I had this Professor for a grad class with 5 other people and it was excellent. Quite a bit of work but involved everyone and helped me understand what was being taught. From what other people have said, perhaps this was because it was small class and everyone was interested in what was being taught
I was really suprised to see so many bad comments about this professor. I suppose it might be boring if you have only a passing interest in the subject, but if you really enjoy it then you will also enjoy the depth we go into. The people who rated him badly probably did so only because they got a bad grade. It's a lot of work, but come on were not in High School anymore
Very boring lectures and his assignments, or else the TA's grading were hard!!!
Positive:
Shows a great knowledge of subject matter

Professor is boring or bland
Notes/lecture is confusing
Needs to involve students in class discussions
Lacks enthusiasm in the classroom
Habib was one of the most boring, monotonous teacher ever, the class discussions sucked and so did the class. I never went to class but I got a B in the class, so it wasn't hard, but it was terrible.
