Comment:

Javad is an amazing mathematics professor! He goes through lectures at an understandable pace and makes sure that his students understand before moving on to the next lecture or topic. He has online assignments (not graded at all) that are great for practice! He has a pretty great fashion sense, and get ready for off-topic jokes here and there!

Comment:

He is the best math teacher I ever had. He explains very clear all the problems and let us practice in class so we learn how to solve each problem. He is always willing to help and make us understand. The material is hard but he makes it easy to understand. To get a good grade just don't miss class, take good notes, and practice at home.

Comment:

He is funny but gets off track sometimes sharing. There wasn't any homework or projects. You'll need to attend classes, especially the review sessions. If you can't do the review problems, you'll likely not do well on the tests because they're VERY similar. There are 3 exams and that's where all your points come from. Book wasn't necessary.

Comment:

The instructor presents the material well. He tells jokes, but there are times that he needs to worry less about being a comedian and more about teaching the subject. He bases your grade only on tests and does not allow extra credit. He answers about half of the emailed questions.

Comment:

I thoroughly enjoyed this class & learned a great deal. Javad loves to joke, but during lecture he is professional & concise. He does a great job of relating the course material to real-life circumstances. Advice: Copy all he writes on the board & make sure you understand test reviews. Negatives: 3 Exams(50 pts each) are your grade, no EC or HW.

Javad is a great teacher! He takes the cake for being the math professor I've understood the most. He takes tangents in his lectures to tell funny jokes to. I would take him again if I needed more math!

Comment:

I will have to say I am good at math, but this class was so easy for me. He explains things very well so that they are easy to understand. The class is just based off tests though so if you don't do well on those don't take this class. He's really funny and keeps his lecture interest.

He is hilarious! Do not miss class, take good notes, and you should pass. I've heard of students passing without ever opening their books. I used it to refer to and thought it was helpful. He really does give you everything you need to do well on the exams. No homework, but notes are allowed on tests so take good notes and you'll be fine :)

I am currently in Javads's class in the process of registering for next term. I will be taking math classes from Javad all the way to vector calc. This prof is AMAZING.

Javad is very straight forward. Your grade will based on the three tests and the tests aren't difficult if you know how to do everything on the review he hands out.

Comment:

Javad is a great teacher. I did really well in the class. He gave great lectures on the material and was helpful when you asked questions. However, I believe he needs to be more careful with what he says in the classroom. He would talk about government and politics which did not pertain to the curriculum and would make occasional race jokes.

Javad was really good at explaining and giving examples. I thought he was an easy grader. He hands out reviews that help a lot with the exam! The exams are open book and you can use notes as well. I didn't think I would learn much because I thought it was and easy class but I actually retained a lot of information!

Javad was a really cool guy and a great professor. The class was easier than what I expected and his lectures helped out on the study guides which are practically his tests. I bought the book and never opened it as he only left about three problems of homework the whole term.

Comment:

Javad is not the ideal instructor to take. He's hilarious, actually he is probably the funniest man at Chemeketa. However, he is a terrible teacher. Most of my class didn't understand any of what he was teaching and when he would ask "any questions?" nobody would speak up because it was too awkward. All the test answers are on his reviews.

This guy is amazing there is no mandatory hw, but being in class matters he goes over everything you need to know to get an A. You just have to put in the effort and take notes.

Comment:

This guy's class is a complete joke. If you are in any sort of engineering or math based program, you aren't doing yourself any favors by taking his class. Delivers the material, but doesn't teach it. Doesn't clear anything up when you ask questions. Loosely assigns homework and the take home tests. He does not care about his class, so how can you?

I took him for Stats I gotta say it was a tough time. I never felt like I quite understood what was going on unit to unit. He's a coolguy, but it's almost like he taught every class as if it was a review ofthe unit rather than actually teaching how to do the equations and stuff. Struggled all term, but somehow ended upwith an A. Testreviewssavedme
