Prof.Verma brings enthusiasm into the classroom, and she is VERY friendly. I enjoyed her class because I can feel her passion for teaching. A few might find her lectures boring, and I believe it usually results from lack of preparation for class.To understand and appreciate her lectures, you must come prepared and complete readings ahead of time.

Professor Romila Verma is really professional and knowledgeable! I love all the documentaries in class and all her lectures are fruitful! Overall, it is an easy course and the tests are really manageable, just concentrate in class and study her slides and the required readings, it is easy to achieve good grades. She is so caring as well.

Mostly considerate professor, not the best lecturer. Her teaching style did not suit me at all. Slides can be hard to read and full of text, and her lectures usually involve her reading off of them. Test questions literally lifted off specific sentences from slides and textbook readings. Seeing fake reviews here make me lose some respect for her.

This class was such a good and informative class! Especially with professor Verma, she held a wine and cheese party online and I missed it because I was away but I thought the idea was just so cute and thoughtful. 10/10 class, just read the textbook and watch the lectures.

Dr. Verma is an outstanding professor who is passionate, enthusiastic, and supportive. She connects course material to real-world issues, provides valuable career insights, and even hosted a wine and cheese night to engage with students. The workload and marking are very fair, and it is a GPA booster if you complete the readings and attend lecture.

ENV200 during the summer was amazing with Prof Verma! The assignments were easy. The midterm and final exam was not hard and it was also based off the textbook and lecture slides which she used in the lectures, which made studying for the midterm and final exam more easier and efficient, highly recommend ENV200!
