Reviews of professor Maheshika Palihawadana

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
This is the worst Professor/ Teacher I've ever had in my entire life, Did not learn anything from the class because the way she's teaching also got an F on both test even tho I spent over 5 hours studying it. Do not choose this professor once so ever!

This is a difficult subject, but she does a good job of teaching it. A lot of homework is assigned but this makes sense given the subject. Quizzes and exams are graded fairly with partial credit given. Probably the best physics teacher at this college.

Never again. I urge you to please find someone else. Didn't explain any questions and would just yell at you until you had the right answer. Doesn't explain or make sense of anything. Run fast and far.

While this is a difficult class, Dr. Palihawadana is a great professor. She genuinely wants everyone to do well. Pay very close attention in class & take detailed notes. Only problem I had was that she would often go overtime during lectures. If you need help make sure to go to office hours or MavPASS. Hw was difficult but translated well to exams.

Probably the worst teacher I have ever had. She does not care about your grades and does not teach the material at all. Recommend a different professor!
