Reviews of professor Tanya Halliday

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Tanya is an awful professor. Makes the class so much harder than necessary. Has 80+ slides per lecture that she rushes through and isn't much help when you have questions. Treats you like an idiot if you ask something and is useless when trying to help prepare for exams because she thinks you should be able to memorize everything she has ever said

I love speaking up in class, but she has a snobby response to everything anyone says or asks unless it is the exact answer she's wanting. She is not respectful of others ideas. She speeds through slides that have so much wording on them you can't focus on the slide or what she's saying. She is not patient and does not have an ounce of sympathy.

Dr. Halliday does not set her students up for success. When students ask her what to be prepared for on the exams, her response is "anything in the slides or readings is fair game". Mind you, every exam has about 200+ slides you have to read through. Her lectures are disengaging, boring, and passionless. I do not recommend taking this course.

I'm confused by the prior comments about Dr. Halliday. She was one of the few professors that I felt actually cared about her students during the COVID lockdowns. Her assignments could be tough, but she was always available to answer questions, and provided really good feedback on assignments.

I have never dreaded a class more. The lectures put me to sleep, I was scared to ask for help, and the tests are extremely hard for what we are learning. You have to go through 400 slides for one exam, and forget having Tanya show an ounce of sympathy for you trying to pass. If you can take this class without her, do it and save your GPA
