Reviews of professor Khai Lu

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Khai is a good instructor willing to help you outside of class. Just show up, do the work, pay attention, and do the readings. Everything else is skill you develop along with the class. If you fall behind even for a week good luck trying to get back on track with the rest of the class. Be organized if you're going to take this class.

Lots of excel and access assignment but they are not hard as long as you ask for help and follow the book. His lectures are super heavy and boring but as long as you take pictures of the jeopardy definitions you'll pass the lecture tests. Also quizzes for labs but not hard. He gives a lot of extra credit opportunities.

Professor Lu is one of the best teachers within the CIS department. His knowledge of AWS Cloud is unsurpassed, and he likes to bring in AWS Deep Racer to make the classes more fun and literally hands on/engaging. Well worth the time to take classes from him.

Cool guy, always going to help with whatever you need. Lots of extra credit opportunities and very kind. Come at him with a question, he will do his best to help find the answer, maybe even try to find the answer with you!

He seems strict at first but hes actually really nice & laid back & very helpful when you dont understand or need help on something. You MUST attend all class meetings, late work is allowed & gives 3 extra credit opportunities. Please do study for the exams especially the Assessments & there are 4-5 exams total.

I took this class for the summer semester and I had 1 to 5 assignments a day, taking up to 2 hours a day at most. An online textbook was mandatory even though I never looked at it (every chapter was summarized in online lecture videos made by the professor). There is a discussion every week and do-it-yourself Microsoft Access and Excel assignments.

Knows his stuff, but I don't recommend taking him for summer. Bad first impression and lack of professionalism. Does not give clear instructions about getting textbook/access code, so your grades will suffer immediately given the workload and speed of the course if you don't have it. Does not respond right away as he claims.

I took Professor Lu in the spring semester for CIS 150 and he's amazing. The class was really easy, although there was one class meeting every week. Overall, it was pretty much independent work which I really liked, and not much homework. Extra credit was given to inflate grades but I didn't get a chance to do the extra credit and still got an A

Professor Lu is one of the best professors I've had in college. He is extremely responsive and went above and beyond to help me understand the material. He is very accommodating, kind, enthusiastic, & understanding. While the class material is tedious and crammed into the short time period, it was well worth taking the course with this professor.
