• "Emir was the biggest strength of this course to be honest. He was the best professor I have had at the university thus far in my three years here and is honestly one of the most genuine, friendly, and communicative teachers I have ever had." 

• "Emir was an amazing teacher who taught the material really well. When I was struggling in the class and I reached out for help, he would respond to emails right away and be very accommodating. He made sure that I understood the material and was able to perform better on the next assessment." 

• "[...] Overall, Professor Murathanoglu is by far the best instructor I've had in my learning career so far."

• "I like Emir's humour."
