'Evidence of Teaching Effectiveness' document)    

"The TA's material followed the lecture material very closely and went over topics that would show up on the hardest questions on the homework so that was really helpful"

"TA Sanyal provided examples in STATA, which helped to do the homework assignments. His explanations allow me to further understand the concepts."

"TA really helps me to practice the stata command and prepare for the homework."

"Strongest points consisted of covering material alongside questions for us in videos posted on canvas."

"He explains concept and problems carefully and usefull"

"He knows about the topics and contexts he want us to understand"

"Avik made sure to go over the major topics that were taught in class so that we can understand it better. The discussion was more like a recap of everything which helped me remember better.."

"He was very enthusiastic and fun to listen to! He was very concise in teaching the material
and made everything easy to understand. A fantastic TA"

"His notes were very organized and examples were comprehensive, they really helps me to understand materials that I wasnt able to fully understand before. I also like his teaching styles& sense of humor"

"I believe that the TA did an excellent job in breaking down the course material in a way that is easier to understand. I often had trouble understanding certain concepts, but their explanations helped me a lot."

"The TA went over relevant practice problems even when no one had any questions to ask, and sometimes introduced new, upcoming topics. He also used many different examples to explain the concepts. He always made plenty of time for questions."

"They engage with the students and always prompt them to ask questions. They definitely have a grasp on the subject that are teaching and they can convey the information to us in a very strong manner."

The strongest points of the TA in discussion section was that he went over the
material more concisely and added upon what was said in the lectures and went
over good tips on how to prepare for the tests to be assigned in lecture.

"While COVID made discussion sections a remote experience rather than a live
interaction, the videos provided by this TA were quite useful. It was obvious that
this TA possessed a strong understanding of the course material, and was able to
impart that understanding to the students in turn"

"The ta was able to not only lecture us in the discussion, but also visually create
graphs to show what would happen. He also had small discussion quizzes that I
enjoyed as they helped me make sure that I was understanding what I was
learning."
