Reviews of professor Minyan Zhang

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Hardly speaks english and uses a very low voice while talking into the board. When asked to clarify something she often does not understand the question and is unable to answer. Never handed back our midterm exam booklets before the final and when asked she said she didn't have access to them.

Math 22 itself isn't that hard but the professor makes it hard. Half the class stopped showing up after the first month because you learn more through the MyLab homework than through prof. Zhang's lectures. Her notes can be very hard to follow and she isn't clear when responding to questions. Don't take her if you struggle in math!!!

Even though she is a Chinese, she speaks clear English. Extremely helpful during office hours. Give tacos and coffee to students who got full score in midterm.

Professor Zhang is hard to understand but class material is quite simple. Resources offered through Pearson and MyMathLab are helpful to see how to solve problems step by step. Quizzes on a weekly basis but if you go to class, take notes, and pay attention the class isn't the worst.

Horrible professor, one of Penn State's many grad students that they stick as "teachers". Barely spoke any english which made the material impossible to understand in class, so don't bother going to lecture. Self taught myself everything I could better than she did, also the exams are near impossible. Avoid her at all costs

Absolutely do not take this class! She is the worst teacher you could ever possibly have. She doesnt speak English and makes NO sense! She faces the board and rarely turns around. Just drop this class! For the price of Penn State tuition this teacher (if you even call her that) is like lighting your money on fire. Complete waste of time and money!
