Professor Zhang is okay. His class was lecture heavy plus admittedly boring, and he does have pop quizzes. His guidelines for the final group presentation were not clearthe topics are broad but he expects specific informationand he was also a very tough grader on the midterm. Still, he was easily accessible and willing to work with you.

Although It is possible to do good if you show up and do the study guides, it is a painful class. He lectures long and heavy and it is extremely hard to stay focused. For the mid term and final make sure to type your own study guide based off the one he gives you--youll find out why. trust me. Very nice professional guy. there is one group project

As a lackluster student, Zhang's class was my worst nightmare. You have to do the work, reading the textbook helps, be ready for pop quizzes, participate in class, and pay attention in a semi-boring lecture. This was a tough class, I didn't do well - all my own fault. But, he's more than willing to help as long as you ask for it. So ask for it.

Jumped around between countries by the year rather than by country. Average for the midterm was like a 59, lowest being a 24 and the highest an 89. He curved the exam 26 points which was nice but most everyone in the class was constantly stressed. He gives pop quizzes. I think the only reason some of us passed was because 1 month hurricane break

Professor Zhang is a cool guy and tries very hard to be engaging in class. There aren't many assignments  which means that you have to do well on tests in order to pass. His tests are very difficult and he is a pretty tough grader. Besides that, he's a good teacher.

The class was very lecture heavy and only had four assignments that contributed to your grade, midterm, presentation, paper and final exam. For this class you have to attend lectures and read the book in order to pass.

He was alright. Pretty mid. His lectures weren't super engaging but he is a nice enough guy. I wish there were more grades.

He was a pretty decent professor. The lectures are very heavy and there are few grades in the class so you need to study for the few tests and projects. There is a 10 minute presentation and overall he is a nice guy.
