I am a Real Estate student and have no interest in finance, money markets, capital markets or anything of the sort. Adomait, however, provides great information as she is a fountain of knowledge. She presents ideas visually with graphs, which are appealing - but can be unhelpful to some. She knows her stuff and she makes my experience easier.

She expects us to understand everything that she's saying even though she skips major components when she's teaching. For example, she will draw a graph and add random numbers and you won't know for what they stand for and where they really came from. Had a hard time following her lectures and was more confused when I would attend her classes.

I don't know why everyone complains about her. This is university, her job isn't to spoon feed it to you. Yeah you have to read the textbook and work. She is really smart and her lectures are interesting, sometimes it takes you a few minutes to follow along but she asks if anyone has questions. Prepare to work hard and you'll get a good grade.

Not a fan. She teaches material her way or the highway, and if you don't understand it (which is common with her style), that's too damn bad. I requested notes in advance on a guest speaker's presentation that I would miss due to major surgery and she replied, and I quote: "that's a shame, but it's not my problem". Just awful.

If you dont have to have Adomait, dont. She would be an amazing upper-year prof, but the way she explains things to first year econ students is extremely confusing. Tests are so hard, but you can make up for it with easy weekly quizzes and short essay (marked by students). Lectures are confusing, reading the text is more effective.

Adomait is a good prof. Yes, this class is "hard" but that's not because she is a bad prof, it is just due to the actual context of the course. Econ is a difficult subject no matter who teaches it and personally, I think Adomait does a great job at doing it. She is clear in her lectures and she is always open to questions and re-explaining.

At the start of ECON1050, I did not care for Adomait whatsoever. I thought she was very pretentious and rude. However once you get past her quirks you quickly see that she is a brilliant economist and lecturer. I certainly had to work at her class, but I arguably learned more in her course than any other first year business course I took.

Exams do not at all reflect the level of difficulty of the content learned in class. All mock tests given are relatively useless as they are much easier than those that are actually given by Eveline and just provide you with a false sense of confidence while studying. Eveline also forces purchase of her book although it is rarely used.

You have to buy a book (which is a poor summary of the textbook) she wrote to complete assignments for these classes, if that's an indicator to her demeanour as a prof. Although she does make an effort, it's fairly minimal and I personally opted to read the book instead of going to lectures and did pretty well in these classes, so you can do that.

A really interesting course and she was super passionate about what she was teaching.

At the beginning of micro, I was petrified of her weird smile. At the end of macro, I'm still scared of it. All kidding aside, once you accept she's a little weird, you realize that she's an amazing prof. She explains content thoroughly, and frequently checks to make sure everyone is okay. I wish she'd teach a bit faster, but I'm weird like that.

Evie bases her lectures on the assumption that you've read the chapters first. If you don't do the readings beforehand, you might as well skip class because you won't understand a single thing. She doesn't take time to recap what was learned, but instead enhance the chapters from the book. Midterms and finals are extremely difficult, beware.

hard class, no lecture slides, just draws a million things and expects us to know what it all means. USE THE TEXTBOOK to teach yourself it really saved me and is much clearer. Also try to get 100 on all quizzes they are unlimited attempts and is worth 10% of grade can help a lot. Do not need to read her entire book she just wants you to. goodluck

econ is hard, she creates detailed overheads in class which helps to avoid information overload. found her handbook interesting and a different and useful perspective to think of the WHY in econ opposed to WHAT alone, encourages thinking. constantly moving, will make time to help in office hours or after class. takes and answers questions.

Adomait solely uses graphs and pictures to teach along side oral comments.

The lectures were not useful at all since it was all scribbling graphs, with 90 multiple choice questions on both mid term and final in total of 80% of the course which seems rediculous especially for first semester students coming from high school, but honestly in a way I guess it is good since it will help us become successful for later semesters

Seems like a nice person, was always helpful (extensions, technical difficulties), would crack a few jokes during lectures.

Overall Adomait isn't as bad as people say as long as you put in the work. She provides a lot of assignment oppurtunities to do well. do MELs every week until you get 100% (unlimited attempts), and put effort into paper since it boosts you and will balence out exams (which are hard).

The worst prof, lectures make absolutely no sense. draws random graphs and does not explain. You have to buy her personal book with the textbook, which is completely useless. Your grade is basically based on the midterm and final which are near impossible even with doing all the readings and practice questions. Save yourself and take econ online.

If you have to take her course use the study plan!!! It's the best tool when it comes to studying for her midterms and final. Her text book that she makes you buy is utterly useless so don't waste your time reading it, and if you don't have to take her, DONT! She prides herself on making her class average as low as possible!

She's is a terrible teacher overall but if you want solid advice before you take her as a new student for micro economics read the chapter she is teaching that class beforehand because otherwise you will be so confused you might as well not show up.

Definitely the worst teacher in the whole university, justifies her mediocrity by saying that economics is supposedly a “killer chem course” even though everyone knows that she shouldn't teach here, but the management for some reason doesn't care. If you wanna pass this course don't waste time going to lectures, just read the textbook.
