Reviews of professor Mirae Kim

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
I enjoyed Dr. Kim's class so much. While she gives a lot of homework, it was all worth it because she's such a good professor. She is very knowledgable in her field, great at communicating information, and just generally pleasant and funny. She gave test questions in advance which was super helpful. Also brought us snacks and pizza!

Group work every week for an asynchronous class and very very challenging course material. You learn a lot but its very math heavy and detail oriented work. She typically replies to emails in minutes and is very willing to help outside of class.

This class has been, by far, the most valuable for me in my entire MPA courses. I highly recommend anyone in the MPA program to take her course.

Provided useful and interesting insight into how nonprofits can identify new sources of income, and why they should pursue certain types over others. Was both intellectually/academically stimulating and seems useful professionally as well.

This is for PUAD 660 at George Mason. This online course was highly effective for working professionals like me. The short, 10-15 minute lecture videos each week made it manageable. What I appreciated most were the practical case studies, which helped reinforce the concepts. Her prompt email responses to my questions made the course worth taking.

Dr. Kim is very nice and a great professor! She requires a lot of reading and regular writing but you will learn a lot about the nonprofit sector in the process. A semester long group project to form a nonprofit organization and 10 volunteer hours were required. Intro was a lot of work but very enlightening. Do the assignments and you will be fine!

Dr. Kim is clearly passionate about the subject matter and takes her work as a scholar very seriously, but she is also approachable and introduces fun activities into our discussions, such as using the game Kahoot to review reading quiz answers.

I wish I could have been more intellectually challenged by taking this class, rather than getting an easy A and having snacks. Dr. Kim's lacking of knowledge about how non-profits really work in practice limited her teaching performance.

She was one of the best professors I've ever had in my 6 years in school (undergrad + grad)
