Reviews of professor Jack Cheping Su

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
I think some of the other reviews are unfair. His lectures were understandable (even at 2x speed); his grading was clear and objective; he was always willing to help; the material was grounded in research in the field; the class wasn't especially time consuming; and, I learned a lot from him. Glad I took the class with him. Solid choice.

Beware. This guy is not a good English speaker, it is impossible to understand his lectures. The way he words exam questions makes learning difficult. Unfortunately, this guy is the only person to teach this course. I wish UNM would hire more professors to teach their courses.

Two online exams worth 25% each. Weekly homework based on his recorded lectures totaling 15% and a semester project worth 35%. Tests are tricky but doable if you study the practice exam he gives you. HW is easy if you watch the lectures. Our project was cancelled due to COVID. Never really interacted with the Prof as its all online or with his TA

Very inconsistent. States "this is not a math class" first week of class, then gets mad when I ask for clarification and says "that is basic algebra" without providing guidance. Do not take this guy!

Professor is essentially useless. Doesn't help is any circumstances, even when a student is in need. I asked him for some extra help in studying for the final, where he responded by saying others in the class were doing well, so he shouldn't need to help. Makes the class harder than it needs to be. Terrible.

Easy class made hard, or at least way more time consuming than necessary. Every weekly assignment could have been clearly explained with basic formulas in a single excel sheet. But instead, you get a choice: skim through 2hrs of lecture videos by an ESL prof., or find enough pieces of the puzzle on google. Typical core class.

Took Professor Su online for MGMT 520 and 533. Loved both of the classes and he is the only online teacher that actually puts interactive lectures. Don't know why everyone has given him bad reviews. If you are willing to put in the work, then you will learn a lot and do well.

No reading. You have to watch lectures in which he is so difficult to understand, having captions on does not help either. Professor does not like to be contacted directly. If you have questions you need to reach out to his TA, which either takes 2-3 days to respond with a vague answer OR does not respond at all.

Listen to the other commenters. Do not take this class with Su. I took this course as an elective, biggest mistake of my life. I have not learned anything other than practicing my listening skills because his pre-recorded videos are hard to understand. ESL teacher.
