Reviews of professor Sepideh Raei

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
She cares about her students and takes time to answer questions. The assignments/quizzes/tests are open note. She reads off slides during class. All slides are posted on Canvas. There are several group assignments. She is really nice, funny, and knowledgeable!

She is one of the nicest professors you'll have. She knows economics so well and can answer any question you have. Most of the projects are with a group you get assigned to at the beginning but other than that, the class was extremely easy.

I really enjoyed this class and I think Professor Raei is an awesome teacher. The first half of the semester was fast-paced, which I really enjoyed, but when the majority of the students in the class complained, she adjusted and slowed down the overall pace. She wants you to succeed and is very accessible outside of class.

Sepideh is a great professor for Econ 1500! She teaches the concepts in an easy-to-understand way, and if you take notes and stay on top of Homework, you'll do well. Her "Life happens" policy shows that she genuinely cares about her students.

Dr. Raei is one of the best professors I've had, both online and in person. Economics can be boring but she's very good at explaining things so they're easier to understand. You can tell she cares about what she's teaching but she won't push you to do your work or participate, she won't feel bad giving failing grades.

Professor Raei is amazing. She is so caring and makes it clear that she wants to help her students learn the material, not just memorize it. She answers questions thoroughly, and is accessible outside of class as well. The online material was great, and most homework had multiple tries. I would highly recommend taking a class from her!

Professor Raei focuses on making sure everyone understands before she moves on. You can ask the dumbest question and she'll take the time to explain it in complete seriousness. She has her opinions, but understands that other opinions and values are just as valid. I think that's a really valuable quality for an econ professor.

I have never met a professor with the ability to explain in such simple details the ins and outs of economics to make it easily understandable. I would highly recommend her course. It is clear what will be learned and how it will be presented. She always stays on topic and is great when you need extra help.

Sepideh is actually so sweet and funny. The class itself is super easy to get an A in, even though the cirriculum can be a little difficult sometimes.
