Comment:

Good professor. Helpful and understanding. Lectures are ppt based and very dry. Exams are similar to previous years therefore fairly easy. However, if the class is rude etc. she will make the questions impossibly tricky.

helpful, friendly. Her exams are not hard however if you keep telling her they are easy she will make them hard and tricky. she has hearing aid but still to fully understand her you need to sit on front rows.

Comment:

Taught entire course on ppt, which made it impossible to follow. I attended tutorials and learned everything I needed to know from example problems. I attended almost every class and there was almost always 3/10 attendance. Decided not to take ECE 463/464 to avoid her. Frequently misunderstood questions, and student concerns. Easy exams...

One of the best people you will meet at the University, extremely kind and VERY caring about your education. She will go out of her way to help you. Pay attention to her examples and previous exams, she is very straightforward on her exams. She is difficult to hear and understand, so sit in the front and don't make noise. Her notes are top notch.

Great prof. Knows her stuff very well. Lecture notes are extremely well done. Exams are similar to in-class questions. Never miss one of her review sessions. She is a straight shooter and keeps it real. She knows people only pay attention before midterms and finals, so she keeps this in mind when reviewing concepts. Integrates lectures with labs!!!

Although her voice is somewhat little monotonus, she is a great teacher. She cares about us, and she wants us to learn. ECE Dept. needs more Profs. like Jayaram.

She really cares, which is hard to find in this department. Not a hard course and her in-class examples are helpful. Funny in unintended ways.

Comment:

One of the few people in ECE who genuinely, deeply cares about her students, who instills interest, and who can teach well. Her voice may put you to sleep, but there's not one class of hers I missed this term. Thank you, Prof Jayaram, for one great term. The department needs more like you!

She is one such prof who can build interest in students about what others least care, like electrical machines course. The only course I never missed this term is ECE 362.

I believe that She doesn't understand exactly what she is teaching and her accent when she is talking is horrible.
