Reviews of professor Selina Wu

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Great professor! Can simplify and teach non-science students without being condescending! Haeavy course in terms of reading but you will learn lots!

This class isn't the most interesting but Professor Wu makes it as fun as it can get. She is very flexible with extensions (as long as it's a reasonable request) if you email her in advance and is always happy if you ask questions during her mid-lecture breaks.

Re the comment regarding the online course and not giving live lectures. Due to the pandemic this a first for online.I believe she missed a Q and A because of a family issue, and the style of course was NOT meant to be given live- we knew this before taking the class. Also, she did not mark, TA's did. And she offered one on one sessions.

I really enjoyed this professor. Super nice, super chill, fair and clear about what is expected and how to succeed. As a non-science student, she made me want to take other science classes. Extremely knowledgable in her field. Great prof.

Prof Wu really save this course and I love her teaching style so much. The structure is clear, easy to follow. The class is fun and she helps everyone learning something from this course, though most of us are taking it as interest or for the br requirement. I took her ESS105, got a A+. And I'm taking 103 with her right now. Truly recommended!!!

Had Selina as a lab prof. You have to hand draw several rock/outcrop sketches every week. Every lab assignment is 90% sketches which aren't difficult (just time-consuming, boring, and annoying) but I'd honestly prefer regular assignments.

Unlike most, I actually took this course out of interest because I thought it was focused on natural disasters. It's more geology-based, which is pretty boring, but the ability to get such high marks made it a great course for me. If you attend lectures and listen, then go through slides before tests, you'll do fine. I got a 98% on the first one!
