She speaks unclearly and very slow. She is bad at explaining stuff. I dont suggest her.
Ms. Aghakhani is one the most inspiring teachers I have ever had. I didn't use to love math but after I took Math 170 with her, she totally changed the way I see math now. I really appreciate her efforts helping students succeed in math.
What an amazing teacher! She is different with all the math teachers I had before. She is so caring, respected and I love going to her lectures because she teaches in a way that you can understand all the material. Even if you don't understand, she will explain it to you and makes sure that you learn everything before you leave the lecture.
She has been one of the best professors I have ever had. She is sophisticated and knowledgeable. If you did not understand a topic, simply ask her, she will explain it in a way that you understand fully and she makes sure that you learned it. I am grateful to have my math class with professor Aghakhani because she made me interested in math.
Professor Sima patiently explained all concepts. She worked numerous examples to ensure we understood the concepts clearly. Her level of patience and helpfulness was remarkable. Even though, the electronic tools posed some challenges for her at times, she was able to overcome those challenges and succeed in helping us, her students.
Did a great job with the online learning this year.
Professor Sima is really caring. She takes some time to help student to understand the material covered. She is friendly and that makes her a wonderful teacher. Her class is really enjoyable.
This is a great teacher.
she is the best math professor ever!!!
great professor
it was grateful to have a class with you professor, hope we can meet again later
One if the best professor i have ever met. Best teaching method. Gives feedback on each and every question we as in the live class as well as in the mails.
she give class super fast and writing is meassy very often, but she is willing to help and explain all over again, so far i am happy with her. Thank you Sima
Very well prepared professor and the important part is how she can transfer her knowledge to me!!! The world needs more of this teachers!! Thank you for teaching me how to study math.
I couldnt ask for more!! Very satisfied with materials she passed on to me!!

The instructor has a lot of patience. But the delivering APP does not have good quality.
she is amazing
GOOD PROFESSOR
BEST MATH TEACHER EVER
Very good Professor.
Overall a good professor, she just tends to move a little too quickly thorough the course material at times.
Professor Sima Aghakhani she is good in math and excellent teacher.
I really enjoyed her teaching style, and her motions to make us participate i really feel helps us learn as a unified class, not just a couple individuals. I'll be the first to admit i wasn't used to the participation pressure and i fought her a little on that, but I'm a much better student because of her.
-> I really like the way of her teaching because she explain the complicated problems in a very easy way. -> Secondly , she give brilliant methods to solve very problem , so many students do not face problems in the calculations. -> Last but not least , she is best suitable teacher for this course.
very helpful and kind hearted professor.
I enjoy her teaching style, and I'll be the 1st to admit i fought her on her pressure to participate early on in the program, only to later find out that she made me a much better student by doing so. ensuring we all were learning and not just a few individuals. She was clear and always asked if we understood. i would be happy to have her again.
All materials were provided in a clear way, all the assignments were inherent with the course. Overall the course was well structured by the professor, so I would recommend this course.
Sima is the kind of person you admire as a human being but also as a professional. She is patient, well prepared and understanding. She is always willing to explain to her students as many times as necessary in order for the student to learn.
She taught easily to understand. She gave a lot of examples. I like it.
Professor was good at explain the subject, easy going
Great professor in a subject that is not always easy such as math
Sometimes moves too fast, but if you let her know she will circle back to make sure you understand.
She always cares about students to know if they catch up or stay behind in the class. Amazing professor!

Excellent professor! She is caring for each of her students. She encourages students to ask questions during the class.
Sima is an excellent professor. She genuinely cares about every one of us and encourages us to ask her anything in class so that we don't leave with any unresolved questions.
Regarding professor Aghakhani; She is really careful about all students, She stays at the end of the classes for any questions, Finally, I suggest students to take courses with her.
Sima's commitment to students' learning is evident in her time provided at the end of classes for questions, in ensuring they understand the material, and in providing feedback as needed on quizzes and tests. Sima is an excellent professor, I highly recommend her. With Gratitude.
good at explaining concepts
Sima is a great person and a well-prepared professor. She is always willing to teach and is very patience. I really recomended.
she's accommodating, I have a headset on, and I was able to hear her swallowing when she drank, so I asked her if she could mute herself whenever she went to drank, and she was very compassionate to my needs and adjusted herself.
Sima is a really good professor. She's teaching style makes your learning easy and enjoyable.
Instructor was good, just lots of catching up for those who have been away from math for a while.
She is a very good professor with clear explanation and instruction.
She does go a little fast over the material but is still a great professor
She is really professional in teaching Math, very kind and I've enjoyed every session. The features she uses in teaching math are helpful and attractive.
I will definitely going to take her class in next sem too if there is!
Ms. Sima Aghakhani is a great professor. We only had online classes with her but I expect in-person classes to be even more enjoyable and fulfilling. Thank you!
Miss Sima Aghakhani is a very good teacher as she explains her class very methodically. She always makes sure that his students understand the topics before proceeding.
This professor explains very thoroughly. I like this thing about her. Back in India ,my teacher just say remember this formula. But this professor explains those formulas too.
Im taking Math 2 now not 1. I hope to be the same professor in math 3. she is great !
I really like the way how Miss sima Aghakhani teaches us.
Great Teacher
Gives step by step solutions for us to understand more the questions.
Excellent lectures, explains concepts very clearly.
Understanding, if you students have questions, she explained well with samples. Respected Professor. If can happen, I want her to be my professor again.
- Her class is similar to the videos created by The Organic Chemistry Tutor on Youtube but in person - you get to interact with one another and ask questions in between steps when solving - I was able to properly grasp most of the lessons that I didn't understand in highschool in her class - She creates a good math foundation for her students
The mastery is high in terms of the subject
This class is hybrid in person and online. her lecture is very clear to understand and also her feedback is always helpful. Excellent lecture
patient, understandable lectures
A very professional and respectful professor. Learned a lot of material even though the classes were partially online.
This Professor deserves a lot of praise. She is a very strong professor (I don't even know what to call the other "professors") and her teaching capability is high quality. She has the appropriate hardware and attentiveness a professor should have. She has both kindness and integrity and is very intelligent. I can't say enough good things about her
Prof. Aghakhani is an amazing instructor, one that many Centennial College professors should see as an example. She is welcoming, accommodating, knowledgeable, well-communicating, and most importantly SHE KNOWS HOW TO TEACH. BEST professor I had at Centennial College. I do not know if she will read this, but if she does; PROF. AGHAKHANI, YOU ROCK!
Sima Aghakhani is one of the best instructors i've had at Centennial, if every instructor were at her level of organization, care, quality, and knowledge things would be much much better. Being in Game Programming this should be a "Math for Game Development" little of this is useful for the stream am in.
The Professor allows for students to ask any question on whatever part of what she is teaching you dont understand. If any students doesnt understand they should ask right away and make use of this.
SHE IS A VERY GOOD PROFEESOR. HAS THE CAPABILITY OF EXPLAINING THE CORSE VERY WELL
Friendly, smooth in dealing and explanation style
One of the best profs I have had.
She has great teaching abilities, and you can tell she knows a lot. Just be prepared for fast-paced classes.
Sima Aghakhani is an exceptional instructor who is well-regarded by her students. She is known for her welcoming and accommodating nature, as well as her knowledge and effective teaching style. Students appreciate her ability to carry them along, her approach to asking and answering questions, and her responsiveness to emails and messages.
Attendance is for marks, just show up for the Zoom meetings. It is not hard as she conducts the class efficiently. She gives everyone time to ask their questions and is responsive and accommodating. She is extremely knowledgeable about this subject matter. Do the work for the course, especially on the eText and you'll fly through it.
Overall, great Professor, She always explains the concepts well. I took the course in summer and was very busy at work, If not, I would have scored an A+
Miss Sima Aghakhani is one of the most exceptional teachers at Centennial College. She consistently reminds students about quizzes and tests, responds promptly to queries even on weekends, and delivers outstanding lectures. Her extensive knowledge and teaching prowess make her an invaluable asset to the institution.
One of the best professors I've ever known, if you want to understand and get a good grade , she is the one
shea a great teacher tbh
Sima is truly an amazing prof! her knowledge on math and expertise how to deliver it to us is absolutely non comparable to any other math professor! They normally lecture and pass on but she clarifies on every reason behind concepts and that's what makes math more sense! I owe you a big thanks Sima!
Overall good experience. Gives really good examples in class which are useful for quizzes and tests. Covers 100% of the syllabus.
nice and helpful professor
She is good at making student understand.
The professor is fair in her delivery of the course. She is also very patient and politely waits to hear if anyone has questions. She goes over as many problems/questions as necessary for our understanding.
very easy to understand, goes out of her way to help if you don't understand anything. everything she teaches is on the tests. 10/10
Good Professor.
The professor is kind and explains concisely mathematical concepts.
The professor always records class's lessons so I can be easily accessible whenever.
very kind professor and very good at mathematics. She teaches it well and her lectures are very interactive considering they're online. I would definitely recommend.
Professor Aghakhani I would say is SUPER intelligent and caring prof. Honestly, this is my second time taking this course! I could not connect logic with boolean Algebra and truth tables in the previous class, but she delivered the lesson in a much more logical way which made so much sense! Anyway, take the course with her if you have 185.
This professor knows math and she knows how to teach it!
The best mathematician I have ever met! Professor Aghakhani is a genius with numbers and reasonings and great at teaching, making sure that her students are connected, and also following through lessons. Thank you professor!
Math was one of my weaker subjects but the professor was one of the best I've had. She used class time very effectively, she explained clearly, repeated anything that wasn't understood, and took short breaks to take questions. Proficient with the online visual aids. Also respectful to even interrupting ones!Overall one of the better courses I had.
Lecture is easy to follow, contents from the source material are always in assignments and tests which makes them easier
amazing professor
Professor Aghakhani' teaching is fast and clear, the material of the class is organized. It's better way to get high mark that is reviewing the knowledge and practicing questions after class.
Awesome professor!
I had the pleasure of being a student in Sima Aghakhani's math class, and I can confidently say that their teaching style made a significant impact on my understanding of the subject. They explain complex concepts in a clear and engaging manner, making even the most challenging topics easier to grasp.
I found her difficult to understand at times because of her accent which is not her fault but it makes it hard to follow along. I also felt she went way too fast with the material. I mostly relied on the textbook and youtube for help and got a good grade. But I only attended the lectures because of attendance marks.
By all means a great Professor!
Prof is really nice and teaches well. I didnt find the course too hard since I already learned most of the concepts back home in Asia. She gives great feedback after major quizzes or tests, so you know exactly how to improve. Super helpful and clear with her instructions. Shes patient and respectful, and really cares about helping students succeed.
Professor Sima Aghakhani is patient, responsive, and genuinely supportive. He explains concepts clearly, offer personal guidance when needed, and foster an environment where students can learn at their own pace—thanks to their flexible attendance approach.
This was an online summer course and she taught part of the course, but I really like how she teaches math. Professor Sima was so patient too unlike math professors I had in the past. She paused and checked for our understanding before passing to next topic. For 185 I would recommend her.
She is so respectful and have a great strategy for teaching
Appears very prepared with good knowledge and mastery of the topics; very approachable and understanding. Uses easy language and ensures students are learning.
