Reviews of professor Yuxia Qian

Rating: 3.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
The class itself is heavily based around groupwork so be prepared to work with other people. On top of that, the exams are semi indepth so you'll actually have to read and understand the material being taught to pass. Dr. Qian is a super nice lady overall and tries her very best to make class interesting.

Dr. Qian is nice but this class isn't the most exciting. The work is easy if you put in effort, I suggest having the textbook open as you take notes from her slides, and the grading and assignments are clearly listed. It's an easy A but it's very easy to get bored. I have flashcards for this class on knowt user mpush under semester one.

Oral com 10 is unbelievably boring. I wish I didn't have to say that but taking it with her is a major slog. She doesn't remember students names, reads off of the powerpoint slides (despite this being a speech class). Attendance is mandatory but you could get all the required notes off of D2L. Overall, just frustrating.

Had her for two classes. Very clear lectures, tries to make class engaging with videos or interacting with the class. Spends time going over projects & clear grading expectations. I felt that she grades fairly. Always available/willing to answer questions. Study guides were SO helpful, as long as you put in the time to study it is not difficult.

Such a sweet lady. She mainly graded on tests/quizzes and papers. Quizzes are online and pretty easy if you look back in the notes in the lecture. She would play funny little videos to help explain the chapter and made us do little group discussions. Would take her again.

I like that this class is online only but I don't like the way the grades are based purely on quizzes. I didn't learn anything in this class at all and every single quiz being 5 minutes for 7 questions was completely unfair. normally, I would rush myself to get the quiz done but sometimes the system logged me out mid quiz.
