Reviews of professor Hassan Ebrahimi

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
One of the best profs I've had at Telfer. Gives really great feedback and help with assignments. Adds value to otherwise boring lectures. VERY clear criteria for the final exam.

This is by far the nicest professor I have ever had. Lectures are extremely interesting, there are tons of nuances that you can pick up on that he doesn't cover in the slides. Assignments were extremely straightforward the final was a breeze. Not to mention that he is by far one of the most caring professors I have ever had. Would 100% recommend.

The class is most certainly not easy, and the essays obviously can be quite difficult, but I think as long as you pay attention and do your research you should be alright. Clearly knowledgeable about what he is teaching. One time I missed a lecture, and he took me to his office and gave me and one other student a mini-lecture to fill us in.

Hassan Ebrahimi is a great prof. His lectures add a lot of context to the class material and his lectures are very engaging and entertaining. He clearly outlines expectations for assignments and is always available to help. His grading was always fair and reasonable. Would 100% recommend taking his class.

This professor makes this course extremely work heavy. There is a case almost every week. There are two reflective logs on top of that. He sends around participation signing sheets occasionally. Need to submit a report AND a group presentation. AND TO TOP IT ALL OFF...A FINAL EXAM. This course is demanding with Hassan. Choose another prof.

Super dry lectures and the prof reads off the slides. Who knew you could make innovation so boring. The grading criteria are poorly defined, where you'll lose 10-20% of your grade for things he never asked for in class, from the course outline, or assignment outline. This course would be much better if they used the Harvard case method.

Easily one of the nicest and best professors I've had at uOttawa. Genuinely cares for his students and does his best to make class interesting and engaging. Is very lenient on deadlines and understands that most students have 4 other classes to do work for and will make accommodations for us accordingly.

I think people rating him down are being a tad extreme but yes he needs to do a better job of following his syllabus (the reflective logs had me sweating). He also needs to work on making the in-class activities less of a mess. On the other hand, he seemed considerate especially regarding the coronavirus, would give him a chance to improve.
