Reviews of professor Samuel Wong

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Honestly, it was better than a lot of my in-person classes. He assigned a practical final project (most profs just do an exam) which gave us a taste of linear modeling in the real world. His lectures were a bit long and the assignments were a little proof heavy. However, if he taught one section of a stats course I would definitely switch into it.

His lectures are well organized and he is a very caring professor. He also gives his students multiples chances for bonus marks through out the term! Go to his office hour if you need help, he is more than willing to help his students.

Has some of the best lecture vids I've ever seen. He makes every little bit of the course interesting to learn. Definitely would take again

Can get across information relatively well, but his lectures are very boring and monotone. Tests are not overly difficult but contain many ambiguous questions. However, during the coronavirus crisis, he refused to post his notes online despite writing down his notes on a piece of paper every class which can be easily scanned.

Interesting class with various different applications. I do like how there was a final project rather than a final exam, as I feel like it gives a chance to apply material to another context. Midterm was fair.

He's an amazing pianist and even more amazing prof. Never makes you feel bad about sleeping in class, and has the best stories "back when I was in Florida". Only qualm is that he doesn't post his lecture notes, so you'll have to ask around for them. Even though he sounds and seems boring, I promise you that he's anything but!

Forgot to write a review when I took this class back in Fall 2020. He's a great professor with great lectures and assignments.

As the TA of STAT 332, I want to say that I haven't seen any professor before who puts more time to their courses than prof. Samuel. He is very very nice. His assignment is very good to help you understand the course. As for grading, he always told us to be very gentle and award marks as many as possible. I strongly recommend his course.
