Reviews of professor Huma Sheikh

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 1.0/5
Dr. Sheikh was a great professor to take ENC2135 with. She is very understanding and flexible with due dates and lets students work independently most of the time. She does not spend a lot of time lecturing material or teaching topics really in depth. If this doesn't work for you I wouldn't recommend taking the class with her. Overall really great!

This is by far the worst professor I've ever had. Grades are based off of 4 papers that have VERY vague instructions. She refuses to answer questions on the instructions and almost never answers emails. When she does answer emails she's not helpful and extremely rude. If I were you, I'd do EVERYTHING possible to avoid taking a class taught by her.

I took this online and it was horrible. Absolutely no instruction or feedback on papers. She was impossible to reach, even if you did email questions, she emailed back with no helpful information. Did not put grades in until the end of the semester so you had no idea how you were doing until final grade came out, still ungraded projects in canvas.

One of the most understanding professors ever! I had some difficulties turning things in and she was super compassionate and provided me extra opportunities so that I can still succeed. I am normally not a fan of English courses but she made it worthwhile due to her deep respect for students and great feedback and communication. Highly recommend!

Disrespectful of students time. Not friendly, communicative, or flexible. Had a scheduled meeting with her and five minutes INTO the scheduled me she emailed me telling me she had a meeting a few minutes and that we would zoom tomorrow. Problem was, I had no time tomorrow. Then gave me an F for the assignment.

Instructions were always clear and assignments were not too difficult. She was easily accessible to speak with and was interested in students success!

There was absolutely no instruction other than files uploaded to canvas, which are usually vague. If you email her with questions, she will respond vaguely with attitude. In the one meeting we had with her, she didn't turn on her camera and obviously had never looked at our papers before. Everything is for completion and no feedback is given.

Professor Sheikh has been a very flexible instructor in times of hurricanes and personal crises but there are definitely been times I've been frustrated with the coursework. Not going to claim she is the best out there but if you would like an instructor who gets the job done, she's for you. She will always care about your major or interests.
