Reviews of professor Yena Kim

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
I did well in Precalc last year in high school but this class was very frustrating. Her office hours are not very flexible, she is hard to understand, and she makes it hard to do well in her class. The lessons are taught very fast so unless you are very good at math I highly recommend a different professor.

Calculus is a HARD class and exams are even harder. Prof Kim tries her best to explain it to the class but sometimes it's hard to follow or know what to even ask her because again, CALC IS HARD. She does offer LOTS of extra credit so definitely USE THAT. Tests are cumulative w/note sheet but no calculator. Do your hw, ASK QUESTIONS, DO EXTRA CREDIT

Yena is so sweet! Although she does a lesson within one to two class periods, she does oftentimes ask the class if you have any questions. She goes fast, so keep up and do the hw. She is accessible outside of class. I liked her!

Oh god. This HPU professor teaches at Manoa, too?! She should be teaching at neither, because her English speaking is poor. She requires the use of some technology on homework and quizzes and she doesn't even know how to use it herself. When teaching, she tends to get confused, a lot. Above all, she can barely summarize what she reads from the book

Does not convey material at all. Barely understands the lesson herself. Teaches how to do the steps by hand but requires the use of technology on tests and won't teach you how to do it. I don't even bother asking for help because I know she won't understand. Poor English skills as well. Many people have to take her class multiple times-poor teacher
