I really did not find that this instructor was helpful. She did not go over homework, instead we had a quiz at the beginning of every class. Having a quiz every class prior to going over the homework was not beneficial to me. To me it seem pointless. All in all I was not impressed and felt it this class was a waste of my time and money.

She might know the subject, but she does not teach well. Especially when she uses homework questions to explain concepts. Because everyone in the class HAS DIFFERENT numbers and questions.

This is a professor who talks so fast that instead of allowing you time to think, she interrupts your thoughts. She will will ask you what is 10 divided by 2 and wont move on in the lecture until you tell her 5. If you need to be spoon-fed to the extreme then take this class.

TAKE HER CLASS! The BEST math professor at Oakton. Took her for MAT 149 and MAT 250, both online. She has 2 exams (midterm and final), 3-4 quizzes, lowest gets dropped and assignments due about every other day. She knows her stuff and is more than happy to help you. She wants you to succeed in her class. Responds quickly to emails.

If you want the good grade at the end of the year you need to get not only the homework done but actually show up. I had a 96% in the class, barely showed up for the last two months, and it dropped me to an 89% ( I missed in class assignments and points). She's a very easy going teacher but won't repeat too much). I'd take her again though, forsure

I did really bad on my placement test coming to Oakton so I was behind the math level and had to take this class. She is a super great teacher and will help you so much. She really wants you to do your best and will always encourage you. I had her class early in the morning and I didnt mind showing up because I knew she cared about helping me! !

Took pre-calc and calc I (online) with prof Hamed. She's very helpful outside of class, but I wish I knew about the whole host of online tutors that oakton had available at the time. Can get an easy A if you use your notecard and do the pre-test hw. Just be sure to actually learn the concepts if you plan on taking calc II and beyond.

This class is difficult at first, but you're better off teaching yourself on your own. Lectures are heavy and long, but that is to be expected during the pandemic. If you study how to take the quiz and tests, you will be fine. She is also very understanding if you miss class and let her know why. She has given extensions on homework before!

You don't have to actually try to get a good grade. Make sure everything's on your formula card and you're good. Take someone else if you have to take more math, tho. I don't remember anything from her class.

I took professor Hamed for statistics and I enjoyed it! I am not good at math, and this was hard material to learn, but she has a way of explaining in a way you will understand. If you go to class, keep up with homework, and pay attention- you will do good. The tests were a bit hard at times but she does give good study guides. Great professor!

Professor Hamed was great. I took her online class. She is very nice, and very accessible outside of class. She is always there to help students when struggling. Class was overall easy, it was on MyMathLab. There is a decent amount of hw assigned, so do not wait till the last minute to complete them. Complete them early. Would recommend!

Ended w/ a 98%. I haven't taken a math class since high school so I was nervous BUT the course is easy to even get an A if you pay attention, do your homework, and actually try! Midterm and final exam were a piece of cake bc the reviews are EXACTLY the same type of questions! Prof was so nice and accommodating. 10/10 take this class and prof!

Professor Hamed is very nice and understanding and actually cares about her students; however, there might just be a faster/easier way to do a math problem, but the professor normally just takes another longer approach to get to the same answer. No partial credit on tests, as all of it is done online on MyMathLab.

Took Pre-calc over summer, so there was lots of homework, but it's very manageable. Late homework is accepted for full credit, 3-4 quizzes that you can take more than once, lowest one is dropped. A midterm and final that are very doable if you do the review. Everything from there will be on the midterms and final. Great Professor!

Wasn't afraid to ask her “stupid” questions during lectures. She's incredibly welcoming and caring about her students, and did everything she could to be as transparent about the guidelines to be successful in her course. I felt very prepared for my midterm and final exam. She drops 1 quiz which is nice. Quizzes were multiple attempts allowed.

- Cares for her students - Kinda boring class though - Teacher claims she is good at communication but doesn't answer emails very clearly or with much effort - She's kind and understanding, genuine, level-headed - Not a memorable class - Not my favorite class for sure - Some things are not made clear as much would have liked

I've had the pleasure of taking 3 classes with her Math 049 Math 250 and Math 031. Each time I was so glad I chose her as my professor. Her teaching style is clear, engaging, and effective. She breaks things down in a way that makes even the most challenging topics feel manageable. There is no word to explain how amazing she is.

The homework is very easy and there is not much of it. I would say the midterm and final where pretty tough but if you study for them its fine. I would maybe spend like an hour or two studying for this class every week, for a math class that is literally nothing.
