Reviews of professor Raveena Parbhudayal

Rating: 3.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
Average professor and seems to lack a bit of sympathy. Some of her answers contradicted what was learned in the lecture, so there was a miscommunication. Also told students that "we don't listen" after a mediocre score average on a lab quiz which seemed a bit inappropriate since the lab students were well-behaved.

This professor is truly a gem, she is very sweet and caring. Very clear in her presentations and always willing to help you if you're stuck on something and need more clarification. Everything is straight forward, just pay attention, read and you will do amazing!

She is the sweetest. Really cares about students. Microbio is a tough subject to learn, but she lightens up the mood in class so that it wont be stressful. Type of work; quizzes about information in the power points, in class lab worksheets, and the final is a practical (that was much easier than it sounded).

Raveena is a good teacher. Her lectures can run a bit long. There is a quizz at the start of EVERY class based on the material from the week before. The class can feel a bit long as you have to sit through a lecture prior to actually getting into the lab. Shes a fun person, loves her field, and wants you to learn. Always go over slides before class

She changes rules on case by case scenario rather than have a solid one in answering a quiz. . She's always using the "flag for cheating" term, using the excuse to give a 0. There are people who truly want to learn the right way. Seems inexperienced to me, confuses us at times with her lack of clarity, slow to respond to emails.

If you cheat, get called out, then double down on the cheating and fail, whose fault is it really? Her expectations are reasonable and clearly explained. It's useful to ask questions for clarity since it will help with the lecture portion of BIO230. An online lab class due to Covid limited a full lab experience, but she made the most of it.

Parbudayal is so helpful, caring and sweet, she really cares for students but put in your work. Her lab goes with the lectures so it's very helpful. She gives quizzes every week based on the previous lecture which helps a lot. She knows her stuff, always prepared, organized and don't be afraid to ask questions. Always there to help. Shes great!
