If you do not understand math do NOT take him. He moves excessively quickly and doesn't slow down. He seems to get somewhat upset when you ask him to repeat himself or go over the problem again. The students who love him already understand math. Take him only if you are good in math. Again, if you are not good in math do NOT take him. Trust me.

There is a lot of homework, but I took an accelerated version of his class so it may not be the same for the longer version of it. He is caring and answers emails quickly. I appreciate that we weren't really required to participate in class discussions like many other online classes. It was a very straightforward math class. Definitely recommend!!

Mr. B is an amazing teacher, got me to finally understand math for once. Gives good feedback even on tests and will go over problems in class from homework if needed. Would take again!

MrB is a great teacher he is elaborate when he is teaching the information. The notes are very easy to follow and after every example he asks if anyone has a question. This semester was kind of tough during the quarantine, but he still continued to post zoom lessons online. He is overall a great teacher. I would definitely take his class again.

I took MAT 1033 and Calculus with professor Bakhtyari, he is the best professor I've ever had. He has different ways how to make a student understand the problem and won't continue until you get it. Very hard working but also expects the same from his students. If you want to learn he is the right professor to take...

Professor B was a great Professor. Gives clear lectures and is always happy to slow down and answer questions. The tests are fair. He provides the tools to help you get the best grades possible. Calculus is a tricky subject and he is aware of it. I would highly recommend this professor.

Professor B is one of the best Math Professors I have ever had. He makes life easier for every student and he is very understanding and accommodating if you need him to be. Fair grader, he cares about everyone and make sure that you understand the contend and if you need help he is accessible outside of class anytime. MY MathLab is where all grades

This class is an easy A, there is no mid-term but a final exam with your camera on. This professor is very caring, he gave you three attempts for weekly quizzes and make sure you pay attention to the video lectures and practice. You have to try real hard to fail this class and he always send reminders to everyone for submitting their homework.

Professor Bakhtyari explains everything very well and makes sure throughout the lectures that you understand what he is explaining. He shows us the problems, works it out with us, then gives us ones to do on our own. Hes laid back and explains everything well.

If you are good at math taking this class, he teaches based on examples, but I stopped going to class due to personal issues so that contributes to my grade besides that he's actually a very wonderful professor, I'm just bad at math

His class is easy as long as you do the work and pay attention to his lectures. He spends time in class to make sure he conveys the information in a way that is easy to understand. The homework helps you learn as well. The only scary part of the class is the final exam which must be taken using honorlock which can be a bit invasive.

Took three classes with him and would've taken more if he offered the ones I needed. I took intermediate algebra, college algebra, and precalc with him, earned an A in each. He requires participation, likes questions, is thorough with answering questions, is clear with due dates, and answers emails fairly quickly. His accent is easy to understand.

This calculus course was better than some of the online math classes I have taken, but the final exam was the worst. Unclear instructions until the last minute, a lot of busy work, and ridiculous guidelines on the final exam. Would not take it again and I am blessed that I'm done with it.

I took this class self paced online. While the professor was very helpful to answer any questions I had, majority of the learning is done via Pearson. That is okay, although the final was created by the professor I assume as it was extremely hard. Luckily it was multiple choice, still extremely hard. Good professor, hard class I guess.

If I had known this professor was only going to teach by examples and not encourage us to work on homework, I wouldn't have taken him. I made the mistake of taken a 3 hour lecture class because I would always be too tired to focus. He was at least nice in my class.

Look up the syllabus! Tests (2) were hard so make SURE u do well on them. The final was proctored, multiple choice, and the IN CLASS review is the ONE to review for it. Do not skip it and u will do well on it. Know your derivatives basically for the whole class and ya good.
