Mr Hanson is wonderful! He's really passionate about computer science, and thanks to his class, I'm inspired to take on the field myself. He's a brilliant teacher as he explains new concepts patiently and thoroughly. Make sure to do well on tests as they basically make or break your grade. (Do practice FRQs from past AP exams) There's almost no homework and most of the in-class assignments are projects graded on completion. I learned a lot in this class, and gained great experiences in teamwork, object based programming, and problem solving. I hope you found this review helpful! Best of luck!
