Reviews of professor Seok Bae Jang

Rating: 3.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Freshman-Tbh Jang easy to like. He is ecstatic about learning the language and presents the information really interestingly. However, after completely bombing my midterm IK the problem was the initial structure. The course starts off as being flipped classroom like. (we're expected to memorize A LOT of vocab w not much guidance/structure)

I learned so much useful Korean. He's really funny during discussions and makes sure to create a welcoming atmosphere. The assignments and quizzes are challenging in just the right way; they prompt you to remember the phrases for later use. Also glad I got a primer on Korean literature!

His lecture is well organized and explanations are clear but it's too boring. He always goes over time while wasting time on unnecessary stories. He is very impatient with students making mistakes which makes me scared too speak in Korean. I learned a lot from his class still but wouldn't take his class again

Dr. Jang's Korean class is very manageable regardless of your background in Korean. His class will makes sure you know the contents for the exam. As long as you focus in class and do the assignments, class is an easy A.

Highly recommend Professor Jang. It is clear he cares about his students and he truly wants you to do well. He works really hard for his classes and his teaching style is great. Super educated and well-liked by all his students. There aren't enough good things I can say. If you are thinking about taking Korean, definitely do with Professor Jang.

My views have changed since 1101. The class is not as bad as I thought it was, but I still feel like there are other language options. His tests often contain typos and it is hard to understand what the test is asking and for some, they were missing instructions completely. It is an alright class, but lectures can get boring.
