Comment:

Professor Feldman is an incredible teacher and is very well respected in the department. That being said, she is a tough teacher and has no problem failing students who don't put in the effort. Its not an easy A, but still probably one of the most important classes in the major. Office hours are a must if you want to pass the class

Comment:

Pstat 174 was my favorite stats class by far. Professor Feldman is incredibly brilliant and so helpful in her office hours. No midterm or final, just weekly homeworks and a final project. I would absolutely take a class with her again!

Comment:

She does have an accent but you can tell that she cares a lot about teaching the subject. Her class isn't extremely hard but it isn't super easy either. I went to CLAS twice a week and I managed to pull an A out of the class.

Her accent takes a while to get used to. Make sure to take CLAS so that the material is easier to understand.

I guess not her fault...but I can't understand a word this professor is saying! This makes the lectures completely pointless.

Angry person. Holier than thou attitude. Thick accent and intimidating personality. Better get some help if you sign up for her class (or drop out if you can).

Raya has such policy: she is wise mother, you are naive child. Sometimes rewarded with candy, often times spanked. If you like this, then she is right for you.

Shes actually not that bad of a teacher. People just give her a bad wrap because they are iggnorant. Her class is not difficult just as long as you follow along with the reader and go to section.

She's kind of a dingbat for a professor. No control over the class - all the idiots in the class won't shut up the whole time and she doesn't seem to care. EZ class-just follow along in the reader. Bad english!!! Ineffiecient teacher.

Absolutely horrible. You can't understand anything she says because her accent is so heavy. She insulted us saying... I don't know why you are business econ majors... she even said she wasn't good with numbers.... umm... ok...
