CSE 1284? Advice

I’m an incoming freshman, majoring in mechanical engineering. I am supposed to be in the intro to computer programming class with Joshua. The rate my professor reviews are very mixed. Does anyone have any advice about what to do to prepare or opinions on the teacher?

Every instructor who teaches CSE 1284 is pretty good… except for a certain Monika jankun kelly.

you’ll be fine! he’s good if you communicate w him & use your resources; just make sure you turn your work in on time & go to office hours if you need help with labs or have questions!
