Reviews of professor Jiuqing Cheng

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
I loved having professor Cheng. He is very clear on what he expects and if you don't do something right, he usually gives you a chance to fix it. The only thing I didn't like about this class was the fact that very few items are graded. I forgot to do a couple of the writing assignments and it dropped my grade a good amount.

This class is a lot of boring lecture. The tests were online and not super difficult. You have 2 short writing assignments due every week. These are easy if you come to class and listen. I found myself getting really distracted and bored every day because of how the class drags on. It was fine but I personally wouldn't take the class again.

I loved taking cognitive psychology with Professor Cheng! He cares about the content of the class but also cares about students' wellbeing. I added the class late but was able to catch up quickly because of the clear expectations and grading criteria. His lectures were enjoyable and the writing exercises helped me to fully understand the content.

I was told this course was difficult but Professor Cheng made it manageable. He was clear about his expectation. He was patient and willing to give feedback to improve my project. Highly recommend this professor.

One of the best professors I've had. He has clear grading criteria, and his tests are very well written. You'll either know it or not. He doesn't try to trick you. His class is very lecture heavy, but he really makes the material easy to understand, as well as throwing in some videos. He also really cares about his students. I highly recommend him!

I was scared to take Cognitive Psych because that is the part of psychology I am not good at, but he makes it so easy to understand. He gives you a study guide for what will be on the exams and he even let our class bring cheat sheets that were extremely helpful. He cares about his students and I would recommend him to anybody!
