Reviews of professor Nahid Meshkin

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
A memorable moment with Prof. Meshkin was when she kept on insisting me to agree w her that I wont be a good nurse. Despite me disagreeing several times, she wasnt pleased until i finally said what she wanted to hear. She gives confusing riddles in place of clear direction, is passive aggressive & overtly neglects/abuses her role as an educator

Prof. Meshkin is an exceptional educator. She encourages students to think critically about patient situations and emphasizes learning. She respects and supports each student's learning needs. She expects high effort on paperwork, if you put in the work, you'll do well. Overall, she's a fantastic professor, and I had a great experience with her.

Tough but fair. Will expect a lot, but if you're honest about what you're not understanding she will dive deeper into that to help.  Grades by hand (vs online) so be prepared that care plans may take a week to be graded. Be overly prepared with your med sheets BEFORE clinical; she will have you teach her 1:1 first before med pass to patient.

I have taken all my classes at Saddleback College and Professor Meshkin is the only professor I was not inspired by. Her feedback is confusing, she grades assignments late, directions are unclear, she was unable to put aside her "by the book" thinking and just teach (which is what we really need). Keep your head down and know it will be over soon.

Prof Meshkin has high expectations, but I never found them to be unattainable. She expects you to work hard and try your best and will tell you when you need to improveeverything need to become a safe, skillful nurse. There were several in my group who were, frankly, lazy and didnt vibe with her approach. Honestly, Im so happy I learned from her
