Real easy class. She expects everyone to read textbook and do homework every day prior to the lecture. 10 quizes 4 exams 1 Final. Final grade is affected by the attendence. It can help as well as hurt your grade.

Ms. B emphasizes that the class quizzes/test/final whatever are all based on HW. So pretty much do your HW as many times as it takes to FULLY understand. Also reading the textbook prior to the class helps, however this class is heavy load. Ms. B is really understanding and makes an effort to help her students. DONT MISS CLASS

B is a great professor for people who are really into math (like me). Yes, she is terribly hard to understand, and her handwriting is abysmal. The material is difficult and to pass you HAVE to do the homework and come to class. She loves to give partial credit, very easy to work with, and is very passionate. That's what I enjoyed about her class.

she is by far the best math prof I have ever had. She is extremely intelligent and knows the material well. to go along with being well prepared, she is caring yet powerful. she is always willing to help you succeed. if you do not pass one of her classes it means you didnt try. My favorite part was her sense of humor. TAKE HER CLASS!

This is by far my favorite class at Bellevue College. Why? Because she devotes her time for students! She stresses the importance of doing homework, even though its not required, and she motivates you to learn harder and harder. Yea.. she's a tad bit hard to understand, but once you get pass that and get to know her, she's a down-to-earth person!

She will not give up until everyone understands! Very helpful. If you don't mind an accent, then she is the best. She gave extra bonus questions and was very happy to help. I loved her so much that took 148 with her as well.

She is very interested in your understanding of the material and will take time to help you understand it after class. The textbook is TERRIBLE so you will be glad she is there to help you. She gives HW to study from the book otherwise I would say don't even buy the book. She is a great teacher. Do HW, attend class, ask questions and get an A!

This professor has a deeper understanding of physics and the ability to help. This is not a class that you can walk in and get an A. Physics is generally hard but this professor makes it easy and understandable. I rate this teacher a 5 out of 5.

Great teacher. One of my favorite. If you dont understand, ask after class. Dont go home confused, she will stay behind explain EVERYTHING. She passed me even though she knew I slacked, but motivated me to do better and I am.

Great teacher with great understanding of her subject. Really outgoing and willing to help. Her grading is always to your benefit, sometimes even when i didn't deserve such kindness. She motivated me throughout the quarter to become a better student and really made me interested in the subject which I thought i would hate!

She is very helpful! People have concerned about her accent, but I don't really think it is a big deal. What it has to do with physics????? If you are wiling to learn, you will anyways. She really care about the students and gives lots of extra credit. There is no homework assignments, but you have to do in order to a good score.

Best teacher I ever had. She will not give up until everyone understands the material. She gave out so many bonus questions and quizzes. Its an easy A if you do the homework and attend classes. I have never seen a teacher help this much really she is perfect.

Very easy class. I can't understand her because of her accent. But she assigns minimal hw and then bases her quizzes and exams around them. If you do the hw you're golden, lots of extra credit. I study msybe 30 min a day and im getting an A. P.S I use pauls online notes for help since I can't understand her. And I'm doing great.

Finally a good teacher to teach MATH238 for evening class. If you work on your HW, you'll do fine on quizes and exams.

Amazing instructor!By attending the class every day you get extra points.Doesn't check homework but the tests are from homeworks so if you do it you'll get a good grade.She cares about her students so she won't stop till everyone understands the material.If you get a bad grade is only b/c you were lazy!Offers help outside of class.Highly recommend!

Sira was hands down the best teacher ive had at BC, I say this because of her love for the students, I believe its really important for a teacher to have care for the students. Her quizes really prep you up for the tests. Overall, ive learned more in this math class than any other math class ive taked, iven never felt so confident coming out of m

great teacher, she will push you to study. great great teacher, very friendly and nice, physics is hard but go talk to her!! she is more then welcome to help. you need a lot of help for this class for me i just learn the simple physics so .. but great do good on final and major exams . then your great will be ok

Professor Bezirganyan was very helpful. She has a way of explaining calculus in easy ways which makes it more enjoyable. Even though I usually struggle through my math courses I got an A in that one. So It is very possible to succeed in the class.

Very good teacher for students who are motivated. If this class gives you a hard time it's not because of how she teaches, but because of some gaps you carried through from prerequisite classes. There are lots of tests in this class, so be prepared to work hard. But don't expect to get an A just because you spend MANY HOURS on your homework.

Sira was a great teacher. She uses weekly quizzes instead of homework. These were more effective for study. Her practice tests were just right too. I enjoyed her class.

I took her class on Spring 2013, she was a great teacher. Her lectures are a bit hard to understand if you don't read prior to attending her class. Do the home works and you will do well in this class. Easy A.

Sira was great. I don't know what all these mean comments are about...She was super lenient with my work schedule and often gave take-home quizzes, and you learned your lesson if you didn't study for real for the exams. HW isn't required, but it's smart to do it because quizzes and exams replicate it. She will take extra time helping you, too.

She was great. Very helpful if you asked for help. But you better do the work, don't expect a good grade with no effort.

I loved having her as a teacher! She explained everything in a way that was easy to understand. She is nice and funny. Yes, she calls her class lazy... but that's her way of motivating her classes. She doesn't mean it.

She push you study hard and is really helpful. She will explain thing many times until you understand how to solve the question. I mean she even put her cell# in the syllabus.

Realest math teacher I've ever taken. The exams are basically rehashes of quizzes, which are given back and explained by her. She also has a good sense of humor, which is supported by her alpha Eastern European (sounds like a Bertha) accent. Overall, an enjoyable math teacher.

Very excellent teacher, remember to study.

I took Siranush for Math 138&148. She is an awesome teacher. She makes sure that everyone in the class understands the material and is prepared for a test. Hw is optional but quizzestests are based off hw questions. Overall, a super teacher. Highly recommend her to everyone!

Sira is a wonderful professor, and she really cares about her students! Her accent was a little difficult at first, but it's easy to get used to. She gave around 8 different 15-point quizzes, and not only gave us the option to "argue points back", but also gave us "Pop quizzes" (that she warned us about beforehand) for the opportunity to 1-2 points

Physics is always a TOUGH, demanding and frustrating course. Siranush was very helpful to her students in teaching this class. She repeatedly went over examples from assigned homework until she felt we understood. Her exams are fair, but she is VERY particular about showing details in our work in addition to just solving the problem asked.

Sira is a super nice teacher, she will do everything she can to help you learn and pass the class. On the other hand, however, her English is sometimes a bit difficult to understand, which makes learning a difficult subject very challenging. I wouldn't suggest taking her class unless you are ready to, potentially, do a lot of learning on your own.

Siranush is a sweetheart and really cares ans listens to her students. Labs are group work and homework is optional but recommended, as quizes are drawn directly from homework. Shes predictable and consistent, and lectures are informative. I personally struggle with physics so I did have to study a lot out of class but shes always ready to help.

She's always ready for her students

Quizzes are all from homework. Hard to understand her lecture. Deduction for detailed stuff on quizzes and labs. Nice person.

Sira cares a lot about her students and wants to see them succeed. If you are having any type of difficulties ask questions, and she will be more than happy to go over the issue until you understand. She does make you work hard, but I feel all of that hard work will pay off when you continue in the calc series.

Not the class you would take without a deep understanding on pre-calculus. We had 10 quizzes+2 major exams+1 final examyes, it is a lot. DO go to her office hour and make sure not to skip class too often as it is part of her grading criteria which can give you some extra credits. She is fast at returning quizzes and has no pop-up.

One of the best professors I have every had. It is apparent that she cares about her students and is willing to take time to help her students. All of our quizzes (both in-class and take home) were graded and returned promptly. She also gives A LOT of extra credit (due to her grading being a bit hard). Take this teacher if you really want to learn.

Great professor for physics. Sira really knows her stuff. Extremely helpful in class, and is willing to work with students outside of class. However be ready to work, Sira's classes are by no means easy, but you will achieve a very high level of understanding. So the pain is worth the reward.

Siranush Bezirganyan is the best physics professor I ever met! She motivated me to become a better engineer. And she is the reason why I love physics, and I love how she is so passionate about teaching physics. She is full with positive energy and so kind hearted! Thank you Siranush!! And I'm getting my minor is physics!

She's really smart, motivates students to do better and always there when you need her assistance. The fact that she's a math professor as well is helpful, she would show you math shortcut to solve difficult physics problems. Very generous with extra credit but you have to work for it. Quizes are from HW directly, so study and read the book!

Sira was awesome! Class was interesting and enjoyable, and she was always willing to help go over any concepts that weren't quite clicking. Very important: DO THE HOMEWORK!! It may not be looked at or turned in, but the quizzes/tests draw from it. Plus, the practice helps. :P

This is one of the best professors I've had. Tough class, but she gives a lot of extra credit. She's sweet and caring of her students. Definitely take her class.

Siranush is a good teacher. The only problem is that she is so good in doing calculus on her head that she would skip some steps in the solving of sample problems and that would make some students lost. But she would always step back in case of questions and she gives a lot of opportunities for practice and getting extra points.

The best way to handle her class is to get some good online lectures that you can watch for the conceptual material, and get into contact with an old student of hers to look at their old quizes to know what problems to study most. She takes exam/quiz questions from the homework, but there are too many problems to study without such a study guide

Getting "A" is not that hard, but you have to put your effort and time on it. She pretty care student succeed in her class. Giving off lots of bonus points throughout the quarter since she tries to boost your score up. The participation may contribute your score into the final.

Sira is an amazing professor and will really help you understand the material and not just do the problems and move on. If you do the homework and show up to class you will learn a lot in this class.

Second time taking Sira's class and she is a great professor. Most of the quizzes are based on the homework so if you study you will do great. She has helped me a lot in learning physics and math and i would recommend taking her classes to everyone who is serious about learning either.

There are 5 informal and 3 formal labs. She grades informal labs for completion. Quizzes and final are hard but not too much. Lectures are really boring considering they are almostly about problem solving. For the students who know physics well, take this teacher just do the quizzes and finals and its an easy A.

Professor Bezirganyan is such a good professional! You need to study for her class, and she really cares about her students and helps with extra credits.

My first time ever taking physics, and she was an amazing professor. You really have to work for your grade, homework is optional but quizzes are directly from the hw. She does grade by looking for her way solutions but the more you pay attention in class, the more you begin to pick up her style. She made me love physics. Took along Calc 3 and CS.

Pr. Siranush is very tough and the course contents are also very hard. She is a very tough grader so she will pay attention to the least mistake you can make. This class is really heavy so don't try to take it with other harder classes. However, she is very caring about her students and she will help students anytime during and outside of class.

Ask lots of questions, visit her during office hours, use every source you can to show that you are trying hard. She loves students who look like working hard and enjoying physics. Then you will be able to get enough extra credits to bump up your letter grade.

this teacher was the lime light of my life. 10% in extra credit. formal labs and informal labs are completion based and no homework grades. Only 6 (2-takehome) quizzes, midterm, and final. The final only covers half the class (ch 8-13). very friendly environment with discord server. Very willing to argue points back.Although no responses on outlook
