Reviews of professor Feng Bao

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
Dr. Bao is a very kind person. You can tell he genuinely cares about trying to teach his students. However, as someone who passed AP Calculus, I feel that without taking calc in high school, I would struggle in this class. Definitely utilize office hours and your TA, and do a lot of practice problems if this is your first time taking calc.

Dr. Bao is a kind professor and knows his subject well. Tests are difficult and the majority come from the textbook. Some lectures were very easy to follow along with and some were a bit more difficult to understand. I recommend reading the textbook for all the chapters that he teaches as it will help out a lot. His accent does affect the lectures.

He was honestly a very good professor. Always asked for feedback on how he could make the lectures better for us and actually applied the feedback. He does have an accent but it is not hard to understand as he annunciates vey well. Quizzes are made by TAs but are exactly like the homework. Tests are like the quizzes and examples he gives in class.

The course content isn't that hard, but you're going to have to teach yourself. You get a quiz every week then towards the end of the semester it's two a week, but they're essentially homework questions and a lot are from a textbook that you can find the answers for. Occasionally he'll make his own questions and those are about impossible.

Dr. Bao was a great professor overall. He made math interesting which I can honestly say has never happened to me before. His tests were relatively easy but you definitely need a strong background in trigonometry and precalculus. Attendance was not required but if you miss class you wont do well unless you're good at learning from a textbook.

When Professor Bao lectures to us i feel warm inside, he's just so attractive. Some times is hard to focus.
