Reviews of professor Rafael Teixeira

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
This class is very difficult, but he's a great teacher. if you miss a day, you will be completely lost. He gives 3 quizzes and 3 exams, they are hard so be sure to study. He always gives tons of partial credit on exams, so even when I thought I failed I did well because of his grading style

Some friends told me to take Dr. Teixeira for business stats and I loved it. He makes you work, homework almost every week, quizzes, exams, but he shows you the path. He says and explains all problems in classroom and easily accessed in office hours.

This is a difficult class, but you learn a little bit of SAP, which helped me get an internship.

DSCI232 in general is the most failed and difficult class in the School of Business. However, from what I've heard Prof. Rafael is your best bet when taking this class. You WILL be confused at some point but ask questions, pay attention and you'll manage! He gave out an opportunity to earn back lost points on the midterm bc the class did so bad!

Worst professor I have ever had, did not teach the class and only lectured via youtube videos. Refused to answer students questions during review sessions and told them that they did not pay enough attention to the videos. DO NOT TAKE!!!!

This guy makes you work but helps you pass. Be prepared to follow his instructions and you'll be fine.

Super hard class no matter what professor you take, but this one made it a bit easier. He is very understanding and not a harsh grader, he does not want you to fail.

I took him as a Maymester course and it was fine. It was a lot of work, but it was all online. He was very helpful via Zoom.

Dr. Teixeira is one of my favorite professors I've had at CofC. If you have an opportunity to take his course, do it! He's a really nice guy and breaks down difficult concepts in a way that's easy to understand. I also had an independent study with him. He was a great mentor and was always available - even on short notice - outside of class. 10/10
