Two thumbs up for this prof. He is kind and funny and calls you in class by name that none of my other teachers do and he is an excellent teachers. He knows his stuff and knows how to it by making it fun with example so We can relate to

Really awesome prof! Hated law, yet he makes it interesting and likes to crack funny jokes. Although his exams are kind of difficult, like I said I'm not a law person, it's very much what he discussed in his lectures and slides provided.

The course was excellent because Shafik always explained all topics with examples. He has good law knowledge and was worried about his students learning. He was one of the best teachers this term for me.

Pros: Engaging lectures, makes great slides/notes, unpacks information and concepts and makes them very simple and easy to understand. Sense of humor. Knows what he's talking about, teaches at SFU. Will hold class online if he's sick. Midterms very easy.

Cons: Two midterms two weeks apart, an assignment that he never went over

Found the teach very good. Clearly knows his stuff. Will not tolerate lazy students in class who come unprepared . Great participation in his class and excellent story telling and examples to drive the point home. Liked it.

Mr. Bhalloo has engaging and informative lectures along with his powerpoints and recorded lectures online. He is one of the best in the crim department and is kind, fair, and respectful towards students.

I took CRIM 1115 online with Shafik, wasn't in the course code but anyway, we met once a week, and he would go over a PowerPoint discussing the material of that chapter. The lectures weren't too useful as it was the same material in the textbook, but he would explain it which helps. Overall, you could easily only read the textbook and do well.

Good lectures and funny prof, but be warned; he is ideologically possessed, very old school, rude when you talk to him or approach for questions. Take James Pflanz instead, at least he doesn't yell at me over the phone when i request office hours.
