Reviews of professor Xinping Yu

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
Love this professor. She's very kind and flexible. There are about 5-6 units she goes over in the textbook and there is assignments on a web app for every unit. Very easy. The tests and quizzes are all based on the textbook and there are also projects that are easy to do and presentations can be prerecorded audios. Essays are easy too.

Very nice teacher overall; Chinese 1 was a very easy class for me. One thing to note is she typically gives assignments on a weekly schedule, and all of them will be due the day before the exam, but she has a very lenient late work policy and gives some extra credit, so it's an easy class. She has a clear teaching style as well.

The best professor ever. She is also teaching at FresnoState. She gives many pop quizzes and tests, so make sure you pay attention in class. Go to class and try to do online homework, papers homework, and projects. there is no reason to fail. Book and access code are required. She is nice, funny and care about her students. Easy A class. Go for it!

A great professor, and she makes learning Chinese fun. Attendance is mandatory and there are times when you have to present or talk Chinese with your classmates. This class is not difficult if you study well and understand the characters.

Very nice professor that really wants you to win. As long as you do the work, you'll pass the class easily with an A or B

There is a lot of homework, but it is a foreign language class. She is really sweet, works well with the students, and the homework she gives really helps to understand the language more. She works to make sure everyone can understand what goes on before moving to the next lesson but doesn't cater to students who haven't studied. Lots of extra help

Sweetest teacher! Super understanding and really loves it when her students are learning and participating. Unfortunately, on zoom, it's hard to get active participation. I would wager this class is much harder online than in person. Quite a bit of homework but Chinese is one of the hardest languages to learn so that's not surprising at all.

Sometimes is hard to understand what she is trying to communicate because she doesn't know how to express herself , or because her accent. When you ask a question, she will make you feel more confused. She gives LOTS of homework (two hard copy packages and online assignments) that are due the same day, and she does quiz almost every class.
