Reviews of professor Li Zhu

Rating: 2.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
Firstly, the class is relatively easy. However, I would disagree with the other reviews listed, because she is not great at covering the material. She makes examples on the fly that tend to complicate the points she is trying to make, she at times has "forgotten" how to solve problems, and overall is not good at addressing students' questions.

She knows how to teach Math. She is amazing and respects students. She likes to motivate students as well. She does not give much homework but she knows how to let students learn. Her exams are not hard if you have studied well.

Summer class, so material was very fast, but the professor provided lecture notes, and the lectures were on point with with the exams, and she provided examples during exam studies.

Professor Zhu breaks down lessons so they're easier to understand. Luckily, we had a small class and she used this advantage to take time and make sure every student understood the material before moving on to the next lesson. There is a bit of online homework required, but its easy to do right after lecture. Ample opportunity for extra credit.

I took her Summer 2022. At the time, she was a GA, so she may have gotten her Ph.D. by now. But she was an amazing teacher, recorded her lectures and posted them onto Canvas. There was quite a bit of homework (matrices were tedious) but it was definitely doable and she's a lenient grader. She also answers questions clearly. Excellent GA!
