Reviews of professor Renwu Zhang

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 1.0/5
This class was graded by 30% attendance and 70% final exam. Sounds scary but honestly really easy if you attend almost every class for credit and really take notes on the homework. The final is covered based on the homework. Professor is super nice but has a heavy accent, so just ask to clarify if you didn't catch what he said.

Renwu Zhang is such a great professor. He really wants to teach their student education. I was afraid of Chemistry. However Professor Zhang really made me understand chemistry in a simplest way. He is not the type of professor who will make a subject super complicated. If you really give your time to actually study, you will pass. I respect him. :)

You will have teach yourself from the book or get tutoring help for his class. Even if you teach yourself from the book, you will still lose credit on tests and exams if you use the book's methods instead of his. He doesn't give good feedback, and often skips "what you should already know," even if it's clear most of the class doesn't understand.

Zhang is a great professor, sit up front and pay attention as his accent can get in the way sometimes. If you ask him to repeat something or do another example problem he won't hesitate to do so. HW is not too bad, but it was def overwhelming at times. Only reason he's getting a 4/5 is because he crammed the last two chapters 2 days b4 the final.

Mr. Zhang is the best! Hes extremely responsible to the students. Hes good at drawing to explaining things. I highly recommend to do all the homework , but even if you dont understand it all immediately, hes great with clarification and lecturing!

The class was fine until he stopped teaching it and his TA had to teach the rest of the semester. We only have a midterm and final and the midterm was probably given at week 10. Study guide helped but the rest of class was bad TA writing wasn't visible what so ever and final was based on him. Ask is hes teaching the whole semester if not then bad.
