Although he needs to improve his lectures, his notes are fine because they include all the important information in the course. He doesn't give hard assessments, but we can still learn something.Rate My Professors ↗

Nimal is the best instructor you can get so far for STAT 310 since others are HELL LEVEL HARD. His lectures are boring but the notes are pretty organized. Tests are fair, and he provides extra credit throughout the semester. Not very accessible through email though.Rate My Professors ↗
Quality 2/5Difficulty 2/5
To be honest, one of the most boring lecturers that I've ever had. His notes are not very organized, on a word doc and not formatted well. I stopped going to the lectures halfway through the semester as did most people because you can learn better just reading the textbook. That being said, the exams are fair and he's very lenient on the grading.Rate My Professors ↗

Quality 1/5Difficulty 4/5
It's hard to follow anything Nimal is doing. During lectures, he scrolls back and forth through his notes making it difficult to understand anything going on. He also spends a lot of time explaining topics that have no relation to whatever we are discussing. With no lecture flow and quick pacing, it's easy to get confused in his lectures.Rate My Professors ↗
