Reviews of professor Lei Zhao

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
I love Lei! The best accounting prof. at SLU in my opinion. She is so caring and smiles all the time. You can tell she loves teaching and wants you to do well. The subject matter is tough, but she teaches it well and is always willing to help you out if you need it. Strict with participation, no phones/laptops, etc. but she is the nicest lady ever.

Professor Lei is so cute! She's so kind and really cares about students. This class was totally asynchronous and Lei worked so hard to give us every resource possible! We used Wileyplus where you have lots of reading quizzes and hw but it was easy to get As on those. Study up for the tests but she prepares you to succeed on them! Take this class!

Her accent is very strong, and it is hard to understand her at times while she is lecturing, although she explains things pretty well. She also is extremely strict (no phones or laptops or being late). If you don't get the hw problems right on the first try, then you can only get up to 50% per problem. She doesn't give review materials before tests

Professor Zhao is one of the best teachers I've had. She is insanely kind, caring & proves that she wants each student to succeed. She's available to meet outside of class and explains things in a way that is easy to understand. The no technology rule was actually helpful, allowing for students to stay engaged. I highly recommend taking her class.

Lei Zhao is extremely caring and wants everyone to succeed in her class. She takes attendance, and if you're late, then you don't get credit for being there. However, if you participate in class, she is more likely to make an exception. If you put in the work, there is no reason not to get an A in the class.

She is probably the best accounting professor at SLU. She makes everything easy to understand and goes into detail on how to do problems. Tests are kinda tricky but as long as you go to EVERY lecture and study a couple days in advance it is easy to do well. Accounting is overall hard but professor Zhao made it easy compared to my past professors.

Some people think she is difficult but she gives you great handouts in class that you can look back at later. Also, she tells you exactly what the 3 short answers will be (70% of the test) and the rest is multiple choice which is not that hard. Homework is WileyPlus and harder then the tests, but watch the videos on the homework and its fine.

Take her for Managerial accounting, you will not regret it!

Lei Zhao is caring & is always willing to help! The class is difficult in general & there is a lot of information during lectures. You handwrite notes in class & do handout packets. There is homework for every chapter, 3 tests, & a final exam (the 2nd test counted as the midterm). I recommend reaching out to her for help!
