INT95A . 2 Months Ago

I found her oddly condescending and rude. She would often yell in lecture, and later instructed the TAs to scold students during section because they talked in the lecture. As a teacher she is far better suited to the high school level.

Actually the worst.

Oddly strict about the smallest amount of talking in a massive lecture hall when she's not even lecturing. Has been condescending to students in this class simply because we're freshmen.

Being strict with students in a very weird way. Hard to understand what she is talking about. Never reply to your questions directly but blurry. Constantly blaming students.

Poorly organized and will blame her students if anything happens. Have trouble conveying her ideas clearly to students. Don't accept any talkback or explanation from students. She makes herself the authority and doesn't accept any ideas to challenge her opinions.

For INT 180ED- Very unclear in her instructions, poorly organizes her classes. Makes things mandatory but doesn't tell you, doesn't put it in the syllabus. Will try to fail you if she doesn't see you in class. Does not hear students out, will try to rush you if you try talking to her. Do not recommend her classes at all.

Everything Dr. Kim does is targeted at helping her students. This means that mostly, she will be very brutally honest, so students need to learn to take her comments constructively instead of destructively. She will scare you a little to get you to do something, which proves mostly effective. She can be encouraging when she thinks it will help you.

Great professor, strict and disciplined but also very caring.

Extremely blunt, has no understanding of volume control or basic manners. Always tries to make herself the center of attention. Loves to yell for nothing.

During her lectures, you can sense a very odd condescending tone. She presents herself as being very organized, has neat presentations, but is NOT clear when grading assignments. Her expectations are unnecessarily high and her character is just so poor. Really wishing I didn't take the class...

When you walk into a Lina Kim class, expect to have the material yelled violently at you.
