Reviews of professor Yong Kim

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
awful professor. Dont take! Youll regret it. He goes way too fast and is extremely rude. He literally will completely disregard everything you say & then ask you to repeat yourself. By far the worst professor Ive ever had.

Dr. Kim is an incredible professor. Every day I walk out of his class having learned something new. It is obvious that he cares about political science and international studies, and anyone who wants to learn about these topics will learn a lot from Dr. Kim. I recommend Dr. Kims class to anyone who is learning about the impact of politics.

Yong Kim is one of the best professors in the New Media department. He's fun, he makes an effort to inspire students and he's a great conversationalist. Anyone who says he isn't a professor clearly doesn't appreciate him for the true gem he is. A great guy all around, and a great professor :)

This class was a favorite for me this semester. He doesn't expect much from you and is very lenient with handing in things later on. He's also very patient and will help students in any way he can, e.g. printing, photo advice, extra credit, etc. Overall, he's a great professor, and I hope others will feel the same way :)

This class is definitely on the easier side, but still taught me new things. Dr. Kim does have an accent but it's really not much of a problem and he's very nice to his students.

Every class involves endless PowerPoints. The only thing you'll do besides taking notes is a group project, two quizzes, and a final exam. He also makes you rank the group projects--these rankings determine some of the grade, which is unfair in my opinion. Overall, would not take this professor again.

This class is all lectures, and youre graded based on 3 tests and two responses to questions. He has a heavy Korean accent, making him hard to understand. A lot of his examples/explanations dont make much sense. Would not recommend.

he was a new prof. long lectures that were very boring. did offer extra credit to add percent to students overall grade when average grade was practically F (might change for future classes) lectures dont make sense Very hard to understand and dont recommend taking his class. its graded based on your essay response to 2 questions and 2 exams.

Yong is very easy-going and open about his experiences as a photographer (almost to the point of TMI). He moved very quickly through the Photoshop instruction sessions, which was difficult for first-time users like me, but he is willing to slow down if you ask (or show distress haha). His class also helped me learn how to use a professional camera.
