Professor Rahnamaie is one of the best math professors I have ever had. Calculus is not an easy subject but she puts in the effort to make sure the material is understood. She goes over what will be on her tests days before the test to give the class time to prepare. her group work acts as a nice grade buffer. No quizzes. What a wonderful teacher!

She is a very nice person. She is helpful but you have to do the work. Testes are fair enough.

I enjoyed her personality; she's fun. Although, I pretty much learned the course by myself. Notes help little, and some days you take 1 pg. to none. She is there for you if you go to office hours. Excessive amounts of H.W. where 12 the time you don't even know how to begin. She rambles wo teaching, is sloppy, doesn't keep her word, confusing.

She is an amazing prof. People saying she is not good at her job either didnt put in the time or shouldn't be doing a major that requires the knowledge of calculus. Not everyone is intelligent enough to be a STEM major and some people havn't accepted that yet. If you love math you will love her class.

She is one of the best professor at Moorpark. Her class is amazingly interesting and easy. If you understand her its and easy A. Just doing all the homework you can get an A.

Professor Rahnamaie is an awesome teacher!! I had no experience with calc in high school and I did fine in her honors class. If you are an engineering student then I would recommend taking her because you will learn Calc 1 like the back of your hand!! If you want an easy A then don't take her because she is going to make you work for your grade.

Prof. Rahnamaie is very good. She does not throw you curve balls. If you pay attention in lecture, and do the homework, and study, you should pass. She is very clear on what she expects of you, and her tests are very fair. She cares about her students, when many other math professors dont. She does give partial credit, which is VERY nice.

Prof. Rahnamaie is very good. But I will say this, I was in her honors class and math is not my strong suit, so if that is the case, It is a very time intensive class. I was in 17 units trying to fit this class in and though possible, it is EXTREMELY tough. However, she is a good teacher, funny, that cares about her students. Very straight forward.

She's absolutely amazing in the way she teaches. Very clear in how she wants you to solve a problem which is usually the easiest way, encourages you to ask questions. She is even willing to explain the algebra part of the problem to students who have poor arithmetic. So far the best math teacher i have had and i would take again

An AMAZING teacher. Calc 2 is definitely a hard class, but she always tried her absolute best to make it understandable. She's definitely a character, always so funny and sarcastic, and the class environment was always lively. Although she is no longer teaching, I wanted to give her the review she deserved. Thank you for everything Ms. Rahnamaie.

One of the best teachers I've had in my academic career. I am by no means a math person and struggle with the subject but her lectures made calculus bearable. She's like a personal cheer leader rooting for you every step of the way. Only thing I didn't like was the partner work at the end of class.
