In order to pass attend every class. His lecture notes are questions on his tests. One research paper. If you have good attendance, take this class and take good notes to past.

Very interesting and smart man. Doesn't speak english too well, but he will repeat anything you need him to. Class consists of one 6 page paper and 2 test. Just go to class and take good notes and the class is no problem. I got an A.

His english isn't perfect, but he repeats anything you ask. he has a good sense of humor and he goes pretty easy on you. I'd suggest him to anyone who needs a philosophy class. You just need to take notes and you're set.

The research paper isn't fun at all.

cool guy, always willing to help. grades papers easy, but the final is pretty tough. don't take this class if you never plan on attending.

amazing course and teacher. don't take this class if you plan on skipping. it's too interesting to want to miss. just study hard and research your paper and you'll get an A.

this guy is cool... there is no book for the class so you save some $$$ and if you just go to class you will do fine... there is one paper and two tests which are essay and they arent that hard... very interesting to listen to but at the same time makes you sleepy if you dont care to listen to him..

This teacher is great! His class is easy if you attend because his lectures are EXACTLY what is on the exams. he even points out wut will be on the exam- no surprises. He makes the material pretty interesting and there's no book to buy!!!

Good teacher overall, very clear on what he wants and his lectures are interesting. He is a little bit overboard with precision, but a nice guy.

This class has only 2 test. The early test and a final. The only thing left if the 35 point essay, which isn't bad at all, all you have to do is be a critic and give justifications on your opinions of a newspaper article. He's such a nice man too!

This was surprisingly my most interesting class, He really is a great teacher, and if you go to all the classes and write the notes you can get an A. There were only two test and one 5 page paper. The test were pretty easy with only 3 or 4 essay questions, and the paper is just opinion.

LEARNED MUCH IN THIS CLASS, LOVE HIS ACCENT AND HE SUCH A WISE MAN,,,KNOWS HIS STUFF,,,I GOT A "B" IN HIS COURSE NOT W/ MUCH EFFORT,,,

he is a good teacher. he is easy to follow, and his lectures were interesting. made me like philosphy alot more, and sparked my interest. very helpful and funny.

He is a nice guy and sometimes pretty funny but the class itself can be extremely dull at times. Just go to class and takes notes to get a good grade.

You have to know exactly what you're doing on the tests bc he is strict on precision. The material is too technical. Class is based on a midterm, final, and paper. All you have to do is show up and pay attention. He's a nice guy and has interesting views.

Great professor! Knows what he's talking about. Yeah on occasions he has his opinion but who doesn't & he only does to get our minds going so we can talk about it. His class is pretty interesting. Make sure you take a lot of notes b/c you'll need it for the midterm (2 short answer and essay) & final (5 essays). Just know the basic idea for the exam

Awesome prof. Leads intriguing discussions and entertains his students.

He is really nice and helpfull. Most of the time you have to go to class. Dont need to buy a book.

He's kinda wierd, but a good wierd cause sometimes he makes funny remarks.. it's easy go to class and write down everything he says and memorize it for the midterm and final... one term paper but it's an agree/disagree type of paper..easy stuff.. midterm was a joke..

After failing two tests, I dropped out. Next semester I took same class at a community college & received A. This teacher makes the material harder than it should be and all his exams are essay type questions.

Great professor!!! One midterm, one research paper, and the final. Go to class all the time and take good notes. Great class to realize reality.

many people are forced to drop his class. my fav class of the semester but not very clear on what he wants. i learned alot (thats what college is about, right?) but had to drop.

Easy A if you see things his way.

He's so awesome. At first I didn't like his class at all, and had no interest in the subject of philosophy. However, he quickly changed my mind. He's really good and he's very nice. U can pass if you miss classes but it's a lot of work to catch up, so try not to. REALLY good class, great guy, funny, easy to understand. I got an A.

The first couple weeks of class I was like "WTF I cant understand his accent, he's too uptight, this sucks." But when I got used to his accent and got to know his personality, he became a really cool guy! The stuff we learn is SOOO interesting I loved it! If you are a good essay writer you will ace his class, if not, don't count on it.

Once you get past the accent, he's not so bad. He really knows his stuff and gives extra credit to students who put their two cents in. He knows his essay exams are tough but if you dont miss class, you'll know exactly what he's looking for.

He is a really interesting man, has a lot of stories, and is well educated. Just pay attention in class, the tests do consist of essays but they are pretty straight forward. There is one 6 page essay assignment, which only serves to boost your grade.

Easy grader with the article section. Other parts are a bit difficult, but if you go to class and work on them it is easy. Can be a little harsh sometimes, but overall an easy teacher.

Easy grader. Just show up for class and take good notes. Volunteer to read and answer his questions. Don't be shy. There are no wrong/stupid answers in philosophy. He welcomes them. Easy A.

He is a bery nice teacher, very helpful and the stuff isn't that hard if you listen in class.

i loved this guy! he is so interesting and really has a passion for teaching philosophy. rather than reading from a text book he gives his own examples and explanations that make a lot more sense than any book. i'd suggest him to anyone just as long as you show up more than half the time and put in your 2 cents every now and then. great teacher!

I really liked him. He was a great professor. People got frustrated because of his accent, but it wasn't really a big deal. As long as you actively participate in the class and show that you aren't stupid, you'll do fine.

This is not an easy class! However he's a good teacher, and he is very clear on his expectations. Take a lot of notes and prepare well for his essay exams, and you'll do fine.

this guy isnt really that hard. his accent isnt that bad either. i got a B in the class but it was only cause i didnt study for the midterm. if not i coulda got an A. but its up to you. u dont need the book its worthless. u only need it when isung it in class and thats it. there is only one midterm, a term paper, and a final. pretty simple.

This class is quite interesting...Dr. Khazaee presents the subject in such a way that makes me want to think. It is easier in the beginning, as are most classes, but becomes more challenging later on. You gotta pay attention and study well for the midterms, which are more about knowing how to answer the ?'s than the usual memorization.

The best and greatest!

The grading system is somewhat scary because he only grades three things in the entire class but He is quite lenient. Great professor.

he is extremely intimidating. BUT overall a great professor. surprisingly he grades fair/easy on tests and term papers.

Taking notes is a must, but everything's easy as long as you pay attention. His accent is definitely not as bad as the other reviewers wrote, I thought he was very easy to understand. He seemed very, very passionate about the class, about ethics, Nietzsche and Marx -- that made the class and lectures really interesting for me.

Definitely not as bad as everyone said. He is an easy grader, but very heavy on participation. Lets you leave early most days. Tests and midterms extremely easy. If you're smart, this class is an easy A

Great professor. Go to class and take good notes and you will be fine. Very passionate and knowledgeable about what he teaches. Definitely a class worth taking.

not as bad as everyone made him out to be. his accent was clear. the class was easy, usually let's out a little early. very interesting class. you will need the textbook a few weeks out of the term. he does have favorites though but anyone can be one if you just participate (which he's really big on)

He is a very good preofessor. Taught me a lot about ethics in many areas. I aced his midterm, paper, and final. Not hard to do if he gives you the answers to his tests and specific instructions for his paper. You don't need to make him know who you are, it is useless He doesn't want to know names. He does read what you write and will recognize peop

He is an easy grader! very easy if you come to class and take his notes. Midterm, Paper and Exam is extremely easy if you take notes!

He class was kind of challenging at first. little mistakes hurt me on the midterm and on the final it was hard. but surprisingly i got a B. he is a easy grader when i comes to the essay.

Great teacher. There is not a lot of information in this class, so make sure you learn everything he gives you. He literally gives you the exact questions on the tests a week before. If you show up and take notes its extremely hard not to get an A.

He's serious about everyones education and grade. his notes are EXACTLY what he wants u to do on the exams so class attendance is mandatory. hes interested when u ask him questions or participating in class (or at least act like u want to know more). Easy grader. Tried to be funny but sometimes hes..weird. i got an A just from studying his notes.

He may be a little testy with an accent sometimes, but Khazaee is behind his students as long as you put in the effort. He's a Great Guy who loves Continential Philosophy and it's ashame that he only teaches Lower-Division courses most of the time. I ended up getting an A out of Existentialism, and it was a Great Course overall!!!

Very easy class, we spent a lot of time on certain subjects, so it gets a little redundant but its helpful when it comes to tests and the paper. It was an easy A for me, but i did have to study a little. Dont go in too confident, underestimating the class can hurt your grade

His accent made it difficult to understand the material at first, but you get used to it quickly. He grades easy. That is, if you take notes and remember them for the exams, then it will be an easy A. I would be willing to bet he doesn't even read the papers. As long as it is long enough and on time you should get an A. He knows his stuff!!!

Greatest Professor ever! Extremely knowledgeable and passionate about Continental Philosophy, particularly Existentialism and its precursors. He knows so much about Nietzsche, Marx and Political Philosophy in general. He says some of the craziest things - and the way he dresses is just awesome! I highly recommend taking any class he offers.

Its a critical thinking class, so unlike other teachers, he is not afraid to challenge your views. Yes, he is at times a bit blunt, but it's entertaining at times. His tests count for virtually all the grade as expected from a college course, and the topics he covers are VERY interesting. Do consider this course as a refreshing addition to your GE

He is a bit intimidating but you soon realize he's actually a sweet guy. He wants you to succeed and will assign his midterm when he feels the class is ready for it. The class is really interesting and he loves participation. No txtbook so take REALLY good notes and try not to miss class. 1 midterm, 1 paper (topic of your choosing), and the final.

You need the worksheet and book for class! First half is easy and the midterm is from the sheet so just memorize that. Second half you read and get in groups. Last you analyze quotes. He is very rude sometimes so I hardly talked because I was scared. One paper, easy grader, then final. No presentations. He's ok just make sure to study. Gives EC

There is little studying needed for exams if you attend class everyday and attempt all the in-class activities because the exams are exactly like them. Dr. Khazaee is a nice person as long as you don't say anything stupid. I recommend him since there is no HW and you don't have to read anything out of class to get an A or B.

Khazaee is an extremely good teacher. He focuses his class on 3 things arguments, article analyzation, & Language Functions. You have 1 test on the arguments which isn't that hard if U attend class & practice doing the arguments in the packet. A paper counts for the midterm. The final isn't too hard he will tell U what's on it.

Very sarcastic and will openly challenge your ideas in class. Other than that the class was pretty easy the final was the most difficult part.

Khazee tells you how it is, and isn't afraid to argue with you in front of everyone. It's all with good intentions though! There's only a midterm, one essay, and a final. It's kind of difficult .. but you get used to it. At least there's no homework!

If you are looking for a real philosophy class, this isn't it. If you're looking for an easy class, this is it. Throughout the year there is three main units he focuses on. Theyre pretty easy but it can get a bit boring. Khazaee is a kook but he's a pretty chill guy.

This professor is not as bad as the other comments make him seem. If you expect to pass a class by not showing up, not participating, and not giving an effort. Then why are you in college? If you do try you will pass this class easily with an A. His teaching methods are simple.

I should be the procrastinator king(I should be studying). With that said, I got an A. Last minute both wrote the paper(A) and studied for the final. So, yeah it's an easy A. A pointer: this is a logic class, so your opinion has to be followed by facts(many people fail to see this). I did more work in a 1 unit kin class than here.

He is very clear on what he grades on, and class attendance will earn you 10% of your grade, so it's advised that you attend. You learn a lot of the test material in class as well. There is one 4-6 page paper that you MUST follow his directions when writing it, or he will mark down your grade. Pay attention and learn in class and you will be fine.

Very unique guy. He does tend to put people on the spot but only if you don't follow directions. The material may be hard for some people to grasp since he likes things to be very specific. Only grades a midterm, midterm essay, and a final, but gives extra credit if the whole class does well. Just follow directions and you should be fine.

Professor Khazaee is a nice guy. He only calls out students when their doing something their not supposed to like on their phones. Class is easy and clear. 1 paper, 1 mid-term, and 1 final. He gives you potential questions for midterm and final. Fairly easy grader. For the paper you MUST follow the guidelines.

Definitely a unique professor. Repeats a lot of what he says and goes over topicsquestions for the midterm and the final so I suggest you pay very close attention on those days and write everything he says so you can plan out your essays before the test. Need to put in time to study for the tests, but overall, I got an A.

great professor! he might come off as a very strict teacher, but he does have moments when he is funny. The lectures are the key to passing this class bc the tests are based off of them. he gives you all the potential test questions. the tests might only be 7 questions, but they are basically like short essays. this class is passable.

Definitely unique man, rude, but funny, great criticism, intends to make you better, don't take it personal. Slow teaching, but helps with processing Clear grading criteria, clear in expectations and teaching, 1 test, no hw, but midterm 4-6 pg essay, cumulative final, discussion class, skip 1 to 2 days and it won't hurt. totally recommend him

Fairly tough class but that's in part to how unusual this subject is. The concepts learned aren't difficult, just hard to be tested on. Khazaee as a person is hard to describe. He can be critical and rude at times. He doesn't always respond normally when asked questions. Simply put he's not very personable and just a different guy. Decent overall

This class was so easy for me. It's important to show up for lectures, take thorough notes, and follow directions. He gives test questions beforehand, and it's important to take the time to practice your responses at home. His honesty was refreshing, although moody and borderline immature at times.

As long as you apply yourself and participate, Dr. Khazaee will let you know what you need to do to improve and he appreciates the effort. If you do not make yourself known, it will be much more difficult to excel.

This class can be difficult because there is only the midterm, essay, final, and participation that goes into the grade. I showed up to every class and although I had to study a lot for the midterm I did receive an A. Attendance is not mandatory but he explains everything clearly in class and it can not be understood if you don't show up.

Despite the other comments, I think Khazaee was a great professor. Graded on participation, one midterm, one essay, and the final. The first midterm should be relatively easy considering the questions were from the ones we did in class. He tries to give everyone A's on the essay. Show up to class every week, miss a few times, class will not be hard

Everyone always complains about him but this class is easy. Rarely went to class, he didn't take attendance and gave everyone a free 10% for participation. 1 paper & his grading is extremely lenient. midterm was prob the most difficult bc you either know it or you don't. Final wasn't bad. He is very sarcastic in class but nice during office hrs

To do well in the class, you need to take notes, word for word and just memorize it. There's midterm, final, and a paper in the middle of semester. The paper is pretty simple. Midterm requires short paragraphs and final was short answer and 4 essays. Study what he tells you to study. WORD for WORD. Then you will be fine.

He is very passionate about philosophy. He grades on a few things which is simple if you just study for a day of 2 on 5 questions. The reading isn't hard it's interesting if you like to know more about the ideas behind each subjected learned. His lectures are actually intriguing. It is best to participate. He seems a bit mean at time...
