Professor Igbax is a great person and knows a lot about thermo, but he cant teach. I did not learn anything from the lecture and had to depend on the textbook and the homework (which he only assigned 3 and counted 2). Throughout the semester nothing was organized and the grading scale was changed more than a few times.

Professor Igbax is a good person, and he tried to make the class more interesting. However, he can't teach. He mostly read everything from his note. His handwriting is terrible. Throughout the semester, nothing is organized. he keeps changing the grade scale. He gives only 1 hw 1 week before exam to practice and solution to the hw 2 day before exam

Prof Igbax is a good person, but not a good professor. He puts in effort to teach the class + makes sure we understand, but he doesn't execute it well. He tends to read off his notes + explain it to himself, rather than to the class. He also has messy handwriting, + the class structure is unorganized. He has good intentions though

He is a nice person and you can tell he is trying but he simply does not know how to teach. He gave almost no guidance when it came to homework, exams, and the project. His way of teaching was realizing the projector did not work so he would literally hold up a sheet of printer paper to a class of 30-40 people expecting everyone to read it.

Overall, please don't take this professor. Unorganize class structure, no real syllabus or note, naming of note is a disaster, lecture is unengaging, just read off note while writing on board "to be hidden" behind monitor screen, no expectation on assignment from start, make up thing out of nowhere, change grading scale multiple time, messy exam

I have no noubt about Prof. Igbax's personal understanding of thermo and he's a genuinely good person, but his teaching leaves much to be desired. His notes are messy and all over the place, and in class explanations are filled with skipped steps and assumptions that students understand already. If you take his class, you have to learn on your own.

Professor Igbax is a good teacher and person. The tests are particularly challenging because they cover topics we haven't done in class. He tries to see our problem-solving skills while grading, and there is a huge curve in the end. You would have to self-study this course because there are a lot of material to go over in a short time.

Saanyol Igbax is a very kind person, but an utterly incompetent professor. The class lacked organization, basic proofreading, and any communication. I'd say avoid at all costs, but he is currently the only option, so prepare to teach yourself from the textbook. I am considering leaving GMU rather than take Prof. Igbax for Fluids next semester.

Grading included 3 homework assignments, attendance, and 3 tests(no cumulative final). Homework and attendance was 30% of the grade. Tests were graded based on effort, often resulting in a generous curve. Passing is doable because of the large curve but to understand the class, you'll have to study on your own time because the slides were lengthy.

Fluids is a hard course regardless of who you take it with, but if you have the option to take Igbax, I would highly recommend it. He provides a lot of study material for the exams, and he explains concepts clearly. Fluids is difficult so you will need to study outside of class, but he goes in depth and explains rlly well

Professor Igbax is one of the most caring and understanding instructors I have ever had. He takes the time to make sure everyone is following along and explains concepts in a way that is clear and easy to understand. He provides practice tests that closely mirror the actual exams and is always upfront about what to expect.

Fluid Mechanics in itself is not an easy course. However, Professor Igbax manages to teach it in a concise and easy to digest manner. His grading criteria is clear, his lectures phenomenal, and he is very understanding and responsive about any external issues you may have. Genuinely one of the most enjoyable professors I have had at this school.

Prof Igbax gives useful feedback. He cares about students and is easy to reach outside class. There's a fair amount of work, but it's manageable if you stay on top of it. Great professor!

Dr. Igbax fundamentally cares about his students, and he is willing to go to great lengths to help you understand the material. Some parts of his lecture are a little hard to follow, but on the whole they're useful.

Ok, lectures are kind of hard to follow but he wants everyone to pass so as long as you put in some effort and talk to him you should be fine. I personally understood more from reading the book and he follows the textbook so you don't have to worry about any curveballs. Really great guy who just wants to make sure you understand everything.

He is a good proffesor, gives the material organised and makes sure everyone is folllowing. He solves problems in class so we can see the procedures and tells us clearly what is going to be on the exam and what not. I liked the course.
