Reviews of professor Lara Khatib

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 1.0/5
This prof is one of the easiest markers I've ever experienced. The class was based on quizzes (she gives the answers as long as you watch the lecture videos), discussions (easy 5/5 if you follow her expectations), and a final assignment (3-4 pages, easy 15 marks). She didn't do the lecturing (Dr. Mirenda did), but seemed very kind & understanding.

She didn't give you any of your grades until the end for discussion posts. Instructions and rubric would sometimes contradict and the feedback she gave on our papers didn't make any sense. In communication with her she was rude and snarky even when in the wrong. She didn't teach you just gave you websites and articles to read (many were irrelevant)

Clearly doesn't care about her students. Assignment feedback is one long paragraph of fluff sent out to all students and maybe a sentence at the end saying "expand on the topic. No real justification for taking marks off. Funny she expects students to feel motivated to move through her course with no real feedback and effort on her part.

Easy class in the sense that you can get 80%+ without too much work but if you are looking for over 90% she is very picky and her marking makes no sense as she takes off random marks for random things and doesn't follow a marking criteria. She's a b**ch but you don't have to deal with her in person at least since the class is online

Highly disappointed with Prof. Lara Khatib. Earned an A+ but her feedback was unhelpfully generic, seeming more like canned comments than tailored advice. Her lack of engagement and personalized guidance significantly hindered the learning experience.

I've previously taken 2 classes with Lara. I found that Lara really looks for quality. I do agree that she can be a tough grader, but for a good reason. I find that she's very open to discussing grades and clarifying/adjusting when need be. I definitely would recommend Lara if you're looking to learn, and not to solely get a good grade.
