It's so obvious that he genuinely cares about his students understanding of python. Genuinely a good lecturer and had good notes if you miss a couple classes. |

Literally the most fantastic professor, I wish I could have him for all my programming classes. He values every student and is always open for questions. He is confident in every student's ability to succeed and will take the time to go over any question you may have. He also uses Discord for the class and is very responsive there. The classes are recorded, which is also a huge plus. Dr. Chan is very passionate about what he does and his excitement for programming really rubs off on you. |

Dr. Chan is absolutely amazing when he teaches you Python. He makes sure that everyone understands the concept by frequently giving us exercises in lecture to practice what we'd learn. When getting extra help from him, no matter the circumstance he's in, he will always find some way or time to help you. I truly felt there was a passion in helping his students thrive. Highly recommend him as a professor because you will properly learn without any experiencing any stress. |

Dr. Chan is an amazing professor. You can tell he cares about his students grades. Always makes sure everyone is on the same page. He has no problem explaining anything to you. If you have to programming experience at all then you NEED to take him. |

Dr.Chan is one of those professors who is dedicated to his job and the success of everyone he teaches, he understands the struggle that every individual student has and works with each and every student individually to ensure that every student is successful in his class both with learning the concept and grade wise, if anyone has a chance to take a class with him, I would Highly Recommend, I promise that no one will ever regret taking a course with him |

Dr. Chan loves to teach, he loves to code, and he loves to show his students HOW to find the answer to their questions rather than just giving it to them. Even if you know nothing about coding you will love this class and you will love Joel, the last 2 projects are a bit harder than the first 2 but its nothing crazy, and Dr. Chan is always willing to help. Would highly recommend this class to CS/IS majors as well as nonmajors who just wanna take a really cool elective with a great prof. |

Dr. Chan has a real passion for teaching. He explains things in such a way that makes Python a walk in the park. I have previous programming experience so I can't speak for everyone, but Dr. Chan models the class in a way that focuses less on achieving a good grade, and more on how a person can think and work like a programmer. His lecture examples really helped with both assignments and projects. I will say that the last two projects will seem a bit harder at first, but I really believe that if one really dives deep into the material that Dr. Chan provides, one really can succeed. |

Joel Chan was my introduction to a formal programming class and he made everything smooth sailing for me. He really wants his students to succeed and stresses "computational thinking". |

Joel has a passion for helping students understand the material. Is more than helpful to try and figure out issues you may be having, but also emphasizes the importance of being able to figure out a solution on your own, even if you have to "google it" |
