Reviews of professor Justin Chan

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Amazing math prof for sfu surrey. Clear and easy to read lecture notes. Always asks if people have any questions. Quizzes are fair in difficulty. Responds quickly to emails. Polite and easily approachable. One of very few profs I would personally love to have again in the future.

His notes are very good and will help you alot, he will answer every question you ask, but please do not ask him stupid/obvious questions that waste class time because his section would fall behind the others constantly. He marked the assignments very generously compared to other sections so free grade boost. Exam/quiz questions were based on textb

232 is a difficult course, but he did a good job teaching it. Passionate about the materials in lectures, and is available in long office hours to help out, usually at least 3 hours per week. Pacing of the course is very fast, but it's not the instructor's fault.

1. Don't talk (or even whisper) when he's speaking - he will call you out
2. 232 exams hardly had any conceptual problems, so make sure to grind the mechanical textbook problems
3. Justin is a nice guy and does not half-ass with marking and replying to emails
4. Marking seemed generous (at least for my section)
5. Dry but helpful lectures

Justin is a SUPER nice guy, but he definitely HATES when people are talking. He's open to student questions and going over any questions not understood. Teaches great and the midterm and final are not too bad. He gives extensions on assignments and is very friendly when asking for help.

Justin Chan was great for math 100! Didn't expect to do well considering I was below average in math in high-school but ended up with an A-, so don't be discouraged if you've previously had a hard time with math. He explains difficult concepts really well, 100% recommend taking any math courses with him.

He is good. He needs to update his practise exams because some of them are from 2007. He also has a tendency to add questions that he never covered in class so you can lose marks on those.

Was he good? Yes. Would I take a course with him again? Probably not

Dr. Chan was a good professor who was very responsive to questions and open to office hours. Quizzes and Exams are not hard if you prepare for them. He does have a tick with people talking in his lectures and will stop and call people out but its not that big of a deal and makes sense.

Although the lectures were confusing and his time management was not the best all the time, the lectures were interesting and fun to attend. He explains things to the most little detail and point.

He was a great prof at teaching. Does not let anyone talk while he teaches so if you chit chat not the class for you.
