Well structured class, very willing to help. Medium hard, but fair testing and work required. She's a good person.
If all teachers were like Dr. Seyedin, I'd probably never leave school... She is an incredible teacher who loves teaching and cares about her students
This class is well structured. The teacher is very helpful.
Professor is extremely helpful, resourceful, and clear in her directions.

She gives out extra credit, I took her online class and she is very helpful and give quick email reply. But the course requires student to read a lot by themselves.

She is so nice and so responsible!
One of my favorite teachers at Foothill. Very helpful, knows a lot and cares about her students.
She's helpful and easy going. She allowed me to take the class completely online even though I was enrolled in a regular lecture.
VERY well organized. Everything is clear and easy to understand. She is always there when you need her and answers questions in a timely manner. This is EXTREMELY important for an online course.
I took this online and still got really good support and flexability. Never even had to pick up the phone.
Even though i didn't ace her class,I'm still glad that i took it.She is very supportive of students and offer alot of valuable advice even off class topic like which uni to transfer too. She uses alot of real life examples in the accounting class.
A very helpful, patient, and nice teacher. Never reject your request or help.
Awsome teacher. She is very clear and easy to understand. I reccomend her to anyone who is willing to work hard and learn at the same time.
seyedin was a decent teacher, but took a disliking to me at the beginning of the course. do not get on her bad side; she will not hesitate to show her disapproval. nevertheless the class was pretty easy and I still managed an A in it.
One of the best business teachers at foothill, she is not sarcastic like Nava and just BETTER than Davidson. Shes excellent
Very nice teacher who is very helpful and understanding. Respects her students opinions and is very fair. Knows her stuff well and explains it thoroughly.
She's so nice and helpful.
Nothing but cool! There are several extra credit tasks which can boost our grades and they worth 30 points. Recommend for all students!
She really makes it possible to learn online. She is clear in her direction and always available. She is an awsome teacher and I would recommend this class to anyone.
Her class is great and you will learn a lot from her course. If you work hard, you will get a good grade with no doubt. She provides mid-term review and the real test is very very similar to the review. I highly recommend her course to all of you.
She is the best teacher I've ever had. She makes learning process really exciting.
I took the online course. Seyedin goes above and beyond to provide everything possible to allow her students to absorb the information. The sample tests were extremely helpful. Two thumbs up.
Not easy, but a great teacher!
Very good. Very helpful. Very knowledgeable. You will learn a lot. Warm recommendations to Dr. Seyedin’s class.
She is not hard if you do the extra credit and practice problems.
Dr. Seyedin teaches an excellent introductory Business course. Her style is straight forward and energetic. She is very helpful and if you put in the work you will get a fair grade!
She doesn't teach u anything. Book is you only teacher. Unfair and did not let me make up an exam even though I informed her before the exam(contradicts syllabus). This brought my grade down and she showed no sympathy. Just don't take this class online.

Dr. Seyedin is one of the best teachers I have every had. She is always available to help with questions and responds to emails quicker that any other online professor. She is one class act. Anyone who wants to learn accounting should take her class!
Seyedin responds quickly to e-mails, gives good intructions for test prep,& provides much extra credit opportunity. One big complaint I have is grades, answers, etc. are not posted on time, which is very frustrating!!!!
She is one of the best teachers I had. She was my first teacher in U.S.A. She was so encouraging & helpful to me. I am very lucky to have her as my teacher.
I took the online class. Very easy. Tests are open book and as long as you have the book and read the chapters you can do very well on the midterms and final. The essays are the only part that take a decent amount of effort, but aren't a big deal.
Great class! I learnded a lot and I felt encouraged.
Very clear syllabus. Very good reveiw materials prior to exams. Several opportunities to earn extra credit. Very supportive. A very organized professor!
SHE IS GREAT! She goes at the perfect tempo which is not too fast/slow, and always answer your questions completely. She'll really keep you awake and you will learn so much just by listening to her! Don't pass up her class!
I took Dr. Seyedin's Online Financial Accounting class and found her to be very inflexible, unsympathetic, and pompous. She likes things her way, or it's the highway. She may be better as an in-class instructor, but don't take her online class!
good class and lots of extra credit opportunities, just keep doing the homework and set up spreadsheets from these to help with exams
Professor Seyedin was very clear in her directions and requirements for the course. If you follow her syllabus and keep up with the homework and reading, there is no reason for you not to receive an A in this course.
Online: be prepared to learn it all urself, has powerpt present but only semi helpful. easy to do as long as you read and do the hwk you should be fine. slightly anal about following the syllabus and office hrs, but still helpful - just takes a few days
you have to learn it by urself. But the class is very easy if you do you your homework and extra credit. And Dr. Seyedin is very helpful.
Sayadine sucks!
Dr. Seyedin is the greatest professor ever. She is very helpful and truly caters to her students. It is the laziest, and most unmotivated students who have a problem with her. She goes out of her way to make sure we understand everything.
The online course is tough because it is on-line! Dr. Seyedin cares for her students, is very positive and provides a supportive on-line environment. She's GREAT! Clear! Most importantly, I learned a lot about Financial Accounting!
Dr. Seyedin is very organized and sets out exactly what she expects. She clearly knows the subject matter inside and out and imparts that knowledge to her students. It was not an easy class, there is alot to learn. Dr. Seyedin really clarified difficult issues.
While the class was difficult it was relevant and very informative.
I would disagree with anyone who said Dr. Seyedin isn't fair. She's extremely fair. She goes out of her way to make sure you understand the material. She is the ideal professor-she hopes for the success of each student. Thank you Dr. Seyedin for such great classes.
Excellent educator who provides pleasant learning experience. Material highly organized. Very clear lecture. Encouraging classroom participation. Interesting group exercise. Friendly and non-authoritarian. Prepare to work hard and having fun learning from her class.
Like any online class, there is a lot of self-learning involved but Seyedin makes it easier because of her clear directions and fair grading policy. I would recommend her to anyone.
The syllabus made Dr. Seyedin's expectations very clear and she offered many extra credit opportunities which made it easy to get a good grade for anyone willing to put a bit of effort in the class. That it was online presented an extra challenge, but she is mindful of the challenge and very fair.
Prof. S, is nice lady and friendly too. U will learn best technic from her and willing to help u in many problems also very patient. Studying hard is the best way to pass her class not easy to get an A. TAKE HER CLASS U WILL LEARN MORE THAN ANY PROFESSOR BESIDE DR. DAVIDSON. BOTH ARE THE BEST!!
I took Dr. Seyedin's class to polish my business skills and to increase my understanding of marketing. I have been in the work force for five years. The teaching was excellent and I learned much more than I expected. It has definitely helped me on my job and prepared me for more senior roles.
Really easy course, everything is all laid out for what you do in the class. No regular homework assignments. Some extra credit. 1 research project. Tests are open book, and aren't that hard.
I think she is pretty cool. Loads and loads of extra credits and not to mention the easy load she gave us. She is very friendly and I would definitely recommend anyone to take her class.
SHE IS THE BEST ACCOUNTING INSTRUCTOR IN FOOTHILL.SHE KNOWS A LOT,TEACHING STYLE SUPER CLEAR AND LOTS OF EXTRA CREDITS IN THE CLASS.IF U DON'T LIKE ACTG JUST TAKE HER CLASS AND YOU WOULD BEGIN TO "LOVE"IT.
She is just great. Take her class... He is helpful and available too...
Excellent teacher. She gives out a total of about 8-10% extra credit, so put full effort into the class and you are guarenteed atleast B. The Hw, Quiz's and exams are very straight forward. The class becomes harder as it progresses so watch out.
She is a very organized teacher. I have taken ACTG1A n I am taking 1C with her. And truely speaking I am missing her in my ACTG 1B class.She is a great teacher,knows a lot and her tests are pretty straight forward.I will recommend her.
I took the class on-line and only an orgainzed instructor should be allowed to teach online classes. Fortunalely Dr. Seyedin is. She was more than fair. If you do the homework, read the book and all extrat credit assignments you should get an A. I just wish I could have taken the class on campus.
Very sweet lady. Always willing to help and takes her job seriously. Also she grades her exams very fast within 24 hours. Really Amazing.
Plenty of extra credit. Tests were pretty stressful though.
Great Teacher, very helpful and always willing to help you succeed. Lots of reading-took this class in the summer ONLINE. But in the end was worth it! Received an A, keep up with the reading, test were pretty easy if you read the book. Over all good class and great teacher.
She is very very very nice and is an excellent teacher. I highly recommend her. If you even put alittle effort you will get an A. TONS OF EXTRA CREDIT. Great Class
Very helpful and know what she is teaching.
She is the nicest teacher at foothill and has a GREAT sense of humor. Her tests are challenging but if you go to class and take notes, you will do fine.
Online class - very organized, a lot of extra credit. If you put effort in, you wil get an A out. She posts the scores often, so you always know how you are doing. I recommend her at least for her online portion.
Great teacher. Has a lot of extra credit. Just finish all hw and requirements, study a little bit and you will get an A. Highly recommend you to take her. But, she does not allow talking in class.
I took her 1A online. I normally dont have difficulty learning via online courses but this class is hard to take via internet. She does offer lots of extra credit and all online tests are open book. It can be an an easy A if you put the work into it. There is one big project due, but all the answers can be found on the internet.
She's awesome. Don't miss her class....... You'll love her.
Offers 10pt extra credit before each midterm (3). Hard class to understand online w/o background. Fiasco quarter--couldn't access midterm 3 and final exam so there's no learning from mistakes. I wouldn't recommend her until she learns how to use Etudes NG.
Took an online class. Information in her notes and syllabus are very organized and clear. Response time to questions are prompt and helpful. She is sincerely interested in keeping students motivated.
.you had better know how to do computations with EXCEL because half the homework is in EXCEL. And you exams are submitted in EXCEL. I have not had EXCEL and do not use it in my work so I dropped the class which I am frustrated about because I think she's a good teacher but I am going to either take EXCEL first.
Probably the hardest class I've taken so far. I'm honestly retaining/learning practically nothing because the material and the book is so confusing.
I would not recommend people to take her especially if you are an accounting major student, she does not know how to teach, and i do not need to spend my money on learning how to use excel and etudes ng. The class is basically hybrid; however, it is even worse than an online class. I suggest that you better think twice before taking this class.
I enrolled in her online class. The syllabus was very detailed and clear. I found some of the test questions to be slightly off what the text covered, but was overall reasonable. You DO need to stay on top of the work and readings to do well in the class. Extra credit is abundantly available, which allows for a fairly easy A in the class.
Highly recommended for student who want to prepare for 4-year University, and the highly competitive business world. A lot of homework in this class, but then it's the best way to learn Accounting. Practice. So I would say skip if you are just looking to get over the GE requirement, but take her if you want to be in better shape before transfer.
Out of all the classes I've taken, Dr. Seyedin's had the most clear and organized syllabus. This made the class-work very easy to plan and do. She also provides an abundance of extra credit, but also a lot of homework,which is necessary for learning and is not that hard if you take the time to figure it out on your own. Lectures need improvement.
this is the hardest class i ever took, i am accounting major and i learned nothing from this class. i passed this class because of my own effort. so student who is average should not take her class. her quiz n finals r from CPA book. so think how hard it is.
This class is meant for those students that care about their learning experience. Dr. Seyedin is extremely helpful, and will go the extra mile to help her students succeed. The class does demand a lots of time because of the amount of homework but it is the only way to learn accounting. As far as excel there are only three excel assignments.
Dr.Seyedin is very friendly and she makes class interesting. Along with a great teacher, she is very affectionate as well. She is always available and even responds back to emails on her days off and late at night. I would love to take another class with her if given an opportunity.
Dr. Seyedin is very friendly teacher. She gave lots of extra credit work in class. But her tests are too hard. Final killed almost everyone in my class. The review she gives isn't similar to tests. but inclass work makes a huge difference towards your grades. always participate in class.
Dr. Seyedin is one of the most passionate, kind, & committed teachers I've ever met in my life. Her lectures are incredibly energetic (although she often gets sidetracked, so speak up if she digresses). Her tests can be challenging but she has lots of EC which will help raise your grade. Very accessible & ALWAYS willing to help. Highly recommended!
A very passionate , caring and and open minded teacher. Always hear the thoughts of the students inside the class. 30 extra credits out of 420 total credits. Homework based on cengage. She teaches really well and always ask us a question to make sure that we are understand. She always try the best to help us.highly recommended!
She is extremely confusing. Cares a lot.. But I think she is better off left for online student who prefer to teach themselves anyway. I'm not being negative, she is a very nice person. Although, I did feel I was not alone in my frustrations every class. She takes more time explaining how to use certain computer software, such as: cengage and etudes. To the point where everybody is asleep and just wants to hear about accounting. Its a nice gesture, but I became very frustrated.
Excellent Teacher. Gives lots of opportunities to improve the learning process. Very kind and eager to help, even after the class has ended. Although I was not sure about accounting a major, she has almost converted me into an accountant, 'almost'. Do your work on time and you will definitely get an A. Very highly recommended.
I enjoyed this wonderful professor's 1A class so much, I stuck with her through 1B & 1C. She has to be the most organized professor I have ever met. Lectures are ALWAYS relevant, provides reviews with practically the same questions as exams, with different numbers, excellent preparation, as test Q's are actual CPA Exam questions. The EC is amazing!

I took her 1C class & wish I had taken her 1A & 1B too. She explains everything clearly & I understand the textbook much better after her explanation. She is successful at teaching students of vastly differing abilities & I appreciated that. She gave me gd advice when I had problems with my courses. She could not been more caring or generous.
Dr. Seyedin is one of the best professors I've had at Foothill. She follows the text but uses her own simple examples to illustrate the acct principles. A real plus for me is that she uses her own lectures - doesnt simply rely on slides from the publisher. I found her very available and helpful. Definitely a great start for my accounting career.
Tests are straight forward, but around 10% of the questions are tricky. Don't be thrown into a panic of the tricky questions, she offers more than 30 points extra credit out of 440. Not only do you have to know the double entries, but you also have to know the fundamental knowledge. Let say, what is the order in preparing the financial statements.
Super nice, always encouraging participation and questions, which makes the class better since you she makes you feel comfortable. Tests are hard, but there is a lottt of extra credit. Very enthusiastic about accounting and explains very well.
Do NOT take this class online! Although there is extra credit available, the tests are hard and the assignments are graded very strictly! I got docked off points for the most stupid things. If you take this class, you HAVE TO STUDY and spend at least 4~5 hours a week studying the material. Recommended to take this class on-campus only!
It's a pleasure of having Dr. Seyedin as an instructor!
I took this class online and barely scraped by with an A and I also did almost all the extra credit available (didn't do the tutoring extra credit). This class requires a lot of time (about 4 hours+ a week; she actually expects you to study at least 2 hours a day for this class)). Don't slack off!!!!!!
I took the online class with Dr. Seyedin. To get an A, you need to invest 3 hrs a day between studying the textbook, doing homework, participating in class discussions on Etudes, and doing practice tests on My Accounting Lab. Take advantage of the extra credit! I had a great experience being in Dr. Seyedin's online class.
Read the syllabus and chapters. Do the work. The class tutor available for chat was a great resource. Teacher is very approachable and accommodating. Really enjoyed the class.
Do the work, read the chapters. Dr Seyedin provides a lot of opportunity for extra credit which really helps. The exams are difficult if you do not do the work. Read the directions for the assignments and follw them exactly. There is always an aid to help out, difficult class but if you put in the work you can pass
I had the pleasure of having dr seyedin for all 3 classes. She is incredible and very understanding. A lot of extra credit opportunities to boost your grade up. The midterms and finals are not the easiest but all come from the textbook. Study hard and make the effort to get an A, and you definitely will! She is brilliant, take her if you can!
I like Dr. S and she's very excited about ACTG, but a few things rubbed me wrong. She stresses fair opportunities to all, but I think a few were getting sweetheart deals with regards to attendance and projects for her in-person class. Study-time was exaggerated and she gives more than enough extra credit to get an A, but the final was hard!
She is a bad professor because she does not go through all the material that she uses for her test!!! on the final, be prepared to be chocked by a lot of material you havent seen before!! she gives a lot of credit beacuse but does not teach proper actg! barely goes through the chapters!!!
I took Accounting 1A and 1B with Dr. Seyedin. Her classes are very interesting and she provides a lots of opportunities for extra credit. She is a really great professor, gives a lot of information at class, but you also have to read chapters, do homework.
She is the best actg professor ever! very clear, and she care for her students. She wants everyone to succeed, and she do her best to make it happen. Highly recommended if you want to learn accounting.
She is THE BEST! she care for students and want them to succeed. She explain the materials clearly and she is really helpful. Highly recommended!
If you want to find the way to start you career from finance or business related field. You have to plan earlier because her class are always full. She is super nice Prof. :) I will give her 5+ for sure :0
Dr. Seyedin is a wonderful teacher. She is one of the best teacher I ever had in Foothill. She gives 100% of her time to all of her students. She have tutors that are available for her students for free and her positive attitude enthusiast her student to come to her class. I strongly recommend her for accounting class!
Dr. Seyedin is an amazing teacher! I love her class and she gives her best effort to help her student! Although her test is difficult, she is willing to help each student to succeed. Strongly recommend her as your accounting teacher!
If you need to take 1A-C, I recommend Dr. S. Even if you are new to the subject, there's plenty of ramp-up time to get used to the pace and her expectations. Take advantage of all the EC opportunities and you won't have to stress so much about tests - yes they can be tough! You have really great teacher who wants to help you succeed; funny too!
Dr. Seyedin was very helpful with the online class. Take her! She was always involved in discussion posts and replied email in a timely manner. I got an A. All tests online are open book. Definitely worth taking her!
Dr. Seyedin is really nice and helpful. She will explain the concepts needed for the tests. She is willing to offer many extra credit opportunities to students to get an A. I am taking her ACTG 1A and I will continue my accounting courses down the road with Dr. Seyedin. She's your ultimate choice if you are looking for a good accounting professor.
Dr Seyedin is awesome. Accounting is naturally boring but she invites for a lot of discussion and is funny. Can't text in class or you'll owe her $1. You WILL have to pay her... All in all a great prof. Will have her for 1B for sure.
She's the one who helping me to pursue my career as an accountant. I began to love Accounting so much because of her lecture class. I'd strongly recommend students who want to be accountants in the future taking her class. I haven't taken her on-class class yet, but for her lecture class, 100% thumb-up!
I only took accounting to understand my own mess of finances. Dr Seyedin's online class was so user friendly and educational I ended up continuing to a BS, studying for CPA. She's organized, responsive, dedicated, accessible, incredible. Degree in finance has fused with prior training to double my pay grade! Lovely role model, great teacher.
Take her class! She was more of a friend to me than a professor and is the sweetest person ever. Definitely the best teacher to take accounting with. If you need help, she is more than willing to explain concepts to you. You need to do your work to do well in the class. She'll give you a second chance. Seriously don't take anyone else tho!!!
Dr. Seyedin is a really professional and enthusiastic accounting professor. She teaches wholeheartedly. If you have any esquires and send her an email, she can reply you promptly and solve your problem. I learned a lot from her and she impressed me to become a CPA in the future. I feel really interested in accounting coz accounting is full of fun!!
She is amazing. Everything is straight-forward. I took her online and was afraid to take accounting online, but she is great. So, I am super stoked. I had taken the risk. Also, she puts a lot of links that make you interested in accounting.
Dr. Seyedin is really a good accounting professor! You can learn a lot from her. She helped me to build a good foundation in accounting and I am going to pursue my CPA license after I graduate! No worries! Take her class and get an A from her!!
I took online 1B with Mrs. Seyedin. EASY A but you will still learn a lot. There is a LOT of extra credit available and the midterm/final are very fair and not too hard. If you understand the online HW you will do fine on the tests. Overall, I definitely recommend Mrs. Seyedin.
Dr. Seyedin is a great professor. Her online accounting class is not that difficult, and she provides a lot of extra credit to raise your grade. Midterms are pretty easy as well.
Okay, so this class I passed with a 94% because I took all the extra credit assignments. There are a lot of extra credit assignments, just by completing the homework but the tests were challenging. You definitely need to love being in front of a computer because that's how I passed, a lot of practice. I'm taking this class in person next time.
I regret not completing the extra credit soooo much.... I had an 88% SO CLOSE. The tests are tricky but just study. Somehow I did 100x better on the final than the 2 midterms (I got an A) AND DO THE EXTRA CREDIT. That's my biggest regret right now :(
Class was very straightforward. HW is the bulk of extra credit w a few other extra credits, and she gives ALOT of extra credit, almost enough to raise your grade by an entire letter. Midterms and Final is pretty tough so if you understand the hw and readings, you should do okay. DO THE HW. Lots and lots of extra credit to be given.
A lot extra credit! Easy get a A.
Extremely easy A. I do not understand why her easiness rating is below a 4.0 Take her, do all the hw, and if you still can't get an A, you have issues.
Dr. Seyedin is perfect! She has both Intelligence and a Heart. I really admire her. Also, she is perfectly elegant Inside and Outside. Especially for accounting majors, she helps them a lot. Always open to sincere conversation. She cannot be more professional. Perfect Acc professor! -Also an easy A! You learn a lot at the same time!
She needs to work on her lectures, they're slow, tedious, and unnecessary if you read the book. Take her online course, it's easy (open book exams) and no lectures.
Take Dr. Seyedin! I will admit, I was a little intimidated by the massive syllabus at first (8 pages?!), but once you get into the swing of how things work it's a breeze. I wish she offered Acct1B online next quarter, I would totally take her again!!!
This was a required class for me but I really came to enjoy accounting thanks to Dr. Seyedin. I took the online version of this class and MLM makes it very clear what you need to do next. Please be aware that the final is a group project. Keep up on the reading and don't skip the extra credit!
I'm so relieved that I finished accounting, extra credit helps so much in seyedins class. Group presentations was a huge was of time imo, would've rather spent that time reviewing final. Concepts hard to learn near end of quarter
She is perfect! She is admirable, intelligent, knowledgeable and elegant. She is the best accounting professor! As a human, she is respectful. She respects students and she helps students out of her way. Also, she is very beautiful. I hope she can teach more advanced courses.
I took an online course and it was well organized, straightforward and very manageable. It was pretty easy for me, but I had alot of accounting experience already so the materials mostly wasn't new to me. She answered emails quickly and was accommodating about taking tests at a different time (earlier) when I needed to so that.
Dr. Seyeden is a very caring instructor but I'm going to be honest she does not make a very good teacher. She wastes a lot of class time, she's unorganized, and she's very confusing. This class is very easy although the final and take home test were preatty tough(watch out for them in the end ). MT's werent too bad but not exactly easy. Lots of EC.
Teaches the subject very well and is a pretty lenient grader. Go to class because she does take attendance but if you pay attention to the lectures, you won't even have to touch your textbook. Do all optional and required homework and you will get an easy A or B no problem! Super chill teachers, one of my favorites at foothill so far.
Whether one is pursuing an AA in accounting or the CPA prep-certification, one can benefit tremendously from taking the financial accounting series with Professor Seyedin. She is extraordinarily dedicated to her students and has tremendously helpful industry contacts. Be sure to engage her as she is most receptive to her students- don't be shy!
One word: Perfect. I took all ACCT classes w/ Dr. Seyedin & worked as her TA. I gained massive knowledge & built strong foundation in Accounting. Shes knowledgeable, enthusiastic, caring & inspiring. Lots of extra credit. Do the HW & practices. Exams aren't hard if you study well. Take her classes! Youll learn a lot & get good grades you deserve.
Dr. Seyedin is extremely gracious and helpful. She truly wants her students to learn and absorb the material, despite the lenient grading. While she believes in deadlines, I believe if you reach out to her, she may be understanding to your circumstances. I wish I took all her accounting classes at Foothill if I was a transfer. She is SO nice.
Dr. Seyedin is truly awesome! She's very well respected at the college and it shows. Her lectures are very encouraging and straight-forward, you could take the online class but having her teach makes everything clearer and faster. Terrific teacher!
I had Dr. Sara Seyedin for both ACTG 1A & 1B and she's truly awesome! She's a very well respected instructor at FC and she truly does want her class to succeed, so she's there to listen and encourage, because both classes are not easy especially 1B, but if you show up, pay attention, and do the HW, it'll come together well. She gets an A+ easy!
I did not like this class so much bc she does not know much of acc but teach from the textbook very boring lectures. you must be in class if you don't she does not like... and does not give you many points if you don't come i got a but did not learn much acc i like acc but she does not teach and talkes about other things i do not know computer
This class had a clear and easy structure. Even if you struggle with accounting you can get a good grade by doing extra credit. There is one group project that isn't too hard. She gives plenty of instructions and opportunities to learn the material.
Took online, very clear instructions and very well organized
If you take Dr. Seyedin's class, make sure you need a third eye to keep your scores on all your assignments. She could forget to record your scores if she wants to. She would lower a letter grade for the whole class because of her miscalculation of the scores. Be prepared to get extra anxiety if you take her. Do not recommend her.
I do not know why Foothill College let Dr. Seyedin hold such an important position. As the chair of the Accounting Department, her class is disorganized as best. She mis-calculate students' grades all the time. The students in her class got handed the wrong mid-term. She does not seem to care and that much into teaching Accounting. Don't recommend!
I took Dr. Seyedins Actg. 1B last quarter. She takes a difficult topic and explain it clearly. Once I listened to her lecture, I was able to go through the chapter quickly. She is highly organized and structured. I have no idea why the two reviews below states otherwise. Take her class, focus, do all the extra credit work and you will learn a lot.
I took Ms. Seyedin for all of my accounting courses at Foothill college. If you read the book regularly and study the material, you will do well in the class! Ms. Seyedin gives a bunch of extra credit and points as well that really help boost your grade! I highly recommend taking her class.
Lots of extra credit avaialble, which is necessary because I found the tests rather hard, or at least tricky. Like any math related course, completing the homework is essential for me to understand the material, and all homework counts as extra credit in this class which is clutch and can bump up a C tester up to an A grade. Do the homework!!
Dr. Seyedin is very organized. Everything you need about this class is accessible on Canvas. Her class syllabus is well structured there will be enough time to do the homework. Sometimes she will go over hard questions to make sure you understand the material. If you follow her guidance and do your work properly you will get an A. BEST PROF. EVER!
Professor Seyedin is a character. She has a lot of expertise in the field, but she gets confused sometimes. Seems lost in the explanations and relies a lot on her messy notes. But she is super kind and wants her students to learn about accounting. She is always willing to help, sometimes too much.
Doctor Seyedin is one of the best professors I've had at Foothill. She is clear in her assignments and is always ready to help. I took the class online, but she is always ready to help with whatever questions we have. I work full time and tests times conflicted with work, so she opened them up a day earlier. She is one of the best! Thank you!
She is a great prof. She will reply to your email within two days. She will try her best to help you, so you will do well if you work hard. She is an easy a prof. Def would take her class again.
This was my second class with Professor Seyedin. She is an amazing teacher and human being. She is very caring for her students and she is super willing to help us, all the time, anytime. I highly recommend her!
Great Professor! The assignments are mostly extra credit, so homework is completely up to you. As long as you do the projects and class participation this is a breeze. She's very easily accessible, and when I noticed that the system was grading my excel projects incorrectly I emailed and she responded back immediately and fixed it! Would take again
She's a nice and caring professor. A lot of extra credit work, and all multiple choice questions on exams. I always wanna take her class again. Unfortunately, she never teaches the class I wanna take after 1A. When I was ready to take 1B, she taught 1A and 1C. When I'm gonna take 1C, she only teaches 1A.
I love professor Seyendin. I wish she taught ACCT1B online as well because she is amazing and communicates very well. All homework is extra credit, and only midterms, discussions and projects are mandatory. Hard not to pass to be honest, and if the system every glitches, email her and she will look into it and fix it right away!
Dr. Sara Seyedin was my favorite professors at Foothill College. She taught me invaluable skills in accounting 1A, 1B and 1C. My strong accounting background had gotten me a risk management Internship in a venture capital firm last summer. Her group presentation project was really fun. I would strongly recommend her to every student!
Nice prof and accessible outside class. Easy A.
Took her online class and instructions were pretty clear. All homework is optional and gives you extra credit if you do it, can gain up to 8%, a whole letter grade! Met with her in person and she is so nice. She also hires teaching assistants so if you want to work and get paid have a close relationship with her and take her on-campus classes.
Took her in person for 1B and online for 1C because of covid. I really missed her in-person lectures, but her online class was really good. You have to do the work to learn the material, but she gives lots of extra credit opportunities and it's not hard to get an A. There is 1 group project, but it was actually pretty fun and she is very helpful.
I really enjoyed this teacher! She really tried to help her students understand the material. I feel like I learned a lot from her class.
She may be a good in person teacher, but she offers zero online help. I have taught myself everything in this class, including learning by losing points on assignments due to contradictions in her assignments and the textbook. She doesn't check her email. Basically, if you want to teach yourself accounting, this is the perfect class for you. SMH
She's alright but doesn't write any modules so if you want the material you have to rely on the textbook. However there's a lot of opportunity for extra credit, you can get up to 8% just extra credit (most homework is extra credit). Her tests aren't proctored and they are open note open book (online asynchronous).
She sends out a detailed syllabus of the structure and work of the class. A very easy class if you do all the work and make sure to do the assignments on time. If you actually want to learn accounting She probably isn't the teacher for you since its all asynch.
Prof Seyedin is the absolute sweetest. Her expectations from the beginning are clear--because it is an asynchronous class, there is a lot of work to be done individually. There are two midterm exams and a cumulative final, but she provides practice problems and other study strategies. I definitely recommend her!
Great teacher for 1A! Her materials are so thorough and helpful that you can breeze through the quarter without a problem (Granted that you must put in the work for your HW. You definitely cannot pass Accounting courses without putting in the work). Offers lots of EC and always available through email and Zoom! Definitely take her!!!
Dr. Seyedin is a great professor and a caring person. She puts a lot of information in the syllabus; read it carefully! There is plenty of opportunity for extra credit. Sign up for a group as soon as class starts and start working on the group assignment early. She is available through email and Zoom if you have questions. I recommend her!
She's a sweet person but I am not sure if this class will prepare you for Acct 1B. She does not lecture so it's a lot of self studying. The exams were easy but if you don't do the homework and if you don't study on your own or have a tutor, it can be difficult. There is homework every week but it's extra credit. U might not learn a lot
Provided a wonderful learning experience! The online system we used was very intuitive and the homework and tests we all great learning opportunities. With Prof. Seyedin, you will learn accounting and not stress about your grades if you are doing the assigned reading and homework.
I really liked how organized the professor and the material was - no searching all over to get the info I needed and the syllabus/assignments/calendar were all accurate. She is very responsive to questions, and has office hours that I could actually attend as needed. Online format was excellent. One group project, but it was pretty easy.
Dr. Seyedin is communicative and offers a lot of extra credit, all the homework is extra credit. There are 3 excel assignments and a group project that isn't that hard. If you are ever unsure or want her to check your answers she'll help you figure it out. There are 2 midterms and 1 final but it's multiple choice. Pearson also helps with concepts.
Professor WebAssign gives no warnings and does not like to teach herself. Just textbook problems and busy-work major assignments.
Tests are over 75% of the grade. Her tests are multiple-choice and not that hard though. Took her for Accounting 1 and 2, she's the easiest accounting teacher at foothill. You have to learn it yourself but the concepts aren't too hard. 90% is an A and she offers 8% of extra credit. Not hard to get an A.
Professor Seyedin was great. I took her for both Accounting 1A and 1B. Her class is fully online with no live zooms. Her assignments are fairly easy and everything is made clear in the syllabus. She is a sweet teacher who wants her students to do well. Just do the few assignments she has and you should do just fine, plus there's EC.
This was my 2nd class with Dr. Seyedin. There's another annual report, 3 exams, 3/4 excel assignments, & hw is extra credit. It's not hard to get an A especially because the multiple choice exams are open book. The exams are only open for 4 hours on Saturday. You need to self-study, there are no lectures from her you just use the book materials.
Fair grading, clear expectations, use of Canvas is well organized, multiple opportunities for Zoom office hours.
Well organized materials and number opportunities for office hours.
Dr. Seyedin's class is great! This is an online class. Her Zoom office hours were always welcome and she was very supportive, providing clear and concise explanations. The class materials are well-organized. Everything was laid out in a clear and easy-to-follow manner .She offers a lot of extra credit assignments to boost students' final scores.
Out of all my time in University, I have never found a Professor cares this much about student success. She is willing to go above and beyond to make sure you are understanding material, and being taken care of. I had endless issues with another professor and as the Accounting Dept. Chair, she handled everything, 10/10 person and 10/10 professor.
At my time at Foothill College Dr Seyedin has been one of the best instructors I've had. She is truly passionate about seeing her students excel. Just follow the syllabus and you will be fine. I also recommend doing all the extra credit, that will help propping up your grade. She is probably one of the best instructors at Foothill College.
Great teacher! She grades super fairly and is nice and understanding when you message her.
As a teacher myself, (career change),I find professor Sara Seyedin to be a rare gym. She goes above & beyond to make sure that her students learn. She considers all types of learners & this is why she is very resourceful- video lectures. MS word, PowerPoint, lots of extra credit. She is very prompt with email responses. She is a fair grader.
She was very understanding of extraneous situations and had an engaging teaching style. She genuinely cares about her student's success, which isn't easy to find in college professors.
Dr. Seyedin is super sweet. She really cares about her students, and the class is pretty fun and reasonable. She offers lots of extra credit (including doing the homework), there are two open-note midterms and a final, and a relatively simple group project. Not a class I was stressing a lot about. Highly recommend her for accounting!
Geat course to take with this professor. Guidlines are pretty much clear and she's very responsive if you have any questions through canvas.
Dr Seyedin had to be one of the most tentative Professors that I've had in Community College, very straightforward class which your grade was largely based on exams (Midterms/Finals) with options for other credit which added points. She was understanding, quick to respond as well as gives you multiple attempts on the homework. Must take!
Fee for pearson to access the course. HW is optional but you get lots of extra credit (up to 35) & practice. One writing assignment by yourself for 1a and with a group for 1b, attend office hours for help! 3 excel assignments but she gives you the solution so just format on excel. Follow all of her instructions! Some class work, 2 midterms, 1 final
Professor Seyedin is an understanding instructor who makes her class straightforward. Exams are the main grading factor, but she offers extra credit opportunities. With the help of resources like Unstuck AI, I found her course manageable and would recommend it.
Dr. Seyedin is extremely supportive of all her students and is super accessible outside of class. Her classes are structured so that you're able to get the help you need. She's also invested in her students, past and present. Dr. Seyedin was kind enough to write a recommendation letter for me for graduate school 4 years after I'd taken her class!
