Reviews of professor Tien (Thomas) Tran

Rating: 3.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
He mostly speaks in Viet. All the 5 ratings, these people came from Vietnam so they already know what he is teaching. If you're really eager to learn, it's super hard if you're a beginner. It's like he teaches Viet in Viet. However, he is super nice though. SUPER EASY HW assignments; you definitely can get an easy A in the class as a beginner.

He is a very caring professor! Gives you food a couple of times during the semester, so he is very generous. I just found his lectures boring since he goes straight off the old Viet 101 textbook. He tries to get people to participate but isn't very successful with it. If you like to get an easy A take this class.

I'm sure this class would be fun in-person, but for an online class it kinda blows. You'd think for a language class there would be lectures to attend to so that we can hear everything to make sure we're saying it correctly. The assignments don't really correlate to the modules we're supposed to read, making some assignments a little harder.

This is certainly the easiest class to get an A and if you didn't, that's probably on you. This is the first course I've ever taken that allows students to make up for their missing assignments weeks after and have multiple do-overs on tests. I love Professor Tran! he truly cares ab his students and I bet his in-person class would be way more fun.

He is a very nice teacher. He is always ready to help you and wants everyone to pass his class. Easy to get an A for this class. If you attend every class and join his activities, you can get lots of extra credits.

One of the best professors I've had at OCC. Not much homework, all you really have to do is pay attention in his class and try not to miss too many lectures and you should get an easy A. He is always willing to help you on any of your work, and really cares that you know the material.

I took him for 180 and 185. He's the best Vietnamese professor I've ever had. Super nice and caring. Quizzes and assignment are so easy to do, easy A. I wish he's teaching at higher level like 280 and 285 but Viet 185 is the highest he can teach. Best professor ever!!!

Professor Tran is a nice guy but hes just talks too much. He spends 30 minutes to an hour before every class talking about his unlucky life, dreams, other classes. He thinks people are using him because hes too nice. But he said class is non-mandatory yet still annoy people about showing up. You get two tries on tests and its an easy A.

Professor Tran is THE BEST. He is so helpful, he tries his best to make class entertaining and he is so nice. He works hard to help his students pass and you can tell he truly cares about his students. I had a hard time communicating Viet to my parents, but now thanks to him, I am better at communicaitng. Thank you Professor Tran!!
