one of the best professors i ever had.. very helpful and energetic in class. he explains the subject well and knows his stuff. He answers all of your questions by elaborating on it so the student undertand the topic. He is very Knowledgeable and very active in class. Highly recommend to take his class.
Dr. Rostami is GREAT, kind, and helpful. All lucky students take this professor. One of the best instructor at LAMC so far. you will never forget him very knowledgeable and cool.
Anatoy: It is the class that you have to study for. You have to be on top of the materials because this is a very diffficult subject and it needs alot of memorizing, but Professor Rostamy is a wonderful guy and he is very knowlagable. He is the best professor that i ever had. He makes you to sutdy hard but he will help you to be successful.
Dr. Rostami is awesome. Difficult to understand his accent for the first week but then you get used to it. Helpful, if you are willing to learn and goes the extra mile to make sure you are prepared for exams. You definitely have to read the book and study but his website offers tons of study material. Got an A this summer.
I was going to drop the class, but Doc Rostami convinced me to stay. I believe his best gift is that he teaches students to believe in themselves and though I was "out the door"he convinced me to stay and I learned that I love the subject. I found an area of Anatomy that I am obsessed with and will continue to study in and out of class, due to Prof
Love this teacher. His accent was difficult to understand the first day but you get used to it. I have learned more in his class then in BIO 3, and ANAT 1 altogether! He also gives you insight to Chem and Micro, Very Recommendable! Works with you to pass.
I don't even know, where to start with this professor. He is an amazing person first of all. He cares about all his students, always there to help no matter what. I have to say, he is my number one favorite teacher, awesome,fabulous, amazing. I took him for spring and the drive was worth it
What an amazing professor. This prof teaches because he cares about the students future NOT for a paycheck. I learned so much in this class. He is ALWAYS willing to help students. You NEED to study in order to pass, but he's always willing to help students who arent passing. He is AMAZING! I wished he taught all helth science course
Cares about his students and he is so SMART. Best prof ever!
He is an amazing one who really cares about his students. He loves his career and has a passion for what he does. He makes class fun so, all the stuffs will be digested easier.I really recommend every one to take his class.
He is a very kwoledgeable and energetic professor with good sense of humor. He wants his students to succeed.His website has a lot of useful material.In addition to tests, he gives quizes, which encourage students to study regularly. Dr.Rostami is there for students.He is patient and kind, but you have to study hard and be in class to get an A.
This professor is a Medical Doctor and his emphasis in teaching is for those of us heading towards the medical profession. He teaches what we need to know in the clinical setting. He is helpful, respectful and gives great advice on personal advancement and careers. If you study and attend his class, you will get a good grade.

Dr.Rostami is a very good teacher. He teaches very good and knows the subject very well. He helps you alot. He tries to help you in anyway he can. hes easy compared to many other professors.
THE BEST PROFESSOR YOU WILL EVER TAKE! He really cares about his students and will do everything he can to make sure you get a good grade. He has a lot of information and his lectures are fast, but he tells you what will be on the test. You do have to study and read the book to get an A. I wish I can take him for all my science classes.
The best professor I've ever had.He tries so hard to make all students to understand the subject. he helps you alot in everything. I was stuck between choosing dental or medical and he helped me to choose.also he inform you about all the programs in all the schools.if you study u would get an A.he really wants all students to pass with a good grade
he is the best Anatomy professor in this world. His class is really helpful. his tests are as he teaches in his classes
Loved him. The best teacher ever. Take him and you won't regret. I love you Dr. Rostami
Dr Rostami is a awesome professor.exams are based on lecture only so take good notes. i highly recommend recording lectures and retaking your own notes at home. exams are multiple choice. lab practicals are easy but put the time into it and stay for the entire lab time. it pays off. One of the best professor at Mission College so far. Report
He is extremely knowledegeable, smart, caring, cool, fun & helpful. He lectures fast, but will gladly answer any questions & doesnt move on until you understand. Tests are based on lecture & are MC. He reviews before every lecture & lab exam. He is there to help and wants everyone to learn and pass with a good grade. He is simply BEYOND AMAZING!
BEST PROFESSOR HANDS DOWN! I wish he taught Physiology! Exams and quizzes are MC, labs are written, but he reviews before anything to make sure you understand. It's Anatomy, you NEED to read and pay attention. It's an overall easy class if you put the time and effort into it. Very dedicated prof.
Dr. Mansour is a great professor,very knowledgeable, energetic,and a passionate teacher.He cares about the success of his students and is willing to go the extra miles to help everyone succeed.He is beyond amazing he makes it easy and fun.He makes sure everyone understands and repeats a lot so we learn it very well.I love u Dr. Mansour.ur the best.
Dr.Mansour is awesome,he is passionate about teaching,caring,and full of knowledge.I wish he is teaching physio.He makes it fun,interesting,and simple.He repeats the materials until everyone learns it.The best professor i ever had.Love u Dr.Mansour.
Dr. Rostami, he is a man of knowledge, kindness and energy that will only motivate you to learn. He gives you the confidence to succeed. You have to work hard and he will work hard with you. Amazing class. I wish he could be my teacher the whole step of the way. You will learn so much from him. Be wise and study and he will help you to understand.
Dr. Rostami is the most AMAZING professor I ever had. He is very knowledgeable and kind. He wants all his students to succeed. He is the BEST Anatomy professor. We love you Dr. Rostami!
Prof Rostami is one of the best lecturers I have ever met.All he cares about is that his students understand what he teaches. He does not mind explaining a topic a million times as long as his students understand.I wish more lecturers are like him.
Dr. Rostami is one of the best, if not the best, professors I've ever have had in my entire academic life (ccs, ucla). Anatomy is a difficult subject and he knows what he's talking about, but what's even more important is that he can communicate all his knowledge effectively to his students. Consider yourself VERY LUCKY if you ever have Dr. Rostami
Loved this guy!!! Great Professor! If you show up and he sees you are trying and working hard, he will give you a good grade. He really wants you to know and understand the material more than just studying to pass his test. Very informative and funny too!
This professor is just amazing! He is clear, efficient, and passionate when you're in his class. He explains everything and gives examples of the scenarios he's been through in his practice. If you attend class everyday, pay attention, and study you WILL get a passing grade in his class. He's the best science professor I have ever taken in Mission!
DR.Rostami Is the best Professor EVER! If you want to learn please take his class. He teaches with such passion and you actually learn a lot in his class. I have been in his class for a month, I don't even know what my grade will be but I enjoy every second of his class. He will help you in and out of class! his the king of the king. BEST EVER!!!
He is a good professor; not only does he teach anatomy well, you will be prepared for physiology after taking his class. Afterall, anatomy is just remembering names- its not that hard.
Hands down this is the best professor ever!!!! If you attend class and put effort he will help you out like no other. I highly recommend everyone to take his class. If your new or returning to Anatomy he is the professor you need to take. Trust me.
Dr. Rostami is the best professor. He will help every student out if you attend class and make him see you are dedicated. You will have quizzes, 3 exams MC, 3 lab practicals. No need for textbook he provides slides. I recommend him. Take him he is a very outgoing and nice person. I got an A in the class. You won't regret taking him.
Dr. Rostami, is an excellent professor. He really cares about his students. He came to class after days of finding out his mom passed. Now that is dedication. He is nice but never try to cheat on his tests you will pay. He is fun and intelligent and he gives great advice for careers in healthcare field. Love this Professor you will too.
Dr. Rostami, is king of the king as he puts it. He really cares about his students, he came to class after his mom passed away, That is dedication!! He is passionate, fun, caring, and super intelligent, nice but never try to cheat on his tests. He gives great advice for careers in healthcare field. He is the best!! wish he was teaching physiology
Dr. Rostami is the best professor ever!! He is passionate, intelligent, kind, and wants every student to do well in his class. He's like finding a diamond in the rough, his class and lab were so fun!! 64 people were in our class and nobody dropped, if you're on the border for an A at the end, he will give it to you, if you come to class daily.
Best professor ever
Absolutely the best!!!! Anatomy is a tough subject but Dr Rostami is very helpful and really cares about his students. I wish he was teaching physiology. Must take!! If he sees you are trying hard he will help you get a higher grade. You won't regret taking him!!
He took over our class after our professor had to take time off.. He is so smart funny and cute;) He gives you career advice and he always says who cares about the A but what matters is that u actually learn . We drove him crazy but he hung in there I learned a lot and got an A which I worked hard for.. Thanx Professor Rostami!!
Pros: very passionate, gives tutorials, provides additional info beyond ppt, curves. Cons: can be all over the place, doesn't stick to tutorials, quite a few ?s not covered in class show up on exams. If u like accents, drama, entertainment & surprises, u will enjoy him (get xtra resources!). If u want solid knowledge base, wd recom another prof.
Professor Rostami is great. He wants the best for his students and helps them out a lot. But the exams are tough and you have to read just not the powerpoints but the book because the test were more about the book. Like most comments say below he won't go over some info and it shows up in the exams still and he moves really really fast so study !
Dr Rostami is an excellent instructor. He has good knowledge of Anatomy and Physiology. He is very helpful. If he thinks you try your best and participate you will get a good grade.
Dr. Rostami is what I call the diamond of education. I've never in my life came across a professor who loves what he does and values education as much as him. He explained medical cases as well. I'm really lucky to have taken this class. Of course each class has lazy and confuse students to complain. Anatomy is difficult you must study hard.
Our class is over populated so I wasn't able to experience him as others did. He gave us too many tests to get people to drop, which I understand. Lecture exams are tough you need to study! Lab: ASK ALL THE QUESTIONS he is willing to help you no matter how many times you reask. Get the lab book instead of textbook saves$$ & basically the same!
love how he is for the students and will help you out if you are struggling. His website is unbelievably confusing it takes you a while to find anything and some slides in lecture are really hidden in his site or not on there.
Dr. Rostami is one of the best professors at Mission college. His lectures are tough but you will learn. He makes sure you learn the material. Lab was clear and he was willing to help. I'm so glad i took him, i worked really hard for my grade. Some people took advantage of his kindness and didnt deserve to be in his class.
Dr. Rostami is a really good professor. Honestly, the subject is hard on its own and so he really does his best to make sure you understand. He will do his absolute best to make sure you pass the class, some ppl take advantage of that. As long as you go to class, and pay attention, you should pass. Your grade is based mainly on exams.
Doctor Rostami is amazing. He will help you as many times as you ask him in lab. He is so motivational and caring towards his students. I honestly felt like he cared for each and every student and wants to genuinely help you reach your goal if you are willing to work REALLY HARD. Anatomy is a really tough subject but he will guide you through it.
His lectures were great and very entertaining. You must study for the exams they can be very difficult !!! Overall, I thought he was a great professor.
Very caring professor but hard to understand. Lectures were given at the speed of light and its unclear what to cover. Felt as though most of the tests were not even from the material we covered and that's that I purchased the book, access code, labs AND youtube. Ace the lab practicals you will need them to pass.
The best Pro. Awesome.
Other student said: "Dr. Rostami is what I call the diamond of education. I've never in my life came across a professor who loves what he does and values education as much as him. He explained medical cases as well." Really it's true, never I like science but this guy make it very interesting. Be honest he is awesome.
Dr Rostami is caring. But other than that I was very disappointed. On the lab part I did amazing but not on the lecture part . No matter how much a studied I was succeeded on the exams and the reason is because he doesn't make his own exams he gets them online ... he also has preferences for certain people.
Dr. Rostami is one of the best and the most knowledgeable professor I have ever had. He is extremely nice and knows every single detail about the subject whether it is Anatomy or Physiology. His tests are straightforward. He truly wants you to do well and cares about his students. Definitely would take him again and as many times as I could.
DR. ROSTAMI IS TRULY THE IDEAL PROFESSOR ONE CAN ASK FOR. HE MAKES IT HIS PRIORITY TO ENSURE HIS STUDENTS HAVE A CLEAR UNDERSTANDING OF THE SUBJECT HE IS COVERING. HIS ULTIMATE GOAL IS TO PREPARE HIS STUDENTS ON THEIR JOURNEY TO BECOMING SUFFICIENT, INTELLIGENT, & RESPECTED CLINICIANS. IF ONE CAN EXPERIENCE HIS TEACHING METHODS THEY ARE LUCKY.
Dr. Rostami is the best professor ever!! He is passionate, intelligent, kind, and wants every student to do well in his class. He's like finding a diamond in the rough, his class and lab were so fun!
Anatomy is not an easy class, but what makes it easy and fun at 7 am is Dr. Rostami. He is very knowledgeable and really cares about he's students. What I loved about this class he would give life examples to make everybody understand. Tests are not easy but if you study an A is possible .Great class, take him you won't regret it ,thank you Doc :)
This is the only science professor I've had who truly cares about his students. He is extremely educated and will always bring up medical topics during class. I can't believe the amount I've learned. Oh did I mention he's hilarious??? I usually do not like most professors, but I give this man an A+!
Literally best professor I've ever taken. You will learn about the body in fun new ways. He cares about his students and will help you achieve an A.
great professor, he test are a bit difficult 100 question. Timed. Lab exam are timed 60sec a question. Lab is fun you pretty much learn on your own. He goes through it fast so try to record. Very rarely he curves. He hates if you talk in his class or leave to the bathroom so handle your business before hand. Tough guy but i learned alot
Tough professor, took him in winter. Goes through Class fast, but hes pretty straight foward. Lab u do need to memorize all ur stuff but he gives hints on what to focus on more. Test are hard so study and read the book. He hates when u talk during exams and he does give assigned seating. Cheat and he kicks you out of class. Definitely take him!!!
I personally wouldn't take a class with him again because his exams do not match his lecture slides. His exams are all 100 questions long and some questions don't add up with his lecture slides. Lab is mainly used to study on your own. He truly does care about his students however I had to self teach myself.
One of the best Anatomy / Physiology professors at Mission. Well if your trying to get into the Medical field, you need this class regardless. He truly made me fall in love the material, heavy material, about five hours of studying, he will help you if you need help, and hes really funny. BEWARE of the 100 multiple choice question exams!!! STUDY!!!
At first his teaching gave me anxiety but you adapt to it. Took him over summer & you def had to work hard to earn your grade. He provides all the materials you need to study and succeed in class but if you don't put in the effort studying for the practicals and the exams, it won't be a breeze. He wants to help those who want to try and work hard
Prof Rostami is the best! I took his Anatomy class over the summer and it was honestly hard. He goes at a fast pace and the material given is heavy so you def have to work hard to earn your grade. Anatomy is a hard subject in general but if you devote your time to studying, you'll do good. If he sees you working hard, he will def help you out!
It was an honor to be part of this class Anatomy its a tough course however this professor will inspire you and guide you throughout the course The lab its prepares very organize in order for to learn the material well The class consists of three lecture exams and a final and three practical Study the powers points and attend class
The Best Professor! very educated....
Literally the best professor I've ever had. Gives you all the resources you need to succeed, and the best part is that he truly does care about your success. The exams are only "hard" because he doesn't create them; they're given to him by the department but they're easy to pass if you actually study and make an effort. 100% would take again.
Dr. Rostami is the BEST choice when it comes to taking Anatomy. He has a very generous curve on exams, especially if the class doesn't do well on exams. He gives you a glimpse of what questions will appear on the exam and lab exam which I found to be EXTREMELY helpful. He's an amazing person with a sense of humor. I couldn't be more grateful.
He is one of the best, caring and very educated, super nice. Study hard Anatomy is not easy subject, practice the models. Take it.
Great professor! Funny and entertaining. Made Anatomy fun. Dont miss class, take notes, read the book, study and take advantage of Lab time, you will pass!!! He gives you the tools, you need to put in the work!!!
GREAT CLASS !!! honestly one of the best teachers at mission, he cares about his students and wants everyone to succeed... he'll help you out if he sees you trying!! Stay to study during labs and complete your lab book!! it will help you, he is funny and it's never a dull moment with him.
Dr. Rostami's most important feature is his sincerity and the fact that he thinks of students as his own family members! Always being kind is better than being right! God bless him!
Great Professor! He genuinely cares about the future success of his students and is very educated! Very understanding and gives you everything you need to succeed in the class. If you make an effort and study you will pass the class. Would definitely take him again.
Cant say enough about the man - he is AWESOME. VERY knowledgeable and caring. You WILL learn a lot from him. Lectures seem crazy; youll see that he is about repetition to get you to remember things and humorous! Take advantage of the lab time to study the models! You cannot get a better professor for this subject - TRUST!
The test are very hard, you should read a lot but he usually curves them but a lot and you actually stay awake in class with his jokes
I love Dr Rostami he is best professor I have ever had in science class, he is caring about his students. I would highly recommend him.
Best Professor I have had in a very long time!!
It was a pleasure having Dr. Mansour as my Anatomy professor. He makes his class so fun and it's easy to follow along. Dr. Mansour is very understanding, he has strong intentions in your future career and is always accessible when you don't understand something. I WOULD RECOMMEND HIM 100%!!!!! BTW, his jokes will keep you awake at 7:00 am, haha!
By far I have to say he is one of my most favorite Science professor that I had. He takes his time to explain the subject and answers any questions you may have. Take his class if you can, and you will not regret it.
Thumbs up to Prof. Rostami! Due to Covid-19 everything was moved online mid semester so it was somewhat easy and difficult but if you listen to all his zoom lectures and use this study guides youll pass. If you have any questions ASK HIM, he is so respectful and just wants his students to pass with good grades!
He's chill, however I took him over the Summer20 session during COVID-19. Students beware with his tutors, he has people proctoring the exams. You need to look at the camera at all times, he will fail you if you look somewhere else. In addition, his accent is hard to understand whats he saying. Beware or take someone else.
I like how no one mentioned that his Exams were proctored, and in order for you to take the Exam You NEED A CAMERA. U Need to look at the screen at all times AND!!! his exams were timed!!! He is really bad professor, he's useless all he cares is about his stupid check ONLY.
Not enough characters to describe Rostami. He is absolutely the best and during this pandemic he put all students first. Take him if you have the chance, you wont regret it. His accent helped things stick and always gives helpful examples. I love him, God bless this man forever
Hes awesome. Really cares about you succeeding and knowing the material rather than a grade. Communicates with you and answers all questions, replies to emails within 24hrs, and hes so for the student and will fight the school for you no matter what LOL (within reasoning IMO) His lectures are heavy but he means well and knows his stuff and CARES.
Dr. Rostami is the best instructor for Anatomy/physiology courses. Very smart and knowledgeable professor. Please be honest and do not DO anything wrong. All quizzes and exams will be monitor by Canvas and Zoom. Take him, he did support my application for Dental school. I am in DS. God Bless you Dr. Rostami.
THE BEST
He is the one to take for anatomy/physio. Communicate with him & show him you want that A! He prepares you 100% for exams, and he has a lot of material available for you to study. His classes get full fast though, so add quickly!
Professor Rostami cares about his students. Although he can come across little intimidating, hes a really caring person. Dont hesitate to ask questions, or ask for help. He gives out extra credit, motivates you to try your hardest , and helps you out tons by going over what will be on the exams and labs, he wants to see his students succeed (:
Dr. Rostami is a really good instructor. He's the best. He really cares about his students success. He's knowledgeable professor. I would absolutely take his class again, totally recommend him.
Dr. Rostami is an MD so he knows this stuff very well. He also lectures well and genuinely cares about his students and their futures, particularly if they're going into a health profession. I cannot overemphasize what a quality professor he is - I highly recommend anyone especially those going into medicine to take one of his courses.
One of the best science instructor, very knowledgeable and fair. I emailed him and he respond me very fast, the zoom was mandatory. Hard class if you don't study.
I absolutely love professor Rostami. His classes were super interesting all the time and he is super caring with his students. He is also super smart and knowledgeable and that was pretty inspirational for me. The best!
Great professor, and his lectures are really great and in great detail. His exams are pretty lengthy but if you show up to class then you should be prepared for the exams. The practicals on the other hand are really tricky, be very careful with them.
He was really good, most of his test had pictures pointing at a certain part.
Dr. Rostami was an amazing professor. He always looked out for his students. He catered to our needs and understood that most of us were working students. The workload is manageable and allows you to learn the material rather than crunch everything in. Very caring! The best anatomy instructor out there
Dr. Rostami was one of the best professors I've had. He is very knowledgeable and funny and cares a lot about his students successes. Highly recommend taking him for Biology!
