The worst teacher i had at santa barbara. First off, she cannot teach! She took things i knew how to do, and confused me to the point where i could no longer do them. The book was completely useless, and you could not teach yourself by reading it. Your best bet is going CLAS, otherwise you will be so confused. Nice lady, but should not teach-so bad
The class was fairly easy, lectures COMPLETELY useless, went occasionally but didn't pay attention, CLAS is a must and a good substitute for lecture, professor was very nice but generally more confusing than helpful...
This class was difficult, especially considering I took no pre-calc or calculus prior. Attend CLAS, do EVERY h/w assignment, and you should be able to succeed. I managed in A in the class, but it took some work. Wound up teaching myself some of the material by trial and error. She is a bit difficult to understand, but it does get easier with time.
she has no idea what she's doing. On more than one occasion has put the wrong answers on the projector. I stopped going to class altogether and just started attending CLAS and my dicussion groups and squeezed by with a C. Midterm and final were hard. CLAS and my roomate's boyfriend being a calcus tutor is the only way passed
"Princes"! Horrible Professor. Now I will have to retake the damn class.
I had Wei for the easiest calculus class in the series but she was still the best professor that I have had so far in college. Her lectures were very clear and her tests straightforward. She didn't try to teach you random math material that wasn't useful. Her examples in class were superb and overall I would highly recommend her, at least for 5A
She's really nice but if youre not a math person I suggest NOT taking this class. It goes too fast and is pretty hard.
Really awful. If you struggle in math and are only taking it to fill a G.E. DON'T! Her accent is very hard to follow especially if you aren't a math person. Tests are extremely difficult and don't reflect the homework. Curve is useless. She isn't every approachable.
Mrs. Wei is a very bad communicator, and not just because of her incorrect grammar and her accent. She is trying her best, but she is not clear when it comes to explaining math processes. she always adds extra twists to her exams, so unless u are great at math, u will miss at least 1 of the 5 problems. This class could easily be taught better.
Extremely clear on what is expected on exams. Very concise lectures. Some will tell you her accent is a problem... Not if you pay attention. She's brilliant and a very good instructor.

Accent is not a barrier to understanding. I followed every word. She is very clear, and demonstrates the methodical approach to the material. If you do the homework, and go over the examples from class, you will get A's on the exams, as they are always incredibly straightforward. She is very friendly in office hours, and very eager to help.
She has a thick accent, but you get used to it very quickly. Once you get past her accent, she's a pretty good teacher: very straightforward. Shows you what you need to know with sufficient examples to learn the material properly in class. Homework is not too difficult, and her tests are identical to the homework. Exams are very straightfoward.
good teacher. straightforward tests with nothing too different than what's on homeworks or problems she's done in class. She'll basically tell you what's on the midterm/final so it's easy to prepare
A little hard to understand, but uses good examples. Midterms and final are straight forward. Her choice of clothing shouldn't matter.
Overall, she's a good teacher. She does have some faults, such as: poor english skills (she talks like a fob) but you get used to it, poor fashion sense (she still wears sketchers and a jacket that looks like she got attacked by fireballs), but other than that, she teaches very well and her midterms are straight up and easy if you do HW.
DO NOT TAKE THIS TEACHER!!!!!!!! If your options are to take a class by Wei or get sent to Iraq, pack plenty of water and ammunition. She should be fired from this school.
This class screwed over my GPA. You can't undertand her, the TA's SUCK, things are graded unfairly and tests are pretty hard. Don't take her as a teacher if you have the choice and if you do get stuck with her take CLAS so you can at least learn a little cause you won't learn anything in lecture
has a thick accent which sucks bc you need your math prof to be able to explain difficult concepts and you cant understand what she is saying. all the tests are major curveballs and sitting in class was always frustrating. dont take her if you can help it
Hard to understand her because she has a thick accent, but you get use to it. Her midterms were exactly like her practice test so the midterms were relatively easy. This class easy easy to get an A, I didn't have CLAS and I didn't study til the last minute and I pulled off an A. Take her, she's easy!
Is not very clear in lecture, but is fair, very nice, and cares about her class. If you go to CLAS then this class will be easy. The homework is lame but her tests/quizes are exactly the same as the sample midterms she hands out in class.
Terrible. Does not speak English well at all, grades homework completely unfairly, lectures sucked. Only good thing: midterm was exactly like practice test. Take CLAS if you want to do well.
You'll be surprised that she got a job as a professor after one lecture. you're going to come out of class and be like, did someone actually think people can understand what is coming out of her mouth?
She is very nice, so it's hard to get extremely annoyed with her. However, she could definitely work on her English. Tests were fair. Work at it and you'll be fine.
