Reviews of professor Nassim Tabri

Rating: 3.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Professor Tabri really cares about his field of research (Eating Disorders), but is not the best at imparting information. He tended to seem scattered. He read off his notes like he was seeing them for the first time. It's a shame, because what could have been one of the most engaging courses seemed slow and dry. Also, MUST read and know textbook!!

I really liked Nassim's class! He's a very nice prof who wants to see his students succeed. There is a lot of information in this course which can be tricky, and from time to time he seems to get flustered with his information, but overall I enjoyed his class!

Avoid if you can. His short answer questions are WIDELY specific, as in, if you dont use the exact word choice he used in his slides you get nothing. Textbook is testable even if it's not on slides so get ready to teach yourself Wont meet with students outside class to discuss grades, instead forced to email long paragraphs to discuss anything.

An ok prof, does not call students out. Wish he encouraged more discussion similar to what was seen when first starting at Carleton. Exams are tricky and either hit or miss containing ample let alone diverse material so better get crackin since everything is fair game. Getting a bit better at making exams, voice can come across as monotone at times

Very passionate about his field & a wonderful person with inspiring lectures (although they can be lengthy and boring at times). Only graded by 3 exams, but if you study and attend lectures you will pass with a good grade (very straightforward exams with hints in lectures). Textbook chapters are incredibly short, so very easy to read!

If you can, avoid taking a class with this professor, however, he does have some potential. His exams are quite vague, expects you to regurgitate almost word to word from his lecture slides. The textbook Is mandatory, you are expected to know everything (even if it's not in the lecture). He is also not very good at replying to emails.

Professor Tabri seems genuine and nice, but his lectures are super long and he reads a lot. There are also only 3 exams to get graded on.

Knowledgable and passionate about the subject but very slow at delivery. The lecture and the content itself are very informative but the lecture drags on longer than it should. I like that the exam is both long answer and multiple choice but no assignments so u need to really read the textbook & know the material to pass

The exams were very difficult. Hardest online exams I have ever written. Exams were based on textbook material--lecture notes were somewhat helpful in online exams. Must read textbook.

Good professor and cares about his students, guest lectures are great and add some interest.
