Reviews of professor Cyrous Ahmadieh

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Cyrous knows his stuff and he explains himself well. His class is extremely lecture heavy. If you do not go to class, you will not pass. He spends the entire class writing everything from the book, so you wont need to read it. But you might not be able to catch up if skip. Don't be afraid to ask him questions, because he does explain himself well.

Do not recommend for Differential equations class. Unclear explanation and skip many steps in solving problems.

Cyrous is chill but not a very good teacher. His lectures are unclear, and at some point I stopped showing up besides test days and started learning the material on my own, and I have an A in the class. I'm giving him an extra point because the class isn't very hard and he's approachable enough.

I took his Summer semester Differential Equations class, which was completely online due to the pandemic of course. He does not require attendance, but you should definitely watch the Zoom lectures that you miss. His internet connection glitches a lot, which made it hard for me to watch the lectures live, but that is not his fault.

Cyrous is such a nice professor! Instead of saying, " no, you didn't get that right!" He would say things like, "try again!" I never felt like I wasn't smart in his class. I liked when he would say, "check it out!" Like math is exciting, lol. Cyrous is super cool and super chill... If you have any questions he's always available to help you!

This professor's lecture is mediocre. After two or three weeks, only half of the people show up for class. However, his exams and assignments are so easy. If you want to get an A, take this class.

Most of the tests and quizzes are based on the examples he gives during lecture. The homework is honestly much more confusing than the examples from lecture, meaning his quizzes and tests arent as difficult as the homework. He doesnt take attendance, but going to lecture and paying attention is a MUST for passing the class.

Read! Read! Read! You have to do by yourselves. Don't skip the class.

By the end of the semester only a handful of people would come to class and stay till the end. This is partly because his lectures were generally confusing but got the job done if you focus hard enough. I would only recommend this class because of how much partial credit he gave and since he is such a chill dude. Just do the homework & u'll be good

I'm taking his probabilities/statistics class. The way he paces his lectures is phenomenal, he's an incredibly patient teacher who provides a very in-depth analysis on the step-by-step actions necessary to solve equations and provides tons of opportunities for repetition for the information to sink in. He's the best math professor I've ever had.
