Very fair and encouraging teacher. Cares about your learning, paces it through the whole semester, has reasonable expectations. Knows a lot about the subject, would take again - you'll learn a lot

Difficult 200-level class. Not very interesting and was never too sure what was going on. Too many assigned readings. He loves Palestine and hates Israel.

Interesting class, but he is extremely biased towards the left. He sounds like a propaganda machine at times and is rarely open to taking any perspectives that disagree with him.

Prof. Hazkani is a good teacher but a very demanding one. He's certainly a goldmine of info and is certainly an interesting lecturer but his teaching style leaves something to be desired. He's not very good at responding to emails so all your communication with him will probably happen during or after class. Sometimes, you'll have to keep asking the same thing to get the answer you want. I took his class in Spring 2020, but he did not at all adjust to pandemic circumstances - he demanded that we keep our cameras on and there were no exceptions for late work.

Shay is a fantastic teacher. Fair grading, and he really wants to help you learn the material. He is also a goldmine of info, so feel free to float paper ideas by him, and he will freely share his knowledge to help you form a great paper. But don't let the man fool you, despite his generosity and ability, his classes are not easy. But put work it and you will see it reflected in your grade.
