Reviews of professor Pavithra Sekhar

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
Not sure why this professor has so many negative reviews. She is a terrific teacher, so of course if you are lazy and don't stay on task you will fail any class. All her work is done inside class, she helps with most of the work. Her exams are all based on the power points which she explains extensively. She is a fair grade for the work being done.

HORRIBLE TEACHER! Do not think about taking her class and stressed all the semester. She is the worst grader that's not the problem, problem is that she makes confusion among students. She skips classes but posts homework for that. Her review for exams never works and classes are so boring. She is mean too. NEVER TAKE HER!

The only way u will pass her class with a good grade is to read each chapter from textbook and take notes on her 50+ powerpoint slides that she just reads off of and show up to class overtime. Worst grader and human being. treats students like crap

Prof Sekhar is AMAZING! If you show up, participate, and follow directions it's a pretty easy A. Labs are so easy and she is very lenient about grading them as long as you answer fully and completely. She tells you exactly what you need to know for her 2 midterms and final, BUT her tests are a little difficult. NO HOMEWORK and only one big project.

Possibility the worst professor I have taken so far at NOVA. Her personality is good but as a teacher she SUCKS. She treats students like they are in hs and tries to discipline them through harsh comments and grading. Her exams are extremely hard intentionally. Worst grader. She reads off slides and expects students to do all the work.

STAY AWAY OF HER! She is not teacher of Environment, but takes classes for environmental science! She will make your grade a mess. Pavithra never answers mail on time, skip classes without any reason. Her power point classes are so boring, does not care about students. She is tough grader and mean minded. DO NOT TAKE HER CLASS.
