Selected students' comments:
"I enjoyed your module but also enjoyed having you as professor, always bringing a great energy to the class... I feel like learnings from your class translates well to the real-world and are very actionable and hands-on tools we can use."
"...You were honestly my favorite professor during my exchange – it was refreshing to be taught by someone so knowledgeable and passionate about what they teach, and I loved how you got us to engage in discussions every class."
"I would like to take a moment and thank you for the wonderful class in Service Operations Management that I have been privileged to take part in, thank you! What stood out to me was your ability to create a lively class room environment with lots of interesting discussions. Additionally, I really enjoyed the variety and depth of topics, which you taught with a strong passion. Even though I found myself a bit lost in the beginning (naturally as an exchange student) you guided me through my issues and I also felt that the feedback you were given from me and my classmates was heard, just the fact that you gave us a lot of material to go through before the simulation hackathon was highly appreciated... And overall for my future business pursuits, the content that was covered is going to be highly beneficial. It was a really fun experience and I wish you all of the best in the future!

Teaching assistant, Decision & Risk Analysis (Undergraduate and Masters), 2018
Selected student's comment:
"it is very important to have someone to turn to for advice and guidance, to clarify the doubts and shed light on the yet unresolved questions. Sidika was that person who would patiently and thoughtfully dive with me into the case studies, unveil the nuances and explain step-by-step the elements of the model, so that I would be left with clear and structural understanding, tasteful solutions and satisfied mind. She would go over the thought process to ensure that my confusions were resolved, with the genuine desire and striving to strengthen my knowledge of the subject."

Recitation instructor, Linear Programming (core course of BS in IE), 2014-2016
Selected student's comment:
"her understanding of the topics she taught was beyond what was expected from a TA. That’s why she wouldn’t only solve a bunch of questions and let us go, but also, she would give us mini lectures in the recitation sessions. She wouldn’t leave the class before helping the last student with a question in her/his mind."
