Reviews of professor Safieh Ladani

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
I had her for Chem Lab 2100L and she was very nice. Her ascent might give you little trouble but eventually you'll understand. If you need help, literally ask her during the lab or office hours, she will help as much as she can. For me I had a great time, she helped me with everything and it was really nice. Don't judge a book by its cover.

awful, avoid at all costs. she lectures fast and skips slides. expects you to be an expert in the subject when she cant even explain it well herself. NOT helpful at all, was having computer issues couldnt turn in the hw online, so i did it on paper, she SHRUGGED and said she wont accept it. i had her for CHEM 2400

She is very lecture heavy and goes fast. If you miss lecture, you will fall behind. She gives a lot of examples and explains things well.

WOULD AVOID at all costs, take another class. Very strict on deadlines and hard to work with. If an emergency comes up, get ready to go to class anyways. The lab is straight forward but if you want an A, you basically have to be perfect. There are other professors willing to teach and not degrade you for asking a question.

From taking online labs due to COVID to taking an organic lab in person was not too bad. She loved to teach and help students in the lab. If you are confused in lab ask concisely and respectfully and she will be glad to help.

I took this class in the summer, and it goes by quick. She is amazing at explaining just what needs to be done for lab and she answers all questions concisely. She does grade a little hard on lab reports and that's because they're so simple to do. Labs aren't due until a week later as well so of course she expects for you to perfect it.

She's not a bad teacher but I couldn't handle how she lectures. Miss 1 day and you might as well not go back lol you'll fall so far behind. Her tests are completely different than what she taught.

Honestly not sure what I was expecting when I first started this class but Ladani is very understand, sarcastic, and pretty strict as well. She is a very nice prof and expects the best from her students so be sure to always be on your A game. she is very sweet and supportive.

She really tries to get her students to understand. She's a great professor just for me personally it was hard to understand. Also is very strict on deadlines, doesn't really extend. She averages past midterms, instead of doing makeups. She does give lots of resources like past midterms and study guides.
