Reviews of professor Ali Ozdemir

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Even though I struggled a lot with math and was afraid that taking an econ course would be rough, thanks to Dr. Ozdemir I actually learned a lot. He goes thru power point slides and gives examples from daily life experiences which makes econ more interesting. Just go to class and participate you'll be fine

Professor Ozdemir does genuinely care about his students and enjoys teaching. He is rather an upbeat and optimistic professor during his lectures. However, homeworks are done online and are often difficult. The homework allows multiple tries but only averages the score on tries. The class is also very disorganized and hard to find any content.

Just a very disorganized professor, asking him questions over email was met with condescending and unprofessional responses. His grading system is unclear and he would take off points of papers without really explaining why. Take anyone else.

Hard to understand and clueless w/ technology. Will definitely pick favorites (if there's a smart kid/teacher's pet in your class he will lean on that student to explain concepts for the class instead of teaching himself). Need to constantly check for assignments as he never gives reminders for when anything is due. Choose someone else. C/NC taken

Absolutely the worst teacher Ive ever had. He doesnt seem to understand English well and definitely does not understand how online classes work. He repeatedly would change exam/ quiz Windows because he would forget to post them. His tests are hard confusing and do not cover the material he gives you. He was rude when I would email him. Horrible

Worst teacher ever. Straight A's & honors students got C's in his class. The average on exams was a D, but he curved the grades for his favorites. Talked about students & being annoyed with them in class. Talks under his breath & expects you to know everything. No responsibility for his job. The material itself isn't bad, but his lectures are awful

very dull at lecturing and is not helpful when you have questions.

He is one of the worst professors I have had. Avoid at all costs.

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
doesn't respond to emails. doesn't know what he's teaching (countless times he'd stumble and screw up explaining things because of his lack of knowledge on the teaching material). He's foreign so he's hard enough to understand in the first place, let alone when he stumbles broken English trying to read ppt slides he didn't even make. stay. away.

I really enjoyed having Dr. Ozdemir. As long as you read and make sure you study well, you'll be fine. Also, while attendance is not mandatory, you should go, because he gives out participation points nearly every lecture. I really respect him and think he's a great professor.
