Reviews of professor Hien Nguyen

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
The most unhinged teacher at COM, but he's definitely funny. As long as you show up to class and do your homework, it wont be hard to get an A. He doesn't give the best feedback during class time but if you go to office hours he is really helpful. Expect to put in a lot of hours outside of class doing the homework because he does assign a lottt.

Hien is a great professor. He makes statistics fun and easy to understand, but you have to be prepare to spend at least 2-3 hours per day of self studying. He provides the materials in advance, so get ready for class because this is a highly participative class (he calls on people randomly).

I have had this professor 3 times now and each time he continues to get better. I am convinced there is no limit to his teaching potential. Without Major Nguyen, I would not be the student I am today. He truly exemplifies all that a teacher, leader, and mentor should be. I aspire to make myself worthy of his teachings.

Very generous, he gives an opportunity for extra credit on all the exams and works through the extra credit with the class so you can get the points easily. Curves all the exams and will go back and revise your exam if you are unhappy with your score. He drops your lowest test grade with your final.

Hes such a sweet guy, has an accent thats difficult to understand. The content of that class really wouldnt be difficult if he knew how to teach it. id you take him I recommend going to the stem center and getting tutored for every test, or youre most likely not going to pass.

Very nice person, but terrible if you don't know calculus.  Doesn't go over anything, and you have to learn yourself.  I suggest you go to his office hours or get tutoring for help

He is not very great at teaching. He essentially solves the math problems on his own on the board but does not explain what he's doing. The thick accent does not help, and he's also one of those teachers that don't post any grades during the semester. I was only able to learned the concepts because of the STEM center. Overall do not recommend.

Don't take his class. There is no room for failure he is a very harsh grader. He gives a zero on a whole assignment if you get ONE thing wrong even if the rest of it was all correct. Trust me pick any other prof.

He's one of those professors who are amazing as a person but aren't the best at teaching. He does have a thick accent which can make it difficult to understand. Classes consist of him solving problems from the handouts/worksheets you have to print from home, which is basically all the notes you'll have.
