She is nice instructor
I like her teaching style no doubt she is knowledgeable person
She is a very nice, helpful and Knowledgeable teacher. I would like to take another course of her.
Excellent Professor!
She is very approachable and helpful. She replied almost immediately to all emails. She was receptive to questions and always tried to be as helpful as possible. She is an excellent Instructor.
Excellent Professor! Take her class!! she would tell you what to study and where to do the review, if you just go to her class every day! A really easy teacher.
Good teacher but it is hard to understand her sometimes. You need to go to class each week since she does not post the powerpoint on blackboard. Goes through material quickly, but gives you hints to whats on the exam. Definitely go to her review classes.
Great professor, makes things very clear in class and is willing to help out when help is needed.
This prof. is nice and knows a lot about her field, however is the worst lecturer I have had. Very difficult to understand, and as a result makes it impossible to pay attention. Book was useless, all slides were word-for word copies (explains why they were never posted online). Easy marker. Not enjoyable to communicate with.
She was very well prepared for each lecture, clearly demonstrated a great knowledge of the subject.
The professor was very professional, in class she had a detailed plan of what we would be learning. Took time to answer questions
I felt that this course was great. I learned a lot, and felt like it was explained well. She knows the subject matter very well. I would definitely take another course from her.
This teacher is my favorite teacher as I feel that she has all the qualities that students look for in a teacher.She has skills at teaching, sense of humor, friendly, patient and easygoing.
Sajida is a brutal lecturer but a fairly easy marker. Just go to class, keep your head down and submit the assignments. She is a really nice woman and quite funny as well.
She conveyed subject matter well, explained difficult concepts, helped with essay organization.
She is very nice teacher
Sajida is funny- she will openly pick on people in the class. She guarantees everyone an A, and achieves this by using the exact same practice exam for the final. Although she uses power points, exams are fully based on textbook material. Assignments are all group based. They are a lot of work but good grades are generally awarded.
Sajida has good classroom management skills, very knowlagble and an overall sense of respect in the classroom.
Sajida was very helpful during this course. She always responded within the day and gave good clear advice as to how to solve problems.
Sajida’s lecture & lab were great, well organised & well run. She is a fantastic lecturer, she can make concepts easy to understand.
Great attitude towards students, very down to earth and accessible. Easy to ask question from.
Miss Sajida Faiyaz is very good in explaining the fundamental concepts of programming with examples in lectures!! Highly recommend.
Sajida is great Professor! She didnt just give the answers away She made you THINK. This was sort of frustrating, but it helped me understand the material much better.
Efficiency of discussion section. Addressed key points well. Thought provoking discussion. Insightful class and teachers. I loved it.
Very excellent. She made people think about the problems, and She was very helpful. Strongly recommended.
This professor was very professional, everyday in class she had a detailed plan of what we would be learning. Took time to answer questions.
Very intelligent and knowledgeable in the field of Computer and Software.
Worst prof I have ever had, her idea of midterm review is to give you a close book timed midterm for marks, not give you any feedback, then gives you the exact same midterm for the actual midterm... Her english grammar is extremely bad making what she wants you to do pretty much a guess. The only reason to go to lectures are for pop quizzes..
She is Very friendly, fun, helpful teacher. She teaches in a way that everyone understand. She know what she is talking about.
Awesome Professor!
Mrs Faiyaz was an amazing teacher. I had her for SENG 301 at University of Calgary. its hard sometimes to understand wheres she is coming from in her explanations. but if you can ignore her accent and actually pay attention in class, instead of being a cocky spoiled brat like most of my classmates. you will do good. exams were a walk in the park.
Great Professor!
Nice and Experienced Professor!
Sajida is a wonderful person and has a very uplifting personality.
Great class and great teacher. Would recommended t other students.
I had really been looking forward to this class but was greatly disappointed by the end of the course.
She is Excellent Teacher!!!!!
Great prof, explains everything thoroughly and uses examples. Also she is very friendly and good with questions so don't be afraid to ask. Go to the lectures and do the assignments and you should get a good grade.
The class was not helpful for my future career
Was not helpful for this course
Very disorganized
I found Sajida to be a wonderful person & professor. Because of her explanations I am doing very well in computer programming course. Sajida was great in that she didnt just give the answers away she made you THINK.
She did an excellent job of sparking my interest in a computer that I wasnt very interested in. She was also awesome at explaining things until she knew that I understood them. Thanks!
Very excellent. She made people think about the problems, and she was very helpful.
Made the class very challenging for me. The material was very unorganised and I did not find her to be very helpful.
Very unhelpful through out the entire course. I had to result to teaching the course to myself using the textbook. In the end, I felt like I learned nothing.
Not very helpful and very disorganised.
Excellent! She creates a welcoming learning environment for all students.
Sajida is one of my favorite teachers. She respects the opinions of students.
She is a good teacher and knows everything about her subject.
Very unorganised in the presentation of the material in the course. I struggled to understand what was being taught and how to compleat the assignments. In the end, I felt like I did not learn as much as I could have about programming due to the way the course was taught.
She has pleasant personality and awesome knowledge.
Very Helpful, Caring and good grading
I had no interest in computer before taking this course, but now computer and its applications are very easy to understand
The grading and requirements for the assignments in this course were very unclear. It made it very difficult to earn what I did wrong on assignments and how to improve on the next assignments.
An easy course, but the lectures were very dry.
Very unhelpful in the course. I would suggest taking the course with someone else.
Very dry course
Awesome!
The course sounded interesting at the start of the semester and I had high hopes. In the end, I was just confused and felt that we were not properly taught how to use Word and Excel. She was a nice teacher, but not very clear and organized in the presentation of the course material.
Not the best course
She is the best teacher and person. She helped me during my studies and also helped me find a job. I really love her.
Excellent Prof!
She is great Prof!
Sajida has a Good Personality, Deep Knowledge and Good Sense of Humor. I would like to take her other course too

She sets high expectations for all students. She is great!
What an amazing teacher!!! Super knowledgeable, friendly, loves her job, and overall just a cool instructor.
An excellent instructor! She has practical experience The best Project Management instructor Ive ever had Class was fun and informative
The instructor is very knowledgeable and is able to give real world examples and situations that help explain the concepts presented. I liked the entire course!!!
The topic material was easy to learn on my own. The professor was the main problem in the course. They were extremely unclear and unhelpful. They would stumble through the material in the course and become confused. I would suggest taking the course with a different teacher.
I love this course and instructor.
Very knowledgeable, humble, helping and enjoyable personality
Awesome! One of the best profs for programming. She really makes sure all her students understand the concepts and she is very clear in her teaching. I finally understand the material thanks to her after retaking this course multiple times. Very good programming proof!
Excellent Prof of Microsoft Office.
Very nice individual, But they were very confusing to learn from. If you have the opportunity I would suggest taking it with a different teacher.
Very professional, highly knowledgeable, helping and nice Instructor
Accessible, Enthusiastic and Caring
She always give you second chance to upgrade your marks. Easy and knowledgebale instructor .
VERY hard marker on quizzes and exams. Beware.. She gives out pop quizzes and is pretty unreasonable overall. You never have time to study or prepare for the quizzes as they are not expected and you can get lost on assignments easily. Overall not a good prof and a very hard marker.
Very hard marker. The assignments a very unclear and the lectures are confusing.
Great prof, really cares for her students. Explains concepts very well. Very fair tests and assignments. Will give you any help you need. Strongly recommended.
While being a nice professor they surprise you with pop quizzes that you were not prepared for. I have found them easy to talk personally with after class, but their organization of the course has been confusing. For a third level programming course, I would have expected more expertise from the professor.
She knows how to teach programming. I also like her energy and passion in what she teaches.
Worst computer instructor! She makes every concept very hard to understand and does not make an effort to teach ways to excel in exams.
Wonderful Prof., Wonderful person
It was a great course and instructor did a great job.
Awesome course and Instructor

I had to teach myself everything for the course. The lectures and labs were of no help.
Very difficult to learn about Databases from this professor
Excellent course and Awesome delivery
Amazing proff.
Very Helpful and Professional Instructor
Not a very helpful instructor. I felt lost for the entire course. When I would contact them for help they would ignore me.
One of the best Prof.
They were a nice individual, but not a very good teacher. The in-class material was confusing. In the end, I had to teach myself a lot of the course through material that I found online.
She is super friendly and flexible
She spends a lot of his time to make sure his students understand the material.
She knows the stuff and deliver nicely
Easy, friendly and knowledgeable
