Reviews of professor Tien Lee

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Prof. Lee' s class is quite amazing. He organizes his material into several modules towards an end-of-term portfolio. The workload can be a bit heavy but if you keep it up with the modules it is actually a breeze. At the end of the term, it is quite amazing how much I have accomplished. I would recommend his class to every accounting student!

Professor Tien was one of the best professors I've had in SFSU. Not only is he a great professor he's also a great person. He's so caring and respectful, with many real life experiences. He makes me want to learn and do better in school. He is a must take class, out of the many bad professors in SFSU he is a gem and a rare find!

I was frustrated in his class the whole time. No feedback, confusing grading criteria, confusing instructions on homework and group project assignments. He grades everything late, and he will not reply to your emails. And one more thing - everyone fails the final exam (cumulative by the way), so he curves it. DO NOT recommend!

Tien Lee was by far my favorite professor. I took two of his classes and wish he had taught more so I could continue learning from him. He inspired me to be an auditor and to pursue IT Audit after graduating. He genuinely cares about his student and enjoys his job. Take as many of his classes as you can.

Doesn't provide proper guidelines, doesn't give feedback on assignments, and group projects are all over the place.

I took this class over summer. Basically class was based on a group project, a final exam, and homework and participation. He doesn't elaborate a lot on the project if you have questions but if you follow the criteria of what he asks you'll be fine. He is a pretty lenient grader. He allocates an hour each class for group work

ACCT101 over the winter. Never online. Never taught properly, never responds to emails, didn't show up to class for two weeks, system errors with homework, it was just a nightmare. I don't see 101 as a course option here, so maybe it was his first time teaching the class, but it sucked and i dont suggest it unless someone else took it later

Thumbs up if you know WWAD! I graduated a year ago and if you'd ask me what I remembered most from my accounting classes, I'd say it's Prof. Lee's "What Would Accountants Do?" His lecture is really amazing and inspiring and I still think about his class and look at the notes from time to time. His lecture is like Colbert's monologues!
