Reviews of professor Ian Shaikh

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
Made us do twice the amount of work compared to friends with other CW112 teachers. Awful teacher, never made sense, never had clear rubrics.

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
Uses class time well. Very manageable workload. As long as you put in effort for your work, you will receive a good grade. Kind of vague directions sometimes but it gives you the freedom to write about what you want to write about.

Overall was a good Professor to have as a first semester freshman. The workload was very manageable with only three main essays and we were given time with drafts and feedback. He is very accessible if you have a question or want revisions done on your work.

Attendance is part of your grade, but if you show up you really don't do much in class. There is a decent amount of classwork, but this classwork is only graded on completion, so it doesn't really matter. He gives great feedback on your first and second drafts, which will help you with your final draft. Only have to write 3 papers for the semester.

The essays are about 2 - 4 pages and are graded on improvement, he gives great feedback and if you take advantage of it the class is an easy A. Instead of forcing a topic on everyone he allows students to choose what 
they want to write about the chosen theme. He's very relaxed though a bit quiet and best of us, cares about his students.

Great teacher, he puts a lot of time into everyone's paper and he's very lenient with a lot of deadlines. He uses google classroom which I don't mind because it's more user friendly than Moodle. 3 essays spread throughout the semester and a writer portfolio as a final. He's really nice and easy to access out of class.
