Reviews of professor Chuchu Liang

Rating: 3.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
The lecture is not useful, be prepared to read and study on yourself. The test is easy if you studied because she gives sample midterm and final. The questions on the sample are very similar to the real test. You don't have to go to a discussion or lecture. There are a lot of readings and homework for this class, remember the deadlines.

Its her first time teaching. Her lecture is more like shes saying the notes on power point with monotone. A lot of material to covers and you can only get b+ or more if you read the book (which is long). Even if I ask question on piazza and get the answer, I still dont understand. Class is fast paced. More like we self teach.

Professor Liang provides sample exams for midterm and final, and the questions in the real exams are super similar to the samples. Though the content of this class can be a bit challenging, as long as you do the sample exams, you should be fine. The HW is graded base on completion rather than accuracy. The curve can boost your grade, so no worries.

She tries her best to solve your problem and gives out generous extra credit. This quarter she offers different types of extra credit for the class. As a new professor, she is trying her best to hold the class. Her test was similar to her sample test. main percentage: preclass quiz 15% hw 15% in-class quiz 10% midterm20% final40%

no option for 194 FSA,,, but loved this prof! she is so sweet and really knows her stuff. weekly readings and hw (pretty short), one group project, and only one exam (final) but she prepares u a lot for it so its not that bad. she tries really hard to create a fun learning environment and makes this class very bearable

Her accent is a little difficult to understand but if you put in effort to understand, you realize that she breaks down all the concepts well. She cares about kids understanding concepts and always takes feedback off our class discussion board and implements it in class. Should attend lecture to receive participation and bonus points.

Most of the learning for me was done by reading textbook. Discussions and in a way lectures aren't necessary if you understand the reading. Pre-class quizzes most weeks as well as homework but these are easy to get 100% on. Can't speak to office hours, never went. Pretty easy A if you review practice MT and final. Many extra credit opportunities.

Despite her accent and kinda boring lectures, she is a very cool new professor. Get ready to self-teach yourself through lecture slides and textbook. Office hour helps too since she's very caring for her students and tries her best to answer all your questions. Offers a LOT of extra credits I boosted from B to an A-.
