Reviews of professor Houlong Zhuang

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Tough course altogether but show up to class and pay attention and you'll be fine. Do the HW and at least try to understand the material and you'll be an expert. Dr. Zhuang is very clear in his lectures. However, most the lectures are spent going through the homework problems. Quizzes every Wednesday, 3-4 get dropped.

I think that no matter which professor you take for MAE 201, the class will still be difficult. Dr. Zhuang was an exceptional teacher because he was very clear and always made sure there were no questions. Unfortunately, some of the specific material on the exams wouldn't be thoroughly covered.

Zhuang is a horrible online teacher, but really cares about his students understanding of the material. All of the 213 professors are terrible because none of them even understand the class themselves to teach it. I went to office hours frequently to ask for help and was told completely different answers to my questions from the TA and professor.
