Teacher has a very very heavy accent that does make him difficult to understand. He knows the subject but teaches it in a way that comes out confusing. He does talk a lot to the class and does put in an effort to get to know his students in the semester he has with them. There are 4 quizzes 1 assessment and 3 written assignments and a final.
Absolutely refuses to respond to emails or lecture on topic. Our class has no idea what to do, with no direction on what we are learning. The syllabus is out of date, the submissions are bugged, the class constantly feels deflated and unhappy. He seems like a kind person but has no idea how to teach. Avoid at all costs, do the work by yourself.
He has a very heavy accent although his class is very easy. He will extend work if you've missed it. The lectures are really long and wont really understand what he's talking about but you don't really need them when doing the work for his class. Overall the class is very easy he just has a really heavy accent.
The professor was okay
This professor was amazing and informative. He made class enjoyable and interactive, just make sure to participate.
Whenever the professor is giving the lecture, he always has this confidence whenever he's speaking. The only issue would be pronunciation or accent but that can be looked passed once you get used to it and begin to understand him more.
Professor Janabi is really helpful, and answers emails quickly.
He is a decent professor, he just does more lectures. So, the work you will have to do, you will have to figure out on your own.
His class is interesting at times though it depends on what we're talking about exactly. There weren't many assignments and the material was easy to understand.
Professor Janabi is a great professor and cares about the success of his students. He gives plenty of opportunity to complete your work if you've missed an assignment or received a bad grade on any assignment. There is also very minimal work load, allowing you to easily balance with your other classes.
Professor Natiq is a chill and cool professor like the only thing you got to do is just the quiz and discussions that all. Also when I used to miss an assignment he would open again and extend the date so that I could do the assignment and he would let his leave early when he is done with lectures.
He is really generous with his deadlines and gradings. But do your work. Long lectures, but he enjoys teaching.
Overall, this class is very easy.
Professor Janabi is a very kind man but he talks a lot in his class. He will extend work if you missed anything. He has a very thick accent that makes it hard to understand sometimes but you don't need the lecture anyways to complete the class, read the textbook, it doesn't really matter since the class material is very easy.
He's a pretty good professor. He gives good lectures though they are long and a lot to remember.
He very straight to the point when it comes to teaching.
He wasn't a bad professor, lectured a lot.
he's cool just listen to him!!!!!!!!!
Great professor, Easy assignments, Allow retries, Understanding.
Very kind, very patient, expresses his concerns, always opening work when needed. Very respectful.
My government professor is amazing! He makes complex topics easy to understand by connecting them to real-world events and encourages engaging discussions. His passion for the subject really comes through, and he's always open to questions, making the class both informative and enjoyable.
This professor provides a great teaching style and allowed me to understand the course work well. He explains and makes sure everyone understands the material.
Very chill professor, would recommend to others, but he is very opinionated.
Stay well mannered and the class will be a breeze.
He is a very patient professor. He will provide multiple chances to complete assignments even when some students may not deserve that second chance. He is well spoken, he keeps workload at a minimal, and overall is a very easy going person.
This professor is a little touchy with most of the students. The way he does it makes me uncomfortable.
He was cool, his lecture was entertaining and informative. Not much to say, good professor. A little hard to understand at times.
The professor is good but could make improvement in making the lecture less boring and less lecture heavy
Professor Janabi is really nice. His work is very easy but his lectures are long. You can have a good semester with him if you stay on track. He also extends work for you if you weren't able to complete it. He is willing to see you succeed if you keep up with him!
His classes are mainly lectures and occasional quizzes. He is patient and allows second chances with his assignments. He is very understanding of people's personal situations and is heavy on class participation.
I mean he's a good teacher, but he's a bit touchy.
He's an amazing professor and although he is extremely lecture-focused, as long as you listen to his instruction, managing in this class/course is extremely easy. (He is also really well dressed.)
very cool :)
He's a very good teacher and love his vibe and attitude and also love him rings a lot there nice and would definitely have him again.
He is a good professor and cares about his students is really engaging and relaxed.
Professor Natiq Janabi does an amazing job at expressing his lectures. He's very understanding and will extend due dates for students who weren't able to complete their work on time. He also always comes into class in formal attire, and is a very written teacher. To sum up my claim towards Natiq Janabi he is a very educational & helpful!!!
I was genuinely engaged all throughout the course. He took the time to ensure understanding among all of his students. He broke down the information and attempted to put it into terms that made sense and stuck to us.
Professor Natiq is a very nice professor. He deeply explains topics in relation to theTexas Government and checks for understanding. He engages with his students to make sure they understand the topic being conveyed and asks questions throughout the lesson. He is a very nice teacher who teaches material well.
He's pretty calm.
Amazing proffesor he always knew how to teach and how to involve everyone in the class and makes sure everyone is learning well and comprehending the subject and made learning easy.
He's a good Professor, he has good lectures, sometimes he can be a bit lengthy on his lectures and hard to understand at times. But he has a really good demeanor over what he's doing and teaching. Plus he's a really positive and good Professor that I can actually learn from.
Professor Janabi is a good professor. He's very respectful and passionate about his teaching. He has good intentions and looks out for all his students. I appreciate his dedication to keep coming to teach our class despite the challenges my class gave him.
I enjoyed this class! He made sure we were following along with his lectures and gave us countless opportunities for our work to be completed. He's very passionate about his topic.
Good teacher
He gave pretty long lectures and some of the topics discussed were all over the place.
Hard to understand sometimes,but generally a good teacher. He actually considers constructive criticism and attempts to improve his teaching.
The assignments don't match up with the lectures so it's hard to do them and he doesn't answer emails much. Quizzes and tests are more based on the textbook than his lectures which makes it harder.
A good professor that's understanding:).
He a funny and chill guy
The professor is overall really nice and caring but sometimes he goes off topic. He only touches on some topics overall so make sure you read the text-book because that´s the main thing that´s going to help with the assignments.
Overall he is a nice professor, only thing that was a problem for the class is that a lot of the assignments didn't match with his lectures. Assignments would be based on topics we hadn't learned or talked about yet. I also had a hard time understanding him when he lectured which made me incapable of writing good and thought out notes.
The lectures are sometimes not over the correct topics, and the material on the tests are not covered until after we take the test. Just keep that in mind.
Overall not a bad professor, but the things he lectures about don't match up with the assignments so it just feels a little useless sometimes. Also I don't think his teaching style best aligns with the High school schedule so that isn't really his fault. I also feel the assignments aren't very organized in canvas so we never know what is due.
Thie professor was very funny and also patient
This professor is unorganized, and makes it difficult to know due dates. He does not go over material in his lectures that we'll need for our test or essays until after the assignment needs to be submitted, making it difficult to do well in class. The syllabus is also unorganized and gives no help due to incorrect dates and missing assignments.
I believe Dr Janabi has potential. He really tries to give us information and lecture us, however, he goes over lectures after he assigns a paper on it. He is not really reachable after class, and struggles to answer questions with the right answer, he can get side tracked sometimes.
He is a good person who is passionate about what he teaches. Kind man and very well dressed, only flaw is that he is not very tech savvy.
He's cool but not for me
He is a fantastic professor and easy class to have if you got him.
This professor was very good at teaching his material and he is very understanding when it comes to the work of your assignments.
Really understanding and flexible with his students.
Very nice and not too demanding, held lots of group discussing in class that were nice and fun.
Profe does very well in getting class to participate and get involved. Fun Class
Professor is very caring and professional, comes in ready to teach and it very passionate about doing so.
Not the most tech savvy. Quizes are easy. Most you will do in class is getting in groups and answering questions that have to do with politics. For the most part, the class is easy to get a hang of.
This professor likes to do a lot of group discussions and makes us write on the white board after we discuss a certain topic. This professor goes over the material by telling us and writing examples on the white board
This professor gives great lectures, you should pay attention and participate which can make the class run smoothly.
Good professor, not much work given.
It was mainly quizzes to look after, they were not too hard. During class we would get into groups and answer questions related to the course.
This professor is very helpful and understanding. He is kind and passionate about politics and a very kind individual. He is helpful and inspiring. Overall, he's a very nice professor and his lectures are interesting.
My boyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy.
Mr. Natiq Janabi where do I start, he taught me how to breathe, write, eat, and how to live. Not only is he an amazing teacher, but gives amazing feedback! Highly respected and wise. 10/10 class would take again.
Overall the class was relatively easy and not hard to pass at all. I would take his class again as the workload is not huge nor is it hard to complete.
he's great
Very awesome! His favorite student is Kevin Veliz! Easy class if you do work!!
Test and quizzes are simple and moderately difficult, assignments are graded with feedback. The professor is very caring and checks up on missing or late assignments. Lectures are very engaging and informative.
Was a very straight forward teacher, and has much passion into his work and tries to engage with all of the students. But overall he is a good / fun teacher to have
he loves them young
As long as you do your work, he'll love you and you'll love him too!! :D
I really enjoyed his class this semester because he made the lessons clear and engaging. He always took the time to explain things thoroughly and made sure everyone understood. His positive attitude and support helped me stay motivated and confident in my learning.
The professor was good he didn't really just read of Power Points, he knew what he was talking about. Discussions that we forgot to turn in he extended the time. He is kind and caring. I would definitely recommend to take him. Attendance is a grade so be there. There are two major exams but over all if you do all your work you can pass the class.
The professor was very supportive. He explained topics well and made learning enjoyable. He also made sure you understood the topics well. Class discussions were helpful, and participation during class helped me improve. Overall, a great teacher who cares about students' success.
The professor is easy to understand, and most of the lessons come out of the textbook. He gives a lot of opportunities to make up for missing or late assignments, and is very understanding. He emphasizes participation in class such as asking questions, answering, or reading, although it is not graded.
Professor Janabi is a clear and effective instructor with fair grading and manageable coursework. However, participation feels somewhat mandatory, which can be uncomfortable at times. His way of prompting discussion can occasionally come across as passive-aggressive, but overall, the class is easy and well-taught.
The professor was understanding when people didn't finish the assignments and he was kind to open them up again. He would re explain things when we didn't understand.
He gives us lots of chances to learn and do well. He is really understanding, explains things clearly, and makes class fun. Sometimes it's laid back, but we still learn a lot.
This professor did a great job
He lectures the whole class and you can tell that he cares about what he is talking about. He encourages participation, and makes sure you understand what he means.
He's a great professor who truly cares about helping students learn. He listens to opinions, focuses on facts, and explains things clearly. His accent isn't hard to understand, and he'll rephrase if needed. Tests are fair and align with the book, pay attention and you'll do great.
Very good and understanding about work.
Great professor, knows how to engage class and wants the best for his students.
Very understanding, he extends time to complete work if needed. However, the assignments he assigns have mixed due dates for the draft, peer review, and final submission, so it gets confusing. Nevertheless, he allows you to complete work and turn it in on paper. His class is reliant on the textbook and he emphasizes a lot of participation in class.
I can tell he knows what he is talking about and he seems to enjoy what he teaches. I would take him again and I think that the class is good.
he's a good teacher the class itself is not bad just that he expects a lot of participation , but the assignments are not clear enough the dates are all over the place but overall he's chill.
The professor's lectures are always thorough, he makes sure to go over things again if he feels like the students did not understand the first time. This class is really not that assignment heavy apart from a few discussions or writing assignments.
Do not be afraid to participate in this class as no answer is wrong to the professor. When participating it is based more on what you think, so there is no right or wrong answer. Overall, he is a great professor.
This professor teaches well, he's always asking for confirmation to see if we are understanding the lessons. He also gives a good amount of time to finish assignments and the exams are taken in class.
This professor really wants everyone in class to participate. He is very open to opening assignments or giving more time if he sees most students didn't do it. He will call on you randomly if he sees you are not focused or doing something else. But overall he was a good teacher he showed he cared for our learning.
He's overall a easy teacher. He teaches most of the class then gives a quiz sometimes, but let's you know before hand. Overall easy grade just have to participate.
The professor was professional when it came to looking at information from the textbook that we were reading in class. He taught us how the world and government works In the U.S. Overall I think that this professor did a good job at teaching this government 2305 class.
Make sure to do assignments on time using the correct criteria and being aware of the grading system will help you stay on top of assignments.
Overall, he is a very good teacher I have no problems. The only thing I would say is that I can't understand him sometimes, but at the end of the day I always walk out of the class learning something. The class is pretty easy just do your work right. He tries to hear the option of everyone. And he wants everyone to participate.
I would say that this professor is nice and in my opinion this professor gives good lectures and he understands if we had a difficulty with the work and would give us extra time to finish it and turn it in. he is a good professor and he shows that he cares for our learning.
This class is an easy grade but if you actually want to learn take another professor. He constantly asks for opinions but ignores your if it does not aligns with his and seems to have something against women. He constantly rambles as well and none of his lectures align with the course.
