Comment:
I took this class remotely and could not understand him through the mask and video. At one point in the class, he was videoing the board upside down. I ended up teaching myself through the textbook and not attending lectures. He also gave no accommodation for sick students and rarely responded to emails.

best professor I have ever had in my life. The thing is, if you follow what he says and do what he asks, you will learn a lot in his class and you will like him so much.

Prof Sadaka is one of the best professor I've ever had. He's very passionate about probability and statistics. The bad ratings on here are people who don't want to work and want to get a good grade.

Comment:
Worst Professor ever. Do not fall into his trap. He'll say all good things in the lecture by being bad that I do all this for you and won't even grade you as per his stupid philosophy Regarding his teaching, there is no particular method that he follows, teaches anything out of nowhere, and would also make fun of doubts asked.

Comment:
Really funny and dedicated professor with high expectations for his students, and he wants you to succeed. But he has an unorganized way of explaining things and moves too fast during class. We had 8 problem sets, 2 of the lowest were dropped. 2 midterm exams worth 20% each and a Final worth 30%. His accent makes him hard to understand sometimes.

Easily the worst professor I've had at Northeastern, also in the running for worst teacher I have ever had. His accent makes him difficult to understand and with online learning he does not read the zoom chat at all. His teaching style is basically 100% unorganized random example problems, fails to explain the reasoning behind any of the examples.

Comment:
Sadaka is one of my favorite teachers so far at Northeastern. He has high expectations for all of his students but he cares very deeply about their success, which he will very often tell you at the end class. Out of the 8 problem sets he gives at least 2 are dropped and exams are very straightforward, so getting an A in the class isn't difficult.

Nice guy. I had a hard time watching his lectures live because of my time zone but he is a very solid professor. Would say attending his stats class at least didn't feel overly necessary the PPTs are excellent. He is a good dude I would definitely take him again. He does make some funny jokes during class if you are tuned in!

Prof Sadaka is a pretty good prof. Make sure you read the slides before class and you'll be fine. The bad ratings on here are people who don't want to work and have finally found a prof who challenges them. He's a great guy outside of class (always helped me even outside office hours) and very passionate about statistics.

Comment:
Some people love him, some hate him. He insults confused students if they ask questions, and can't explain things multiple ways, so everyone just nods along and tries to learn it on their own later. His accent can make it hard when he lectures really fast. Build a good relationship with him by going to office hours, or don't expect to do well.

This dude was probably one of the worst teachers Ive ever had for math. In fact, he made me hate math so much that I switched my major. I have never seen such irresponsibility when it comes to teaching consistently across all his sections, and honestly frick this guy. I b failing his quizzes bc he did not provide quality teaching. Fat thumbs down:/

Prof Sadaka is easily the worst professor I've had at Northeastern. He's disorganized, a poor communicator, and quite absent-minded. I cannot believe I am paying this much money for this quality of education; the primary reason why students like him so much is because he just gives out a ton of A's, not because of his actual teaching.

He is such an amazing professor. He's always available for extra help and will explain an example a different way each time until you understand. His lectures were always filled with good examples and he was very engaging--it never felt like class was dragging on.
