Reviews of professor Alan Chu

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
The course was great, and Dr. Chu did a really good job! I believe this was a difficult course especially in four weeks during summer, but it was organized in a way where I knew what was due. I also Iove his comments on assignments and how personal he became in the intro video. He gave constructive feedback well and replied quickly to questions.

Dr. Chu gives thorough feedback on his grades and gives you all the tools you need to do well. As the class is a bit more advanced, you are expected to take some of the planning of work and readings into your own hands.

Inconsiderate of students and the fact that they have lives. Condescending. Teaches a lot of irrelevant material. He'll bring you candy every once in a while and say "I think I'm very nice."

I was so nervous about taking research methods, and my nerves only rose as coursework moved online, but Dr. Chu made a really smooth transition during these challenging times. He was very easy to correspond with and provided countless assignment examples, feedback, and support in order to help us succeed in the research project. He really cares!

Dr Chu is okay. He shows up to office hours late. Also he is very inconsiderate with students circumstances. I got into a car accident on my way to his class during a snow storm and he would not allow me to get credit for an assignment. Another consideration with this class is that it is an organizational nightmare. Too much content to manage.

Is a very tough grader but is good at following advice from students.
