Her teaching skills are still in progress, so many times you get homework problems that were never taught in class. She is not clear in her lessons, and many times you just feel like she doesn't know what she is talking about. Other then that her exams are fairly easy if you study the material yourself.

Looking for a good grade, take her. Offers a lot of extra credit and she explains things well. She splits everything up into a lot of small tests so you don't have to remember as much stuff on tests and she drops your lowest test score, just another way she tries to help your grade.

great teacher that cares about students. make sure you attend her office hours for any problems. and study the group work and the work-along sheets really well. she might drop one exam if you guys did 4-5 exams if its needed. make sure you do the workalongs and understand each problem there nd can do similar once.

I've had Razmehr since Precalc 1 and she's honestly the best. I took another teacher for Calc 1 in the summer and it made me appreciate her so much more. You get extra credit when you do homework a day early. A lot of people complain that her test are hard but you just need study for it. Grades on attendance but is good if you have low test scores.

I came into Calc. 2 devastated about by Calc. 1 performance, but even though I worked hard for it, I want to credit Mrs. Razmehr for helping me believe that I can do Math again. She's straightforward in her teaching, so understanding, and I'm not lying when I say that her office hours are always memorable. Take her, work hard, and you'll PASS!!!!

Attendance points means you can't miss any class. Homework is time consuming. Tests are newly written each time. She will take points off for any notation error. Her lectures are so good that none of this should be an issue. If you can't work this hard in calculus, you're in for a rude awakening with other STEM classes. Best math TEACHER.

Such a wonderful teacher, I was going through the worst quarter I have ever taken and she helped me through it. She is very kind and understanding will do anything to help you learn and understand. Calculus for me, in general, was a difficult subject but she made it understandable for me. Her workalongs are amazing and I would definitely recommend.

Quizzes and exams made up a majority of the grade. Lessons were monotonous and questions were poorly answered with late responses to emails. She skips a lot of steps and makes it more confusing. You'd be better off teaching yourself which is what most had to do anyway

Please skip her class. I took math 111 with her and that was one of my the worst class I ever had. I am saying that because of a lot homework, daily quizzes, test are too heavy and there is no extra credit as well.

Honestly never had this worse of a professor and I'm not just saying this bc I don't like putting in work. I've always been an A student and never had problems with professors but she just made my blood boil. Never responds to emails, changed how we submitted tests for every test so it was confusing. Paranoid about cheating to a high extent.

Lecture was great, everything made sense and she walked through problems with students. Content that came up in class also came up in homework and in tests/exams. One possible issue is her grading attendance, but otherwise she made Calculus I easy to adjust to. Feedback was helpful too and she provides extra credit for pointing out her mistakes.

Shes a nice person but her exams are just extremely difficult. I find that the study guides look nothing like to what she would put on the exams and they are just insanely difficult. Shes a good teacher but when it comes to exams it gets frustrating because shes an insanely tough grader. Literally more than 80% of the students fail the exams

Take her Calculus 1 class in person. She will mark you off if you are 10 minutes late. Lots of homework online. She graded things very harshly and be ready for a test every week. Tests are 35% of the total grade while the final is 25%. It is literally impossible to get a 4.0 in this class.

Easily the most difficult class I've taken at Highline. Textbook was a horrible resource, and not a lot of materials to help you prepare for tests. Not many things explained in layman's terms. Concepts barely covered until you go onto the next. Hard exams. Not very forgiving. Lots of homework. Would not recommend if not comfortable with math.

Razmehr is truly a wonderful teacher. Make sure to do all the optional homework and learn the unit circle quickly. If you turn in homework 24 hours before it's due you get 5% extra credit on each question and if you correct her during class you get extra credit so stay alert during class. Stay up to date and you'll be fine.

I would never recommend to anyone, she seems like a nice person but as a professor, you will be teaching yourself. It all consists on critical thinking, we never really got taught anything. We had around 15 minutes for lecture, while the rest of class time is working with groups on problems with no guidance but a yes or no if you're correct.

she was fine you just had to rely on group work too much to understand the content, she didn't reply to emails if you had questions for homework and even if she did, she replied too late. shes willing to review stuff if the class didn't know and encouraged to ask questions, gave extra credit for correcting her mistakes too

Average teacher. She teaches the class with a workalong packet for every unit and reads and solve problems from the packet for most of the class. Her tests are not impossible if you study and really grasp the concepts in class. However, the final was quite difficult. I learned a lot but definitely had to put in a lot of time outside of class

The professor is sweet and welcoming. But I can't say the same about the class. The homework's are a lot but it wont bring your grade up. The exams are horrible. We only took 2 exams and the final, together 60% of your grade. Calculators are only allowed on couple of questions. It's impossible to get a grade above 70% even if you try your hardest.

Would not recommend to anyone. Expect to be teaching yourself all quarter. Felt when I asked questions she would answer as if I should have known the answer. Even went to a tutoring workshop and they were confused with the way she was teaching us. I honestly took her winter 2024 and still can't get how horrible this class was.

Razmehr's class isn't an easy A but it is fair. If you can adjust to the way her class works and spend a decent amount of time outside of class studying you'll pass. It isn't super hard but it isn't easy either. it requires a fair amount of effort which is doable as long as you have the urge to.

organized around three types of ungraded handouts: topic lectures, group work, and individual practice with a graded WebAssign component. We had tests every week on the same day, but there was class time to complete all work. Extra credit for early submission of WebAssign assignments and for pointing out mistakes in her work.Hard to reach on email

The way that each type of assignment is weighted is fair, and attendance and homework combined are almost half your grade. She's really approachable and will clarify anything if asked. Exams are very similar to work given out in class, so if you do the workalong and study it the material on the exam shouldn't be a surprise. Gives extra credit too.
