Reviews of professor Maryam Alikhani

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
One of my favorite professors in my life. She was so great and really passionate about everything. The class was mandatory, but she is very understanding if you just email ahead. A lot of the classes felt like fun discussions. She gave us a good amount of time to work on the main assignments, which were essays. Would absolutely take again.

The readings are all accessible online, no need for the book. she's a fantastic instructor who chooses good readings to discuss. The papers are graded very fairly and she is very encouraging. I had a dispute with my attendance grade and she was super nice about changing it. Would recommend her!

Dr. Alikhani was amazing! I took her online English 2 class at CCM and she always was available to help with assignments and answer questions when I needed help. She gave great advice on how to improve my writing from essay to essay and I definitely improved with her direction. Very fair and caring.

Prof. Alikhani was overall a great teacher. She gives clear feedback on all of the writing assignments and allows lots of class time to work on them. The class consisted of 4 writing assignments that were all clear-cut and well explained. Her class was not the most exciting class but it was definitely a good english comp 1 class. Would take again!

Professor is very nice and accessible outside of class. Grading is a bit inconsistent especially if she doesn't like the subject matter of your essay. Independent thinking doesn't seem to be encouraged. If you don't go along with the feminist agenda, you won't be too popular in her class.

There's an assignment every week, but that's usually expected from an online class. Gets back to you almost immediately via email. Caring. Sweet. Enjoyed her class

Dr. Alikhani is AMAZING! Her lectures were insightful and engaging! There were 3 major papers (5 total) but they weren't too difficult and Dr. Alikhani never hesitated to help students. She gives thorough feedback on all assignments and actually wants all of her students to succeed. She's an incredibly charismatic and passionate person, loved her!

Prof. Alikhani is a good professor. If you show up to class and put in the work, it all goes in your favor. Also, she is accessible outside of class. The only downside about her class is the boring lectures. Even though these seem useless at first, she made us free write for 5 minutes. It helps in the long run when writing a paper for any class.
