Reviews of professor M Omar Faruque

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Very dry class. The prof was not enthusiastic or captivating at all. He was reading everything off the slides. He would also try to make things sound more intellectually smarter to the point where some concepts did not make sense. At least for me.

Lectures are incoherent, and assignment instructions are very confusing, not to mention quite heavy assignment load. He manages to overcomplicate topics to the point of confusion. I would say consider other 300 level soc courses.

So boring and uninterested in what he is teaching. Runs through his slides and teaches as if he is in a rush. Fills his slides with text just to skip over what it says. Makes the material more confusing than it has to be because he does not explain clearly or try to simplify. Very disengaging.

The most boring and dry class I have ever taken at uoft. His lectures are not engaging and he has so many writing assignments and readings. You will never have time for other classes. The grading is also super hard and the feedback does not make any sense. I would avoid this class.
