Reviews of professor Neema Nourian

Rating: 3.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
He memorizes his lectures, a bit disorganized where he can't recall what chapters need to be covered etc. Overall, he's been doing this for YEARS now. I would suggest recording him and going back in to the slides on your downtime. 4 exams, 1 final, 2 assignments and lab. He only curves for C's and D's. 40% of our class dropped after his 3rd final..

Took gen micro over the summer along with prepping for nursing entrance exam. It was heaven sent bc he taught what I needed for the test just in time. With time management and rewatching his lectures, you'll do find. Read & reread test ?s carefully, as he can be tricky but overlearn & you'll do great! Love neema. Did not make zoom painful at all

Neema is very kind and really cares about his students. He will answer all questions and repeat stuff on the lecture if need be. The classwork is basically free points and no homework. Textbook is not needed. Tests, quizzes, and lab practicals are easy but only if u study hard. However, he constantly changes the syllabus and is unorganized.

Professor Nourian is very passionate and knowledgeable. His exams and quizzes are pretty difficult tbh. I recommend printing out the lectures before class to write notes on his powerpoints.

Attendance is mandatory for lecture because he makes you fill a worksheet for each chapter, Its best to record the chapter as he seems to have the test memorized and teaches based off that. you must learn how to apply concepts. Gives points for lab attendance. Grading system is point based. Gives study guides, extra credit. As a person he is great.

Exams and quizzes are based 100% on lectures. There is a textbook, but you don't need it. His tests and quizzes are tricky and difficult so you have to take very good notes. He is a caring professor and will work with you. He rounded up our grades at the end of the semester. He recorded all lectures and posted them on Canvas.

Would not recommend this professor, lecture is very heavy and he doesn't emphasize what he'll will be testing you on from that. The study guides he provides aren't very helpful either. When it comes to lab he does everything from the lab manual without giving proper instructions. His teaching style, doesn't make learning doable.

Professor Neema is very knowledgeable!! He always has interesting facts and adds more information as he lectures. I must admit the only thing is that he's very disorganized but he tries his best! Hes awesome and kind and I would take him again. His lectures are long but it's because he has so much information. He likes when students ask questions.
