1.00Hitting on female students, and he’s super into adding first-year girls from clubs on WeChat.Australian National UniversitySep 7, 2026
2.00Sanjay is a nice person but a horrible lecturer. He does not stay on topic when delivering lectures and goes off on random tangents. His learning materials are filled with random screenshots and equations and you can never tell whether something is going to be assessed, or if it's just a 'fun fact'. His assessments involve recalling random pieces of information from hundreds of lecture slides, which makes them a memory exercise rather than an assessment of your understanding.Edith Cowan UniversitySep 7, 2026
1.00be prepared for hell and back with a man who will suspend you for doing a quiz at home Monash UniversitySep 6, 2026
1.00Use worst grading University of Engineering and Technology LahoreSep 6, 2026
1.00genuinely is the worst professor ever. this woman spends 30 minutes on one slide and there's over 30 slides to cover for the class. THE CLASS CAN GO ON FOR 4 HOURS+ SHE DOES NOT CARE. and i can also never digest what she teaches so i have to go home to review it on my own again cause she's just blabbering in classAsia Pacific Institute of Information Technology (APIIT)Sep 6, 2026

2.00Doesn't seem to really care. Barely any interest in interacting with students with questions University of QueenslandSep 5, 2026
2.00Leichtbau lectures are truly unique. On one hand, you get deep, rigorous derivations of the governing equations—peak theoretical knowledge. On the other hand, the lecturer actually works through practical examples to apply that theory, which is far from standard. The big downside, however, is that the exam seems designed purely to break you rather than evaluate your understanding. You barely have time to engage with the mechanics; instead, you are forced to rush through complex, half-page calculations in lightning-fast time. If you make a single algebraic slip along the way, you get zero points for the entire task because only the final multiple-choice answer counts. The common justification is that in real engineering practice, a bridge collapses if you miscalculate, so a faulty exam calculation deserves no credit. Yet this comparison fundamentally misunderstands engineering reality. Real-world structural design does not happen in four unverified minutes under extreme time pressure; it relies on peer reviews, the four-eyes principle, and thorough plausibility checks. In industry, transparent and traceable documentation is what actually prevents disasters because another engineer can easily catch and correct a minor sign error. By reducing half a page of sound physical modeling to zero points over an isolated arithmetic slip, the exam fails to measure engineering competence—it merely tests typing speed and panic resistance, while treating a student with 95% structural comprehension the exact same as someone who had no clue how to set up the problem at all. Ultimately, it comes down to a deliberate choice of what kind of engineers this course wants to breed. panicked number-crunchers who gamble on end results under arbitrary deadlines, or thoughtful professionals who model soundly, document transparently, and understand how safe structures are actually built.Rheinisch-Westfälische Technische Hochschule AachenSep 4, 2026

2.00Probably good at maths, but absolutely horrific at explaining even the most basic concepts. Non readable notes in class Technische Universitat MunchenSep 3, 2026
1.00Terrible at giving out feedback causing myself and peers to fall short because the feedback is misleading and doesn’t help with improving assignments whatsoever. University of the Sunshine CoastSep 3, 2026

1.00Simply atrocious.Hogeschool van Arnhem en NijmegenSep 3, 2026
1.00She seems nice when teaching, but for personal Q and A she is very rude, her English is very poor that I do not know how can she give presentations to Australian government, though she claims to be the AO (Australia Officer), she also had a team that is “smart”: they ask you to do the heavy research job for them, with oral promise to pay, and refuse to pay you in the end, very rude Professor with cunning character, I seriously doubt how can she as a grumpy old lady, can become a professor with a position by like this, such a joke.University of Technology SydneySep 3, 2026
1.00Simply atrocious Hogeschool van Arnhem en NijmegenSep 3, 2026
2.00I think he should'nt just impose his own views and interpretations on student and let them have their views like calm down its not that deep.Aga Khan UniversitySep 3, 2026
1.00Awfull teacher, does the bare minimum to get byHogeschool RotterdamSep 3, 2026
1.00Would not recommend any of his courses. He has a massive ego problem and is extremely classist and elitist. For someone who knows so much about God and religion maybe he should practice a little kindness or in other words just not be insufferable to everyone he meets.Aga Khan UniversitySep 3, 2026

1.00Is always rude to their students and expects her students to know everything and pressures them into answering when she knows exactly that we dont understand what she is teaching. Her teaching methods are horrible and the whole class failed and she blamed us.Walailak UniversitySep 2, 2026
