A direct prodcut of budget cuts and faculty diversity programs. Cheap to hire for the University but undermines the quality of education. Reflects badly on Carleton University and reduces prospects of future employment. She is incomprehensible, not knowledgeable and cannot teach without her powerpoint slides. Waste of time and money!

Stay away from this prof if you can! One of the worst profs ever. She can't teach!!!!!

VERY USELESS PROF. AVOID AT ALL COSTS. You'll regret it I promise!!! Knows nothing... uses her textbook during the lecture... TOTALLY USELESS, more useless than the worst highschool teacher you've ever had.. not kidding!

Extremely disorganized. Cannot teach, reads off slides, which are made from notes in the textbook. I feel even more stupid every time i come out of this class.

Extremely disorganized professor with unclear expectations. For a case analysis assignment, I asked for help and instead of helping me, she told me to start over. She showed up to class on time maybe 3-4 times in the semester, every other time she was late. She constantly hesitates when she speaks and doesn't know case details. Very disappointed.

Had her last semester and it was hell so I tried to avoid her this semester but she was the only option for this mandatory course. Again, absolute hell. She has no idea what she is doing or what she is saying when she "lectures"; very unorganized prof. Constantly swearing, which is unprofessional and distracting and ridiculous expectations. AVOID!

I highly recommend you avoid Tabibi, she doesn't support her students very much and just wants you out of her office hours so she isn't forced to answer a question because she's not confident in her own answers. I don't know how the school considers her qualified to teach, she doesn't deliver lectures very well, very incoherent, very unhelpful

She should not be teaching fourth year mandatory courses that are based on theory. She is very immature and all over the place. She just talked for the entire class, barely used any videos, guest speakers, etc. Very unclear and inconsistent with expectations for take-homes. She deducted a lot of points even when you did exactly what she asked.

I would avoid at all cost. She is very unclear, has norealistic expectations, her tests are hard. She uses essay questions and you need to have her vocabulary to have the points. Very unclear about what is going to be on the final. If you send her an email, do not expect to have an answer until at least 10 days later. Very unprofessionnal.

Unclear, contradictory, and tough exams. Her expectations on the final paper were however clear. She never seemed to convey the material properly and often made mistakes (CRM2300), applying the wrong legal concepts to certain cases. Tough grader, midterm especially, write down all information!

Avoid at all costs. She constantly contradicts herself and does not convey anything clearly. When people suggest that maybe her exam questions weren't clear or the grading was unfair she is immediately defensive and closed off to criticism. She would benefit from reflecting on it because she's an awful professor. Her rating on here says it all.

Vajmeh is hilarious and definitely keeps class interesting (I also had her in 2nd year), she is clearly very passionate about the subject. Her marking and expectations are unclear and unfair. Her statistics are often actually incorrect. Knowing the actual facts and subject matter is not as important for doing well in this class as speaking like her

The average on our midterm was 59%, and she said that was the highest its been in a few years. If you want to lose your mind trying to wrap your head around her very poorly formatted exams and useless lectures, take this class. If not, avoid with a 20 foot pole

Vajmeh makes no sense at all. Her lectures are disorganized, she is unprofessional, and confusing. The class average is extremely low and it's because of her. She might be decent in second year in-person classes, but fourth year abolitionism online with her was painful and it didn't have to be that way if she was more accommodating and organized.

She's a sweet lady, but do not take this class with her if it's important to you. Lectures are unclear, contradicts herself constantly, and goes off on tangents that aren't pertinent and waste time (like case details that don't matter). She also is not lenient when it comes to posting material and her marking schemes can sometimes be arbitrary.

Extremely vague when she teaches. She constantly contradicts herself and in practically every sentence she stumbles on her words when she's explaining something, making it extremely difficult to follow. It's as if she's having 3 conversations with herself at the same time. The feedback given after a midterm is atrociously unhelpful.

lmao ive had her twice now & AWFUL will not take again. she doesnt give a lot of feedback & literally says she just wants the right answer & enough detail for exams but marks stupid hard & doesnt really explain what she wants. literally just the right answer. also goes off topic in class a lot & her & ta would only go over 2 qs for the midterm

Very confusing and contradictory lectures, gives very vague lectures but expects extremely detailed midterms and exams. Tells class that a 58% average is fine and will not give any more clear grading criteria. Terrible lectures and even worse exams, Avoid this prof!!!

Had her once and she was terrible, this is my second class with her as my prof because she was the only prof for this course. Gives extremely unclear grading criteria and marks extremely tough on exams, only benefit of the class is the bond between students for shared frustration with the prof. Horrible prof , stay way.

She's honestly a terrible prof. very disorganized lectures, goes on tangents and makes it confusing

She is the worst prof ever. So unclear and extremely tough for no reason. Gives terrible instructions and expects way too much. The only good thing is that everyone hates her so we can bond over that. Never take a class with her.

I have had Vajmeh for 2 classes and she has been very confusing in both. She constantly contradicts herself, making it hard to follow along and take decent notes. Her midterms are unnecessarily hard as expectations are not clear. She seems like a nice and caring person, but not a very great prof with the constant disorganization, but she tries.

i've had her two times already in 2020-2021. she's is very disorganized when it comes to lecturing. her material is not clear she's not clear. her exams don't make sense and are hard to understand. she's also very unreasonable. surprised the department isn't doing anything about her since everyone is complaining. Avoid her class at all costs.

Professor Tabibi is one of the worst professors I've had in my four years at uOttawa. She rants as though she has no idea what she's talking about and her sentence structure when she speaks is so confusing it is impossible to follow along accurately. She give unclear instructions on her assignments and midterms and expects us to just figure it out

Lectures were pre-recorded but only available for a few days. Her lectures are all over the place and she bounces back and forth - definitely not clear. She's an extremely difficult grader. Midterm was all long answer and she is very critical, if your response is not the exact answer she wants than you will get no marks.

Beware. Really hard marker and very specific with what she wants. Even when you think you did amazing on an exam, you won't get the mark you were expecting - it's a very humbling experience lol. Review your midterm exam over with the T.A so you can try to improve for the final.

This is my second time with this prof, I thought this time if I put in more work and focus on the lectures I could possibly achieve a better grade. the reality is this prof is just horrible. She gives opened ended questions with multiple correct answers yet expects you to answer in a very specific way. AVOID AT ALL COSTS!!!!!

no words can explain how awful of a professor she is. you can be a straight A student and nearly fail her course for how strict, unreasonable, and unclear she is

so unorganized, unclear, and contradicting in lectures. you will never receive good marks on exams because you must answer with SPECIFIC words she wants, even though questions are open-ended and can have multiple different answers. trying to get proper feedback or instructions for assignments is ridiculously hard. don't torture yourself

i'm a fourth year student, and this is my 3rd time taking her i had no choice. Each time I thought she would improve i'm wrong. She does not know how to teach properly. I lived off of reading my textbooks and looking at quizlet flashcards from past students. I took her class Crm 2300 two times, each time is the same. She's very confusing. avoid her

AVOID THIS CLASS, take the course with another prof if you can, you will ruin your GPA. I thought the previous reviews were exaggerated, but they are all correct. She only keeps her job due to the professor union. Professor Tabibi when you're reading this (I know you read these reviews, you said so on the first day of class) get it together please

Her tests, papers and exam are not challenging. However, her grading is. I was never accommodated extra time for my midterm. She was a strict marker in our one-piece for the class, especially with citations for APA. If you also go over the page limit when it comes to assignments. You will automatically lose a lot of marks.

this is by far the worst professor I've had in my university career. She submitted our grades from a midterm we wrote over a month ago 2 DAYS BEFORE OUR FINAL EXAM. She does not provide feedback at all so get ready to be confused. When you try to contact her she'll just deflect and tell you to contact the TA. Cannot believe she is allowed to teach

You can study as much as you like for this class but as other reviews say, you are not leaving with a good grade. Vajmeh is a hard grader and her rubrics for papers and projects are heavily flawed and vague. It seems as though she prides herself on being a difficult grader. This class will hit your GPA so be prepared for that. Avoid at all costs!

Ignore all the good ratings, she was awful. Unfortunately, I think she's the only prof that teaches this course so all us CRM students go through her. She will be the worst experience in your undergraduate studies. Sacrificed my sanity for a B which was one of the better grades in the entire class. Read and take notes of everything. U got this

She is so unclear about what she wants, and she is a tough grader. She also does not tell you where you got things wrong, and when you ask her a question, you'll never get the answer that you want/expected

AVOID AT ALL COSTS. Her teaching style is very confusing and unclear. You will be given a random jumble of information and have to literally decode whatever she is saying. Her classes and teaching style are insufferable and complicated. I retaught myself everything using the textbook. She also messed up on a few of the cases / criminal codes.

CRM students - this will be your worst experience, but - you can do it. There's no surprise that this is the class that most CRM students fail in their undergrad. Secretly recording the lectures and using it to study was the only way I got a C in this course. It's unfortunate that such an interesting course has such a difficult prof. U got this!!!

I have nothing to say but avid her at all cost

I've unfortunately had her 3 times now for compulsory courses. She's a very hard grader, rambles in class on unrelated subjects often, and doesn't give any feedback or return midterms. The worst part is that you can't avoid her without taking classes in French, you need to do all the readings multiple times.

In her lectures she seems like such a great and fun prof. As soon as you get your first midterm back, you will realize where all the bad ratings come from. If you do not write down exactly what she says and exactly how she says it, you will not pass. 2 midterms and 1 final. You can't avoid her unless you take your class in french. Lock. in.

Lecs are not recorded and slides are not posted. if you miss a lecture, too bad. there's no way to access any of the material she's teaching unless you attend lecs and take notes. the course's brightspace page has nothing on it but the syllabus.

Your GPA will drop. Harshly graded. Unorganized. Lectures all over the place. Everything is last minute and poor communication. No accommodation. You will learn things (not graded on) but if you want to do well, pass, succeed and get feedback, forget it. Dont waste your time and save your GPA. Contradicts the meaning of professor. Not prof material

You will not succeed in this class. You are on your own and you will fail even if you memorize the whole textbook and her slides she will fail you because it is plagiarism for her.

Unbelievably strict, difficult, and incompetent. Can't be bothered to update syllabus when things change (Syllabus claimed midterm would be held at 10:00, instead occurring at 9:00. Syllabus claimed midterm to be essay-style questions, was actually a mix of multiple choice and short answer). Avoid at all costs.

I'm usually a good student, I was given the first D+ in this class that I thought I should've gotten an A. I usually don't get grades lower than a B. I attended every class, wrote good notes, did ALL the required reading and studied for all her tests (~6-8 hours)

Not worth taking this class - the professor is lecture heavy and does not post anything to the brightspace past the course outline. The exams require extensive level of detail, and they do not give you enough time to complete them. The professor often swears in class, comes unprepared & is unsure of the content. Not worth it for an elective.

just avoid this course at all cost, listen to all the reviews. You will simply struggle to even get a B in this course, the worst courses I've taken have been with this professor.
