Reviews of professor Woo Lee

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
Woo lee isnt a bad guy, hes just a bad professor. He is self absorbed, mostly comparing the class to himself, such as saying that our bad test grade is an embarrassment because he would have done better. He does indeed use obscure examples to relate materials to the real world which can be useful, but they usually end up being about himself.

Dr. Lee is absolutely amazing. He is so thorough in his explanations of every detail. I look forward to his lectures every day. Definitely take his class if you are brand new to biology, you will learn so much. There is a textbook, but it is free to access. Be ready to read before going to class! He will make himself available if you need help.

I learned more about how to make pasta and immigration than Materials during lecture. Was told to buy the online textbook as it was going to be used heavily and turns out he tells us when the semester is almost done that the test material is not from the textbook at all. bruh

Woo Lee is undoubtedly the worst professor I have ever had. He has unbearable handwriting, unhelpful lectures/slides, and the worst attitude I've ever seen. He always rushes through examples and information and then spends 30 minutes talking about his travels and his hobbies and basically anything that does NOT have to do with Materials.

Here is a guy who knows what he is talking about, its just a shame that he cant teach. Lectures are dry at best, be prepared to learn more about him making pasta than material science. His tests are brutal and exact, no partial credit anywhere to be found so good luck. Its a shame this is a required class

The most unhelpful and condescending professor I have ever had. He manages to make every single question on his exams a trick question, and then accuses his students of cheating and insinuates they are dumb. A direct quote from an email he sent out "the results also suggest that I continue to overestimate students." Avoid at all costs.

Illegible handwriting, contradictory notes he doesn't bother to correct, told us to purchase book then told us that the stuff on the test is not in the book, test is entirely trick questions, more paper writing than actual materials science, spends class time bragging about his research accolades and topics, all tests taken online, homework  test

Hes my favorite professor at stevens. Hes funny, and is great at explaining materials science through real world examples, and he requires students to solve modern day problems with what we learn. A real gem. Also, he doesnt give a final exam, and tests are only worth 45 percent of the grade.
