Reviews of professor Yang-Seon Kim

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
She only lectures and has about 20 different hand outs that she believes helps but makes things far more confusing.  Cant understand her, talks too fast, Exams are formatted so weird, slides are equation vomit with no real explanation.  Save yourself... its too late for me.

Easy to a fault. Gives out grades like its candy. Too lenient with grades. Lectures are good. You can pass the class without ever showing up because she uploads everything onto BB. Gives out homework solutions the day before the HW is due, so what even is the point of HW? Tries to help us out a lot. You will not learn much with her, yet get an A.

Kim is always available and glad to help. Unfortunately, her lecture is very difficult to follow, but she seems shocked by that, thinks everything is easy. Basically reads the power points, but doesn't make connections between concepts for students. Plan to study the textbook on your own! Be prepared for changes to syllabus! Hard work!

Great person. Extra credit was offered. It was fine as long as you do your work. Everything is open note, open book.

Dr. Kim is a great choice for Heat Transfer. She's new, so there is room for improvement in her lectures and tests, but overall is great. She wants you to understand the material rather than force rote memorization. Participations matters, so be there and pay attention. Tests are not too difficult is you spend time studying. Take her if you can.

She did a nice job bringing Heat Transfer fully online for this semester. All lectures were video style with here writing out additional material on top of the powerpoints. However, the class felt too easy for those who actually try.

Spring 2024. Went through the slides pretty fast, but the homework didnt coincide with them too much anyways; the tests were like the homework tho, which was pretty nice. I didn't know my grade until the end of the semester. Random quizzes, show up to class. Called us the dumbest class she ever taught at one point, it was pretty funny. Curves grade

Makes very easy homework and tests are just the homework, don't learn much of anything.  Very nice though!

This year was her first year as an instructor and she was FANTASTIC! Uploaded lecture slides a day before class with some blanks so you can follow along and fill them in. Also does lots of in class examples along with the lecture. Tests are open note and she is very fair on the grading. She sure does know her stuff! 10/10 would recommend!
