Collegeamazing teacher, super compassionate and responds to emails quickly. i felt as though the midterms were fair and the final project helped me learn alot + boosted my grade. it was hard, but definitely doable with some work. i really enjoyed having Abuzaid as a professor and I learned a lot about linear regression as well.
Professor Abuzaid is extremely helpful and a very fair professor! I enjoyed taking his class, and appreciate the time and effort he took explaining the reasoning behind every concept.
Very nice professor who cares about his students. Lectures are decent, though they often focus on proofs. The final project effectively ties all topics together. He is accommodating and considerate.
As an exchange student, I thoroughly enjoyed my learning experience in the PSTAT 126 course. The classes were consistently engaging and insightful that I really learned a lot from it!
Prof. Abuzaid is a nice instructor for PSTAT 126. While the course itself is challenging with its mathematical derivations, he always provides clear explanations that make the material more manageable. I found it especially helpful that he included R code in the notes, which was invaluable for completing the final project.
I thought that Prof. Abuzaid was a very good professor and because of that I was able to easily understand the concepts for PSTAT 120B. His lecture slides with the annotations are super helpful because doing the examples from the slides as well as doing the homework made it easy to understand. We had 3 quizzes and he dropped the lowest 2.
