Reviews of professor Mahreen Khalid

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Professor Khalid is one of the best teachers that I have ever had from elementary school to college; in a way she's sort of like a mom. If you want to learn how to take some great photos she is the go to. It's not easy to get an A in the class, but that's the way it should be; she makes you work for it and that's the great thing about her.

Professor Khalid is an amazing photographer and very passionate about what she teaches. She is also hilarious and has made my class burst into laughter on many occasions. Although she has a great sense of humor, do not think that she will let you slip by with an easy A. She wants you to become a great photographer and will be very harsh sometimes!

Lali is such a wonderful woman but be ready for really brutal, harsh feedback about your photos. She knows that she knows what she is talking about and that you know nothing even if you say you do.

The best professor I had for semester one! She truly cares about her work. She wants you to know what makes great work and shows you so many beautiful artists to know about. She hates the idea of looking into problematic artists in history and I was able to fully agree. She is a tough grader but she will make sure you do well.

Khalid's lectures were so long. This semester's class was over zoom and she was not very good at engaging students during the 90-min lectures. I feel like if this was IRL it would be different. Other than that, she is a funny person to listen to, always cracking jokes in the class. Also, she is very strict on attendance, so make sure to go to class

Prof Khalid has been my favorite prof at IC so far. She truly wants her students to be the best photographers they can be and will push them in order to do so. She is incredibly brilliant, talented, and funny; I feel very privileged that I got to learn from her.

Professor Khalid was incredibly helpful when I was feeling discouraged due to my lack of experience compared to my peers. She pushed me to become a great photographer and discover my own unique style and passions. Every class with her felt extremely purposeful and I'm very grateful she was my professor.
