Reviews of professor Nidhi Patel

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 1.0/5
If you need another GE science, take this class! She counts 3 sentences as a paragraph for the final essay. No notes on lectures. Assignments are reading an article and summarizing. She does call on students if no one participates. She acts stern, but she'll let you make up missing assignments at the end of the year. Easy A.

Too her lecture and lab during the Summer while working full time. Never felt overwhelmed with completing assignments. Extremely nice, will allow students to submit late work. Lecture heavy but she explains material perfectly and makes it interesting. Would love to take her again. She made me enjoy coming to class. Highly recommend.

No note-taking, values paying attention during lectures which causes you to learn a lot. Easy homework and only a few quizzes. The Midterm was the presentation and a paper for the final.

Summer 2020, Oceanography 101, the professor just gives slides and makes us do the work. Instructions are not clear and she does not provide any context, she says to use google to find answers. Professor should actually teach because it's her profession rather she just gives work and makes us do it with no help and unclear instructions.

Prof. Patel loves what she does and she genuinely cares for her students.  Lecture are pretty easy as long as you read and turn in your work, she does not have a difficult grading system. Attendance I would say is mandatory as the beginning of each class there's a read and class discussion those are the easiest points. Be ready she calls on people

Professor Patel is very good at what she teaches, lectures are clear and understandable, homework very light and easy. She encourages participation with class such as small group conversations, answering questions about topics. 10/10 would love to take her class again. She is a very nice person :)

This online lab makes no sense. She gives you slides with questions to answer but no reference other than "google". The response sheet she gives with the slides don't follow the slides or give any reference for graphs and it is very confusing. She is very nice and understanding of personal problems but otherwise this class is kind of a mess.
