Reviews of professor Neluka Dissanayake

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
Used Pearson online textbook and always gave harder questions than what she taught, very hard to understand and would constantly struggle to help answer any question a student had. Had to curve grades mid semester because of how hard our first exam was. Hardest class I've ever taken, and I was fine in Calc 2. Do not take her if you want to learn

Difficult to understand her. She doesn't explain anything so be prepared to teach yourself. Chegg is worth it for this class. I still don't not how to do the basics from that class

She is a little hard to understand at first, but once you get use to her accent it is better.

She's a smart and good teacher. Her voice isn't super loud so I recommend sitting closer to the front. Overall I recommend her.

I didn't learn anything till 2nd half of semester. Lecture is just doing problems on the board. She doesn't seem like she completely understands the material. Did most my learning by the help of classmates and the internet. The only saving grace is that you can use notes on test and you can make corrections for half points. Exams are most of grade.

Class was originally a MWF class that she decided to condense down to just F making lectures almost pointless, throwing up solved examples and say we can solve it on our own later. All of your learning is going to be off of Chegg. Also she would send out 2+ hour exam reviews, then include none of it on the exam. Exams are 2x harder than HW. 0/10

She's hard to hear and doesn't explain things very much. When we go through examples in class she often just goes through the work and I'm left just confused in general. Expect lot's of outside work and lots of quizzes and tests.

Dr.D is very nice but very quite when lecturing, you will have weekly homework, and the tests are not easy but most are not too hard, however you have to study for this course.

This professor genuinely cares about each student, unlike most professors, she makes sure you understand all material before the test so you actually learn. Exams are tough, but with studying and use of notes you will be fine. Her grading system is structured well with exams only 15% of overall grade.

She gives lots of extra credit. She allows all your notes to be used during tests and the questions on the test are identical to those on the homework. If you don't pass the class it's because you didn't take notes and do your homework. The class is also graded on a curve.
