Reviews of professor Zhifo Guo

Rating: 3.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Took his Lab Course and had to buy lab manual that sold out fast from campus library. Teacher is barely in class and does not really answer questions well. The Teacher Assistants who observe the lab are no help either.

Dr. Guo is one of the least attentive and least knowledgeable professors I have ever encountered. There were multiple labs where neither he nor the TAs knew what to do, and he frequently gave students information directly contradicting the lab manual. He also has a very thick accent, so some of the more complicated concepts are harder to learn.

Has a THICK accent but he really is a good professor. I made A's on the first two exams we had in class and then the class went online due to coronavirus and that's what impacted my grades so horribly. Study all the notes and the study guide he provides and you'll make an A.

His tests were very easy. He gives bonus questions on tests, and he gives extra credit on homework. I was able to get A's on most assignments with just a very basic understanding of the material. The homework takes a lot of time, but you'll get good grades anyways. I had him in an honors course, but he didn't make it any harder a normal class.

Worst teacher Ive ever had. Doesnt teach, just tells and expects you to know it at the level he does. Emailed all of his students telling us to quit asking him questions about an online assignment. Just reads slides during lecture, 0 time to write notes. 100% should NOT be teaching just because of his skills in chemistry department.

The teacher could not teach well and did not know what he was teaching. You will be lost, and he will not explain anything.

He is hard to understand because of his accent. Takes days to reply to emails, or does reply at all. The TA's and some of my classmates are the reason I passed this lab.

This man is disrespectful, uncaring, and filled with sass! His English is as questionable as his ability to understand and teach O. Chem to his students! So if you want to hate Ochem and want to lower your GPA take this class! For reference, he was proud when 40% of his class passed and exclaimed that it was the best his students had ever done!!
