Recommendations
Recommendations come from relatives, friends and acquaintances of the teacher
Shahira is a very good and helpful tutor. She explains the most confusing things very effectively and helps me to understand hard concepts quickly and easily. She also has helpful slideshows for many different concepts which make it much easier to understand units.
Professor Shahira is very clear in her explanations. She really helped me understand the material and was patient with me. Great for more advanced students as she is very knowledgeable about biology, but also good for students struggling with the subject.
Under Shahira's guidance, I learned an exceptional amount of material in an efficient and effective way with a multitude of resources to assist in both practical and conceptual development. She also answers questions promptly and willingly reexplains material, prompted or not. She is a trustworthy and worthwhile teacher.
Professor Shahira is an amazing professor; her lectures are clear, which helps in better understanding, and she gives help where a weak student, like myself, may need it.
