professor Han is very kind and passionate to teach. She does all she can to help students understand the material (which is complex indeed), and provided us with very well-written slides. The homework did take a long time to finish however you do them in groups which is helpful.
Lectures were all over the place, sometimes with errors. Grading is very slow.
Ah, she was confusing, but I would blame that on the class itself. She is a nice lady, and she is trying her best.
She is a nice person, not a particularly tough grader, but be prepared to learn next to nothing about actual CHE thermo. The hws are 90% coding in MATLAB, for obvious reasons does not teach one much about thermo but instead about coding. She claims we will re-use the code in future courses,I'd rather learn thermo, deal with coding when it comes.
Her lectures were not very helpful, and learning from the book is almost better. She tries really hard to make us understand but it can be frustrating and boring. I thought the subject matter was a little harder than 110A, and there was a lot of tedious coding involved in the homeworks (which took a long time). Start them early
Dr Han is one of the greatest professors In the chemistry department. She doesnt shy away from difficult material but shes willing to spend the time to explain if you are. Even with a very busy schedule she makes it happen for her students, and truly cares about their well being and interests. Never done a RMF post but she deserves a way better!!
she'll post her lecture online but it seems meaningless because she was teaching as same as the book. just read the book by yourself.
Take good notes during lectures - they help you tremendously for the homework, and you want to do well on the homework because it will help you when the final grades come in. Read assigned readings. Take the practice midterm and final she posts; it is not the same, but questions are similar to the test she will give. She is also friendly
Overall, Songi was a very fair professor. Her lectures cover book topics, and can be perfectly supplemented by doing the book reading. This part is crucial: do the book reading! It is a challenging class, but it's a class where effort determines your grade. One midterm and one final.
Great professor! To be sure, physical chemistry is challenging no matter who teaches it. That said, I think Dr. Han does it exceptionally well- no curveballs. Take great notes, then take notes on relevant text (not all text is covered). Ask lots of questions in office hours. Get all HW points (you'll need them). Do many extra problems on your own.
I had prof. Han for Chem 1c. This was probably the best chem class I've had so far. She explained the material very well. she did not cover as much as other professors, but she went more in depth. Make sure that you go to her office hours. Believe me you will be glad that you did.
She is such a sweet lady. She really understands what material is difficult for her students. She gives extensions on hw and her tests arent that hard. Watch out for the final though. I got an A on both midterms, and came out with a C+ with my final grade. Bombed it! Go to her office hours!
