Reviews of professor Shaun Sun

Rating: 3.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
I think if this course was in person it would have been more enjoyable, Shaun was clearly struggling with the online format. He was continually disorganized and left things to the last minute. The weighting of grades was horrendous due to his lack of planning. However Shaun is very passionate about statistics and seems like a nice guy overall.

You can tell Shaun cares about math but that's about where his skill for being a prof pretty much stops. He asks for feedback but then argues what you say when giving said feedback, poor time management skills when it comes to covering lectures in a timely matter and not just cramming it all in at the end, inconsistent marker and a poor listener

Really tough course no matter who the prof is. Shaun was a good instructor who gave the kind of examples. Tests were tough however.

The textbook is more confusing then the lectures. No clear criteria ever set. Shaun tends to say one thing and does the opposite then denies he said it. Late to almost every lecture and test. Basically tells us we're stupid if we don't get something on a test.10/10 would not recommend if you actually want to learn

Shaun was a very nice guy with a good attitude, however, his lectures were not clear and slides were not helpful. If you miss a class you're in trouble. He did not provide adequate time for a review class before the 40% exam. He used a website for assignments that always has so many errors and is not easy to navigate or use. beware of this class!

His tests are not well made and have so many errors in them. during the final exam we had to stop 3 times to correct mistakes he made. His questions are not clear on tests and his marking is inconsistent. you could put down the exact same answer as another person and get it wrong while they get it right. do yourself a favour and avoid the stress.

The materials during the semester were easy and very understandable. He definitely cares about his students doing well and really encourages people to come to his office hours. The only thing is his final exam is EXTREMELY hard. If the final exam was like the midterms and homework it would have been a great class but it was ridiculously difficult.
