Comment:

BSTAT is already a tough subject, Dr. Esimai just made it harder! Good intentions and wants for all to succeed but her teaching is horrible. A LOT of group activities and tests are HARD! Very RUDE which makes you NOT want to speak up in class or ask questions. However, she curves a lot which is the ONLY plus about her class. It saved me big times!

Comment:

Good afternoon class! I recommend for an easy A will be, take statistic at a community college. It will make this class look like a review. Shes difficult to understand. Do not sit at the back. Ask for questions and help. The ones that say she never help are the ones that never attend class or will sit at the back and text all day. We are a family.

Comment:

WORST professor I have ever taken. Notes come from some shady store down the street from campus that won't even help you learn the material& dont bother asking questions she will just make you feel stupid. Learned nothing in class&all my other classmates feel the same way. Always says she'll give points to ppl who answers Q's in class but forgets

Comment:

Out of the 100 or so teachers I have had in my lifetime, she was the worst. And I am not overestimating. if you are interested in learning stats DO NOT take her. She curves a lot, but what's the point if you don't actually learn anything? She often insults classmates that speak up, and is very intimidating to talk to. Please spare yourself.

If you only need this class to get BSTAT out of the way and are not majoring in OPMA, than take her because you will not fail even if you get 0's in everything. Show up, post a little effort, ask questions, you will get a B. I put no effort but since she knew me by name, I got a B.

Please save yourself the hassle of taking this woman. She is incredibly unclear of her expectations and also requires you to BUY her notes from a seperate printing store. Be prepared to teach yourself statistics! Avoid if possible!!!!!!

The class was hard and she wasn't too clear because of her thick accent, but she gives plenty of extra credit and curves decently. Can't say I would complain.

Comment:

If you have to drop a test grade, give tons of extra credit, and give a huge curve at the end, it means the students aren't learning. Students routinely make below a 50 on the exams and she doesn't bat an eye, because she knows she'll curve. I made an A and I can honestly say I know no more about statistics now than when I started.

Comment:

Avoid. Brilliant woman. Horrible teacher. Teaches as if you're a math major. Doesn't convey complex ideas well. Falls back on complex math formulas instead, and berates students for not getting it. Expects you to see tutors for clarification. Tests have too many questions to do in allotted time, and lab comps keep freezing. Demoralizing class.

Comment:

If she wasn't so rude, this class wouldn't be so bad. She's decent at teaching (although if you don't have a decent background in statistics, you'll struggle). However, she's so unapproachable and intimidating with how she acts. She made a girl who was using the lab to finish an assignment cry. Not recommended because of it. Grades are bad too.

Comment:

HOLY MOTHER OF GOD! If you want to just get a C, than take her. Don't bother studying for tests, quizes because what she says is different from what she tests on. She curves so much that I went from an F to an A in one day! Haven't learned anything but don't really care since it doesn't relate to my major. My advice, find her test banks..

She walked out of 2 exams not informing classes where she was going, forced students to take a 40 minute test within 10 minutes remaining, forgot to teach a whole chapter the quiz was over, very thick accent, uploaded the wrong test, graded the quizzes incorrectly so students studied the wrong answers for the test, overall this class unfair hell.

Comment:

Horrid! Always makes excuses for her inability to teach blaming it on the students. Only one person passed the first exam with an A; most failed with grades in the 30's and 40's. The participation bonus points are nice but not enough to make up for the hard exams. Has a thick accent and thinks you already know all of BSTAT so won't explain. Bad!!!

Hardest class I have taken!! You really have to work hard to obtain a good grade, can respond to email pretty late. If your not a good math person then be prepared to have sleepless nights. I highly recommend you to take her you will thank me later. She lectures by her notes where you have to buy. Tests are not like hw problems

Esimai is a great professor who really cares about her students. She gives plenty of opportunities to learn and she's actually kind of entertaining during lecture. I highly recommend her if you need to take BSTAT

Comment:

It's an easy 'A' class if you attend her class everyday and follow her notes. She pretty much goes with her notes only. Do not take her if you are Math major because she does not cover a lot of stuff from textbook. She is not that friendly when you ask her any question, she expects you to know everything.

I loved her class. She gave what she called "participation quizzes" for extra credit practically every other class. She does have an accent, but she's totally understandable. She curves, throws out your lowest grades, gives practice tests, and knows the material inside and out. Buy her notes, go to class, ask questions, and you'll get an A.

I hated this class, she's confused and makes everything too hard to understand. I didn't understand her notes,plus she was rude when you ask her questions. she told us that she doesn't smile because she thinks it's not funny. If you can, stay away from her.

Comment:

You don't need the book at all for her class, just buy her notes. Took over Summer and needed to show up everyday. It is not an easy class, but even if you fail every test you will still probably pass with a C. She gives out a lot of extra points during class and after tests.
