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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
