Reviews of professor Yan Wang

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 1.0/5
Professor Wang is great! She is very clear and gives tons of extra credit opportunities. There's an easy quiz for most classes but they're short and mostly done in class with her help. Exams are online and aren't difficult. The class was slow for me (I've taken stats w math department) so I skipped a lot, the powerpoints were more than sufficient.

She is THE professor to take for research methods 2. Her lectures and slides make stats easy to understand, she offers extra credit, she's very kind and encourages students to ask questions. She asks for and listens to feedback from students to make the course better. Probably the best prof I've had.

I loved Professor Wang! Legit understood statistics because of her! I highly recommend her to anyone else who needs to take Research 2! Will say though, idk if it changes or not, but the TA was terrible. Super passive aggressive, went way too fast when teaching lectures, and outright rude. Love professor Wang tho, just wish she had a better TA

Prof Wang is awesome and will step-by-step guide through the steps for work. She takes attendance (graded) via the attendance app. Shooort quizzes are usually done online in class leaving little to no homework. Lots of extra credit. Exams online. Prof Wang is easy to approach and really cares for her students! Would recommend her a million times.

I spent 4/5th of the semester completely lost. Yan has a monotone voice and it was really hard trying to stay awake. He tried his best to explain the material, I'll give him that, but there was little to none examples done in class so the exams will hit you like a bus. The material itself can be really tough and there's no curve. Good luck.

She genuinely wants everyone to do well in her class. We have 2 attempts on online exams and unlimited on quizzes. Only one group project, doing an article review presentation. She ALWAYS offers extra credit opportunities. She cares not just about the material, but her students' learning and wellbeing. One of the kindest people you'll ever meet!

Prof. Wang makes statistics look easy. She's honestly the best and super willing to help whenever you want. Quizzes and tests are all online and you can take multiple tries on the quizzes which helps a lot tbh. 100% recommend taking stats with her, you won't regret it.

Yan was THE BEST professor I have had in the psychology department. She does step by step instructions readily available in her slides and she actually cares about her students. I 100% recommend taking her class if you can.
