Reviews of professor Tarek Salem

Rating: 3.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
Very easy class to breeze through. All that you are graded on is a set of group assignments/presentations that build on each other. Tarek does an okay job of telling you what to do, grading criteria and assignments are pretty unclear, attendance/textbook is not mandatory. This is the usual BS business class that you can talk your way through.

Really sweet guy and you don't have to attend class but not super organized or clear about things. I think he's a good teacher for people who really like a hands-off approach. Otherwise, he comes off as kind of flighty and uncaring. 

Prob better for other classes that are more lecture heavy, 410 was kind of a nightmare with him.

Tarek's a solid choice. Easy marker, assignments and exams were fair and easy guy to talk to. Knows his stuff but classes are a little dry. Just study his PPT's and you'll be just fine.

This course was incredibly dry, especially considering it was a three-hour night class. Tarek just droned on for hours about fairly commonsense things that I could've taught myself in a half an hour. Hardly any direction is given for the very ambiguous project worth 60% of your grade. However, Tarek was good at responding to emails.

He is nice but he does not provide any information for assignments. Group project were heavy and you follow no instructions because there was none. If you have consulting experience you can take this course. If no, avoid.

I took this as a night class and found Mr. Salem to be very good at keeping our interest over the lengthy three hour lecture. His midterm and final exam were short and fairly easy. As long as you understand and know the content on his slides you wont have any issues. Overall, he was a good prof who is clearly passionate about what he is teaching.

Tarek is a nice guy, and a decent professor. He wants his students to do well and tries his best to help where he can. Midterm was fair. However he has so many assignments that do not have clear instruction. Be ready to write a lot and not be sure if you're on the right page even. Luckily he is an easy grader.

Tarek is an awesome proof who is straight forward and wants all his students to get over an 80% minimum. Very good classes and his one project and couple assignments are straight forward and simple to accomplish to get a great mark. Great Prof.

Definitely a solid prof who really appreciated class participation and the occasional off-topic banter.
