If you expect perfect factual accuracy from your teachers, yeah. On the flip side, they don't have the curse of knowledge yet i.e. it's still fresh in their mind what was difficult in the beginning, so they can probably explain very well. Just keep in mind who's teaching you, and it's just like if a co-student teaches you.
And if you feel you have to take what you hear with a grain of salt, that's probably good for your learning too.
I just mean in terms of experience. If you deviate from textbook accuracy and go into providing practical advice for real-life scenarios, someone with only a bachelor's and no work history is someone who can only give you canned anecdotes from others. Looking at his resume, it looks like he's had some internships so he has a bit of experience, and that's probably worth something
I went to CMU and was in AEPI fraternity with Brandon Wu. Brandon Wu is exceptional when it comes to functional programming. He was head TA of 15150 for a year, I have 100% confidence in him.
He took a break from TAing for some time, and when he returned he decided to have some fun with his application. He wrote a transpiler from a C like syntax to SML the day before his interview, and used it to joke that they should transition to teaching functional programming in C.
Yeah idk anything about him in particular. I just mean that, on paper, someone who goes straight from bachelor's to teaching is someone who doesn't really have any experience. I notice that a lot of the people who extol the virtues of FP to me are a lot of people straight out of college and have little real-world reference for why FP is useful in a prod environment
