Reviews of professor Niushan Gao

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
he doesn't reply to emails & he's not even available during office hours. he would close office hours if no one came in first 10 min like it never occurred to him that some people are in class & can only come last half hour. he doesn't follow a textbook and wont post notes so you cant be sick. not sure why everyone is raving about how caring he is

Honestly one of the best math professors i've ever had. Many comments complaining about difficulty; his exams were very fair, if you attended lecture and practiced questions from the lecture nothing was crazy on the exams. Genuine professor who cares about his students and wants the class to succeed. Would only change the grade breakdown.

He has a pretty thick accent but if you can get past that, he's a really nice guy who knows his stuff and can actually help you understand concepts, not just memorize them. He also has a comedic side, and tries to tell stories whenever he can.
