Comment:

The first day of class he will let you know off top what to expect. As long as you pay attention to the lectures, takes notes, study the notes, and aren't afraid to ask questions than you really shouldn't struggle in this class.

Comment:

funny guy, but CAN get moody sometimes. Usually answers questions well but sometimes fails to comprehend what I am asking and acts as if I am asking a stupid question while everyone else is thinking the same thing. I probably would only take him for a lab class/other easy class; he is not too comprehensive.

I got an A just for trying and helping students around me. Just show up and put in the work, it's the easiest class you'll ever take and he guarantees passing grades. Do not look elsewhere if considering this course, Sina knows his stuff and teaches it entertainingly, unlike my Astro lecture prof.

Comment:

Sina is definitely the funniest professor I've ever taken. If you come to class regularly, pay attention, and ask questions, you'll do fine. He's very knowledgeable and will gladly explain something again if you don't understand the first time. Very laid back and easy to get along with as long as you're not a delinquent student. Love him

Comment:

For a GE Lab course, it is so easy to pass. If you miss more than 1 class (lab), at the end of the semester he allows you to bring in food to be excused for those missed. He cannot maintain professionalism, and you will not learn anything more than his daily rants on the government or politics. Very unhappy with this professor.

Comment:

You have 11 or so labs that come straight out of the packet. I only used the whole class for one lab; other wise you finish the lab and take off. The labs are easy if you pay attention to the lecture he gives before releasing the lab on you. DO NOT BE LATE. You can only make up 1 excused lab. A on the final if you just study what he tells you.

DO NOT BE LATE. Ask questions for xtra pts, review previous class's material and answer questions he'll ask the next class for review. Show you care and participate and you will be rewarded. He made me want to change my major to astronomy. It's a breath of fresh air to have a professor that is so passionate. Makes astronomy exciting and involves u

Comment:

He's unable to maintain professionalism, yet, he accuses students of being unprofessional. Makes derogatory comments about veterans, and is usually belittling the students in his class. Seems to have forgotten why he's a professor, it comes off like he doesn't want to teach. Being a professor is a choice. Students shouldn't be punished.

SINA IS THE MAN! Seriously one of the chillest and most intelligent dudes teaching at Mesa. His class is lot of fun and Sina is always keeping it interesting. If you're interested in learning about the Universe. Take his class, have some fun, and pick his brain. He is the man.

Comment:

Participate!!! This is a teacher who truly wants his students to learn about Astronomy. He doesn't "play favorites," he simply expects a lot from his students and doesn't like when students don't study. He's an amazing professor and I would love to take a class of his again. He's so knowledgeable and it makes you want to know more, too.

Comment:

It was an absolute pleasure to be in his class. He has a sarcastic sense of humor but you can tell he's a little disappointed in this generation. He wants student to have a good education and it shows, so he gets insulted when people don't take their education seriously (tardies, being on phone, ect). Labs are easy and he even let you make it up.

Comment:

This man is certainly educated, but the way he treats his students can be so appalling, that it makes class sessions unbearable. He is not reserved enough to hold back his judgements and even announced in class that specific students had failed their exams on multiple occasions. Do not take his class if you do not support this sort of treatment.

Comment:

Great teacher and we'll versed in the subject. Can come off abrasive to some people people but it's mostly just him calling people out for not paying attention or talking during class. He has a dry sarcastic sense of humor which I found amusing. Just show up, take notes, speak up every once in a while and you'll be fine. You'll learn a lot!

I would recommend him to anyone. Perfect way to get s science lab done because he doesn't ask much and class is ALWAYS done early, which is awesome! Sometimes it's hard to tolerate his harsh sarcasms, but he's only joking around. Come to class on time and don't get on his bad side, which can be easy to trigger sometimes. Don't worry,he's easy&nice.

Easiest lab ever!!! The lab is suppost to last for 3 hours but they never do. They range from 45-90 minutes at the most. Easy A, he knows his stuff. The only thing he asks is that you show up on time.
