Reviews of professor Noor Eltawil

Rating: 3.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Super nice teacher, but her way of teaching isn't amazing. She follows the book pretty closely for notes, but the book has some super irrelevant notes (for 4A at least) that take up too much time and leave you wanting more thorough and relevant examples. Only the first few labs are hard. Take her if you took AP Physics, good luck otherwise.

Hardest teacher I have ever taken, definitely will be teaching your self this class if you take her. She says she's preparing us for university by giving you 90 mins to do five problem exams like she did for her graduate degree. Sometimes she doesn't even provide enough information and thus the problem is unsolvable. Good luck.

New at teaching. Cares more about length of lab report than content. Need to explain every single detail in reports. Lectures are too quick, writes in hard-to-read cursive, never pauses in her lectures, talks quietly, seems like she doesn't like her job. Each lab takes about 8 hours, once a week. There are more efficient ways 2 learn this material.

Show up, don't skip the lectures, work as much as you can, and you will be fine!

Very hard to enjoy the class when the Professor Eltawil doesn't seem to enjoy teaching very much. Lectures are drier than the Sahara Desert. She will run through a couple chapters a week and expect much more than she asks for on labs. Take her if you like teaching yourself and watching a lot of Khan Academy.

She might be better in an in-person setting, but this is probably the hardest class I have ever taken. The exam problems are nothing like what is covered in class and seem to have missing information. She is also really hard to reach if you have any questions. I would really recommend taking physics with another professor if you can.

Can not say how she teaches in person but in an online setting she is incredibly inaccesable and is not willing to slow down or explain her actions. She is completely inpersonable and does not inspire any sort of desire to learn. I would need a full essay to full state why I would never take professor eltawil in an online setting ever again.

Lectures: not great. Office hours: fantastic. I started crying in the middle of a rotational dynamics lecture because I didn't understand anything, and within 30 minutes of being in her office she cleared everything up. Very good about getting papers back within a week or two. I mean, it's Physics. You can't ask for much.

I enjoyed when I take her class because she is really cares about her students and she makes the physics easy to understand. She is so sincere in her work. TAKE HER
