Professor Motwani is very knowledgable and you will learn a lot as long as you simply pay attention. Exams are very straightforward, mostly multiple choice questions, and I got A's on both so far. Some of these reviews feel a bit harsh on her and they are probably from the students that fool around during class or just dislike her for no reason. Some assignments were a bit confusing but she always sends announcements to clear things up. I was originally nervous as this was her first semester teaching, but I think she did well. |

Professor Motwani is very nice and gives you all of the resources you need to succeed. The exams are really easy if you listen to her lectures and skim over the textbook and the skills we learn are actually useful. She really encourages class participation and is happy to help when someone is struggling in class. |

Lovely nice lady, trash teacher. The class is split into two aspects, practical skills and theoretical knowledge. The practical skills are interesting and provide exposure to Excel, Python, Tableau, and some web design. There is one assignment per week related to these skills, and a few projects. This is fairly easy and a good way to learn. The problem I have is with this "theoretical knowledge", which is what the exams are on. The questions are poorly written which makes easy concepts turn incredibly hard and the concepts in general are just stupid, and come across as more like "fun facts" than actual knowledge. This is followed by an array of other annoying questions that she hardly reviews and are worded completely different from the textbook. Avoid this professor if you can, I mean it. I am really disappointed with UMD because this course can be 10x better, from what I have heard other professors structure this course differently and are easier. I wouldn't take another class with her if my life depended on it. She is a kind and lovely lady, but I just have to be honest and warn my future terps. |

Seems inexperienced. She rushes through Excel and Python content, so, if you're a beginner at either, it will be difficult to complete those types of assignments. On top of that, her assignment directions are not clear, even to the point where my class spends the first 30 minutes of class asking her questions regarding what the assignment directions mean. She's horrible at time management. Hands-on learning is fun and important, but it shouldn't take up the whole class period, especially since none of that content will be on exams. As far as exams go, they're easy if you study content on her slideshows. The only issue is you're going to have to put the time in to memorize content and read the book she assigns (since she never has time to go over this content during class time). It's also her way or the highway. Any time you challenge her, she gets frustrated and flustered, and then just says you're wrong. She's frustrating to deal with and makes the class more stressful than it needs to be. |

She actually cares about how people are doing in the class. The exam was easy, just read the slides. Most of the class is legit learning excel. |
