Professor Nassimi is kind, smart and knows how to teach. He care about his students and give plenty of extra credit for those who are committed to the class and dedicated to learn. Never had experience like this in my entire educational career. If you want to learn and have a solid background in MATH, then Mr. Nassimi is your choice

I struggled so much with this class! It was a little fast paced for me and I had trouble keeping up. However, Professor Nassimi was very patient and kind and genuinely cares for his students. There are so many opportunities for extra credit, and he is always willing to help if you ask for it. He motivates to not give up. I'm glad I didn't.

Professor Nassimi M has a vast knowledge of what he is teaching. He is very professional, he tries as much to explain over and over in class. He is well aware of the fact he is teaching mixed ages population especially older adults so he is quite compassionate,if you go to class, listen to lectures, do homework -you pass. He cracks clean jokes .

Professor Masoud Nassimi the smartest mathematics teacher Ive ever met and has a sense of humor. His class is difficult (not dummy friendly) but you will learn a lot from him, if you put in the effort and time. Professor Masoud Nassimi class, there is tons of homework, quizzes, and extra credit. (The quizzes are short, only 5 problems or less.)

Professor wrote a book containing his lectures that explained the study materials. This book really helped me understand the math, unlike any other books that Ive read before. Professor was always happy to help students to go over any questions that they had. All of my classmates successfully finished this course because we enjoyed his class.

Business calculus has been by far the most difficult class I have ever taken. With that being said, Professor Nassimi was so patient and understanding. He gives out pop quizzes but hints when you should expect them. I would highly recommend this professor. Just participate, be present, and ask questions- he was so helpful throughout the semester.

He has been the worst professor I've had. He now does online Live classes and has bad signal, constantly getting dropped making it hard to understand him. He doesn't teach he just gives lectures of the lectures you have to watch for each section. You ask for guidance and he says to Google it or look it up on YouTube or sometimes struggles 2 explain

If you want to feel lost and helpless through out the entire semester then take this online college algebra class. Lectures are insanely boring and you learn nothing at all. Everything is on pearson and lectures aren't even recorded due to "legal reasons" even though every other math teacher does so. This class is basically a waste of time.
