Reviews of professor Jingyi Song

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
I took 3 classes in one semester with her (20th Cent, Basic Chinese and HIS Seminar) and haven't had a problem with her. She was a bit difficult to understand at times but always was willing to explain further/differently. She kept class lighthearted despite the workload and wants to see her students succeed. Overall, she's a great professor!

She is incredibly knowledgable and gives great feedback! She is a fair grader and gives good lecture notes. Make sure you show up to class and pay attention!

Loved, loved, loved Dr. Song! Her accent took some getting used to but she was such a helpful professor. She always answered peoples questions and gave solid feedback to us when we needed it would 100% take her again.

Professor Song assigned a lot of homework but it wasn't hard it was more tedious. Beware because if you do not submit before midnight, she will give you a zero even though it wasn't technically due yet. She is really particular with what she wanted out of your assignment and if you don't hit every point, she'll take points off.

Honestly she wasnt as bad as some reviews made her out to be. Sometimes she Is hard to understand. She would give you the two possible topics before the quiz so you knew what to study for. She also shortened our final from 8-10 pages to 5-8 and decided not to give us the final.

her expectations ridiculous , if you ask a question she wont answer. Just tell you that you should have read it in the book. She only tests by giving essays, my final is 3 short answer, at least one paragraph, and 2 full essays on the spot. As a special ed student I receive accommodations legally, something she is not happy about

Took her online course for 20th Century History and was stunned at how poorly she taught the class. Inconsistent grading combined with an absolutely unapproachable demeanor both through emails and in person made this class horrid despite covering interesting topics. Avoid this teacher at all costs if possible

Horrible professor. Do not take her class because you will not understand her accent, when you have a question she will tell you that you should have done the reading, and will grade you unfairly (Gave her an 8 page well written midterm and received a D). Multiple students I know had the same complaint and I would recommend you don't take her class
