When I was looking into rate of my professor in grad school, I realized how much I appreciate Prof. Zhou. He always took the time to answer my questions until everything made sense. His constant encouragement and reminders not to doubt myself really boosted my confidence and kept me going on my path to grad school.

Doing the midterm reflections was a great chance to learn and hear different perspectives. It really helped create a supportive environment IMO.

Couldn't ask for more in a professor. Explained everything you needed to know, and the homework and exams weren't too bad.

Dr. Zhou is super accessible outside of class in office hours. His midterm extra credit is helpful, and his in depth study guides make sure students know the general flavor of exams. He will never give you a problem you have seen before on an exam, but with studying, they are certainly do-able.

its a really hard class but prof zhou is super understanding, is willing to help you understand the material, and is very accessible outside of lectures. he also offered extra credit opportunities for the midterms by doing reflections and presentations.

The lectures were clear and engaging, significantly enhancing my comprehension of the material. Additionally, Prof Zhou's generosity with extra credit opportunities reflected a sincere commitment to student success.
