderson. he is kinda boring in class, but he was very helpful with the programming assignments. Also, if you pay attenetion he will tell you almost everything on the final. I will try to take this professor for another class in the future.

Awesome teacher. Goes a little fast depending on which semester u take him. He is very helpful. And makes sure u know what to study for quizzes and exams. Definitely take him.

Intelligent, with a youthful spirit. Knows what he is doing. Always available for help. If you put forth the effort, he will appreciate it, and you will do good. Great professor.

Great teacher! Can get off subject, but it seems like he does it when he wants to keep students engaged or keep their attention. Extremely helpful

Great teacher. Always willing to help and understands students have issues outside of classroom. He offers extra credit and responds promptly to e mails. Also the most FUNNY teacher I have had. His stories are hilarious. Thanks Kev!

Anderson didn't give any quizzes or tests, just a midterm and a final. He's an easy teacher if you really pay attention to the lectures, if not you get really confused. There was some reading and homework to do in the first half of the semester, but the other half it was all programming. Do your work, come in class ON TIME, pay attention an A

Pay attention, come to class on time and you will get an A in the class. He gives you about 95% of what you need to get an A- a little effort on your own part gets you the guaranteed grade. Funny guy in the sense he sometimes seems a bit lost to technology, despite being an computer science teacher but ultimately he teaches what you need to learn.

Kevin is a real teacher. He is not one of those instructors who just throws curriculum in your face and lets you figure it out. He truly cares about you learning your stuff. Looking forward to another class with him.

He will say attendance doesnt matter, BUT IT DOES! Hes pretty laid back and easy. He doesnt always give the best help and youll have to look elsewhere. He seems a little lost in technology at times, but I really liked him and would take a class from him again IF I knew what it was about to begin with.

Solid professor, I genuinely enjoyed going to this class. Only thing I didn't like was that in the programming assignments he wouldn't really provide any feedback- like telling you if there's a better way to do things. As far as attendance he's really lenient and willing to accept late work.

He is alil hard of hearing when you ask for help it seems like he is yelling but he's not. The biggest complaint: When using Visual Basic he never told us it could not be used on a MAC. Its should have been one of the class requirements or in syllabus. I'm full time work/student and missed a couple of assignments because I could work from home.

Prof. Anderson is a great instructor. Very knowledgeable in law. Can answer anything asked of him. Easy to comprehend what he is teaching. A lot of note taking but this is college. Tells you what you need to know for exams. Would recommend to anybody who wants to learn about law.

Professor Anderson is a wonderful instructor. Passionate and caring, he helps & wants students succeed. Uses real life examples to explain concepts. Not much hw. To earn an A, pay attention in class, do all hw, study thoroughly for exams. Lectures are interesting. Wish he taught more business classes at Solano.

Mr. Anderson is an excellent professor. It's really easy to get an A in his class and the exam reviews are really helpful. His lectures can get boring and off topic at times. He is really helpful and an awesome human being.

Yeah - really easy going guy. It was an easy class all done through simnet. I knew most of the programs already except Access. Almost impossible not to get an A. Good guy.

I enjoy hoc class structure aside from the heavily favored group projects, but he is an all around hilarious and awesome teacher

Mr Anderson is a great teacher I would take this class again in a heartbeat fun and informative Mr Anderson is a very funny teacher and is always nice and understanding the computer lab he teaches in is awesome!

You have to take any CIS class with this guy! He is the best! He is very fair with assignments and grading.

Professor Anderson is the best. He uses an online textbook ($80) and Connect for the homework and tests (please don't cheat). Very knowledgeable about the subjects he teaches and he is easy to talk to. His lectures are super clear and he uses funny examples when teaching a concept. Highly recommend for any computer class. He cares about students.

Kevin!!! You the man. Great class, do the assignments but he does give extensions if you ask. DOO the practice exam, literally the same thing as the exam. He does repeat himself A LOT but it's worth it since it's an easy A. I never paid attention and did everything on my own pace. Take to boost your GPA and you might learn something.

Professor Anderson was amazing! He really loves what he teaches and is very good at engaging the class. His tests are hard, but there are so many ways to get extra credit and do well in his class. Would definitely take again!

Mr. Anderson is a great teacher. He goes off on a lot of tangents but he is very knowledgeable. I wish we didn't do as many group assignments in the beginning of the class but eventually it's all individual work. The tests are easy if you study, he tells you exactly what's going to be on them. I would take his class again.

the greatest professor that I have had the honor of learning from.

Very approachable and genuinely cares about his students' success. He hands out lots of programming assignments but they're small and he doesn't care how you do them as long as you make it work. He also has a wealth of interesting (and funny) stories to tell.

Really good guy. He is patient and caring to his students, goes over the tests before we take then so I feel prepared. Relaxed class, gives good lectures and good amount of at home work. If you dedicate some time to study before the tests and pay some attention in class you will do well.

Although class wasn't mandatory, participation matters. Assignments were graded through a program you had to buy called Simnet. Simnet is a great program for feedback and teaching. Also with a laid back teacher, you're bound to learn and want to take him again. His stories are awesome about life experiences, he' knows how to balance the class well.

This class is actually fun, even if it is boring. His lectures are funny and semi helpful. I don't know what others are saying about practice exams. He didn't give one out to my class. DO THE EXTRA CREDIT! It will save your grade bc the written portion of his exams are hard. Trust me, you'll pass but you need to try. And he really is funny.

As long as you do all the assignments there's no way to fail. All zoom meetings went over what was being tested if you were ever needed extra help. Also understanding if you missed an assignment

Mr. Anderson is a great guy and pretty easy professor, but I think going online due to covid was rough on him. He doesn't do well in an online setting, so if you need lot's of guidance, you may want someone else. However, if you can learn from the "textbook", you will probably love the class- it is pretty easy, with multiple trys on assignments.

Professor Anderson is terrific. He records every meeting, so attending the calls isn't required. The workload is manageable, and his explanation of the concepts is beginner-friendly. Anderson taught in the VB language, FYI. The language is easy to grasp, and he is easy to reach if you have trouble. Take him.

He is so nice and caring. He doesn't make the lectures boring. The classwork is easy if you pay attention and will help you if you need help. One of the best professors here at Solano, totally 100% recommend him.

I was nervous about coming back to college after 10 years but his class is so welcoming. One of the most caring professors at Solano. He takes the time to get to know you. He genuinely wants you to succeed. He really goes above and beyond for his students. I look forward to going to his class.

I liked Professor Anderson a lot. He puts effort and time into his lectures and assignments. He gives good feedback on your assignments. I would take this professor and you'll be fine as long as you do the work.

I couldn't find CIS 22 in the course code list but he did teach CIS 22 this spring semester. I took his class, CIS 1 back in fall 2023 and was a great teacher. He really really cares about his students and will extend the deadline for assignments just for you to catch up. Will help you when you ask for it. Sad that this is his last semester :(

Unfortunately, it's his last semester but he was a really good teacher. He did have trouble hearing so there would often be students chattering in his class but that isn't really his fault. He'd extend due dates if you simply asked.

Professor Anderson is a caring instructor who wants students to succeed. The workload is manageable, and his lectures are engaging. I found unstuck AI helpful for studying alongside the free textbook. Definitely take this class if you can.
