Reviews of professor Heli Patel

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Taken during COVID sem. It's a 7:30am but we only met once every two weeks. She is a nice professor and you learn a lot, but she grades pretty strictly. She does give good feedback for what you miss. Exams were lockdown browser, no cam, open note. You definitely have to work HARD for your grade. Would recommend doing final project alone; it's easy.

Upper division elective that gives you a good introduction to tools and application in the real work industry. I would have loved to take her class in person but still felt like I got a lot of things out of the class. Definitely recommend taking her class.

Class requires lectures, homework, 1 midterm, 1 final, and 1 project. Very clear syllabus and schedule makes it easy to plan. Make sure you do your homework! She is open to answering questions so dont wait until the last minute.

Professor Patel's class was enjoyable and I actually learned skills that matter. I appreciated how she challenged us both with data and design. She also gives clear feedback on assignments so you know where you lost points. I recommend taking her class if you want to actually learn something in school.

Put in the work youll get a lot out of it. There should be a part 2 of this class offered for those looking to enhance their skills based on a foundation from this course. She treats you like an adult and expects you to get the work done and provides resources to do so. No complaints

Professor Patel is an extremely knowledgable and approachable instructor that knows the basics, and advanced techniques about Data Visualization. You will learn what it takes to be given a dataset, and discover the "story" that lives inside. I was given tools in class that I was immediately able to use in the real world at my company. 10/10!

The class is easy, but a challenge if you apply yourself. Course is well-structured and Professor Patel does a great job at providing more than just the text itself. Youll get to work with industry-applicable data viz software(No coding). Shes a recent grad, so shes understanding of student issues and provides great insight during lectures.

Clear syllabus and lectures. Easy to understand and knowledgeable about the subject. Interesting subject and should be mandatory instead of an elective. Glad I took her!

The other comments made her class seem like an easy A, but that is not the case. The class assignments are doable, however, her midterm and final are difficult. The only good thing about this class is that you learn how to use Tableau, Power BI, and R.
