she's nice, but we have tests every friday, and someones we have pop quizzes. he have homework assigned every class day and then they are all due that following monday. does a lot of examples which is helpful and tells you about tutoring a lot just to make sure that you succeed.

Ms. B is a great teacher. She is really into helping her students and she really does care if we do bad/good. We have HW everyday and its due the followin monday, quizzes every friday, 2 "mid terms" and i belive a final. The quizzes and HW are all helpful b/c they pertain to the TESTS. Great help. She might seem mean @ 1st vbut shes really cool!

Bita is great. She's very helpful and willing to take feedback from her students. Though she teaches quite quickly, you are able to catch up especially with the weekly quizzes which are super helpful and it gives your grades a boost. Attendance is a part of your grade and if you miss a lot, she'll notice.

The class is very straightforward and not to mention, too easy. All you do is turn in hw, do the weekly quizzes and you'll land yourself with a passing grade. Bita grants alot of time to her students during office hours, so there's no need to be shy when asking for help, its served on a silve platter. The material is very obvious anyway

The class moves really slow but overall its a great high school refresher with the potentional to interest people in math again. I enjoyed the class because I didn't think it was possible to learn anything new about algebra - and in the end I did. This is a class where you can't just 'plug and chug' you gotta seriously think.

Bita is awesome. She can go through the material a bit too fast, but she catches herself most of the time and asks the class if everyone understands. She is very passionate and tries to make the concepts easy to understand. She doesn't like tardiness,especially on fridays (the quizzes). oh yeah do the homework! It is a big part of your grade.

Bita is one of those teachers that will work hard for everyone to understand. I don't know any teacher who would put in 2 office hours for a super review before the final. Awesome teacher. Wished she taught math 109

Bita is an extremely helpful teacher. I took MATH 70 for the second time with her and left with a clear understanding of the subject. She is friendly and genuinely cares about her students' success. Attendance is a must and weekly quizzes help boost your grade. Homework every class session but few problems are assigned. I would highly recommend her

I have her for math109. The examples she covers are helpful. Regular hw and quizzes makes you keep up with the class. I don't like the online hw but it's the only way. She cares that you learn and show up and offers a ton of help during office hours.

She is the most dedicated, hard working math instructor I have ever had! I had taken math 109 before and it was a disaster but Bita made it all make sense and motivated me to do well.

Best math teacher at State. She's one of those teachers who would feel extremely sad if you failed her class. She really wants you to pass and it shows because she gives plenty of office hours and shows some individual attention. Only math teacher that i recommend!

I love Ms. B. She is super helpful and is very generous to your grade. You can talk to her anytime about problems you are having. Tests aren't too bad. Attendance is mandatory, she gives extra credit on days when not too many people show up. She is a wonderful teacher. TAKE HER

I hated math with such a passion before entering this class. I walked in VERY pessimistic. Bita is an amazing professor. She knows what shes doing and challenges her students to succeed and do better. Weekly quizzes/attendance is MANDATORY/ok HW load/clear/MUST take notes. I'm not walking out VERY comfortable with what she taught. TAKE HER!!!!!!!!!

***** I'm NOW walking out VERY comfortable with what she taught. TAKE HER!!!!!!!!! she will seriously dedicate her own time for the good of the students. you MUST pay attention in class in order to understand material.

Ms.B is the definition of a great teacher.She is very passionate and it shows through her teaching. Attendence is a must and quizzes every friday. 2 "midterms" and a final. she prepares you for both midterms and final.go to her office hours!! very helpful! overall, she is the best! good person at heart and one of those teachers you'll never forget

I hated math with a passion before I took this class. She is the BEST math teacher at state. She takes the class seriously which makes you take it seriously. You have to show up every class and NEVER be late! But it is worth it because when too many people don't show, you get extra credit! Take her class!! She is so smart will help you so much.

I had not taken math in a long time and found Ms. Nosratieh to be the most helpful teacher I have ever had. It is important you attend class daily and the weekly quizzes will help you keep up. If you are serious about learning, take her.

She will come off as extremely tough for the 1st few weeks to scare everyone who isn't serious away. If you can stick to it she really cares about her subject and wants students to do well if they try. She also has a pretty decent sense of humor. Great teacher. I feel that I am doing well in calc because she prepared me in precalc

This class should only be taken if you definitely need it, and not for credit. With that said, she understands that most of her students are planning to take Calculus classes in the future, so she does her best to make sure students understand the material. She is willing to repeat a topic, and answer questions if needed.

had her at State during the summer. she rudely googles her eyes at students & hates reviewing her lectures when her students ask her to. attendance is mandatory and she HAtES answering questions b/c she sees it as a disruption. know how to manage your hw. quizzes every friday. i wouldn't recommend her. she will confuse you & not care.

Bita is a fantastic teacher. She genuinely wants each one of her students to learn well and pass the class. I am passing with a B, and she is even giving me recommendations for teachers next semester. Take her class if you can, you won't be disappointed.

i really enjoy this class, and has to say something since its a math class. bita, really does try to make sure that people learn the subject. i dont know what the other people are talking about when they say she doesn't care or not answer questions. she really bends over backwards for her students and does a great job. id recommend her to anyone!!

Bita is a exquisite teacher! She grades fair and compensates you for your hard work. Test every Friday,one midterm,and a final. I would recommend anyone to take her class. She is very helpful during office hours and wants you to succeed! I was terrible in math and tohught I would fail the class but with her help I got an -A. DONT MISS OUT TAKE HER!

I felt that Bita was very helpful and straight forward. Her classes were always fun and the homework was like a video game.

She can go too fast sometimes. If you attend class regularly she offers chances for you to improve your grade. Be prepared for weekly quizzes and daily homework.

I thoroughly enjoyed her teaching my calculus class! The subject material was very difficult, but her lectures were clear and examples were easy to follow. Do your homework every week, study for the quizzes every week, and 2 major exams. Also, if you don't understand something, go to her office hours! Very helpful and friendly.

Hard class, but very helpful. Has extra credit sometimes. Has a sign in sheet, but you're allowed to miss up to 2 times per grading period...although that's not a good idea considering it's calculus. She'll go over good examples in class and anything in office hours. She wants you to pass as much as you do, just put in the extra bit of work!

Bita cares about her students and is absolutely amazing. You gotta work for that A. Go to her office hours; she's extremely helpful and understanding.

She really cares about the students in her class being prepared for calculus. I am doing well so far in calculus and she is a big reason for that. A lot of people that start this class don't make it to the end and a lot end up taking a W. Take every exam seriously. Her tests are not that hard but will test your knowledge of the subject.

-Tough class -Step-by-step examples during lecture -Online homework -Sometimes offers extra credit -Sign-in sheet for attendance -Provides study guides with suggested problems -2 exams and 1 cumulative final

Very nice teacher, go to class, pay attention, ask questions, and do the homework and you should be able to pass this class no problem. If you have questions, go ask her and she will help you.

Basically she expects you to show up in classes and do the homework. But definitely worth taking! She gives good lectures and welcomes questions. I'm taking her class for Calculus 2 next sem.

The homework is harder than class examples, but it helped me do well on the exams. so far. You better know your calculus before you take this course.

nice teacher

She is a very nice teacher. The first couple of days she may seem very harsh and scary, but she is actually really nice. The homework is defiantly harder then in class but it is easier than the test. I had taken calculus before in high school so I had no problem. My friend had never taken calculus and didn't have much of a problem passing.

A real teacher . she wants you to really LEARN the subject . She is at perfect speed, She is serious and super smart . DO NOT just read comments here and make judgement . She is the very first teacher I saw in America that REALLY teaches the class . SHE CARES ABOUT her students and if you really do study you will get your results back !

I have had the teacher teach me all three years of calculus. Calculus is a hard subject to study and if you are looking for a teacher that want to see you succeed then you need to take her. She cares about you learning and cares more then just your grade, if you put the effort you will be successful. If you just want an easy A go somewhere else.

I took Calculus with Bita over the summer. She is really intimidating at first, but really approachable during office hours. She seems really picky about showing work and how to do problems, but it pays off in the end. It was really helpful to meet with a tutor, and it's necessary to practice by yourself. All the hard work pays off.

She is nice teacher. I agree she is tough grader but she cares her students a lot. I like her class.

(very) strict class rules. Extra credit for those who show up. HW tends to scale well with in-class examples. Will explain the material in various ways for student learning. Has good range of office hours and is open to meet outside of them. She can be intimidating at first. Makes u wrk 4 grade. Hands down, one of the best math profs. at SFSU.

you have to do the hw, the problems she gives are related to her lectures. she is very strict with tardies and exams and quizzes, if you miss you, you dont have the chance to make them up. attendance is required for those who didn't miss a single day get extra credit 2% of your whole grade. there's no late hw. her lectures are good though.

Bita is one of the best math teachers I have ever had. If you're one of those students who hated your parents or bosses telling you what to do, you won't like her. She has strict rules that ensure her classroom is a learning environment. At the end of the day, you will learn something and have a good time doing it with Bita.

Best Calc 3 teacher by far. She cares about her students and will spend time to answer just about any question you have. I didn't use the book, but others did. She may come off as authoritative initially but that changes. Mild sense of humor with some sarcasm. Fair bit of HW. Quizzes are just like practice quizzes. Great human being overall.

She is AMAZING. She is the best math teacher in SFSU. She spent lots of time to care her students. I agree that she is strict. She has lots of rules but it would be good for you because she made good environment to study in classroom.

I love Bita so much as a teacher. She challenges you to do the thinking process and make math so much fun. But you need to have strong integration and derivatives skills and also doing calculations well without calculator in order to enjoy her class. Fyi, her office hours are bomb. So sad that I couldnt take her classes anymore :(

i love her, i wish she teaches all my engineering classes too

Bita is an amazing professor! At first she might come off as intimidating but once you get to know her, you realize she cares a lot about her students and will do her best to help you understand the material. Downside is that there are 4 exams including the final and it is very easy to fail if you don't do all the practice handouts. You will learn

I took Bita during Spring 2020 and she was amazing! Her lectures were clear and when we transitioned to Zoom she recorded supplementary lectures. Overall all she cares about is that you learn and are prepared for your next class. If you are looking for someone to care if you learn, take her! I wish she taught engineering classes!

I know some reviews say that she's really tough - she is, don't get me wrong on that. But she really does care about her students and she is open to questions and will answer them. She is quite literally, one of the best teachers I've ever had. I wish that she taught some engineering classes too!

She cares about teaching, and it's very evident. Not the easiest class, but would definitely take again!!
