This class was one of my favorite classes at UCLA. Even though it was a summer course, I looked forward to commuting to this class. Dr. V is an amazing instructor. She cares deeply about what she’s teaching and cares about her students as well. She is empowering, fun and energetic. She made the subject material fun and engaging. I would definitely take this class again if I could. Or any other class taught by this professor!

This was one of my favorite courses at UCLA. This professor actually gives you the opportunity to talk and discuss the materials in this class. She gives you access to all of the literature beforehand. The stress-free environment allowed the class to engage in thoughtful discussion. Professor Valizadeh always made herself available to students and genuinely cares about her work and the lives of her students. I would definitely take her again!

TAKE THIS CLASS!!!!! There are no words to describe Dr. Nooshin she is engaging, smart, insightful, funny ... this class was the best thanks to Dr. Nooshin the topics talked about can be heavy but she has a way of making it fun engaging and educational. She is so sweet and cares for each student so much, she really wants the best for her students. She puts so much time and effort to make this class what is it. This class is totally doable if you just do the reading and come to class you will get an A . I’m so glad I had the pleasure to take this class and I would take another class with Dr. Nooshin in a heart beat !! Dr. Nooshin is the best !!!!

Dr. Nooshin is one of the best professors at UCLA she cares about each of her students on a personal level and does everything in her hands to help them be successful in her class and life in general. Her class consists of a midterm and final paper which are super doable. If you don’t take her class you will never know what a truly inspirational teacher is .
