Reviews of professor Di Gao

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Professor Gao is an awesome Trig professor! He offers extra credit, and is VERY helpful. He wants all his students to pass. The homework has multiple attempts and the worksheet assignments he goes over with you. The quizzes are literally questions from the homework. The exams can be tricky, but he gives a review and a practice exam. TAKE HIM!!!

I would NOT recommend taking him if you struggle in math. You need to study A LOT to pass this class. He goes very quickly & acts like we should know the material automatically. When questions were asked he would say we just covered it or somehow make you feel dumb. I had to do a lot of studying on my own & was often confused! HW & Projects

Dr. Gao has been my favorite professor by far! He was extremely helpful when I was confused. Your grade is based on exams, online homework, worksheets, and quizzes. I wish I had the opportunity to take him again! Pay attention, do your work, and you'll succeed.

When I took this class I was very skeptical because it was completely online, and I am normally not very good at math in general. However, Di Gao was an amazing professor. His lectures were posted online, and he made everything very clear and easy to understand. We had three exams, the last one was the final, with weekly homework and quizzes.

Extremely difficult

Professor Gao is an awesome professor! I don't think I would have passed this class without him. The first exam is the easiest, but the class does get harder as you go on. So be sure to pay attention and take notes. You can use your notes on the exams which is very helpful. Take him! You will not regret it! Also offers 2% EC for perfect attendance.

The notes he goes over in class is very simplistic, but once you get to quizzes and tests it's like you're taking a different class

I was worried going into this class especially with it being online but Prof. Gao did a lot to help the students in his class pass. He lets you use notes on each test. I recommend fully participating in all the assignments in order to better grasp the concepts. Sometimes I would have to use outside sources but calculator shortcuts helped a lot!
