He is a very nice man; however, the whole class was a waste of time. I want my tuition money back. When he's enthusiastic, its about something off topic, he runs on a lot of tangents. He tells you what sentences to highlight in the text, but doesnt teach the theory. Very unorganized and unstructured! Stresses you out 2 weeks before class ends.

He knows his stuff, doesn't waste his time on powerpoints & overexplaining. Tells you exactly what's on your exams. So take notes of everything that's on the board. He recognizes hard work and can tell who is paying attention and isn't. He's one of the nicest profs I've ever had. will always be grateful for how much he helped me get a decent grade

I attended Amir's class at this spring term. His class was wonderful. His excellent teaching had made difficult materials much easier for students to follow and had made complicated formulas much easier for students to understand and to use. I highly recommend his class.

Amir is very smart and knowledgeable about statistics, he loves math. He made the course very easy to keep up with by splitting up the exams into smaller quizzes. He explains the concepts much better than the textbook and gives easier formulas to use. He gives you many chances to receive bonus marks and boost your mark. Very good for BADM210!

Amir's Information Systems class is something to stay away from. All the other teachers do it differently at Cap. He is the only one to persist with his own way of teaching it. He is very full of himself and he thinks he does a good job at explaining but in fact, he is only boosting his ego. He is a horrible marker and he doesn't answer emails.

He does this thing "Amir dollars" that are super unfair. Rewards people who are loud, penalizes those who don't try to answer everything. Completely arbitrary as to when he gives these things out and they boost your grade at the end of the year. Overall is fine, but its hard to follow some lectures. Very.... excitable.

Amir dollars are directed more towards extroverts. He gives excellent lectures, as the textbook is confusing and has errors, so don't miss it. Reachable outside of class but never in his own office during his stated 'office hours'. He is willing to help if you put in the effort. Tough course!!

Amir is truly incredible, I'm writing this review two years after I took his class because I can't stop thinking about how much I miss him. Never in my life did I think I would get a B in Stats but he forces you to pay attention with his yelling and bizarre anecdotes. God, what I wouldn't give to hear him yell good morning at me again. Miss you pal

Amir is the worst prof I have ever had at CapU. He calls out on people to answer questions in class and if you don't know the answer to it, he will make you feel horrible about yourself. He is so rude and will always raise his voice. He is very unorganized and doesn't show empathy for those who were struggling. Would NOT recommend him at all.

I took 2 courses with Amir in the same term, and he was excellent in both of them, particularly business statistics. His lectures are very fun and engaging, and you actually receive bonus marks on your final exam for paying attention and contributing to class discussions. Amir is also a very fair grader, so just make sure you know the content.

I have never in my life gotten a grade below A, except for this course. He took so long to reply to my emails that I had to contact the faculty 3 times. No clear grading criteria and he simply grades you based on what he personally thinks is good and bad.

Amir is by far the BEST professor I have ever met. He actually loves teaching you can really feel his passion. If you are here to learn, you're in the right place. Just be cautious not to miss classes or else you will have a hard time studying yourself. Really EASY course if you don't miss class, I didn't study but paid 100% attention and got A+.

Amir is a great teacher, I took his 3 hour class and it was not boring or unentertaining at all. He is a very lively person and is very clear on how to do things. He will even stop the class and go help a single individual if they are behind and will stay after class to help them as well.

I never trust this website because here are the "C-" students who are looking for A+ classes. I was about to fail this class before the final exam, but I studied for the exam and got 94.5%. Tips for future students: listen carefully, note down everything, attend every class, and do the chapter questions.

He will put you on the spot and shame you if you do something wrong / contradict him. Gives NO INSTRUCTIONS, uses other professor's work constantly, will ask you to send pics of your pages in ur textbooks as "proof" of having the textbooks. Vague, does not know how to speak without yelling or interrupting, terrible experience overall.

Absolutely disrespectful, disorganized and rude professor. He truly makes you hate going to school. He needs to work on his behaviour and treat his students with dignity. No self respect at all in him as he comes to class 10 minutes late always. 0/10 rating wish I could give him here. He makes sick students run for doctor notes when they're sick

Amir is great! Go to class, do the practice questions, and watch the videos he provides online. Stats is a hard concept to grasp so doing the bare minimum is not gonna be enough but Amir was always ready to help both in class and at home, he literally gives you his phone number to call if you need help. He's a great prof, just put in the work.
