She does not like to give A's. However, she is more than happy to give B+'s. Dr. Yang knows her stuff. But if you challange her, she is not not helpful or a nice person. I'd say don't take her classes unless you have to.
The others are right. She loves to hear herself talk, and she can't figure out how to use a microphone. Focus on reading, group project, and online lecture notes. Go to class if you can stand it though because it helps with the exams. Get in good with the TA, makes a big difference.
UGH. What a total waste of a class. HORRIBLY boring, loves to hear herself talk. She gave us NO feedback about how we were doing during the quarter. Reading were okay, but the course had no clear flow. Really really awful, avoid this professor!!
Classes drone on... She knows her stuff in the realm of China, but if you step outside that, she can lose track of everything, and when the class is jazzed on a topic, she pulls it back "on topic" and kills the newfound enthusiasm. Readings are interesting, for the most part, but teaching is iffy.
Not a good teacher at all - should be in the anthro department. Very impressed with her own intelligence - not up for people who disagree. Also, not kind to students who have a harder time understanding. Biggest talent: the ability to make everything boring. Skip her at all costs, unless you like pa
a history teacher stuck teaching rg st class. the course should have been cross listed as a history of china class. lectures-and videos-are boring. grades fairly difficult. class lectures seemed relatively unorganized. side note:(knowing chinese does not improve your grade).
Be prepared to sit through monotonous, slow paced lectures and wasted time spent trying to figure out simple technology. Needs more preparation for classes. Easy workload, however. My suggestion: skip class, focus on reading & group project.
A boring class but most of the work is just a paper and a group project. There is no section so that is nice. She is a teacher that is interested in what she is talking about but she is not great at doing it. Not good with technology.
