Mehdi is a very engaging and passionate lecturer! His lecture content is very organized. The expectations for this class are really clear, and while it will require a lot of studying, a good grade is more than attainable if you put in the effort. This class was one of the best I've ever taken and Mehdi was a big part of that.

Mehdi was a great teacher and he knew his stuff. Sometimes he breezed through his lectures to focus on scientific papers which was nice to think about these in a manner that is required for higher education. However sometimes his tests were hard to tell what would be on them.
