Indira is one of the best profs I have had at Langara. I took this course as an elective and I really enjoyed the material mostly because of how Indira delivered it! She is so inspiring and knowledgeable and clearly passionate about sociology. I would take another one of her classes in a heartbeat!

Comment:

Mrs. Prahst has been one of the best professors I have ever taken before. She truly cares about the subject, and puts a lot of time and effort into her classes. Whenever I email her, she replies very quickly, and is super helpful. She does take note of who is in class, so it is best to go to each lecture. Her lectures are really engaging too!

Comment:

Indira is a really inspirational teacher. This is my first course with her, and I really want to take another class with her. My only comment would be for her to maybe be a little bit more organized when it comes to lecture material, and speaking during lectures. Other than that, she is a phenomenal teacher!

Comment:

Indira is an amazing person, but she tends to be disorganized and rushes through lectures even when they're 3 hours long. For her exams make sure to explain everything and gives lots of examples and make sure to read the textbook because her midterm is based off the textbook and not her notes. Take this class if you're good at teaching yourself!

Comment:

One of the best professors I had at Langara. Indira is very knowledgeable, kind and caring professor. Sociology 1120 with her is a very good choice if you want to boost your GPA but attending classes and doing workshop assignments (very easy) is necessary. She is very passionate about Sociology and makes the course material interesting.

Comment:

Interesting lectures! She takes attendance randomly, so it's better to be on the safe side and attend all classes. To get full marks on essays, make sure to define EVERYTHING. My only complaint is that she would send lecture notes an hour before class. It would be nice to have them the night before so that I could make a copy and follow along.

Indira is so great. She is very passionate about sociology and families. She's very kind and compassionate. Her lectures are interesting and engaging. My only issue is her hand outs! There were so many and all were poorly photocopied and not hole punched. Made it hard to stay organized. Her expectations are clear and she is a fairly easy marker.

Comment:

Indira is a great prof super passionate and clearly enjoys teaching. But she is a super hard grader - this is unfair considering that the class is taught by 2 other profs who are much much easier markers. This is evident by the pile of term papers that were written for the other profs compared to indira. I wish the class grading had single standard

Comment:

Her class changed the way I looked at the world. She is an amazing lecturer but expects all her students to know sociology which isn't the case. A bit of a tough marker but her classes will definitely teach you something new. She also responds to emails incredibly fast. She is a hard marker but if you have some sociology background you will be okay

Comment:

She teaches 1/3 of the course and her portion was the worst. Interesting content at times, but her notes are all over the place. Write down everything she says because the notes she prints and gives you, she doesn't follow them. Her examples/case-studies are 20 years old, which is frustrating for a class on racism and ethnic policies.

Indira was instrumental part of me surviving Langara, She's an AMAZING teacher . She cares about her students and, makes you want to engage and learn more as well as think critically and intellectually. The ONLY criticism I have for her is that she's not teaching more courses.

Comment:

I took a course with professor Indira on race and ethnicity; it was amazing. I enjoyed her critical approach to social issues and examination of it through historical, theoretical and sociological approach. She also introduces students to other academic works and key academicians with her assigned readings which guide students for further learning.

Indira is awesome! Her teaching method is very engaging and it makes you so interested in sociology. Barely any homework and she is so clear with preparation for both midterms and the final. She tells you exactly what to study and there are no surprises on the exams. DEFINITELY would take her as a prof again. And she has a good sense of humor.
