Very difficult to understand. And cold.

ENGLISH...DO YOU SPEAK IT?

Doesn't understand sutdents questions. If clarity could be compared to vision...she would be blind!

Very hard to understand.... Puts you on the spot... I don't recomend her...

To put it blunt she is not a good teacher.

WaRiNiNg! Her english is not the problem. It is her teaching! She throws a bunch of terms at you & expects you to apply them. The definition of cost push inflation does not show me how to draw a graph of it and apply it & I never skipped a class

Talks down to students, trys to make you feel stupid. Tests are there to trip you up, not test your knowledge of the subject material.

Do not take her at any costs. She is hard to understand not just language wise but just in general.

She is crazy...Good luck trying to understand her. Completely discouraged me from even trying. Tests are completely irrelevant to anything learned in class or in the text.

Prime example of why foreign people are viewed as idiots. Her thick accent and stubborn nature (refusing to admit when she's wrong) managed to shoot my grade in the face. Her "extra credit" is not extra at all since she doesn't count it. If you get a 7 and 2 EC...you really only got a 7. Horrible.

If you have her GET OUT NOW!! She is a horrible teacher which gets confused very easy. She isn't able to answer your questions, and just goes on with the lecture. If you start to daze off at all, you will think she is talking in a different language. Very hard class to pass with a good grade.

This is a f* nightmare. I don't understand a word she is saying. Dr. Basu if you are reading this, you should seriously take some English classes and work on your accent. Nobody answers your questions, cause nobody understands what the hell are you asking. Worst prof EVER!

She kept writing on my homeworks that I will fail the class. I had to contact the CBA dean to address her grading policy. She is the only teaching EC0 372, so there is no way out. Good luck, you'll need it.

This subject matter would be much more interesting if she showed interest in teaching it. She comes to class every day with a downer look about her, which doesn't really start the class off to a good start. She is rude to students, refuses to correct herself, and uses "Apples" for every example. BAD

Every student in the class could teach it better than she did. SHE SHOULD NOT BE TEACHING!

What teacher begs students for good ratings? What teacher asks students to come to this site to write good ratings? Perhaps she wouldn't have to beg if she would actually teach the course. I wouldn't trust her teaching a bunch of 10 year olds how to read. Doesn't listen, "always right", AVOID AVOID

she sucks!

Had this class in the Fall of '01 Poor teaching skills and a very thick accent make for a difficult class.

This is a horrible situation for a student that needs this class. It's hard to understand what she is saying let alone understand her lectures. Deviates from the textbook, she claims her answer is right and the textbook is wrong yet she tells her students to read the chapters. Awful teacher, the university should really do something.

A very BAD teacher. I had her a couple years ago and seeing her name makes me cringe. You cannot understand a word she says so its pretty useless. If you want to pass then take ANOTHER teacher.

TERRIBLE! She was very rude every time I asked a question in class. I had an A on every test/quiz/assignment, until grades came out and I ended up with a C -. I e-mailed her and asked why, and she said because she didn't have a score for me for an exam. She had a sign in sheet that I had signed, and she said I must've gotten a 0! BAD!!

(Online Eco 201) This class is very difficult. Dr. Basu would often disappear for over a month without any of us being able to get a hold of her. She doesn't respond to emails. Also, she has poor english grammar and her tests questions are hard to understand. If you like to do well, I would not recommend this class.

Basu is a terrible professor!! She knows nothing about how deliver lectures.Has poor concepts, makes a lot of blunders in the class. Exams are very difficult. Exam Contents are mostly from out of her lectures and she is very harsh about grading. A poor professor!!!

Lectures never made sense! She frequently stumbled or made mistakes that she had to correct. The homeworks are easy because she does them for you in her office hours, but the tests are impossible because you never understand what she said in class.

She cant teach after chapter 12. Plus, we had very bad final exam.

Failed 10 out of 15 students in the program for no apparent reason, in the last lecture instead of giving review of the exam she gave lecturing of how students are not qualified for the program, she gave the exam earlier to the exam week of four days, some students had A before the final exam then they got F.

This was the worst professor I have ever had to deal with. She scheduled an exam over spring break which basically made me fail the class. She does not make herself clear on an online format. She does not respond to emails and ignores them. Also, beware that she might change the syllabus mid semester. Stay away from her, you will fail.

So hard to understand with her accent. When you ask for help it seems to be more confusing. Not only did everything seem disorganized but if you get one bad grade on homework or exam then good luck getting a good grade. There is little grading criteria and hard to earn points back. Worst professor I've had yet.

This class was rough. It was in the online format so you're basically teaching yourself except for a few online videos that she posts. The class had 6 quizzes that you took at home and then 4 exams that are proctored. That's your grade plus some extra credit. I would not reccommend taking this course unless you have prior knowledge of Economics.

Basu was never available to access for her students and she is not easy to speak with at all. She grades hard and only offers extra credit for certain situations. Very unfair and unprofessional teacher.

This is actually the worst professor I have ever had in both my undergraduate and graduate degrees. This course is taken by adults already in their careers and she treated us like illiterate children. Did not reply to emails, provided little to no feedback on assignments and my grades got worse as the course progressed. AVOID HAVING THIS PROFESSOR.

Avoid this professor at all costs. Professor provides nothing to the class. She gives you an awful textbook to read and all the quizzes, final exam, and power points are just copied right from the Textbook - Professor doesn't create a single thing to help. Feedback given was vague and unhelp, most times zero feedback even given on papers.

VERY poor professor. She only uses textbook provided material and CLEARLY makes this class as low input as possible. She get's angry if you email her at all and is disrespectful when you ask for simple clarification (I'm assuming because she has some weird inferiority complex). Avoid this professor if at all possible. Awful instructor.

Hard to understand and doesn't care about the students. Rude in emails.

Heavy Language barrier, just goes up on the board and starts writing with no explanation. Unclear of anything that is due or required to do. By far the worst professor you could have for a math related class. DO NOT TAKE

Nice professor, but very hard to understand. The lectures are very hard to follow along with. It is almost like she just goes up to the board and does example problems expecting you to understand what she is doing. She gives no explanation to the steps for anything or why the answers are what they are. Exams are very hard and are lockdown.

Is she a good professor? No. This class had such a heavy language barrier that it made me think I was racist. Class consists of lectures. All of the exams and quiz answers are on chegg. Every bit. I got a garbage grade since I never showed up. Major part of your grade is attendance. If you cared like 10% more than I did, easy B or A. Just show up.

Attendance mandatory, that's fine just go to class. But she is incredibly rude.not possible to get better than a b+ in her class with the way it is weighted. Unless you do well on the exams which are quite difficult and the types of questions are usually not discussed in class. Exams are 65 percent of grade and attendance 25. Another 10 is quizes

Doesn't respond to emails, says will only answer questions if you go to the next class. Attendance is mandatory. She filled in for our professor when he left mid-semester. Tried to fail me for missing 1 assignment, I had to argue my case to the Dean; provided all emails and evidence and was granted my actual grade. Horrible prof. Do not recommend!

She is overall a bad professor. You can't understand a word that she says. She also is very rude in emails. Not only that she said in class "vote for Kamala, if not exchange students will get deported". I found this very inappropriate for class, and for a professor to say. I recommend changing if you have her!

A simple course turned sour. Do not take it. There are too many tests and group projects, and it becomes a nuisance pretty fast. Be ready to pay attention because her accent is heavy. If you do not, trust me: she will know and will rant for a good amount of time in response to her frustration.

She's very difficult to please with group projects. Every class meeting was heavy lectures, sometimes we got out early. She kind of expected you to read her lecture before class and understand everything about the topic. She did make every quiz/exam online which was nice. I'd try and get a different professor for this class if you can.

Worst professor I've ever had. She yells at the class, doesn't teach well, takes off points for no reason and doesn't explain, and she's impossible to reach outside of class. You will be scared to ask questions by the middle of the semester. Do not take this course from her, choose someone else at all costs

My group turned in a project that was very good and answered the question. Professor Basu gave us a C- because our grammar was bad. Professor Basu only responded to emails if it was formatted the way she liked or she would not respond, even if it was very important. She was a horrible professor, take someone else if you can.
