Reviews of professor Yuyan Han

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Dr. Han was a really great professor. Yes, this is a rather difficult course, but it would be that way with any other professor. All the information you need for the exams is on the lecture slides. Try your best not to fall behind or you will dig yourself in a hole. Sit closer to the front, attend the SI sessions, and actively listen in lectures.

BIG LANGUAGE BARRIER! She is on the less forgiving side of the spectrum. If you don't go to class, log in to the iClicker and make sure you answer at least one question because if you don't, she will take points away at the end of the semester! Most likely have to teach yourself everything. Quizlet will be your best friend in this class. Good luck!

Dr. Han gets a bad rep but if you study well, you will be fine. The class is difficult but not impossible if you study before lectures. I used her lectures as a review of what I'd already studied because there was so much material for her to go over and not enough time. Study on your own and pay attention to the chapter objectives!

This was a difficult course, but if you put in time and a lot of effort, you will do well. Although some lectures can be confusing, I would say that Dr. Han is a good professor. She is kind and she was always available to talk to/email. I learned to take notes on the slides before class and then add notes from lecture afterwards so I could focus

She was incredibly open to criticism and adjusted her lectures and teaching style halfway through the course to provide a better experience for her students. Honestly how many professor would be willing to do that. She draws pictures on the overhead for you to draw along as a different way to grasp a concept. She also provides EC opportunities.

This is class is difficult, but if you attend the lectures, take good notes, and use extra resources like the SI sessions you will survive. Dr. Han does have an accent but you get used to it pretty quickly. She is always available over email and gives extra credit and make-up work opportunities throughout the semester.

One of the worst professors i've ever had. A significant amount of the material on the exams is taken from neither the lectures or textbook, so good luck pulling the answers out of thin air. Dr. Han also, instead of using lecture slides or educational images, will use the overhead to draw god awful pictures that make little to no sense.

She was hard to understand, like language wise. The exams were sooooo hard! Never again!

Dr. Han is an amazing professor. This class mostly relied on attending (and participating) in lectures, homework from the textbook, and tests/quizzes. Dr. Han had good in-class activities and explanations of concepts.
