Reviews of professor Shenaz Shahban

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
UBC has since fired her. Let us hope she changes her profession.

I thought the lectures were engaging and easy to understand since she used a lot of examples! Caring prof, and would definitely retake a class with her.

Save yourself the headache. Her grading criteria did not align with her marking, and she changed her mind about the way she would mark a few times only to change it again after we had already submitted our papers. Also, she is shockingly rude, rude, RUDE! Ask her a question and you'll get a snarky comment rather than an answer to your question.

If I could rate this prof a 0 i would. She is terrible, inside and outside of the classroom. Dont take a class with her.

Extremely disorganized. Be prepared to pay for her own books and not use them as well as read most of the textbooks to find material not covered in class. Gives easy tests to bell curves down and marks final paper poorly even though improper outlines were given

Hands-down the most caring prof. Always checked in to see how I was doing and was always wanting to support me and my overall well-being. There seems to be a lot of controversy surrounding Shenaz, but I have never had a problem with her and have taken 3 of her classes and loved every second of them... they one class I barely skipped!!!

Horrible. Absolutely horrible as a professor and a human being. She will go above and beyond to insult you and those you care about if she ever tries to do small-talk with you in office hours. Will try to do "therapy" on you when you ask for something related to the course. Do not take her courses.

A traumatic experience for all was had in her class.
She has actually been let go of 2 positions within UBC. (Enough said).


Horrible professor, rude, and completely inconsistent in her feedback and grading.
