Reviews of professor Ebrahim Ebrahim

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Dr. Ebrahim is a great professor! He really helps students grasp concepts during office hours, which is helpful as his notation can get very confusing, especially with the lack of online resources. Homework is insanely hard, but the midterm and final were noticeably easier, and he gives practice problems that are quite similar to those tests.

Best lecturer at UCSB. Used to take his 117 class as well. He explained concepts and theorems clearly in his class and is willing to help in office hours and on campus wire. He offers several grading options and takes the highest one. Will curve slightly as well. Will definitely take his lectures in the future.

Dr. Ebrahim is by far the best professor I ever had at UCSB. He is super clear with his concepts and is very open to students who need help or have an issue with grading. In terms of the classwork, daily quizzes were doable. We also had presentations and homework that were hard because they were conceptual but just ask him for help.

He's very clear with his explanations and you can tell he's very passionate about teaching and the subject itself. Lectures were non mandatory but most of us showed up anyway because they were super helpful. He's always available outside of class and responds to messages quickly. Tests were fair but you do have to put in a lot of work to do well.

This quarter was different than he normally teaches, there were no midterms or final. One project broken into parts replaced that. Lectures were easy to follow along and homework was manageable as long as you took good notes and read the assigned reading. Extremely accessible and pretty much any hour of the day. I would definitely recommend him.
