Summer 2019 - 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 .
