Reviews of professor Dalpat Rajpurohit

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
nice guy but a poor teacher. His lectures don't have any structure, even though he uses a powerpoint (his ppt's & lecture don't flow well together and sometimes the ppt's aren't structured either). He teaches this class like it's a high school class (grades notes, participation mandatory). Doesn't seem like he knows what he's doing

Nice professor and knowledgeable in the subject. I liked how readings were paired with an assignment to make sure you did the reading. The lectures were okay, but were kind of confusing sometimes because the information wasn't organized. The quizzes and assignments required a lot of writing (ex 350 words per answer).

LOVEDD Professor Raj, by far one of my favorite professors I have taken at UT. He is so passionate and knowledgeable in Ghazal history it has made me interested in it outside of the class. Very fun class with a very easy syllabus to follow, take take take!!

He is truly an amazing professor. Well informed, explains the concepts very well and has true mastery over literary traditions of India.

He clearly knows the material. That being said, he is very unclear and un-engaging as a lecturer - he was very unwilling to clarify terms in Hindi that those in the class don't know unless forcibly prompted to do so, and demanded too much writing for response papers that were due twice weekly. I dropped this class after 2 weeks -- it was worth it.

he gives you his quiz questions beforehand so the quizzes are easy if you prepare, but his lectures are so hard to follow and not very engaging
