You hear so much bad things about statistics, but i was very lucky to have her as my teacher. she teaches from the text book as well as take the initiative to make extra chapter questions for students!
overall a very good teacher. her notes are great, she is very helpful and nice. i recommend taking her classes. you can learn a lot.

SHE IS THE BEST TEACHER IN SENECA AND I'M SERIOUS, I WISH SHE TEACHES OTHER SUBJECTS TOO, BECAUSE SHE MAKES YOU UNDERSTAND THE WORK SO EVEN IF THE TESTS ARE HARD IT WILL SEEM EASY BECAUSE YOU KNOW THE STUFF, ALSO SHE IS A VERY CARING TEACHER. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK IN TEACHING.

She is the best teacher,easy marker.She helps a lot.
Great teacher. She is very nice and helpful.All our class mark her outstanding on our school sv. She can teach you and help you achieve A+.
Svetlana has a good heart and high expectations. She loves statistics and wants to help all her students to love it too. She pushes students to always do better. She works through examples from extra handouts as well going step-by-step through homework problems. Sometimes she goes too fast and is dissapointed when students ask her to slow down.
Great teacher, she is so helpful. She does have a bit of an accent, but not strong enough that you can't understand her. Take this class if you want to pass.
She is a very thorogh and good teacher. Her teaching skills are calculator based. She encourages you to ask questions and makes time if you want to meet with her individually. She has a bit of an accent but most of all I found her to be freindly and funny.
She is a wonderful teacher but goes too fast at time. However she is always willing to help and explains things so well. the only problem is she has a strong russian accent so you have to listen really good in her class to understand at times.
She is a very good teacher. She explains all materials very well. During the class she gives very useful lectures.
You can not find a prof. better than Svetlana. She explanes everything very clear and cares about students a lot. QNM222 was quite easy for me just because of the great teacher.
Moves fast, but overall great teacher. Before going into this course, I heard many students have failed this course due to the amount of workload and difficulties, but I couldn't have asked for a better teacher.
Was kinda difficult to understand through her thick accent, but she's a very helpful teacher who seems to be greatly affected by your success or failure.
Cant understand the way she talks, she has a HUGE accent and sometimes its hard to understand. She screams when she talks sometimes which can be a lil freaky..if you not amazing in math, dont taker svetlana, you will just struggle too much, i dont see how theres soo many positives about her, there many better qnm222 teachers...dont take her
Pretty good!!
Simply the best, Svetlana is everything you will want in a teacher/professor.She give exellent examples, prepare for u reviews for tests n quizez, and is very helpfull by teaching the directly relevant material for the course.She cares about her students
first of all, there is like 6 quiz and 2 excel project and 2 exams for this course. she will subtract your project marks if you get it wrong and marks extremely hard. And the examples she teach you during class is totally different than the question on the quizes she gives out. I recommend you stay away from her if your not good with excel!
Guys! trust me, she is a very good teacher. even though she has a russian accent her explanations of the material are crystal clear and understandable! if u came to seneca to get knowledge, then go ahead and take her class!!!
Awsome professor. QNM 222 is little confusing course but she will make it very easy. Its important to attend all her classes.
BEST TEACHER!!!!!!!!!! EXPLAINS SO CLEARLY!!!!!!!!! HER REVIEWS ARE VERY HELPFUL!!!!!!!!! DONT MISS A CLASS OR YOU WILL FALL BEHIND!!!!! EASY A!!!!!!
If you get her, you are lucky. She makes complex things seem much easer. Although she doesn’t take attendance, don’t skip her classes, and you’ll be fine. We definitely need more profs like her.
Highly Recommended Professor!Explains everything clearly!!!
She's the bes teacher in Math!
GREAT TEACHER! VERY HELPFUL NOTES! VERY CLEAR EXPLANATION!
Just recommended.a lot of work but clear $ good explanations. makes dificulties very easy.Great knowledge of subject.
Excellent professor. Explains everything very clearly; you don't even need to read a book with her notes. Gives very helpful review. Strongly reccomend her as a professor!
she taught the precourse for math 1710 @ yorku. She is the most helpful prof ever! I love her! teaches in a way that helps us learn! asks us questions to keep us in track and pay attention. prepares you well!!
An amazing professor. Extremely intelligent, funny and helpful. Prepares you well. Her accent might take awhile to get used to. Definitely recommended.
Excellent prof. Explains concepts very clearly. I highly recommend her.
She is helpful.She tries her best to let you understand.
choose Svetlana, you will not regret
Amazing teacher... teaches all the concepts in depth so you know what you're doing and not just doing it. The best way to describe her teaching skills is that she could teach an actual monkey math.
If you're taking any math course, make sure you get Prof. Nekhai. I like what one of you commented - you will not regret taking her class. Her humor takes a little while to understand, but she is one of the funniest teaching in Seneca.
She is a good teacher. If you take the notes she gives, you will understand without reading the text book. She explains every point clearly.
she is a good teacher. follow her class, you will get high mark.
Very clear and helpful. Work well, come to all classes and u will get knowledge and a great mark))
she is helpful, especially for second language students. she write down very thing on the blackboard.
she is the best professor ever!she makes test and midterm easy! And explain all the stuffs. If you take note in class, and all your midterm and final will be fine!U should take her class!
She is such an amazing professor.I enjoyed every minutes of her class. I wish I had QNM 444 with her. She explaines everything clearly. She is very well organized.I learned everything in the class room. No need to open the book. Everything is absolutely clear. She is the best professor.
She is the best teacher I have ever had at Seneca College. She teaches the material and the contents of the course at its very best. I highly recommend any student to choose her over any other professor.
Her education is impressive, she teaches clearly, just the accent makes it hard to understand (just a little). Fair grader, clarifies important areas well. Great overall!
She is definitely a good professor. Her understanding and explanations on the subject are excellent though sometimes, she makes things harder than it should be. It just might be due to her accent. Overall, she is a great person and reasonable with tests and quizzes. P.S. Who gave her a "hotness" rating?! She's a good prof but she's old!
First off shes a really good teacher & i absolutly hated stats & just did not get it.She really explains everything clearly,if you dont get it she goes over it.I would understand how to do it in class but get so confused when trying to apply it on a test, if you can get her shes pretty good. Shes unintentionally funny too which is great.
She is a very kind and great professor. Copy down all her notes, including the solutions to questions because those are what appear on assignments and quizzes. She does have an accent, but it's not a big problem in attending her classes. She is very helpful if you ask her for help.
She's a great professor who knows her stuff. She explains everything clearly. Sometimes she's moves fast, but if you ask her questions she does explain them well. She tell you exactly what will appear on exams/tests. Very understanding proff, if you have problems you should definitely talk to her.
she is a very excellent and helpful teacher. i love her teaching style. she makes statistic very very easy.taking her class is the best choice. you must attend class and make notes then it is soooooo easy to get good mark. i wish she is the professor who can teach all of my courses.
She is the best! Makes stats seem so easy. Her notes are clear and precise. She gives easy part marks. There are no surprises on the tests and midterms if you've done all the homework she assigns and understood her notes. She really cares about her students and wants them to excel with good marks. Overall, I definitely recommend her.
She is a great teacher. She presents the material very clear and makes stats look easy. If you dont miss her classes and review her notes you will get an A for sure.
She is the most amazing professor I had so far. You don't need to read the textbook or do the self-study, just attend her classes and you will be fine. The way she gives the material is really clear and understandable.
I almost failed this class, but thankfully didn't because she was teaching. Great teacher who tries hard to make sure everyone is paying attention. She is nice deep down, but the way she talks with her heavy russian accent makes it sound like she is always yelling. The classes are generally boring because there is no talking and very long.
Really good professor, her class very easy to understand. It's not difficult to get A+.
Great teacher! I would recommend going to all her classes because she will throughly explain all concepts. Is also very helpful during a test, she won't tell you she can't help you like most professors.
seems strict at times but was a great prof! she would slow down if you didn't understand. don't be intimidated by her loud Russian accent!
Great teacher!
She is an awesome professor. She seems a bit tough initially but you will learn throughout the semester that she is actually caring and very fair. Attend her classes and try your best and you will do fine.
Prof seems slightly strict at first but is indeed very caring! Would recommend!
she is a strict teacher, and she strives to make sure everyone is on top of their work. Svetlana is a very supportive woman, and she constantly asks questions in class, and makes sure we know what is going on. She does not tolerate phones being used in class. She lectures the whole class and is very supportive, Overal she is an amazing teacher.
I strongly recommend her, best prof ever!!
It is hard to understand her and you are better off self studying. Also she does not know what she is teaching and will not explain how to do something.
Hard to understand and too strict
SHE IS AMAZING EVERYTHING IS STRAIGHT FORWARD AND FAIR MARKING
Amazing. Absolutely amazing
I will never choose to take her class again. One of the worst teachers i have ever had. She will put students on the spot and judge students. She has a terrible attitude and not suitable for teaching. She also gives her students attitude and doesn't respect us at all.
Good Prof, Gives good gradings! but needs to see ur participation in class unless it'll be hell for u and her to whole time
Don't take her classes, hard and rude. Tells us to talk to her after class if we don't understand, but looks at us like we are stupid and won't help. Yelled at a student when he asked why he got a different answer then her, and it turned out she was the one who didn't write the correct answer on the board, never apologized afterwards.
Doesn't have any shining pros or cons really. She teaches the material at a decent level that students will understand except the odd time she doesn't fully explain when to use what formula. She has a bit of a Russian accent but it isn't a problem most of the time.
She probably knows her stuff, but as a teacher, she makes things harder than they really are. Doesn't explain theory deep enough for students to understand where things come from, after getting some help from a family friend teaching at York U same course. Really you just need a couple of formulas and some understanding of what is going on.
Amazing professor!! I really enjoy taking class with her!! Very professional person!!
One of the best professor I have taken at Seneca! If you didn't understand she will explain again till you get it!
good prof
The professor has excellent teaching methods. She explains math problems very clearly. She is very helpful and supportive. Excellent time management. Reasonable homework. Clear grading criteria.
Great teacher. Seems super scary at first but is very willing to help dedicated students be successful. Do all the practise questions, or you won't pass.
she is the best
Perfect lady !! Wonderful prof !! Very nice to explain every point. Following the classes, and doing some practices, you will easy to pass.
She is amazing prof! Her online test's are a little harder but she has the easiest in-class test including midterm and finals. Really amazing at teaching. you miss a class you miss load of content. above all she is GENEROUS!
If you get her an option for a class, please take her! She's so inspiring, is always ready to help, and genuinely cares for her students. If you're having trouble with the material she is accessible both in person and online and encourages participation in the most friendly way! Thanks for a great semester!
She is amazing. I would definitely recommend her. Her lectures are really important. you will learn a lot in her lectures. her tests are easy.
Best. Teacher. EVER! Her lectures are truly inspirational, and they will keep you engaged all throughout (super passionate). Students were really struggling with the exam, but she was nice enough to let the entire class re-do it online and give us unlimited attempts. She's really kind and is always quick to respond to emails. Take her class!
Great professor who is also sweet and kind. Finally a math teacher who doesn't look down on you when you ask "dumb" questions. She works through solutions very clearly for you and I'm grateful for having her.
Ms. Nekhai is a very good teacher, who is always willing to help and knows how to explain the content very well so that all students can understand. If you have the opportunity to have her as a teacher, do not think it twice
Really great prof. Very understanding. Did this course once before but had to drop because of another prof but she really helped me understand the content and get a good mark. Hard course but made easier by her, definitely would take again!
a Very nice person cares that students pass the class. fair grader considerate of students gives a time slot for assignments
Well she takes care of everyone. Please do your homework, please give this exam in time Give you enough time and multiple attempts at exams and homeworks. Best class of the semester and you can score a 100% if you give time as unlimited attempts in everything
Svetlana has a strong accent, for some it can be very annoying. She goes through lectures pretty fast, doesn't really explain things. But she is okay.
Amazing Professor, took her class again! As long as you do your work, you'll pass with an amazing grade! multiple attempts on hw and unlimited attempts on exams- how can a professor be so good?!
She is a very very sweet lady. I did BAB110 and BAB210 with her. Even though she isn't very tech savvy, she tries her best to explain everything. If you ask her 100 times the same thing, she will find 100 different ways to explain it to you. She just wants to make sure you understand. If you pay attention, you are good to go.
Please do not hesitate to have her as a teacher; she cares about the student. If you follow her advice, you will succeed. Great teacher, and she is happy to explain things 100 times. Few teachers can be flexible like her.
She is very accomodating and meets outside of class time if necessary. The graded tests could be done multiple times and it was only the highest mark that counted.
hands down the best proffesor i had in my first semester . lectures are easy . if you attend just lectures and do homework which is almost same as in lectures you will easily get higher grades . highly recommended
Choose her now! She is so great . Really caring and takes time to explain when you dont undestand. Tests with unlimited attempts. What more would you want honestly. She is a great prof i have to say and really explains everything . mock tests (not marked) thoroughly prep you for the test.
She is a very nice person but not a great teacher. I do not think she teaches well and confuses me but her assignments are super easy so I would take her again. Take her if you can self study.
Pay attention to the lectures especially the formulas in Excel. Do the homework on time as well as the practice tests. ,
You can choose her without any problem she's really nice. Homework and tests are not that heavy you can easily get A.
The professor provides excellent exam preparation by thoroughly reviewing practice problems for each topic.However, the course requires a significant amount of practice and problem-solving, so students should be prepared to invest time and effort throughout the term.
