Reviews of professor Sewan Fan

Rating: 3.0/5, difficulty: 1.0/5
Don't know. Want good grade? take him if you have "resources". I didn't actually learn anything from him. Quiz and test is outside of the homework or lab was really long.

He is probably the most unclear professor yet. Most of your learning is by yourself. You may lose random points on things (you must argue for yourself)
You will be frustrated.
You will be mad at him.
You will find loopholes to his attendance methods.

At least his class is an easy A. Judge for yourself whether it's worth it or not.

I think Professor Fan was a really good professor. I see a lot of negative reviews and honestly, those aren't right. His lectures were really helpful and I think his quizzes, while a little difficult, can easily be aced. All you need to do is pay attention to his lectures, which are exceptional, and you'll be fine.

Professor is very nice and help all student. I think if you have physics class you should choose his class. If he has physics 4B i make sure pick it right th way.

Professor Fan is a mediocre professor overall. He reads off of PDF notes, but would go way off topic in his lectures. Labs are heavy and take too long. However, instead of a final exam, he had the class present presentations of certain chapters and they are easy and have a a clear grading criteria. Only take him if you have not better option.

If you want to self-study, sure take him. His lectures consist of him frequently digressing or reading off his hand-written lecture notes verbatim. Little to no clarification and explanation if you ask questions. Also not the easiest to reach online nor the most empathetic. He seems nice and knowledgeable, but he grossly lacks teaching ability.

Exams have a multiple choice section which focuses on the HW problems. The HW might asks for something originally, but he will ask you to find something else than what originally ask for- on the exam. Then there is a free-response questions which focuses heavily on the lecture, so if you skip class you won't do well on that part.

His lecture is not useful. The lab is too long and super heavy. Beware of quizzes every week. There are 5 long and hard questions, and we have to do them in 25 minutes. Even if I did all the questions in the book, the tests and quizzes are totally different.

He's a very kind and caring teacher who made physics bearable. His lectures are interesting and he's extremely helpful in lab if you're stuck. Attend all labs, do the reasonable required hw, and you'll do well in physics. I wish other teachers were more like him

Just simply wouldn't recommend
