No Comments
BEST TEACHER FOR STATISTICS. THREE EXAMS ALL FROM THE HW AND THE EXAMPLES HE GIVES @CLASS. IF YOUR SATISFIED WITH UR AVG FROM THE FIRST 3 EXAMS U CAN DROP THE FINAL. VERY HELPFUL & FUNNY. ITS A FUN CLASS.
Basharat is very passionate about teaching. He is always willing to help those that will help themselves. We love you Basharat!
An overall excellent instructor with a great sense of humor.
Great Prof.. Not super easy but is very easy and was very clear when teaching statistics.
He is a fair professor. In many of my classes he I noticed that he often helped those that didn't help themselves which was frustrating at times.
Great teacher! Keep the good work.
Excellent professor
He explains things very well. Do your homework because the material can be tough. He tries to make it easier. Attend class some test problems come from examples he gives out during class and other from the homework problems. Was a very great teacher!
Arguably the best math prof around! Willing to help students and is easily approachable. Do your HW and attend class because he does use examples from class to put in his tests. Wish I had known about him a long time ago
Is a super teacher. Is always willing to help in any way he can. He is the bst for Stats.
Great teacher! Very helpful, gives bonus points and really cares about students.
He is the best mathe prof. Always there to answer any questions. explains the material really good and gives you points if you do all your work
Very cool dude. loves to teach and help students. you can't go wrong with this one.
I took him for Finite and wouldn't have taken Stats from anyone else. Great teacher. Knows his stuff and is helpful if you need it.
Excellent teacher and very helpful. He works with you until you get the problem
So easssy only mad at myself for not taking him for Algebra and Cal
GREAT, GREAT, GREAT PROFESSOR!!!!! He is very interested in making sure the class understands before moving on. He is absolutely awesome. He makes you work, but teaches you what to do. His tests are not easy, but are easy because he teaches the class and helps with any questions. GREAT GREAT Prof.
i lov this guy. he is the best in the math department. he loves to teach has a lot of stories but he keeps the work going on with fun and entertainment
Mr. Basharat is great. He is helpful and is willing to work with the students. Do all of the practice problems and you will ace his tests.
very good teacher I would reccommend him to everyone!
TKAE HIM, TAKE HIM, TAKE HIM. EASY A+++. very funny very helpfull.
He is the BEST math teacher UHD has!! He helps you understand how to apply statistics to the real world. He is very fair, helpful,and encouraging. I recommend him to everyone. EASY A!
Great Teacher, very helpful, tests are straight from the homework problems. Take him!
I have had Mahmoud for every math course! He's awesome! There isnt anyone else like him! He's unique and helps you in any way you need it! I recommend him to everyone!
One of the best math teachers I've had. Mr. B assigned homework for every class, his tests were straightforward, and he was very helpful. I will definitely take him for other classes.
Great teacher. Cares about your success. Gives homework every class and goes over any questions. Very helpful. Test tend to be a little confusing, but he helps as much as he can. Recommend him for math.
Great teacher! I can't stand math and he makes it fun and to where you want to learn! I love him!
Great Teacher. Helpful and understanding.
He is the ultimate math teacher!! He's extremely understanding and pin points exactly what you need to focus on and how it will apply in everyday life...I took Math 1306 twice (and failed) before taking him and I totally understood him waaay better than any other professor!
Mr. Basharat is an excellent instructor; I wish that all UHD professors are like him. I’ll give him a high 5 for doing a great job.
GREAT PROFESSOR! LOT OF HOMEWORK EVERY CLASS THAT YOU MUST TURN IN. STUDY THE MATERIAL, 1 PAGE OF FORMULAS, EASY A.
What a great Professor. I took in the summer and he made sure you learned the material. If he noticed you had a puzzled look, he would go over it until you get it. He made sure we enjoyed and understood College Algebra.
Good summer course. Very interested in students progress. Will not go on until everyone understands material. Must do homework problems - exam questions come straight from them.
Great professor. Explains material and helps you understand it. Take his class!!!!!!
He is better than most prof. but he jumps around too much. Instead of doing Section 9.4 one day he does 9.4 and 9.5 then the next class he reviews doing problems from both sections. It's hard to learn one set of rules at a time. And he doesnt teach it till you get it. He will say "sorry I already went over it if you dont get it I dont know"
easy class. small easy projects. didn't really do much in his class.
Mr.Basharat is the instructor you need to take if you want to make an A. He would do anything so his students can understand and pass the class. Just one thing don't miss any classes and you'll get an A.
Okay my last review is still under review! This man goes too fast. explains the easiest problems and gives harder problems on test. He doe not give a review for exams. He will say too bad i already explained that. Not a good teacher!
Good Instructor. Explains well, but the test seem to go over much harder problems than what he covers in the class. He gives lots of homework. Not a good idea to miss any classes or homework....he will remember!
This class was so easy...you don't have to show up everyday--but it does help. Had to do a PowerPoint presentation, an Excel program, and a HTML (Web page). He helped out alot with each project if you had any ?'s--but you have to do the homework--test ?'s come from it.
Mr. Basharat was a very good instructor. very helpful and really wants his students to succeed. Gives a lot of homework, but if you do the work and attend class you will do well. Basharat goes out of his way to help those who need it. I got an A. Great teacher!!!
I really enjoyed Mr. Basharat class, this is my second class with him, and he makes the class interesting and fun. I got an “A” in both classes.
Awesome and funny professor! He is very fair and very helpful! I love his class!!!
This is the guy to take. He is odd, but cool and a very good teacher. Sometimes a little unorganized but who is'nt. I have taken all 5 of my math classes with him.
he is an awesome teacher, he makes sure you get it. He is a very helpfull person.
NICE GUY, HILARIOUS, TOOK HIM FOR SUMMER I AND MADE A B. ONE HOMEWORK AND SOME BONUS MATERIAL. HIS REVIEWS ARE NOT RELATED TO THE TESTS AT ALL, THE TEST QUESTIONS ARE EXTREMELY DIFFICULT AND IF YOU DON'T REMEMBER ALGEBRA DON'T TAKE HIM. LETS YOU USE OPEN NOTES AND BOOK ON TEST BUT PEOPLE STILL GOT BAD GRADES WITH THE CURVE.
I took him summ1. It was very fast pace considering its 4.5 weeks. Tests are difficult but he curves everyone. Strongly agree to practice homework on my math lab. That will help out a lot!! Even if you're failing the class, don't give up. He will work with you and helping your grade at the end.Good Teacher
Great professor for any Math class. I took him for all my 4 math classes. He takes the extra mile to help you make the good grade. Very nice and student friendly.
DO THE MATH LAB! That will help as well as get you some extra points. I took in Summer I ('08) and made an A. He's funny. All tests were open book and notes (just ask) and multiple choice. He does do a slight curve but the amount of points isn't the same for everyone. Doesn't require participation but I'd recommend it.
Wonderful teacher, very helpful. I know that I wasn't a good in math and he made it easy.
I had Mr. B for both finite and calculus simultaneously. He is the best math teacher out there! Gives you every chance to do well, open book & take home tests plus tons of extra credit and curves. He also is always available for extra help and tries his best to help you understand the material. If you try, you will do well with him!
I have takin his finite and calculus course. He's a great teacher. He gives take home tests and gives extra credit when you do MyMathLab.
Pssesses a great sense of humor but his teaching techniques/skills are very weak. His tests they are extremely difficult. He doesn't explain thoroughly and will only assist the students that are doing well in his class. If you are not good at math I suggest you find another instructor. Can't figure out how he grades. Has favorites in class.
Know your math b/4 you take him! Not thorough & not good at explaining. His test are EXTREMELY DIFFICULT. Nothing like the problems in class. Not very good at returning e/m & will NOT always work w/you even though you attend class every session. Do not recommend him if you are not a math expert. If you are good by all means take him.
He was great. Yes, tests were very hard but 2 of 4 were online. Explains very well. Final was optional if one had A or B average. Great extra credit with mymathlab. Can use notes on tests. Take this teacher.
Great professor, if you want to learn math and make a good grad, then he is the one.
Funny, but very hard tests! Heaven knows where he gets them from. Still needs help in explaining, but great personality. Some favoritism.
Great sense of humor! Teaching skills are good but you have to PAY ATTENTION AND INTERACT in class. ASK QUESTIONS if you don't understand. Homework on mymathlab is very helpful (will bump you up a letter grade if you complete all homework). Tests are hard so study for a couple days and you'll do fine.
Funny guy, but if you don't know your Math you will have a hell of a time w/his exams. Tests are soooo hard! Nothing like his review. Some tests are take home (online-which are timed) & are they ever hard. He will curve & give extra pts, but if you have some nerds in class forget about good curve. Okay if you know your math.
Absolutely Great Professor!!!... I never made an A or even a B in any math classes..but I finally made an A with him!!! He is the best professor at UHD..Take Him!!!!
He was the best math teacher i have ever had. He is nice, funny, helpfull and not hard at all. just need to attend the class, take notes, and do your online assignment, he is awesome.
Professor was challenging. He knew the material but his ability to teach to students questionable. Particularly disturbing that he would take great relish in producing a near impossible test to students not on LEVEL with what he taught in class. He needs to review whether or not he wants to teach as well as validity of type of test he gives.
Excellent professor! He stays on the topic till you understand it. Also be sure to do the mathlab assignments he gives, because he adds 10 points on every exam for keeping up the assignments on mymathlab. Take him !!
Loved him! Test are pretty hard but if you study you will make an "A". Do the mymath lab and he will give you extra credit.
I do not recommend. He knows his material but his style of teaching is horrible. The tests are nearly impossible, as they hardly cover anything that he go over in class. You are better off doing the mymathlab to study for the tests. He don't post grades at all. He can be a bit sarcastic, rude, and please don't email you will never get a response.
He knows his stuff, but not a good teacher. I recommend another prof. Do Not Take! Warning! MyMathLab is so useless! DO NOT TAKE!!
You'll have a hard time if you don't remember algebra. Take someone else!!
Great professor!! I fail this class two times and now with him I got an A. He goes out of his way to help you. Take him for your next Math class.
Great teacher! He takes his time to explain the lessons. If someone doesn't understand it he takes his time and explains. He does give homework but it's manageable. Class isn't boring time passes by flying!
AMAZING professor! He is funny and covers only important information. Make sure you use his test review because some the questions are taken directly from the review. He is VERY good at his job!!!
I highly recommend this professor, because he will give you idividual attention. Professor Basharat will not allow you to fail if you attend his class.
Test are hard. You MUST study for them, but Basharat is very helpful. Allows u to attend another class if you need more explaination,and he will even helpn u with a tutoring session...All you have to do is ask! he does have lots of hmwk but its all due @ the end of the semester...VERY recommended!!!
Mr. B does whatever takes to help his students understand the material. Must take him if you have difficulty with understanding the algebra.
I'm debating whether or not to retake him next semester since I got a D in the course. His exams are decent and take home quizzes EXTREMELY Hard. He lets you use notecards for exams but good luck with that. MyMathLab helps understand Calculus but it's useless for his exams. He's a good teacher just be prepared for difficult testing.
Mr. Bash is a great professor; He goes out of his way to help you if you ask. If you study and do all the assignments on MyMathLab you will definitely end up with an A or a B.
Very nice and helpful professor!
Funny, makes math fun, will help you pass.
There is no way to get 100 on an exam because there will be at least 1-2 problems that unless you are a mathematician, you will not solve. Notes don't help you because the problems on the tests are not the same ones you will find on Matlab, your book, or even examples from class. Be prepared to see calculus II problems on exams.
Study, participate in class, do your homework. Gives good examples, allows notes during exam, and use of calculator. Beware of difficult take home tests on my math lab. Good teacher, can be sarcastic not recommended for the easily offended. Would definitely recommend taking his class and I would take STATS with him if he taught it. Very good prof
He doesn't care if you are passing or not. does not offer tutoring. don't take him!!!! closes reviews the day before exam. exams are nothing like the mathlab homework.
The best professor!!! Does an excellent job at teaching and is very clear. Make sure you pay attention in class and do the homework and you will have no problem getting an A :)
He knows the material he teaches well but he will deviate from subject to talk about other stuff not related to class. His exams are HARD and include material not covered in class so the flashcards and homework notes he allows are sometimes useless. He will give you a vague answer if you ask about your grade. Dry humor. I do not recommend at all.
Must put in the work for the grade. Clear lectures, lots of examples, offers help when you need it. LOTS of homework (majority online). Reviews what is not on the test.
