Not a bad guy overall. Expects everyone to always be in class and you can miss a really important announcement if you happen to miss even one lecture. He also makes a big deal out of making small announcements online. Also there are details he mentions in class that are nowhere to be found on the notes.

Lectures are sometimes a little dull as most of the time he just read off the slides and annotates them in class. Tests and assignments are very fair if you attend his lectures and listen to what he says you will do well in the course. 70% of the mark was midterm and final.

The class is a bird course, where you don't learn any ethics instead you learn trivia History. But the prof is on another level, I can't remember anything he said about except of lecture slides and he tried to throw hands with another student for sleeping in class. Tests are based on slides. It's his first time teaching CPS412, I hope its his last.

A nice and humorous person outside classroom. But have a bad temper while he was giving a lecture. If you don't attend lectures, you will definitely miss out some important announcements. The group assignment was set by TA, and marked by TA. Avoid him or pick another prof if you don't like the style of his teaching.

Omar Falou is the GOAT. I'll never forget the story about the time he hit his head post-exam in the basement of Kerr Hall, and missed the bus to Mississauga at 2am and had to walk 30 minutes in the dark grueling Canadian winter. Same with the sleeping bag in the nurse's lounge, and got kicked out by security. Anyways, the course was alright.

Lectures were very content-heavy. The midterm and exam were based on the slides. You have to read the lectures and understand the concepts to pass. The content wasn't hard but just a lot to remember. The exam was easier than the midterm. During both mid and exam, prof said no questions because the test is all correct. Seems nice and angry.

Dr. Falou explains complex physics concepts clearly and makes lectures engaging with real-world examples. He is passionate, approachable, and always willing to help. One of the best in the department.

I think the greatest attribute of this Dr. Omar was that he breaks down concepts extremely well. He takes a complex/hard to grasp idea/theory and gives extremely well thought out examples that make it easy to understand. This made learning multiple languages which had different quirks easier to learn. I wish he taught more CS courses.

I love Omar!!!! Transferred into his class two weeks into the semester and it was the best decision I made. He helps you through almost anything related to the course. Omar made me want to come to an 8am class lol :). He's the GOAT.

Great Professor!!! I got 43 % in the midterm and thought I was cooked however I went to his office hours and he really helped me get through the course and make up my mark. In lectures he explains concepts really well and often cracks a joke or roasts a student.

Amazinggg Prof, really helpful. His slides were to the point and easily understandable. You don't need to attend the lectures, but tbh, they help. If you're taking CPS213 with him, go for it. The midterm and final were not that hard; if you go through the slides, you will be ok. best prof so far!!

easily one of the best profs at tmu. truly such a great teacher and made it possible to do well in a hard course; attending lectures is super important as he says things worth noting that you won't find on slides. also helps his students out (iykyk), especially if u make an impression on him so make sure to participate, show up, and make an effort!

Such a chill, effortlessly funny guy. Classes are not mandatory but showing up matters a lot! If you go to the lectures, the exams are going to be easy for you. If you take in the summer, just make sure to stay on top of everything because it goes really fast.

An absolute delight to be in his class. He is effortlessly funny and makes a course a lot of students dread, interesting and easy to understand. I was able to grasp concepts quickly and attending his lectures is not mandatory but helps A LOT. I wish he taught all my classes.

Falou Omar is the best physics professor that teaches PCS211. Although he can go a bit fast during the lectures, he is very funny and always covers content in an easy way to understand. To do well in this class, buy the WebAssign and do the textbook problems.

Great prof. Teaches well, relatable and knows when to take it slow and fast. Don't sleep in class cause he will clown you. Also, don't go to his office hours with a problem you haven't tried to figure out, he gets kinda mad.

I didn't have him as my physics prof but after a while I started going to his lectures, he is the best prof, he wants u to learn and wants u to understand content, genuinely deserves more than what he gets paid genuinely the best. TRUST TAKE HIM.

If you have the opportunity no matter the course, take this prof. In the courses I've had him he teaches he actually cares about the topics and takes time to explain things well. He also cares about students success if they're willing to reach out to him. His lectures actually make it fun to attend as he always finds ways to make things fun.

Funny professor, slides are extremely useful and were mainly what I relied on. Midterm and exam was mainly webassign and textbook questions with the theory questions coming mainly from his slides. Overall a very nice person, I just wish he went a little bit slower in class/actually write out and do the questions, he still helped a lot though.
