Reviews of professor Shakila Tobwala

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
A really amazing Chemistry professor. Her class is well laid out, and she really cares about her students. 4 quizzes, 4 finals and 1 test, along with Labs, HW and Discussion. Very fair on grading, and very nice and easily accessible too. The best chemistry professor I could've taken, really.

If you don't put in the work, you will fail, but the work is super easily laid out. Also, almost every test and quiz came with extra credit. To put into perspective how much extra credit there was, I had a 104% for most of the year and I didn't get the maximum. There is also a lot of memorization; periodic table, polyatomic ions, and nomenclature.

Prof. Tobwala may at first try to scare you out of her class, but once you get through that first week she is very nice. While she has high expectations for her class she will help you get an A in the class if you put in the effort. If you want to learn about chemistry and get a good grade take Prof. Tobwala's class.

Very smart professor who actually cares about the students and if they truly understand the topic. Homework on MyLab is incredibly helpful as it sets up everything we learned in the lectures. Lab's are pretty straightforward and she is available to help. Exams aren't hard if you study, overall good experience.

Awesome professor, truly one of a kind. She had great lectures and you could tell she really knew what she was doing. She was very fair with everything and put things in a way that were easy to understand. She was also kind of hilarious at times, I totally recommend her

Worst chem teacher ever. She's not available outside of class and gives difficult challenge problems for tests. She will call you out during class so be prepared.

Professor Tobwala was my favorite professor of the semester. Shes always available to help you no matter what and she really cares about teaching the material to you through her very clear lectures and likes to see all the students succeed. You wouldnt mind putting in the work either when you have Tobwala as a professor. 11/10 would take again.

This professor will by far be the best chemistry professor you will ever have. Her motherly persona gives you a feeling a comfort in the class even though you might be getting wrecked. However if you have at least half of your brain and a will to show up to class you will succeed in this course. 13/10

Prof Tobwala genuinely cares about her students, and will do her best for you to succeed in her class. Lots of homework/heavy lecture, but if you study, you'll do great.
