Reviews of professor Jiaxing Chen

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
He has a thick accent and his lectures are difficult to understand. You have to pay for online access to the homework and quizzes. His exams are hard and he does not post reviews until a few days before. He doesn't know the art of teaching. He makes everything 10x harder than it needs to be. He should work in a research lab, not in the classroom.

I can honestly say Chen didn't teach me anything. I made an A purely on my own merit. I watched youtube videos, read the textbook, looked up online lectures - anything I could do to teach myself the material as I was not learning in the lectures. Accent is super thick, doesn't understand questions you ask, bad at explaining, and NOT tech savvy

Honestly, taught myself and the only reason I did well was thanks to the SI leader doing extra tutoring. Chen is a super smart guy and is well respected in his field, but he is not a great teacher. When he would show problems as examples he never worked them all the way through.

By far the hardest professor Ive taken, the only way I learnt anything was teaching myself outside of class. Labs were frustrating because he overcomplicated everything and we had to restart many times because he had gave us the wrong instructions or materials.
