Reviews of professor Tejas Shah

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
One of the worst professors I have taken. She goes through the material super fast without ever thinking whether her students understand the concept or not. Her assignments are super difficult and complex, they resemble more like its made for an experienced programmer rather than for a student who is starting to learn programming. Good luck.

The worst professor and person ever. This is the first class I ever failed, still don't know how that happened.

The subject matter was difficult, and I took this course over a summer sem. Shah moved very quickly but was great at explaining all the information in a concise manner. If you do all the HW and attendance, you will do well. Communicate if you have any issues; she is understanding. Be ready to take lots of notes. Color coding helps.

Honestly this class was just a mess from the beginning. First, she hand writes the notes and equations on the board so you have to decipher her writing. Second, the only grades were the four tests. So if you messed up one your grade was screwed. Finally, she went so fast through the lectures. Make sure this is not your first calc class!

Choosing not to take this professor again for a Programming Fundamentals class stems from many factors. One incident that reflects this sentiment occurred after the midterm exam when the professor remarked, "I expected lower scores." This comment displayed a lack of faith in the students' abilities and undermined their efforts and hard work.

Tough class with a patient, intelligent Prof (and TA!). She'll gladly help you, but you also need to PRACTICE daily.

Never hesitate to raise your hand. She'll always stop to help you get it. Even in exams.

GO TO OFFICE HOURS. Tell her everything you're struggling with, big or small. Show her your exam mistakes.

I promise you can easily get an A.
