I had a good time taking her 104A and 104B. She's sweet. Notes can be a little confusing to follow

I took Su for 104A and 104B. She is my favorite math professor in the department. She does a great job teaching, and her tests are usually similar to homework problems and practice exam problems. I wish she was teaching 104C.

I think it was her first time teaching 3B, but I absolutely hated taking this class and was constantly frustrated even though I love calculus. A lot of people didn't understand her accent at first and her teaching style was very confusing and not effective at all. We were so far behind the other class that we had to cut two units off.

Math3B . Su X 1 Year, 2 Months Ago

Lectures were anything but clear-- she managed to confuse me on topics I already understood. I primarily learned from CLAS and online resources. We were extremely behind the other classes and did not get to important material until the lecture before the final (she blamed us for this). TA grading on free response questions was pretty generous.

Was consistently disorganized throughout the whole quarter. Sped through and heavily relied on TAs to teach the more difficult topics. Homework did not correlate with the lectures or tests whatsoever. Tests were poorly made and mostly reused exact lecture examples. Made the midterms extremely difficult and as a result made the final much easier.
