She is probably the nicest professor I ever had! However, she tend to just memorize the whole textbook (which is impressing), but her lectures easily becomes a bit long as she is really passionate about economics. On the other hand, she really wants you to well and you will most likely never have a professor that will help you like she do.
She is probably the nicest professor I ever had, she tend to just memorize the textbook and assignments. she really wants you to well .
Aqeela a great person, but her lectures are not very helpful. I found it easier to just read the textbook sometimes. She didn't always totally understand the material herself, and overall was pretty useless when you wanted to have a more in-depth understanding of the material. She gave horrible quizzes at the beginning of each class. Not fun.
Extremely nice professor who honestly just wants you to succeed. Fair marker and always assures students she is there for help when you need it. She is passionate about what she does. But, the lectures are very long and some material should be simplified.
Has in-class test in every class and it very helped me to learn. She responses to you very quick through email, so if you have any doubts you can directly write to her.
Pros:responds to emails fast, wants her students to succeed, TRIES to answer questions thoroughly, quiz/in class assignment each wk to boost marks, 3 group assignments to help boost mark, MCQ's for midterm & final are from study guide (must buy) Cons:must go to lectures to learn how to solve questions, not clear when teaching how to use formulas
she is the most respected professor,she teaches really well and guides every student really well, she is a very helpful and friendly professor.
A really good professor who cares about her students and offers help when needed. her lectures are interesting and she has a great sense of humor. Brilliant professor and quite helpful.
Aqeela is a splendid teacher. I honestly enjoyed her classes more than I thought i would. You can tell she is passionate about her students and GENUINELY wants you to pass. She does quizzes in every class though so endeavour not to miss it BUT those quizzes are extremely helpful. To pass her class just simply go to her for help, she WANTS to help
If you wish to understand how economics work, Aqeela puts her hard work into making sure everyone understands the material! She is always available for questions outside of class, and will remember who you are, because she cares for you to succeed and she will go outside of her way to make sure you do. If you participate in class you will do great!
Cares about the students and making sure they get the grade they deserve even if she doesn't come across as that at the start. Mastered how to make the students understand the concepts through frequent mini quizzes and assignments.
Really cares whether you understand the information, gives quizzes and handouts in class and most of the time the questions will be on the exam. Also use the study guide it can help with the questions in exams as well. She teaches slowly but very well.
Best Eco prof
Very nice, caring and understanding. She wants to make sure everyone understands the material, gives handouts and worksheets to work on every lecture that helps understand course material which is also on most of her quizzes/exams. She explains the matter well, just like how the textbook would. 10/10 would recommend!
I took her micro and marcoeconomics in the first year. She is a very nice teacher. I'm an international student, and there are some language problems when I study, but Aqeela helps me a lot when I ask her help to solve my problem. I always email her to ask for help in study problems, and she replys me so fast, I want to choose her course again!
do yourself a favour and don't take her . :) doesn't give answers to handouts given in class and waits until the absolute last minute to go through them in class so basically you're going to be unprepared for midterm and final. Good luck fellas
She really cares about her students and gives good feedback about any question. She give a quiz every class to make attendance mandatory, and likes very detailed reponses, making it hard to get everything 100% right. I would recommend her if you want to learn, but be prepared to work for it.
I highly recommend first year students to take ECON class with her. She is a good professor and the tests are not difficult if you study.
Probably the best professor at Humber College. I took the Micro and Macroeconomics classes with her and passed with an A in both. She's extremely clear about the concepts and is always ready to help out her students. The only time you'll have difficulty in her class is when you slack off. Come to class, do the handouts and you'll be fine.
Would take her class again
A great professor and a classic example of just how much difference a professor's dedication to her field can change the learning experience for a student. Aqeela was very helpful, she makes you work for your grade, in a good way. Her method with small tests gets you engaged. I regret not taking macro with her, since she explains concepts so well
Great Prof! By far the best econ Prof. I've ever had.
excellent teacher goes above and beyond. just ensure you choose a good group as it can impact your grade. shes very friendly and wants her students to be successful
Get's off topic, lecture does not help class learn. Talks about Pakistan after every point. Painful to sit through her whole class. Did not retain anything.
I am not a fan of her. She doesn't teach things clearly and is not friendly.
So long as you're willing to commit to the course requirements, Aqeela is a great econ prof. She gave great feedback through email for assignments and questions. Anyone who struggled likely didn't think to reach out to her. She will have your back if you show the initiative to learn. Participate, practice, show up to class... you'll be successful
She's a great prof. Yes it was a hard class for me, but I really appreciated her effort to ensure I got exactly what I needed.
I believe she is one of the best teacher I ever had, explains everything clearly and incase if you dont understand anything, she will explain it until you do. And as somebody said that she talks about Pakistan all the time, it is because she does the comparison between Canada and Pakistan so that you have the knowledge of what she is trying to exp
Excellent economics professor at humber. Always goes above for her students and cares about there success. Wish humber hires her full time. Attend class do ices and handouts and end of chapter questions and you are guaranteed an A. She comes hard on the finals so beware.
Aqueela is brilliant, sometimes its hard to keep up with her but she will go over things and explain further if you ask her, HIGHLY recommend to attend every class and be attentive, shes tough but I dont think any other teacher is better prepared to teach you economics
She is the best Professor I've ever had. Very caring, will make sure that you understand the concepts. Provides enough material for you to succeed, but at the same time is very accessible. Would love to take her again!
One of the best Economics teachers you would ever come across. Clear and is willing to repeat explanations.
Aqeela is always willing to help, you just have to ask for it. There are a variety of ways to maintain your mark with group projects and in class exercises. Be sure to ask questions. Thanks for everything - Sheerjana
You do not need textbook if you study PPTs, handouts, ICEs, and exam reviews which she gives them to you. For sure you will pass the course with good mark if you study all these. Don not hesitate to ask your questions from her, she so nice and patient.
Did not like this prof. Tests based on mental matches skills instead of economics knowledge hence the no calculator rule for tests. Goes through information and questions really fast and does not post much info online. If you aren't familiar with econ, choose a different prof
Aqeela is the best microeconomics teacher. Her lectures are very interesting!
She is very helful and easily accessible outside of class. She responds to emails within 2 days.
Testing is not at all a surprise and based on Powerpoint lectures. Gives good feedback, is extremely accommodating and is passionate about the material.
Aqeela takes the time to answer questions and explain tougher concepts, and will adapt teaching/explanations to fit different learning styles. Definitely be prepared to work hard if you're not economically-oriented, she doesn't dumb down materials but is always accessible by e-mail or after class for additional help.
Aqeela is very personable, approachable, and patient. She demonstrates their dependability by replying to emails within a day with detailed, clear, and helpful responses. Her class lecture are related to experiences and country case studies which help contextualize theories and concepts. Aqeela listens to class feedback and executes accordingly.
Aqeela is really good. Everything for exams are straight from what she teaches. ICES help a lot along with assignments. Take advantage of course messages because she will get back to your messages. Shes amazing loved her. Attend class, youll pass :):). Its possible to attain an A+
Miss Aqeela is definitely one of the better teachers ive had,she is fair and follows her own set of rules. She covers every aspect of the course and provides you with the knowledge needed to get a good grade, She prepares In class exercises every class to make sure that shes done her best to try to make sure that everyone has understood the lesson
She is an excellent professor, if you want to learn something or clearyour doubts you can easily go to her without hesitation.
Best at Humber
Considering the difficulty of the course itself, Aqeela does an amazing job at setting up the course in a way that students actually learn. There is an in-class group quiz at the start of every class (it helps to keep you up to date). She's very caring, and she is always willing to help. 100% recommend over other econ teachers, from what I've heard
She makes sure you understand the concepts which gives the impression that she really cares about your success. She treats everybody with respect. No question is stupid with her. Lots of group work. There is an in class assignment at the beginning of every class where you are able to work with a group. Other group assignments as well. Awesome!!!!!!
Aqeela is extremely unprofessional when it comes to being a teacher. She will not answer any questions you have about upcoming assignments or exams, does not provide reviews, and is extremely condescending towards majority of the students in her class. She does not explain lectures properly and talks about herself instead. Do not take her classes!!
Aqeela is a great professor. She really cares about her student's understanding of the concepts and doing well. Her class is set up with a quiz at the beginning of class and then she walks you through new theories. This is a good way for students to learn and test themselves. Props to her for making a difficult course easier to understand.
was really fun attending the class, learned a lot she was available anytime when we ask questions would like to take her again
She is the best prof you can ever meet. So caring and respectful. If you are willing to work , she will do anything to help you succeed in your course. She made me like Economics more than i did before.
Very kind and hard working professor. I personally maybe struggling with the class but she offers help even after hours. My only issue, which is quite small are the not so short personal stories. Other than that she's great and I would recommend
She will teach you with great dedication and effort, but also require the same from you.
She did have some flaws (mainly with how she made the final exam according to classes level, not fair) but all in all, Aqueela was the best professor that I had this semester. Her class was good, not too much homework. Her grading was good, she always answered our questions when we asked whether through email or course message. Recommended.
Love this woman. she is amazinggggg
Such a gem. I love love love love heeeeeer
Very condescending whenever you ask questions. She expects everyone to have a high understanding of the content immediately. Everything in this class is group-based so if you have a bad group you're stuck. The weekly assignments and quizzes are kind of unnecessary since they aren't worth much overall. Teaching seemed like a burden to her.
What an incredible human being. <3
The lectures are a bit boring and hard to concentrate on.
She is honestly a really good professor. A bit monotonic, but you can tell she knows what she is doing. She makes you work for your marks which I think is a good thing. If I ever have to take another ECON class, I'd be sure to take her!
She is a nice prof. Lectures are a bit drawn out and hard to pay attention to but she clearly understands the material well and teaches pretty good. She is also caring and will give you good feedback, though honestly youtube videos are sometimes more helpful. Overall, you won't hate her.
I had her for ACCT1000, which she has only taught a couple times as it isn't her specialty. She really takes the time to review the course material and understand it so she can explain things properly. She is very caring and nice. She always reviews material from previous weeks and provides additional practice questions that are very helpful.
I will never want to take a class with her again. I did not understand anything all semester. I don't know if online classes are not her cup of tea but holy it was hard to keep up with her during class, she would get sidetracked, and she would spend 1hr of the class on 1 slide (usually learning objectives) just "drawing" graphs and talking over it.
She is one of the worst professors and she would not care a bit about the students need would never recommend anyone to be in her class. Very very bad and not understanding. If you can take any other prof than her go ahead and save yourself some peace.
Lectures always dragged on as she loses track of time ranting about her personal life while she taught us things that would not even appear in neither exams. Never once taught us diagrams yet we were expected to do so for the exam. Got more out of studying myself then listening to her puzzling "teaching".
Would of been a way better class if we were properly taught, and not force to pay to hear her ramble about her life or seeming absolutely clueless with the lesson plan.
Teaches at her best abilities, takes into consideration students feedback, solves doubts and gives marks.
Overall she is a good teacher. The macro course is not easy and was a challenge for me but she was always available to answer my questions after class and she answered my emails promptly. She is supportive when her students need help.
wonderful professor, gives real life example. goes out of the box to clear doubts. easy quizzes and assignments
Very relatable can bring real life instances into most of the course material. Very understanding teacher as well as gives easy quizzes and assignments. always stops to make sure the class understands the material and takes her time going through it to give as much information as the students need. I would highly recommend her as a teacher
She is very cooperative with students and help them outside of class time. Her teaching style is very good and make sound everything so easy.
She's great, explain well, don't be reading slides like others.
She's great, explain well, don't be reading slides like others. She gives a real explanation.
amazing teacher, would highly recommend
10/10, amazing professor
her class was great!!!!!!! her explanation is so clear, but sometimes she make it complicated but that's good.
I took her accounting class, the lectures was boring, but she is amazing and she wants students to succeed and pass the course. I would loved to take her ECON class but it got full so quick.
Aqeela is nice and fair, the classes were long but she tries her best for everyone to understand. EVERY question in the quizzes/exams is taken from the book. Cons: She asks people to be quiet and don't share stories when she talks about her family stories all the time whens she could be using that time to actually teach.
I genuinely had a fantastic experience in this class. Whenever I felt in the dark with the material she was able to explain anything in full depth. Great lectures, concise. Quizzes were self explanatory if you did the PowerPoints. I hope I have her in the future for other courses.
She is very understanding and is not a hard marker. Taking her again for macro. She is absolutely amazing!
The professor was excellent, and she is a good grader. She taught the topic really effectively, and as long as you complete all of the quizzes and assignments, you will be fine.
The finest lecturer I've ever had. She is an easy grader, explains the material thoroughly, and genuinely cares about her students. I would take her again!
Empathetic, Caring and understanding professor. Classes were a delight and she always took part of the class to find out how the students were doing. Excellent course delivery!
She is great Professor and help you to achieve good grades and knowledge. If actually teaches thoroughly and make complex topics easy. I am glad I had her.
when she teaches, she is a good teacher and makes sure everyone has clarification but when she goes off on her tangents she talks about random things about her personal life that loosely (barely even that) relate to the content she is trying to teach.
She is better than other Econ profs. The tests and quizzes are a little bit hard. Get ready to study
excellent professor with great lectures
Lectures are excellent
Had her for Micro and Accounting, really good prof, amazing lectures. I really regret not taking her this semester for Macro
Had Aqeela for Micro & Macro Amazing prof, if you attend all lectures and do your homework, you will be very successful in her class. She makes her expectations very clear and sets you up for success so long as you are willing to do the work. Wish all profs were like her!
Will fail you if the weighted average grade on your Midterm and Final together is not at least 50%......... Even if you do all the assignments with a high mark.
She is great. You have to pay for the textbook tho to receive the weekly questions, which I found to be annoying. The midterm and the final were on the computer and were relatively easy.
I don't understand any negative review for Aqeela. She sometimes does talk about her life, but she teaches clearly and makes sure you fully understand the concepts before class ends by giving 4-5 examples. As long as you study and do the homework, you're good to go. She's also very helpful if you get confused on a test or assignment.
