Reviews of professor Zahra Aminzare

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
She cares a lot about her students and is accessible if students care to learn. If you are looking for someone with multiple choice exams and easy A's then look somewhere else but if you are willing to learn, she will help you understand it.

She's okay. Seen better, not many worse though. unpredictable, doesn't know how to explain some materials. Alright at best, i'd look for another prof

She doesn't like giving partial points on exams. She's very brutal at grading. She doesn't let her TA's play ANY role in exam making or grading. She likes to put you on the spot by asking you a question you clearly can't answer and keep poking you about it. Her homeworks are long but worst are exams with no partial points.

Very great professor as she will teach all things very clearly

Seems very disorganized in the lecture, she still taught information well but overcomplicated simple ideas sometimes. The thing that gets you is that the quizzes are almost ALL conceptual questions so all the stuff you've been learning in the lecture you can't even apply. Would be better if she spent more time teaching concepts in lecture.

She gives very few to no partial points while grading exams. I really don't understand how so many people give her 5/5.... she's a 2/5 at best, never had a math teacher who gave no points for trying your best. Be warned, she grades hard and doesn't care how hard you try. Be smart or be gone. Also, nice curve of 15% just about. So stay at 60% ez

Aminzare has a standoffish attitude towards her students as opposed to a more supportive one. She is often condescending and presses students for answers. She spends more time giving examples of concepts in lecture than actually teaching the concepts themselves (which make up the majority of the quiz material).

Her homeworks are too long and exams are too harsh and graded too harshly. Avoid her!
