Reviews of professor Tahereh Aghdasifar

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Professor A treats you like an adult for better or worse, but is compassionate. Her lectures are really funny and she never gives her opinion during discussions so you feel okay giving different opinions even when they don't agree with the topic. She lets you choose your own due dates and the class will change your life. Take this class!

Great prof! There are readings every night, but she makes sure that her students really understand them during class- super helpful. You have to do 3 one pg class preps, and 2 two pg critical responses- she grades pretty fair, but if you have any trouble she is accessible to help you! Occasional 1-2 question pop quizzes- very clear if you read.

You have 5 small writing assignments where you choose your due dates. you have to print out every single reading assignment which is a total waste of paper. you can only skip 3 classes and if you aren't there right at the time of the class you are considered tardy. she is nice but confusing in her instructions, good teacher for this class though

I've taken two classes with Professor A and she is funny, caring, and the smartest professor I have ever taken. She is knowledgeable about literally everything and takes time to make sure that everyone understands. If you have a class people who do the readings the discussions are great, if you don't it is more boring, but Prof A is always amazing.

This was my first WGS class and Professor Tahereh made it amazing! There is a significant amount of reading assigned for each meeting but every article was engaging/interesting. All the group discussions were legitimately fascinating and she doesn't pressure you to participate.

She's really sweet. Her classes are really easy as long as you do the work. We had like 3 short write ups, a final paper, and a final presentation and readings every day. You can tell she really cares about her students and wants the best for us. Genuinely a good person. Really cool lectures too

Shes an amazing professor, possibly the best Ive had so far in college. She does a great job of helping you to fully understand the readings while not just giving you all the answers. No tests, quizzes on readings every once in a while but not on understanding, just to make sure you read. A few papers that were clearly outlined and fairly graded.

she only wanted to do just as much as was only necessary and nothing more. not flexible on meeting outside of class unless it was her office hours, hard to reach and was not a good email communicator

I recommend taking Professor Aghdasifar for the women in global communities class to fill the studies in American diversity core. The class was very interesting and it's also not difficult. She canceled our class several times too. There are just a few writing assignments and easy group projects and some short pop quizzes.
