she rules~!!!

ITM - One of the best profs i've had. Does what is best for students.

Great prof. Love the energy and teaching style

Very helpful and interesting, would love to have as a prof again.

This class is like kindergarten, don't enjoy paying money to put a name tag on my desk.

She is fantastic, and all she's trying to do is have people explore their creativity and socialize thru group/class participation, the truth is we old farts (yes late teens, early 20's)are boring, plain, and social snobs by the time we hit university.

She is THE Best...for sure we do a 'creative' skits and have name tags, but it's all for a purpose. it's an HR class, names are important. anyhow, HIGHLY recommended. very motivating.

I can't believe it. She is a wonderful professor. She helps you out. And most importantly, she uses different teaching techniques. Discussions, games, Cases, lectures. She is great. Her tests are fair but exams, well, she cant' do anything about that

easy as ABC...and easy A ....excellent professor ...easy tests if you read it once ...make sure you get this professor

She is a very nice lady....sometimes a little scattered and disorganized but very nice all the same. She is willing to help and probably one of like 3 professors who actually knew my name and knew I was in her class...

YOUR FRIENDLY NEIGHBOURHOOD SNIDERMAN.. THE BEST.. LOVED HER CLASS, GETS TO KNOW YOU AS A PERSON, AND TREATS HER STUDENT WITH RESPECT.. MUST HAVE PROF.. ONE OF RYERSON"S "A" LIST PROF

very good prof! The class is boring but tests are easy

GOOD TEACHER!

shes a really good teacher if u go to class and listen you will do well, she is very helpful and gets to know her students

NEED more Prof like her!!! very helpful n easy going. respect the students n the test is easy if u just listen to her in the class.

Awesome Prof! Lectures are full of variety. She gives timely, sufficient and accurate feedback. She has high integrity and empathy. It is visible she enjoys her teaching and it rubs off on students. Take her courses!

Excellent prof. Very helpful and understanding towards her students. Makes the class interesting. Need more professors like her.

very nice..helpful...friendly...nothing bad to say. As mentioned below focus on stuff she talks about on class and you will do fine on the long answer section of the midterm and the exam. Also she is awesome at making topics relevant, fun and interesting.

One may get bored in class but put in the time to speak with her and all will be well. Seriously you can get an A+.

she's a very understanding teacher, very sympathetic to the stresses of 3rd/4th year students. i thought she was great overall, and the class was very worthwhile if you're going into the HR field. i'd look to take more classes with her for sure.

The class was super easy but her lectures get boring at times. Also, she gets quite disorganized.

No Comments

Will do everything possible to help you in succeeding in the course (which is a rather...dry subject).

this course is a lot of work. she marks hard & can be disorganized. hard to get an A in this course if she's teaching it.

She is a great prof. She is fair and understanding and will give extensions on assignments if needed. There is a lot of work in this class, but it's all group work which makes it easier. As long as you do the work in class with your group, you should do fine on the exam. The exam wasn't hard at all

Very hard marker on reports/group projects. Picky on what u write on reports. Must attend all classes or u will lose LOTS of marks. Boring lectures (reads ppt). Hard tests. Very tricky final exam. All this leads to a class avg of C-. Get out of her class while u have a chance! My friend had Prof. Genevieve Farrell & they haD a class avg of B+!!!

GREAT TEACHER. LECTURES WERE INTERESTING AND FUN AND SHE IS VERY ENERGETIC. TESTS WERE FAIR HOWEVER SHE IS A HARD MARKER. MEMORIZE EVERYTHING AND FIND SOMEONE VERY INTERESTING FOR THE INTERVIEW.

Great prof. Really enthusiastic about the topic. She gave out a very thorough exam review for both midterm and final. She's a fair marker.

GREAT PROF. VERY VERY ENTHUSIASTIC. KEEPS YOU INTERESTED AT ALL TIMES. HAS A "TWO FOOT RULE": LEAVE IF YOU WANT TO LEAVE, GRAB A COFFEE, HAVE A SMOKE, THEN COME BACK. NEVER POINTS LOST. SHE WANTS YOU TO WANT TO BE THERE. IF YOU WANT TO LEAVE, GO, THEN COME BACK. GREAT PROFESSOR, IF NOT THE BEST MHR PROF. TAKE CARE, BUT PAY ATTENTION.

Sniderman is excellent! She allows breaks all the time in class for food. Her own teaching style is not boring whatsoever. She mixes between social interaction and powerpoints. Do take her, as other MHR405 profs are not as good. Her enthusiasm toward the course/HR in general is very good, which makes you want to learn it.

Keeps the lectures quick and fun. She is very passionate about Human Resources. Always ended class early, had breaks and many group activites. Tests and exam are based on powerpoint and textbook you don't even need to go to class, but i does help to go because whatever she focuses on during lecture is what will be on test/exam.

One of the best profs I've ever had. She's passionate about the material and her enthusiasm spreads. Her tests and assignments are fair. You learn a lot because she makes it really interesting. I enjoyed going to class. I wish she taught all of my classes.

very pretty lady mrs. sniderman!!!!

great prof, also helps too that shes the author of the text. Very informal classes with interesting exercises that keep you awake most of time. She has a great sense of humor and brings her passion and caring nature to the class, you'll be happy to have her.

Cutest little thing ever!!!!! Everything was straightforward. I recommend her :)!

She is enthusiastic and passionate in HR. She must be one of the best Pro at Ryerson and always trys to motivate her students to learn. I spent so much time in memorizing the annoying theories in the textbook. Basically I dun like OB, but she is the best and awesome! I strongly recommend her!

those in the first 2 rows may get wet (she spits when she gets talking too fast) otherwise a great prof.

One of the best profs I've had so far at Rye high. She's respectful and considerate towards students. It was nice to have a prof that knew my name and said hi to me around campus. I hated the course overall, but she made it bareable. It is NOT a bird course, tonnes of memmorizing but Pat makes it simple and somewhat interesting.

She was the sweetest teacher i have had at University so far! She was extremely helpful and everytime you made a comment, she always made you feel good when answering! Go to lectures and you will do fantastic in this class!

pat was one of the most amazing profs ive had at ryerson. she is so nice and understanding, gives advice so you do well in her class. she tries to make her lectures interesting with the group work. work hard and you'll do amazing in her class!

She's Great!! it was a pleasure being in her class!

Let's say this, it is IMPOSSIBLE to feel tired in her class even when it's at 10am and you don't have any caffiene. Highly energetic and interesting and knows what she's talking about. However, she is a VERY hard marker so make sure you follow her instructions perfectly if you want a good mark.

It's her first time teaching OB 2 so it wasn't as hard as I imagined it to be. She was very straight forward with her expectations of assignments but FOLLOW EVERY INSTRUCTION. I lost marks on small things she wanted. Tests weren't that difficult. Sweet lady, will take her again in the fall

She is very understanding and knows what she's talking about. I don't think she's a hard marker; just follow the instructions she gives on tests & assignments and you'll get a good mark. I love her as a prof. This course requires a lot of time, but it's not a hard course.

The class material is easy, and the assignments arent bad. The group project and presentation is easy marks. Pat is really helpful and she tries to lay out the course easy for you.

Lovely lady. Her lectures are clear, and she has a good sense of knowing if she's engaging you or not and will switch tactics to gain your attention.

She's a really nice prof. Coming to class is not really necessary but it doesn't hurt. The class notes are more of a guideline to what you should study from the textbook. Assignments are pretty easy. Her exams, I know for a fact, are easier than most other profs in the department.

Shes a hard marker.

She is amazing, that is teh best way to put it. She clearly cares about her students and truly wants everyone to succeed. One thing I really liked was the level of interest she put in every student to ensure that they understand everything. I would recommend her to any student taking any HR Course. Easily the best prof I have had at Ryerson.

She's a nice lady but a hard marker. The midterm and final exam were pretty easy but the group assignment was brutal. Everyone in the class did badly on that.

She is the best prof i had. she is not too hard marker. If you study well, and do all the assignments, you should be fine. She makes everything easy so that u understand. And she helps students when they needed. She is also a funny prof. She tries to engage student to participate in lecture. And she is a really kind prof. Take her if you can.

The sweetest lady and a great lecturer. Review her slides along with the textbook and you should do fine. Recommended.

Very helpful and responds to emails quickly and interesting lectures. She is so cute and funny. One of the better profs I've had. I dont like how the class is bug but she does try to get to know you if you put your hand up to answer a question. DONT BE SHY.

I miss taking her class!! Now when i look back, it was a great learning experience. The seminars were fun as well. She's the main reason why i gained more interest in HR. You can really tell she's in HR because she made us do a survey about how the mid-term was and made adjustments to improve the exam. Thank you Pat! :)

I really didn't care for this course when the semester started, but it ended up being the one I attained the most knowledge from and attended the most. She is very thorough with the material and makes sure you fully grasp the concepts. The book is only useful for assignments as she says you'll only be tested on the points from the lecture slides.

BEST mhr prof. class content was boring but if you're looking to do well in this course- TAKE HER. she practically gives u all the questions that are going to be on the midterm and final! had class average on midterm of almost 70 while other classes failed. overall amazing. recommended 100%

Awesome prof. Really enjoyed her lectures... skipped every lecture before the midterm and got a C then went to every lecture and got an A on the exam. She made me want to take more HR courses. Recommended.

She's a really sweet lady, who has a lot of real world experience. She's really knowledgeable in HR. She is extremely helpful, and will try her best to make sure you understand everything. The exams are a bit tough, and the material isn't the most interesting. Her lectures were short. Textbook is a must.

Pat is such a nice prof and person. She has a genuine interest in her field and it is evident throughout the lectures. The course itself in my opinion was a rather boring one but she tried her best to keep the class entertained. The midtermfinal were based on her lectures, slides and textbook and were fair. Overall very good prof.

Overall I would say Pat Sniderman is a good professor who cares about her students. However she can be a tough grader. Definitely do not memorize the concept, but understand it.

She's a kind and wonderful professor, but she is a tough grader. Make sure you really understand the concepts so that you ace the assignment criteria. Participation matters and she takes note who participates. She also has quizzes at the beginning of her powerpoints (no marks, thankfully) but they are helpful for reviewing last week's materials.

I like our class discussions - participation is key. She makes it very engaging. However, she is a tough marker. Group project was very stressful and we tend to get a mark ranging from 50-60. Study hard for the final as it will boost up your mark. Got a B best that I can do since group project was very low. Attendance is also mandatory.

Pat is very sweet and dedicated to her job. She loves teaching and she takes it very seriously, it's only difficult when the students get talkative and she's so kind it makes it hard for her to get a hold on the class. Her grading is pretty tough, a bit unfair really when you see the criteria on the rubric. Assignments are easy when not in groups.

Sweetest prof you will ever meet, asked our class how she could improve the exam so its easier for the class. Made a lot of people go into human resource since she makes it so interesting. Gives non graded quizzes every week to review what we did last week and it helps a lot. Go to class and take a lot of notes you will be good.

Really good prof and the midterm was relatively easy but the final was impossible too much information and no clear idea what to actually study.

741 is a useless course, don't know why its mandatory for HR students. We had to pay $90 for homework. Pat however, is very nice and approachable. The course is all group work so hope you get paired with a good group. She marks a bit tough so pro tip: relate everything to the textbook concepts/theories. No midterm, and final is a lot of writing.

Pat is an overall good prof. The course 741 however is an absolute joke with heavy assignments and mandatory group meetings. If you have the choice between pat and genevieve make sure you choose pat! She gives good feedback if you have questions about assignments but certain things aren't given very clear guidelines

Pat is a very kind prof and tries her best to make the class engaging. Useful learnings from this class. However, the group component really sucks if you have a bad group since u have to spend the entire semester with them doing assignments almost every class.. She gives good feedback and is an easy marker. Easy to do well in this class.
