Reviews of professor Tamara Byk

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Professor Byk is a very good professor for lab. She is very nice and approachable, will always answer questions about the lab during class time. She does take off points on lab reports, but it is not to a point where it is excessive. She has her guideline on her syllabus to follow and every time I would get a 95 at least for just following.

I absolutly love this professor! She will work with you if you dont understand something. I brought in material from another class and she explained it to me so that I could understand it. Top notch instructor, highly recommend her!

I took the course for the good reviews given. When you asked a question she made you feel dumb for asking even if your making sure. She does answer calculation questions if you have them which is nice but she does have a hard accent and talks low. She just repeats the calculations on your pre-lab that made it more confusing before doing the lab.

Never had to write a full lab report! Her minilectures were very helpful and easy to follow along to. Labs were usually completed within the same period, but she is quite a tough grader. Is more than willing to answer any questions you have and guide you through any problems.

Prof Byk is fantastic for lab so take her. Although her Russian accent made it difficult to understand her at times, she laid down the foundation for each lab very easily. She has clear grading criteria and expectations, so just refer to the syllabus for your labs and you will get an easy A. She is also very sweet so that is a huge plus.
