I enjoyed his class. Just make sure to watch out for deadlines, meet his requirements, and you should pass with an A or B.
Mostly all online except for the first couple of in-person meetings. I enjoyed the class and the coursework is well organized. The website for the online textbook is really slow but it's organized to encourage active reading. All of what you learn is from the textbook. Asha really cares for his students and responds to your emails.
he is a great professor and i would recommend to everyone.
He is a great professor
We started off the semester meeting in person for three class room sessions, from there we were exclusively on-line. I initially had a difficult time navigating D2L and missed the first assignment due date. This was partially due to this being my first ever on-line class and being slightly overwhelmed with my course load as a full-time student.
If you like to be completely hands-on and do everything by yourself this is the class for you. I found that he was very nice but it felt like I could never get straight answers out of him and felt like though he gave me many ways to contact him he would not respond
Taking this class online is what was most difficult for me, but he always answers emails quickly and is there to help if you have any questions about the work. If you keep up with deadlines and have a bit of communication with him, this class is not extremely difficult.
Asha Lal Tamang is a good professor, I would say the work and quizzes were not easy but I tried my best with getting some things done. he is a caring person if you are behind on work he will send you emails to help you In help you get caught up on work.
Professor Tamang is very honest, student oriented, very quick in giving response to questions and doubts. I really liked my online classes during semester as the course was really vivid, detail oriented and easy to comprehend the context and content. I would highly recommend class to other students as it really opens up the very society we live.
This course was interesting.
Overall, very caring professor, straighforward class, helpful teaching process.
Asha provided crystal clear guidelines on how to succeed in this course. All of the assignment due dates were posted ahead of time so I could work ahead and stay on schedule with the course.
The material in this course proved to be useful and I found it very interesting. The setup of the course was easy to follow and it was clear from the professor how to be successful in the class.
Professor Asha Tamang is an amazing person and i will surely recommend other students to take his classes. His course is accessible both inside and outside classes. His grading is fair, and he gives some good responses. He has excellent and professional abilities, and his teaching style is awesome.
Professor Tamang is a great professor and I would highly recommend his class. He wants all his students to succeed and he's great at communicating. You can succeed in the class if you follow the syllabus and he even gives you extra credit at the end of the class. He cares about his students and that's the best thing you can ask for.
This professor was really good and help us learn more
Professor Asha Tamang's class was interesting and exciting. You learn a lot of new information and gain new knowledge. His response is quick to students if they need any help or ask questions. The assignments had clear and straightforward instructions. Overall, the class was simple and manageable.
Professor Asha is knowledgeable about the course. He doesn't seem like a man of many words but, if you can get him to lecture, he does well with presenting his course. I particularly like that he accepts late assignments from the textbook otherwise, I would've lost a lot of points. He is pretty laid back overall. Students must put in the work.
Professor Asha is very knowledgeable about his course and presents it with confidence. He doesn't seem like a man of many words. Doesn't do a lot of lectures /presentations but when he does it's great. I liked that he accepted late assignments from the text books which helped me a lot. You must be willing to work. No free ride with him.
This class can be easy if you dedicate the time. The majority of this course is textbook assignments and papers. His grading is fair just make sure that you complete all of the assignments by the due dates! There's also a few opportunities for extra credit, but a lot of them rely on completing all of your assignments on time.
Professor Tamang is a helpful, fair, and inspiring teacher. The work is through an online textbook and writing assignments in D2L. I think this combination works very well to understand the material and succeed in this course, but you have to be self-motivated. Professor Tamang also responds quickly to any questions. Would definitely recommend!
Dr. Asha is an amazing teacher. He makes learning the content fun and easy to understand. There is a lot of reading, but it's more enjoyable because the textbook is interesting. I would take this course again and any others I could with him. He is super nice and works with you to make sure you have the best chance to pass.
The content of this class was very fresh and interesting, there was not a moment where I was genuinely bored. The classwork is very easy and you will 100% pass as long if you try and turn things in on time. Professor Asha Tamang is very understanding so just let him know if something is up. Very clear instructions and grading criteria as well.
Mr. Asha Tamang is a great teacher who cares about his student a lot. He explains chapters easily for us. The way he explains made me love sociology even more and his teaching style is great also he gives us time to finish the quizzes in the textbook. Attendance might not be mandatory, but I think that everyone was happy to be attending his class
Dr. Asha is a great professor. He makes learning enjoyable and easy to understand. There's lots of reading, but it's more enjoyable because the material is engaging. The classwork is easy to understand. It's very easy to succeed in this course if you're self-motivated. Professor Tamang also responds quickly to any question and gives great feedback.
Professor Tamang keeps this class interesting through its assignments, and keeps you engaged through the reading.
Professor Tamang was a great teacher; he didn't assign a lot of homework and when he did, it was simple and easy to understand. I would definitely take this class again.
this class was the best class i've taking all year, the teacher was so understanding and intoned. everything was timed so perfectly and didn't put too much stress on the students. the professor was caring and answered questions pretty quick, the class was challenging but in a good way, in a way you can learn but not be overly stressed, recommend.
This class was really interesting and the teacher was very accessible outside of class. The readings are a good amount and the assignments are pretty easy. You get a lot of time to get them done (about a week and longer for assignments that take a while to finish). The book is free for introduction to sociology 1105-83. Fast reply to email.
super nice professor, understanding of students' lives, cares for his students to succeed, gives great feedback to students to improve, definitely would take Professor Asha again and recommend to other students for this course.
One of from instructors, Dr. Asha really cares about his students. You could email him anytime even on the weekends and he will respond to you. Gives great feedback to improve and may give you a second chance to fix your mistake. Dr. Asha will work with you to ensure you pass his class. I do highly recommend Professor.
Overall he was a good professor and I enjoyed the class.
Professor Asha is very honest in his remarks and is very helpful. He makes every effort to ensure that you pass his class. What I appreciate best about this class is how he communicates with his students; instead of emailing, he offers you his phone number, which you may text to ask questions.
Professor Tamang is very organized. I like how he is able to get straight to the point on what he wants the students to focus on in order to pass his class. From the syllabus to updated matters on d2l, he is always on top of it to make sure every students is on board to passing his class. I'm very thankful to be part of his class.
lovely class do you work and participate and check your work everyday if your doing online.
Gives good feedback on what you need fix.
Professor was extremely nice and easy to work with he made everything easy to understand
Professor was really nice and easy to work with made the content of this class easy to understand!
The professor is awesome and friendly with good feedbacks.
Dr.Tamang is very caring and understanding of students' situations. He understands that sometimes life happens and works with you to make you pass his class. Very easy to work with and helpful. The assignments are quite simple and have clear criteria. I would definitely recommend this course to other students.
Professor Tamang's class was extremely easy and straightforward with many opportunities to turn in work and make it up. The Professor is very understanding and will help you if you reach out. I 100% recommend this class to other students.
Ayub issak- Amazing professor would definitely recommend
answers to email fast and very helpful!
Profesor Tamang is funny, kind, and intelligent. However, the course itself was full of extensive lectures and many chapters of reading. This is not my favorite style of teaching. I'm sure the instructor's methods will perfectly please many students, but the lack of personal engagement was stifling.
I want other student to know that this class and the professor are great. It was amazing semester for me.
The professor was awesome. it was amazing semester.
Amazing professor
Very nice teacher and awesome at teaching.. would 100% take his class again!! :)
He was a good professor. He supplied his class with online resources including textbooks and other reference materials. He included student discussion intertwined into lectures. Overall a great professor but does have a thick accent that can be hard to understand on occasion.
Overall great professor. Does have a thick accent that can be difficult to understand on occasion.
He's a very understanding and caring professor who's concerned for his students both inside and outside of class. He's also informative and gives great insights from his travels around the world. These insights which also serve as examples align so well with the course lecture making it easier to understand and also enjoy the class.
Very organized, well-structured course, but if you don't understand something Asha is very quick to explain in a respectful manner. lecture based but you are given time and leeway to learn in a way best for you.
Lecture based mostly on the textbook, but not a lot of coursework and a very manageable class. Did a clear job during lectures.
Professor Tamang is a very accommodating, passionate teacher who goes out of his way to be easily reachable outside of class times.
Professor Tamang is a great teacher, very caring, and makes sure to go above and beyond to make sure you're doing well in his class. If I could I would take his class again. Great teacher!!
I took Professor Tamang's intro to sociology class in the fall of 2022 and had a pleasant time. I think Professor Tamang is very knowledgeable about his subject, which comes through in his lectures. My best piece of advice is to show up to every lecture! There are some questions in quizzes that were based around in class discussion.
Professor Asha was an amazing professor. He brought up games that made the class interact with each other and discuss what ever question he give us, which was fun.
this professor is respectful of their students and their opinions, creating a positive learning environment.
I heard so many great things about the professor. He care so much for students and wants them to succeed. however sometimes is bit hard to understand because his thick accent. but is he make classes fun and exciting. his quizzes are. easy for someone who isn't good at taking quizzes or test this was first class. I haven't got a below a c in quiz.
Professor Tamang was soft spoken and well mannered. He ran a professional class and was fair, heard opinions without judgement and fostered growing.
Dr. Asha is very caring and wants all the students to pass the class. The textbook is well written and not meant to be too difficult. The coursework was manageable and the classroom environment was friendly.
this professor is really respectful to his students and also really nice. this class was really enjoyable and flexible and also coursework was very manageable.
Asha was a awesome professor I would highly recommend him
If you can get used to his accent and quiet voice you'll have a great time in his class.
A great professor. He was always engaging and open to conversation, often wanting to hear our opinions and encouraging discussions. He had no problem clarifying any information and seemed very engaged during teaching. He seemed to truly enjoy teaching and never came across as harsh or overbearing.
The class was fairly easy. Personally I fell behind because I had a full schedule of classes that overwhelmed me. However, despite being behind in the material AND not having a consistent attendance. Asha, will still keep you in class. He will first send an email to determine if you can still be in class. So he is good at being flexible.
The professor sends emails out to students reminding them to turn in assignments when they're falling behind. if you're late on an assignment, he doesn't grade it right away, he waits for you to turn it in. if you email him, he emails you back the next day, which makes it easier to reach out to him.
This professor is great because he helps you even if you aren't doing well in class. I went from a C- to an B+ near A- thanks to his help. 10/10 would recommend
his an amazing Professor, he teached with respect and was kind to everyone in class,
Asha is a very laid back instructor. He is straight to the point and very long-winded. Although the class is very lecture based you are given opportunities to break out in small group conversations throughout the class to discuss with classmates different topics. The course material was very accessible and easy to navigate via D2L.
I think this professor is very well expressed in his teachings. He is also extremely understanding that students are human too. I think his class was well thought
He was a great teacher , very open minded and willing to discuss anything without bias. His class is a bit tough because of all the quizzes but if you take good notes and understand the vocabulary you should be fine
Professor Asha Lal Tamang is a very kind and understanding professor. Although it is sometimes difficult to understand what he is saying due to his accent, what he is saying is well thought out and intelligent. He does take a while to grade assignments, but he is fair when grading and gives constructive feedback.
Hello, I took Introduction to Criminal Justice and overall this class was great in understanding certain topics and how we can improve on them. This class helped me explore different outcomes of things and situations that we needed to fix or make better.
He was great professor he made sure he explained everything that you needed to know for the assignments
I had a difficult time at first with submitting paperwork but was able after a week to figure out. I learned a lot and my future is more brighter.
Asha always encourages his students to show up and do our best.We need professors that cares and he is one.
He is a easy-going professor who seems very chill. I enjoyed this class and did not have any problems.
Professor is really good, he shows equal respect to everyone in the class and was well prepared for every lecture every time.
Professor is good, he respect and every person in the class equally, and he's well prepared for every lecture.
Is lecture heavy and has a strong accent but was a good professional professor.
This instructor went out of his way to make the textbook available for free online. Highly intelligent instructor with a long resume of amazing achievements.
Great class!
I enjoyed this class because of the clear flow and expectations. This class was enjoyable.The material was engaging and the professor was supportive and responsive when issues cam
This teacher was a very Understanding teacher and I would take It Again.
The professor is well prepared for each class. He asks all the time if students have any questions or concerns about topics in class. He is open to talking about assignments and quizzes in terms of clarification.
The class was really enjoyable ,material was engaging and the professor was supportive and responsive any time.
I had the privilege of being a student in Professor asha class, and I cannot speak highly enough of the experience. the teacher possesses an exceptional ability to make complex concepts accessible and engaging.
Asha made the accessibility of this course convienient to anyone of every circumstance. Free online textbook, opportunities to work online with consistent efforts,comprehensive lectures and power points to go with. Each chapter has a short quiz to recap information with multiple attempts, this helped to fully understand the material.All good things
Whatever you might be going through in life, if it effects your class talk to him about it. I don't know where id be if he didn't hold me to a higher standard and made me push through the pity party I was having
very cool professor he's also really understanding
I would recommend you take his classes.
Easy to understand
Asha is a good professor and well prepared. Something I struggled with was understanding him sometimes, he has a rather thick accent. English is my second language so this was difficult but not his fault and overall a great teacher, good class and fairly easy to understand the material.
This professor is ver understanding, if you go to class everyday and just listen to what you're getting taught, there isn't no reason for you to fail. The assigments you're assigned are explained in class and also on your d2l. Overall he's a great professor and very understanding.
Dr. Asha is a good professor. He does care but being that he's extremely educated, I felt he expected greatness. Dr. Asha speaks 5 languages and English is not his first. So, it will be difficult to understand him. I will say if you do the work which is not much and be involved with class discussion, anyone will pass.
He is very friendly but can be longwinded and his lessons can wander off topic. He will help you if you need it and is approachable. There are lots of assigned readings but most of the quizzes are online so it's not too bad.
Asha is a good teacher, but he takes some warming up to. After the first class, I wasn't sure how I would feel about him. He whipped through slideshows, not leaving time for relationship building. At first, this wasn't welcoming. Throughout the course, he opened up more about himself and his teaching practices and he made it fun to learn Sociology.
He's a pretty good professor, he's very flexible with due dates and allows you to turn things in after the due date. Not too much homework outside of class unless you decide to do the bonus assignments he offers but if you just do the class discussions, quizzes and go to class regularly you are sure to pass!
If you sign up you will have a great time very easy going and wants you to succeed if you put in the work
Tamang would show us various presentations and videos related to the current class topic. he would have use discuss the topic with each other too get different perspectives. he would also have use do quizzes and courses on the honor app. this style was effective as Tamang spoke and explain the topic clearly and the honor education made it easier.
This is one of the best professors I had so far very caring and helps you understand what's going on in class.
"Absolutely love Professor Asha Tamang! He makes the subject engaging and easy to understand. Highly recommend!"
Professor Asha Tamang is one of the few teachers that I loved taking their classes. Very organized professor and an excellent teacher. Everything he wants you to do is very clear and nothing is confusing in D2L.
He was a great teacher. He cared about his students and would go beyond his way to help them pass the class. He's very understanding. I recommend taking this teacher.
The professor is amazing. I looked forward to each class. His syllabus was clear. He made sure to let students know what to expect. Discussion post instructions were clear and had a lot of topics to choose from. The lecturer genuinely wants his students to succeed. He responds to emails promptly. Go to class, do the work, and you will pass.
Honestly. Easy class, kinda have to read a lot but class is one of my favorites at MCTC
He had a lot of knowledge
Professor Tamang is great. I found his teaching style and the class discussions helpful in furthering my understanding of the chapters. Plenty of opportunity for extra credit and the assignments are relatively easy to understand and complete.
This Professor is great, the class itself is easy if you keep up with the syllabus.
Easy to understand.
If I was the instructor the one thing I would improve is. I struggled a lot with the language barrier between students and professor. It was really hard for us to know what was going on in class. Accents on top of accents are so hard. That was truly my biggest challenge this semester. The language barrier.
This course is divided up into 8 modules. It can be treated as a self-paced course, as long as assignments are submitted on time. There is a good mix and balance of assignments, reading, and quizzes.
I really enjoyed this class. professor Asha Tamang was awesome he always response fast when ever I have questions.
This professor is very kind. He helps when in need of any help he is always available. I have had a great experience in his class and would take another class with him if needed.
This Class was one of the best courses I've taken at MCTC. Classwork was very easy to navigate and complete as well. The workload was pretty decent and due dates were spaced out well. Also, if you happened to be missing a few assignments, Professor Asha would send you an email reminder to complete them and i found that extremely helpful!
She's nice and her work is easy to understand. She had a clear schedule for when she wanted assignments turned in and I was easy to work around.
I took an online class with him. There are a lot of assignments but they are pretty straightforward. Do the work and you'll be alright.
Professor Tamang is a very good instructor, overall. He is well organized and responds to emails in a timely manner. The information flows in the proper format in which makes things easy to comprehend. As a result, this makes the learning experience much more fun and enjoyable.
He is willing to help you when you need xtra help.
This is a class that I would recommend and take again myself.
The professor is patient.
turn in all your assignments on time and you will get extra credit.
Professor Tamang offers a really organized class schedule and give out really good notes, making studying a lot simpler. Plus, there is plenty of time to finish assignments and also he gives out extra credit for assignments submitted on time.
Professor Tamang's class is organized and engaging. The assignments are manageable, and extra credit is available for timely submissions. unstuckstudy ai has been a great study tool alongside the course materials.
Amazing! I love how patient you are.Your amazing.
Professor Tamang is an organized and clear communicator, effectively breaking down complex topics for easy understanding. Their engaging teaching style encourages participation, making the material more accessible. They're approachable and supportive, creating a positive learning environment.
Asha is very accessible to answer questions and clarify instructions. There is a slight language barrier, which can make it harder to know what is expected of you. Pacing is good in the class and I never felt rushed in any assignments. The textbook is outdated and often hard to understand (some information is given then not elaborated on, etc.).
There was clear grading, and the assignments were pretty easy. The professor is very nice and offers extra credit. Overall, the class was great.
Math 1005 This class had 2 teachers and we were only able to do the work with Asha online and the Math portion in class with another teacher. I had one issue in the beginning being graded for a test we were told not to study for, this test was supposed to determine what knowledge we already had so I think it was unfair to grade it.
The course was very organized which I really liked. The content, the announcements, the material and the assignments were clear. The content and discussion were interesting. The professor answers emails and give useful feedback.The grading is fair, and he wants students to succeed. The professor created spaces to learn through our classmates.
My class was a hybrid but everything with this part of the class was online, it's pretty simple read the readings he gives and type out the discussion and reply to 2 other students discussions. If you don't understand you can always email him. He response pretty quick and yeah we didn't have zoom classes.
I had a hybrid class so this part was strictly online. The coursework was pretty decent, he gave us readings and we had to type out discussions and reply to two other students discussions. Work was due an every Saturday a week apart. If you don't understand something he response to email pretty quickly.
Math 1005-60 Math for Social Justice: Nice guy who seems to really want everyone to do well & learn. It was the first time the course was ran, and it definitely felt like it. Sometimes makes you write more than the discussion really needs.
The professor is good at teaching. He makes sure there is assignments for students. I think it's helpful because it keeps others on track. The assignments can encourage others to complete it. I think there is growth in learning more about skills. I would add on there an importance by gaining growth through problem solving. And gets to read a lot .
Asha was really great about providing flexibility and reaching out to students immediately when an assignment was missed to offer them time to complete it. The class was easy going and straightforward, with amazing discussion topics
While I liked this class, there were some difficulties. The information provided for the classwork could've been more specific and direct. It was a little confusing trying to find the due dates and the correct material assigned for the week. Class felt like it could've been more organized. Professor responds quickly to emails and is flexible.
Good professor, even though the class was half in person half online, he made a good schedule so students were able to learn.
I recommend that you consider taking this professor's course. He is very approachable and ensures that students do not fall behind. The assignments are straightforward and manageable, provided you pay attention in class.
I took Ashas math for social justice class. This class is unlike any I have ever taken but in the best way; if you are passionate about social justice I recommend you sign up. There is a good amount of reading assigned but not too much. He does class does a good job at mixing math and social justice issues together, which I really enjoyed.
I took a hybrid Math for Social Justice course with Asha and the class as a whole was great. The topics were interesting and the conversations the readings sparked in class were thought provoking. Asha is a very good professor. He does well with checking and letting you know if you're falling behind in a way thats not too invasive or smothering.
He's a fantastic professor. He's great with communicating when he sees you need help in certain areas he will give you a chance to revise assignments and return them in. He's very understanding. He's open to answering questions if you need help so never be afraid to ask questions.
I really liked Asha's class. Half of it was online and is really easy to follow along. Really enjoyed the readings and the discussions we had to participate in. Responds to emails pretty fast and taught a really good online course for math for social justice.
Very easy class t takeonline, he is great with the way he explains things and gives instrucions.
One thing I feel that be helpful is to show students what questions they got incorrect on the quizzes. Overall great professional and I would take this class again. Fun fact I was able to work ahead.
Asha cares about your commitment to the course.
Asha wants you to succeed in the course and will send constructive feedback and reminders to ensure that you are successful in this course.
He is a great guy. Very nice, layed back, chill guy and he's lenient with late assignments. You can work ahead and everything in this class is very opinion based, but you would still need to have sources and facts to back it up. If you just do your work efficiently its pretty easy tbh. Lectures are also very interactive so if you like to talk.
Allowed students to work ahead including quizzes. No useless discussion posts or responses.
Gave us plenty of time to do our assignments, offered plenty of extra credit work, and explained things easy.
Asha Tamang is a great professor because he is not only trying to teach you his cirriculum, but is teaching you how to apply it to your life. He truly wants you to succeed and provides many resources for you to. He is not only read and intelligent but he has wisdom, and going to lectures you learn things that you wouldn't get from just a textbook.
He's a great dude. very kind, you should be able to do well if you listen to what he says in class.
Asha Tamang is a great professor.
He has great communication skills he is very accessible and wants his students to succeed he has great time management skills. He is very concise and organized he is respectable and punctual with grading our assignments.
The online course on instructions is very clear and the class schedule is well organized. I like how quick the grading is when you take the quiz and when you complete an assignment, knowing myself I am always curious about my grade.
Pay attention to the modules because even though it say module one which a lot of online teachers do their work by the week once you click in his assignments you have to pay attention to the due dates. It can be confusing so paying attention to that is very important. overall great. He a great person and allow you to work ahead i love that.
Professor Tamag is a great professor! His class was easy but filled with information. The textbook is really hard to read (it's outdated, dry, and doesn't give great explanations) but I did find useful information in it. Quizzes on every chapter but they're short. He is available over email and very accommodating. I would take his classes again!
Quizzes on every chapter, but short. If you do the reading, quizzes are fairly easy.
Overall I thought that Asha was a good professor, however, his teaching style took a while to get used to. At times it felt like I was getting a better understanding of the course material from reading and taking notes on the textbook compared to taking notes in class.
Everything was clear, concise, and straight to the point, which made it much easier to stay on track and understand the material. I appreciated the balance in assignments and workload. While it required effort, it never felt overwhelming, and each task had a clear purpose that tied back to the course objectives.
I would take this class 100 percent. The quiz are very organized. I love how you always reply back to my messages. I also appreciate the way we have zoom and how you make it easy for us overall!
This professor demonstrates strong professional abilities, particularly in creating an engaging and organized learning environment. Their teaching style is clear and methodical, breaking down complex concepts into manageable, easy-to-understand parts. They encourage participation and ensure that all students have the opportunity.
The syllabus was easy to read and understand, reading materials on the the online book are accessible. The syllabus has the quizzes and assignments with due dates and professor Asha always send out reminders to the students. This is a good way of setting students up for success so that they do not submit their work late. Thank you for all you do.
The teacher gave a very well-organized class that could be easily understood. Also, I liked the type of materials we used throughout the semester.
The professor teaching style was engaging and easy to follow, using lectures, videos, activities to keep things interesting, he made complex sociological ideas clearer.He explained complex ideas clearly with real world examples and encouraged questions.The class environment was open, respectful, fostering critical thinking and active participation.
He is so great doing his job, try to learn as much as you can
His class has more discussions with classmates. Good learning experience in the class.
He is professional. His teaching style is ok, the two things I don't like about his teaching style is how he can over explain things and make the class longer, and his notes are not always the same as his student's. His ability to convey the material is ok. His native tongue isn't English, so it is hard to understand him, but overall, he is ok.
Professor Asha Tamgang to me used a straight forward teaching. Do the work and get the grade. He also has automatic emails sent to you when you miss 1 assignment. At first I was like wait I don't like this because it was only one assignment and it notified my advisor too. But honestly it got use to it and it helped me not miss one assignment.
This class was designed to be effective with many resources to complete the course work. You do need to study and review the material, however, it was pretty easy to navigate making the overall experience great.
This professor was great! He will give you a heads up if you'll missing assignments or grade is dropping! Which is really needed sometimes :)
Professor Tamang is a good professor. His classes are to the point and are filed with great information. Professor Tamang is a fair grader and he is open to talk and communicate with students often. His assessments are a good mix of quizzes and writing assignments used to test your knowledge. I would take another class with Professor Tamang again.
His syllabus accurately reflects the course content. He is a fair grader and easily accessible for communication. His assessments, includes quizzes, writing assignments, and about a total of 3 discussion post. However, I wish we could see what we got wrong on the quizzes to help improve. Overall, I would definitely take another class with him.
Professor Asha cares about our learning experience. He makes it clear that our voice and opinions matter and the importance to speak it so that we can learn from each other. I thought that it was pretty cool that he calls his students co instructors.
I enjoyed taking Professor Tamang's class. From the beginning he was clear on expectations and would consistently follow through with them. He was available for support if needed and went the extra mile to seek out students who were struggling.
Asha is a very friendly Professor who really encourages you do talk to other students in class with different questions. It helped create a very inviting learning situation.
If you keep up with the weekly readings and quizzes, you should be fine in the class. This professor was very passionate and caring about sociology. There aren't any big tests in the class, but several reflection-based assignments where you had to show what you've learned in class and apply it to everyday things in life.
Professor Tamang gives good feedback and immediately lets you know if something wasn't submitted correctly or in the standard it was wanted in- I've had some teachers who weren't like that. This was an online course, so the D2L was incredibly organized and left very little to confusion. I'm so glad this class didn't disappoint, man.
professor Asha have strong ability to teach skills including lesson planning, assessment design, and classroom management. He break down complex concepts into undrestandable parts and use logical sequencing. Therefore, the lectures were engaging and easy to follow, and online resources were incredibly helpful. I highly recommend this class.
This was a strictly online class, so interaction was minimal. The criteria was clearly outlined and the assignments were challenging enough that they kept me engaged.
if we are being honest here, I can genuinely say that it's not a bad class to take. If you have never had multiple conversations with a foreigner or someone that has heavy accents, this may be a hard class to take. Other then that, very easy class, you could pass without showing up. Wish there was more in class activities or group projects.
do the reading and the quiz and you can pass with an easy A
I personally loved this class. I learned so much with all the tests and assignments that were given.
This professor was great. His class was very nicely set up.
Professor Tamang was great at directing the course and making sure that everything was easy enough to follow so that students knew when assignment were due and what order it should be done in. He also was very helpful and understanding when life comes up and interrupt schools for a second as well as making sure assignments and grades were updated.
He does give you time to make up late assignments. I do not like that his assignments are due on a Saturday.
Great professor and gives great instructions to the work. All the work is self explanatory and gives you a lot of thinking skills of the work you're doing. It makes it efficient for you to be able to be successful. I did not feel one bit while taking this class that any work was unnecessary.
I felt that my thoughts and opinion mattered to Professor Tamang. He refereed to his students as co instructors, he wanted to hear from us. All the assignments were clear and easy to understand, how to do them and when they needed to but done. He also made clear the ways how to contact him incase we did have any questions.
Professor Asha Tamang is an awesome. He is kind and quick to respond to emails which is super helpful. He is happy to explain things and make sure you get it. He's also really understanding if you miss an assignment and works with you to get back on track. Overall, he's supportive and makes the class a lot easier to manage. Highly recommend him!
I enjoyed taking this class. The work was fair and I learned a lot from the textbook which I applied to assignments and quizzes.
i enjoyed taking this class, the work load was fair and he was very great at explaining and and directing the course. Professor Tamang is also understanding with extensions if you missed an assignment. all the work i've done on this class was very necessary and i've learned a lot of skills i could use. Awesome Professor!
The professor demonstrates strong professional abilities, characterized by an engaging and effective teaching style. He has a knack for breaking down complex concepts into understandable segments, making the material accessible to students with varying levels of prior knowledge.
Asha was a really nice Professor with a ton of insight on the material. He was easy to talk to and it felt like he generally wanted you to pass the class. I heard that it was harder for people in the back of class to hear him speak, but I sat in the front of class and never had a problem. I would definitely take one of his classes again.
He is extremely professional and very easy to respect. He doesn't always mention due dates in class but as long as you regularly check D2L or the highly detailed syllabus, you'll remain caught up. If you do fall behind, Asha is very flexible with letting you hand in late work and will get the results graded within a timely manner.
Asha is an amazing teacher genuinely, he actually cares about his students if they care about his class. He actually wants students to gain knowledge that they can use day to day and I respect that so much compared to other teachers, when you can tell a teacher cares then you care about the class which is why I loved ashas class!
Professor Tamang wants his students to succeed and provides the support needed to do so. He is also pretty patient when you miss an assignment and need to catch up.
Need to be able to cite resources
Be able to cite resources
He's gives me extra time when needed
This professor follows the syllabus to the t, you do the work you get the grade , very professional.
very professional , you do the work you get the grade, also gives you a week to make up work.
Asha Is a great teacher he knows how to connect and interact with students who have ADHD like me. He is a great professor who is very down to earth and understands what students are going through. He is a very great teacher and my favorite teacher. I have never seen a teacher that understands students better than him. I would highly recommend him.
The online class has a lot of weekly assignments you have to do but her content is so well structured that it will be almost very easy to get through. It gets tougher as you go along though.
He had a very good teaching style and I learned a lot
Mr. Tamang does a really good job of presenting the materials and assignments clearly and concisely; along with the tests for remembering information learned, with the inclusion of interactive elements as well to keep students engaged! The online teaching style was also very clear and being able to get help efficiently and within a reasonable time.
Really helpful with questions you may have.
In my opinion, Mr. Asha is a great teacher who has a setup that is easy to follow, understand, and access. He is fair regarding late assignments and his grading and is also easy to communicate with and reach out to.
Professor Tamang provides a syllabus that he follows from day one. This made the class feel organized and stress free as no assignments were unexpected. If you have good time management this class is an easy one to pass. 10 out of 10 would take this class again!
You can tell that Professor Asha Tamang wants his students to do well in the class and understand the material. He really does set you up for success and organizes the assignments and materials on D2L in a way that's easy to find which is appreciated!
Professor Tamang's class was pretty straightforward. The workload is well spaced out and pretty easy to manage. You have to make sure that you don't miss 2 or more assignments at a time, and honestly that rule helped me get a good grade in his class by holding me accountable.
When I signed up for this class, I was nervous. But that changed because I had a great professor. It was easy to follow the course and stay on track. If you get behind there is always room to catch up. There are a lot of extra credit to take advantage of as well. If I were to take this class again I would definitely take it with instructor Asha.
The criminal justice professor demonstrates extensive knowledge of the subject and effectively connects theoretical concepts with practical cases. Their focus on active student participation fosters critical thinking and in-depth analysis of the topics covered. Additionally, they are approachable and address questions with clarity and patience.
This teacher was very kind and ready to help any student.
Mr. Tamang was a very nice and understanding teacher. He is more on the soft spoken side but still communicative. He would do quizzes with ideal turn in time and was very honest in his grading.
Every assignment in this class was straight forward. The class assignments entailed short reflective quizzes of 200-300 words, and 10 question quizzes. This professor is very responsive to emails, and not a tough grader as long as you do the work. As log as you do the readings the quizzes are simple.
I took Asha's Family Violence online sociology class and having Asha as an instructor was great. I loved his flexibility and the fact that he worked with me. I have ADHD and my kids are 2 and 1, so sometimes I need some flexibility with deadlines. Whenever I had questions, he was always more than willing to answer them.
This was an independent study course with amazing flexibility. If you are willing to do the work and communicate any needs or questions, any class with this professor will go well for you.
I want people to know that I initially thought that he was difficult. However, after being in his class I really appreciated his teaching style. It was informative on a host of issues and topics.
At first it was hard to understand what he was saying because of his broken English. As the class goes on it gets easier to understand him. He will let you do papers over if you ask when you do the assignment incorrectly. He will also allow you to turn papers in early.
The class was good, I work a lot so it was hard to keep up. The bonus assignments were not open long enough for me to catch them and If you miss one you can't do the rest.
I really liked this class. It was one of the easiest classes I took so far. He's a really great professor. Every assignment in this class was straightforward and easy to do.
Lots of extra credit opportunities, willing to work with students where they are at.
He is very knowledgable. I love that he has us discussing frequently among ourselves and also provide grading on time.
He is very knowledgable. He gives feedback on time.
Everything looks good. I love this class and the inspirational instructor.
Easy to understand and respectful professor.
He's serious about his work. He does fair critical grading, and he's always available through email. Each assignment was very straightforward and extremely helpful.
This professor was good at communicating with his students If they needed you need any help, he would show them how to do it.
I had the plearure of taking a course with this professor. The professor excelled in communication, consistently ensuring the students were well-informed. Quizzes and assignments were thoughtfully designed.
This class is great! The professor posts weekly assignments with clear, detailed instructions. There's an online book, which I liked because it let me work ahead at my own pace. Professor Tamang is straightforward, responds when needed, and doesn't take long to grade. I really enjoyed this class and would definitely take another with him!
My experience as a student under Professor Tamang exceeded my expectations for the course. Professor Tamang presents himself as a passionate instructor willing to go above and beyond to help the students immerse themselves in the material. He doesn't sugarcoat anything while successfully maintaining a space where discussions are open and engaging.
Professor Tamang is a wonderful teacher! This is one of the easier classes - easy meaning he is flexible and willing to work with you to get your desired grade. You still have to stay engaged and committed to your learning. His assignments and materials on D2L are organized and well structured, so you will do well if you follow his instruction.
Awesome professor
In my experience, I've found Asha Lal Tamang to be a wonderful and knowledgeable Sociology professor. The way that he teaches made the lectures in this class enjoyable, and easy to understand and follow through. I also like how we had good discussion's both in class and for the 3 major Discussion assignments we had to do this semester (Spring 2025)
I would 100% take this class again, it is very easy.. the assignments are also very easy..and the lectures are very informative..and Dr Asha is a great instructor
Dr. Asha was an amazing professor, the class was so fun and educating, i personally learned so much from the class and the professor. I would 100% retake it, the directions for the assignments were easy to follow. I would definitely recommend this class to everyone.
Lectures are very easy to understand and all of the in-class discussions was super good.
Professor Asha Lal Tamang is a great teacher who explains topics clearly and makes class engaging. They use real-life examples, encourage participation, and answer questions with patience. Their support and clear teaching style help students succeed and truly understand the material.
Great class
Professor Asha Tamang is a great teacher. He gives feedback on our submissions and offers extra credit opportunities to improve our grades.
In-class discussion was super fun for me and the instructor is really nice. He gave me good feedbacks which help me improve a lot.
Asha is a fantastic professor. From my experiences with him he's easy to work with as well as very understanding. I never found myself board in class becuase he always left room for discution. overall he was a great teacher and I recommend him for anyone intreasted in sociology.
I loved the class with asha i would take again lots of extra credit and emails you if you have anything missing he wants you to pass his class
The Professor Asha Tamang was a very good Teacher that give to me a lot of knowledge, he always give to my information so important that helped in my professional path.
Good teacher, he helped me in my professional path and give to me more confidence on criminal justice
The professor checks in on you to help you progress and gives another chance to submit assignments. Overall really nice and kind of funny. Would definitely take his classes again!
Overall nice and funny professor. Allows us another chance to submit assignments again.
Professor Asha is a really good teacher. His class was enjoyable, and I learned a lot from it. He had a lot of extra credit assignments and is a very understanding professor. Overall, a great class and I would take again.
Professor Asha is a instructor. I found his class informative, and I learned a lot throughout the course and he was very understanding. Overall, it was a good class.
Other students should note to ask a lot of questions in participating class. do tour own research. Most of the teaching was technology-based lectures through PowerPoints and our laptops his teaching stat was systematic was not that thorough when it came to conveying the material. He was always accessible and available to help
This professor is very clear and straightforward in what is expected in this class!
very understanding
very understanding, fair workload, and you actually learn in the class. would 100% take him again as a professor.
This professor was amazing honestly and was pretty easy going and very understanding. He gives you a lot of chance if you email him and do as you said.
Very understanding and supportive. I really enjoyed this class and learned so much about the social and emotional dynamics of family violence. The material can be heavy at times, but Professor Tamang presents it with empathy and respect. The assignments were clear, the grading was fair, and the feedback was always helpful.
Fair grader, heavy reading.
Prof. Asha is a great professor, this type of class just isn't for me. Math for social justice is a hybrid class and this is the second year the MCTC has taught this class. Overall, the class sounds interesting but was poorly executed and confusing for a transfer student who returned to school.
Class was half online, half unperson, with Professor T's portion being online. The class is a cross between sociology and math, with sociology being online. The online part is graded mostly through discussion posts and participation in class. Overall, I like the class, but it is a bit reading heavy.
Professor Asha's online Sociology 2115 course is very easy and simple to follow. He will not baby you, he will not coddle you. He posts all the assignments ahead of time and allows you to work at your own pace. You will rarely hear from him, as he expects you to just do the work, which is very easy to complete. Participation matters, read syllabus!
This class was hybrid and taught by two professors, Asha and James. I really enjoyed the Sociology portion that Asha taught, which was mainly discussion based and easy to complete. I also liked James in-person math portion, which was super digestible and taught by a really chill and understanding guy. I am NOT skilled in math, and he made it easy.
This was a hybrid course with the math portion in-person and the sociology portion online. Prof. Asha graded fairly, and a lot of the online work was discussion boards - which were fairly easy to complete. The math portion, taught by Prof. James, was easy to follow along with and fun to participate in. Overall I enjoyed the class.
Really nice professor, would recommend taking this class to other students.
He is a very considerate professor and wants you to succeed in his course! Readings were interesting, discussion prompts were engaging, & the course itself is not overwhelming but does require strong efforts. I would take a class with professor Tamang again :)
very helpful with any questions, wants you to succeed
This class was both a math class and a social justice class, I felt like both sides were easy and both teachers want you to pass, but I struggled to find the reason for the classes to be together I never met Professor Tamang in person and never got to know him, but it was a fairly easy class and not to much of a strict teacher.
YES, SHE IS ACTUALLY AMAZING
I found this class easy to follow and engaging. If I weren't graduating, I would take the class again. Sometimes the discussions were long, but I learned a lot about social justice.
Overall Asha is a good professor, I barely ever saw him in person but the interactions I did have with him were friendly.
Professor Tamang is a fair and respectable teacher, would recommend.
This professor is very strict and needs to be more flexible when it comes down to deadlines. This teacher is accessible within responding to emails.
Over all I enjoy the class.
This teacher is very strict and accessible through email or office hours. I would recommend turning in your assignments early.
I really like and enjoyed this class. I consider this class to be a well prepared class and I learned several things that I didn't know. Professor Asha gives you plenty of time to complete you assignments and quizzes on time, you even have the option to do them way ahead of time and also there is plenty of extra credit.
Professor Tamang is great at responding to and explaining class materials. He also allows students time to make up missed assignments and receive credits, even if late.
laid back teacher. Quizzes and assignments are relatively easy, notes and slides are simple so if you really want to learn something, you have to study on your own and ask questions.
Easy class, class felt like college level but so much where you have to be a 4.0 student. lectures very easy, professors gives plenty of chances for students to add thoughts and points in class. As well as many chances to discuss with other students. very understanding professor , 10/10!
All I need to say is this good and great professor and I like his lectures and everything about the lectures and I need to say to him thank you for teaching us this semester and thank you for helping me to get good grades this semester.
5 out of 5! Professor Tamang is very knowledgeable and explains things clearly. The class is engaging and challenging, and I learned a lot. Highly recommend! Overall Rating: 5/5 Would Take Again: Yes Level of Difficulty: Moderate to Challenging.

The content is easy to follow, and the assignments / quizzes are fairly simple. Asha is flexible with students in terms of assignment due dates, and I agree with others that it does really seem like he wants his students to succeed. I wish our class had been more of a collaborative learning experience.
The professor was very kind and understanding. There are a lot of extra credit opportunities, and the class is very quiz orientated. Assignments are not very difficult nor time consuming, and as long as you are doing the reading for the week the class is very light.
The professor was great! I loved the lecture and the discussions we would have in class. The assignments were not difficult and fairly straightforward if you're following along in class and doing the weekly reading. There were some extra credit opportunities, but overall, he provided a structured layout to be successful in the class.
Great! I am so glad I took this class
Tamang wants everyone to pass and for everyone to have good discussions with their neighbors. I cant fault anyone for that. Also speaks well despite English being his 3rd language, good job man could never be me. Good introduction to social issues overall.
Everything was self-explanatory and easy to follow throughout the semester. I enjoyed the content in this class and felt confident that if I needed help, I could get guidance from Mr. Tamang.
The professor is really kind and understanding. He didn't make the class hard for the students and the material was really understandable and the course load is very light. I enjoyed this class really.
The professor is so kind and understanding. The course load is light and the material is easy.
Is the best professors
The Professor is very knowledgeable and give good feedback. He also gives good clarification of each and every question and discussion.
Easy to understand and accessible outside of class
Great class! Professor Tamang is very professional and teaches in a clear and organized manner. He explained the material in simple terms, which was helpful.
Great professor
Clear Assignments, and discussion was encouraged.
If you stay on top of ur stuff you'll be fine. Very understandable professor.
Mr. Tamang was a great teacher and I learned many things from him during my time in the course, I would definitely recommend taking his classes if your interested in law
