Horrible teacher and does not know how to teach her claa. Very boring and do not take her class. Acts like her class is a RS 400 rather than RS 100.
Professor Lee is extremely helpful and intelligent. My writing definitely strengthened while I was her student. She gives great personal and academic advice. A student will learn a lot!
Doyoung grades extremely hard and she is not very helpful.
this is the worst teacher. she thinks she know everything. very opinionated and stubborn. stay away from her.
this woman is evil!!! steer clear of her at all cost. i am a major in the subject of which she teaches and i got an A in every class except for hers... i took upper divisions and got A's...but when i took her intro class, she killed us with work...
This woman is extremely hard!!! She want every students do a lot of writting and reading, she really not very helpful. Want to pass her? just drink water and tell your lie story! indeed your pass
I love this professor. While it is true that she assigns a lot of work, she explains it and helps you. If you want to learn and be proud of your A or B, take her. Put time, effort, and participate in her class. Get to know her and you'll be happy you did!
First of all, her name is Doyoung Lee and not the other way around. She's awesome, and if you do the work you'll pass. If you're lazy, then don't take her. But if you want to learn and write better, take her! Nice lady.
This woman has no heart. Do not take any classes that she teaches, unless you are a masochist.
did not enjoy the class one bit. i did every thing she asked for yet she still gave me the worst time.
not helpful at all, seems unsure for assignments . impossible for any student to recieve a c or higher on paper. you must agree with her views or be overlooked.
I think I put all of my effort trying to stay awake in her class. She's unsure about the assignments she gives to students because she doesn't collect half of them.
This class is HELL. She is so far of the wall that it is extremely hard to keep up with the crap she is trying to put into our brains. Do not take this class if you have a choice, trust me, you will regret it.
STAY AWAY! She is PURE EVIL! She told me once that my essay was great, but she felt that I was a rascist (far from the truth) so refused to pass me. Make any sense? I think not! STEER CLEAR!
Just do your work, turn them in, and go to class... if you don't understand ask her.. she'll gladly explain it.. she's not evil and far from it, she cares about her students.. and if your doing what you're suppose to she'll appreciate it.
I took her class one summer, and she is a pretty cool professor. She likes to share about different things. I enjoyed taking her class; however, she does give a lot of work.
Piece of Cake! Stop complaining about the work!
Mrs. Lee is a very cool teacher. She might seem hard at first but once you know her, she's not as bad as you think. Personally, I think she's a easy teacher. Very understanding and show you respect.
I'm still trying to figure out what the class was about. Does not like to be challenged by students, often rambles about her personal life. Unclear and not worth the time.
she teaches an english class yet she can barely speak english herself. her pronounciation is so bad. her accent just makes it worse. i cant understand a thing she's saying. dont take this teacher.
Really cool professor, enjoys sharing personal experiences. Gives work but it's nothing that can't be done in an hour or so. Gives you a different view of life. Really funny little lady.
She is soo easy. I agree that she rambles about her life a lot. Also likes to show off about her daughter studying law. Basically u just have to pretend u listen to her, agree with her ideas (even though u dont), and she'll like you. Her accent is a pain in the neck though. I got an A!
this is prof. lee's daughter who studies law. i wonder at the relationship between your grades and the ratings you have given. i would also like to point you to the disclaimer that YOU are responsible for what you write here.
please see the posting for the subject below.
took her class for summer & she likes to chase her students. Its almost the end of fall and she is still trying to threaten me to turn in some useless assignments. about her daughter, she does ramble too much about her. Sheesh The class is supposed to be about english not her daughter studying law
You really have to spend a lot of time in her class. Got to take 2hrs a day for it.Not easy at all! Most people got c in the class. If you have other choice don't take her. A lot or readings and writings for class. Better be prepared and still don't get a good grade there!!!!
assignments are the rubric by which grades are calculated. also, your responsibility as a SMART student is to filter out "rambling" and focus on the CONTENT of the lecture. that's what COLLEGE is about. i highly doubt that a question like "why is law student daughter so important" is on the test.
she is a horrible teacher she tells you so much yet nothing at all, her class was a waist of time and i would have been better of in any other class
She is a very moody person. She always give us too much HW(usually 70pages from the textbook every week and write papers)! She loves the students who agree with her opinions. And she really thinks that Koreans are the best.
Wierdoooooooo She changes her mind every second, she gives alot of work. very boring teacher. Talks with an accent.. talks about stupid stuff. IF you can avoid taking her class. I have had her for 2 different classes. She is BORING
the worst and weirdest teacher u will ever encounter. itz not the grading system that's bad but the teacher herself. if you don't believe me then take ur chance and see what happens.
She does not know alot about race. She gives useless assignments. You have to agree with her or get marked down. She talks about unrelated unmeaningful topics. I can't believe she is a professor. I agree, wierd! Avoid at all costs.
Prof. Lee is much more simple than you would think. She requires two things and two things alone from her students...involvement and respect. State your opinions in an educated manner do the assignments and be respectful in class are your golden...i got an A- and failed every test...not hard.
She knows what she's talking about and the only reason that people dislike her is because she doesn't take any ****. Be prepared to learn and work and you'll do great.
she's wierd. communication is a problem with her. her homeworks sucks n she never clear about what she wants man. its so frustrating. ive never had a teacher so bad. n her daughter, OMG! shes not the first person in the world doing law. the whole class is about her daughter. get a life.
if u want a challenge.... than take this teacher.. this was my hardest class i had to take and i put all my effort in this stupid class and it didnt even count for my gpa!!! u have to do everythiing her way and she keeps telling everyone that they are failing. as long as you do everything perpect... than your fine..
Alright, I was scared**** less that I was going to get a C ... but I got a A just do the work and get on her good side, she is very hard to understand and does jump around a lot but just hang in there and you'll do fine. If you can avoid taking her do so, if not just give it a lil effort and you'll be fine. Does give a lott work.
Not organized at all. Half of the time I think she doesn't even know what she's lecturing about. And then she talks about something that has nothing to do with the class for the whole class time. Waste of a semester, didn't learn anything. DO NOT TAKE HER CLASS especially if you are Asian/Korean, she gives you a hard time.
alot of work. very competitive in her teaching
she doesnt know how to teach!!!! she old fashioned
STAY AWAY FROM HER CLASSES!!! First of all, her classes are very boring. second, more than half the time you don't know what she's talking about. third, she is mad at the world! just because she doesn't make more money than a basketball player!!! funny character! STAY AWAY! I AM WARNING YOU!!!
WORST TEACHER I HAVE EVER HAD! She tells you what to do but then gives you a bad grade beacuse it's not what she wants. Her lectures are weird because what she talks about isn't even in the book 90% of the time. Everyone one is annoyed in that class.
i only have one thing to say. SHE SHOULD NOT BE A PROFESSOR!!!
No Comments
This remedial course seemed more like a higher level class! It was difficult to keep pace with her nonsense. She always changed subjects. She tells you to write a report, but doesnt say what to write it on.. very confusing lady. If you are religious, do not take this class, she persecutes you. In fact, dont take this class PERIOD.
Prof. Lee's class is hard, especially in summer. However if you take her class seriously, you will pass the class and in the end you'll learn alot from this lady. Her classroom environment is perfect, you get to know everybody in class well.
DO NOT TAKE HER CLASS!!! enough said.
Horrible professor, unfair grading, ****.
One of the worst teachers ever. DO NOT take her!! Does not let you go to the bathroom or chew gum. Think kindergarden bootcamp.Awful!!!!
Worse teacher they could pick to teach a class like this.... If you have other options I highly recomend you take another class, but if you are stuck with her, Im sorry..... she is defenitely the worse teachers at CSUN
One of the best professors i've had. She's not easy and attendance is a must. She's insightful and very smart, I learned alot from her. Though shes NOT an easy A.
Great Professor! She's very helpful and a good teacher. As long as you go to her class, see her in her office sometimes, and make sure you show her you are a good studnet and care about the class, she'll give you a good grade. I got an A, but I worked for it. I did everything she said, and amde sure I cared about learning, NOT sleeping!
This Professor is crazy and very hard to understand. It's not a Journalism class but you will write write and write- so if you don't like writing I wouldn't advice taking her. She also makes you take a pic of yourself to give to her and she KEEPS it weirdo!! Stay away- will u learn much probably not... If you view it her way then it's the highway.
I hate to be mean but she is pretty much useless. As a person I have nothing against her, but as a teacher, you really have no idea what's going on in her head. Two 6 page essays due the same day based on the SAME movie. It was weird. I cannot explain how the hell I ended up with an A.
A very great teacher. She really cares not just about the class as a class but as people. She encouraged everyone to share their problems & to listen to other's problems. She believed that a "classy" student is one who is responsible & caring and that what she encouraged us to be. She's strict but she teaches well. I love her!
VERY EASY! But she doesnt know how to keep track. She seriously went from talking about Oprah to Rome, Jesus, Africa, and then how her daughters take out brown water for the plants. I was so confused. And how she plays the devils advocate SUCKS! OFF THE FREAKING TOPIC! And its like you HAVE to be there for she drops you after 3 absences.
Very passionate about teaching. Gave us easy take home tests, and occasional half-page to a page papers. DO THE READING. Group project is another major assignment. Final was an essay, so once again DO THE READING
She judges students based on how INTO the class they are. She wants the student to interact and participate as much as possible. If you are not the type of student who likes sharing things about yourself and writing self-reflection papers then DONT TAKE THIS CLASS!She focuses more on self development rather than the actual content of the class:/
This was by far the worse class I have ever taken. She was not clear with her assignments. There was way too much work for a 100 level class. Lots of take home quizzes, tons of short essay papers, a group project, and a final. Be prepared for homework just about every night.
I found this class to be interesting and educational. If you do the reading, participate in class dicussions, and go to her office hours if you need help, you will get a good grade. You get to watch good movies and have great discussions about current events.
Shes CRAZY!! This woman made us write an essay on a chicken and its importance. She also has the idea that shes always right and that one has to "love one's self to succeed." She is totally looney. She always gives HW but its rather easy, so much that most of the students don't even bother doing it. She always expects the class to discuss.
Worst teacher I ever had!! She makes no sense and I learned nothing.
sweet lady BUT evil and horrible teacher. does not teach, makes students present each chapter. such a hypocrite of a korean. tells stories instead of lecturing. i rather listen to lectures than her speak of herself anyday.
She is absolutely horrible! It's an online class where you don't get the benefit of talking to the teacher and asking questions in person. And yet she ignores e-mails, doesn't respond to questions, gives very unclear and convoluted instructions for assignments, and writes in horrible English which makes it very hard to understand her expectations.
She is one of the worst professors I have ever had. Has very definite opinions. If you don't share her opinions then you are in trouble. Tends to favor certain students. Forgets to stop for breaks during class (the class was 2 hours) and her lessons were hard to follow. Don't take her if you want to learn something.
She is the worst teacher I have ever taken a class with, hands down. Disorganized, provided a syllabus with a number of mistakes which also didn't account for the final exam, was unresponsive and hard to reach via e-mail which was the only means of communication in this online class. Poor English makes her assignments hard to understand. Just bad.
She is a very difficult professor. This class was an online class. I do not recommend it to anyone. You have no clue as to where you stand in the class. By the time you found out, it was too late to withdraw without a grade. This class brought on the stress of 5 classes put together. You will go crazy. Expect to barely pass.
DO THE HOMEWORK!!!Speak up in class.Do these two things you'll be fine.She challenges her students but she is NOT a horrible teacher. You have to try and make the effort.She will notice and you will get a better grade for it.Pay attention or at least seem like you are and you'll be good to go.Ask questions if something is unclear she has an accent.
If you're laxy dumb, you can't make it in this class. She is an amazing and dedicated teacher and I never learned so much.
I am neither lazy nor stupid. This prof teaches based on her on prejudice; which is both frustrating and unfair. If you have another option then take it. If you are female and korean, you will do just fine.
She is Very Helpful and truly cares about the students. As long as you participate, give your opinion and Do every assignment you should get an A. She doesn't give much HW only oral presentations. If you know how to talk you should be fine :)
This is the worst professor I have had yet. Does not teach at all and is highly prejudiced. She rips off any ones heads who do not share her same opinion. I have learned absolutely nothing.
Was my lowest grade in college (B).... if you want help learning how to write, DONT take her for Freshman comp. The class is not hard and she is sweet but I needed to learn from that class.. I regret letting my advisor pick her for me
Not a difficult class. However, there were a fair number of students who failed. You must get on her good side, otherwise expect nothing higher than a B. The downfall of her course is that there is little to no effort exerted by students, so a vast majority of the information is broken down into secondary school level work. Try harder, CSUNians!
She LOVES to pick on people. I was picked on on every class meeting. She grades hard and nothing ever seems to be good enough for her. She knows her stuff but tends to go off track about her life story. She's firm to her beliefs and good with words so arguing with her does no good. Extremely unclear. I hated going to her class.
Her lectures vary from interesting to boring and back in the blink of an eye. She in rambling and it is difficult to take notes in class. The best parts of the class are the textbooks
I was VERY hesitant to sign up for this class because of the DRAMATIC and negative comments towards Prof. Lee. I do not regret signing up for this class because it challenged me to think intellectually. Too many students here complain that she's not a great prof...hello? You're in college! You probably didn't work hard to pass her class. Grow up.
Nice person but not that grand of a professor. Moves speech due dates around with last notice. I did great on the speeches and all but still got a B. Have to participate in class.
I LOVE THIS PROFESSOR! Attendance and participation is a must! She is very kind and you can tell she's obviously intelligent. Various outlines, 1 midterm, final,2 papers (one short research), one extra credit assignment.
Very nice woman but was very unclear. had 2 research papers, one being the midterm, and a reflection paper. Those and 1 presentation made up your grade. 10 quizzes on syllabus that were never given. Final was never taken, she said last minute there wasn't going to be one. I never knew what my grade was till the end of the semester.
This professor is the WORST OF THEM ALL she does not teach anything she grades really hard and you will not get an A unless she likes u and u agree with ALL of her opinions which is never the case since people who have taken the 300 level class didnt even get a A. If you enjoy hearing stories about her kids this is the class for u if not BEWARE!!
PROS: Nice lady, will help you a lot if you go to her office hours, gives a lot of time for essays (multiple drafts), really wants to see your best effort. CONS: hard grader, sometimes unclear about what she wants.
She is really terrible. Plz do not take her class..
I didn't listen to the reviews on ratemyprofessor.com. I took her class. I REGRET IT. I excel in my academics with a 3.75 GPA yet i got a B- in her class. I strongly suggest you consider another professor. She often goes on tangents. It is VERY unclear what she wants from assignments. Its a struggle to figure out how to succeed in her class.
She is a very interesting and wise teacher in my opinion. She tends to go off subject and talk about her life which I find interesting lol. The only thing I did not like is that she is a HARD grader & is not clear on what she wants until after she grades you.. she made the class redo papers more than once but overall I think she was a nice teacher
First day, she seemed like an easy going, fun professor, but after the second week I had enough. She goes off subject a lot and doesn't follow her syllabus. Class lectures are irrelevant to the tests and quizzes. She makes you redo your papers and is a hard grader. By the far the most confusing professor I've had. Recommend different professor.
If anyone tells you that she is bad, don't listen. She is an amazing teacher. You do have to go to class, do the work, and participate. She goes off topic but in a good way, I loved when she did, she teaches you real life lessons with interesting stories. Its like a regular class, do the work and you'll be fine. I did the bare minimum and got a B-.
The sweetest lady in all the lands, and a very wise and professional professor. Those that did not do well in her class are just slackers! There is hardly any work, the only work required is attendance and it is basically auto pass. Plus, you will learn a lot about life as well. She is good at giving life lessons too!
She has some interesting stories that can be interesting. But she is nitpicky, confusing about assignments and due dates. Only take her if you are willing to do a lot of extra work on your own.
Fair class overall. You choose a section of the book to present and make outlines for the class, and then you get to use those outlines for the midterm and final (cold-prompt essays). Prof. Lee was OK, would go off-topic sometimes but was very nice and would give good life lessons and show interesting videos and documentaries.
Professor failed to follow syllabus and due dates were really confusing. If you are lazy, avoid taking this class. She is a very hard grader. Several reading assignments a week with outlines due throughout the semester.
Great professor! Idk why students don't like her. She is knowledgeable and compassionate towards her students. A lot of work in this class so make sure you are on top of it. Not hard work but manage your time. At times not clear on what she wants and gets the class confused. Overall, I would take her again if I could.
Do NOT take this course with this Professor. She gives you work not pertaining to the subject. She will talk about life, and her personal stories every single day (TRUST ME). Then the next day she will unexpectedly give you a paper. For my midterm she talked for 30 minutes about herself giving me less time on my essay question. I tried and lost.
She is a hard grader, she goes off topic ALL THE TIME, and she is unclear of how to explain what she wants which results in a confused class. She also picks on certain people if she feels you aren't paying attention. If you are a lazy student who don't like work don't take the class!
She is the worst professor I have ever had. She is not clear about anything, she makes tons of mistakes and she doesn't want to help you whatsoever. People told me not to take her and I didn't listen and I really wished I had. DO NOT TAKE HER.
She's a very difficult teacher in terms of grading and during lecture. I had her for her Friday class and I don't regret the class because I met some great people. Other than that, you need to know the material inside and out. Study well because she doesn't prepare you well for the midterm and final.
She goes off of topic pretty much most of the class. But, she is still one of my favorite professors. All you need to do within the class is do all the work and visit the writing labs to continuously improve your papers. She's extremely easy, you just need to put in time and effort to continue improving to get a better grade.
Profesor Lee is a nice lady , but she definetly gets off topic ALL the time! She is very unclear on what she wants, she is extremely confusing, and She changes Her mind a lot. I honestly don't recommend her to anyone because she is a extremely difficult grader and no one knows what she wants.
I wouldn't really recommend taking her. She is super duper picky about her grading. I got a D on her midterm even though I had good information (btw it was opened notes). It was like.. if it's not exactly what she was looking for then too bad. She's intimidating, but gets sweeter after time. 2 Exams, 2 Papers. Tbh, don't take her.
worst professor ever dont take her goes off topic all the time
Her class was okay. I just disliked how she gave lots of book work for homework and count it as a quiz. She gave lectures but would often go off topic about her life stories, news etc. She expects one to write essays like a grad student. She is not clear with directions for some assignments, my SI leader helped my class more than Professor Lee.
Honestly, not worth it. Do not take her if it's possible. Her grading is really unclear. I went to her office hours to ask about my grade and she told me she doesn't know my grade but i shouldn't worry too much. Lectures are long and off topic. Don't even think about skipping class because you'll fail after 3 absence.
Gives you so much work in one week than all your classes of the semester combined. She doesn't communicate with her students well either. If you needed help, she would ask the students to answer it for you rather than her clarifying her assignments.
I took AAS 100 last Fall 2014 with the hope that it will be worth it. It wasn't. She was so unclear about so many things and there was even an instance when she told us what she wanted in our paper ON THE DAY IT WAS DUE. She also throws occasionally insensitive comments out there, so watch out. Did I learn? Yes, but not from her.
This class covers topics in detail and the professor is very helpful and knowledgeable. Participate, get involved, DO THE WORK and you'll do well in the class. Professor is very understanding of students. This is a 400 level class, you're expected to perform at a high standard. She gives good feedback too. Just dedicate yourself and you'll be fine
online, met about 3 times throughout the semester! You must attend and be there the whole class time or she will mark you down. The book i highly used in the course, all your assignments are assigned from the book. Was not clear with instructions! groups were horrible, new groups each week; which she assigned. final and midterm paper. HOMEWORK.
I dont like history classes, but I did like that she is very understanding and passionate for what she lectures. Students who take this course think that you need to know a lot about AAS, but this is a beginners course, which she does remind us multiple times throughout the semester that she does not expect us to be experts on the subject.
The worst professor Ive ever had. She isnt clear on her outlines she wants certain material on the outlines but gives you such a broad topic. At office hours she will give you a lecture of what you're doing wrong but will not tell you how to better your work. And she's off topic 90 percent of the time. She also treats you like grade school students
Simple. Do not take her. She never replies to emails, she's very snappy in group chat if you ask a question. She also gives low grades on assignments and it is a requirement to watch movies in the library (even though it's an online class). She grades work late and gives a ton of work and it's only a 100 class. Everyone in my class failed.
Don't do it. Just don't... So much reading. She goes off topic. Not clear about anything. Doesn't remember due dates. The midterm and Final are essay exams. She's late to office hours. The subject is interesting but her class is "No Bueno"
Professor Lee stated from the first class that she is a strict professor. However, sometimes she is unclear with what she expects. Her discussions were interesting (although sometimes irrelevant from the topic, but the time go by faster). Her class is easy to pass if you do the work and ask questions when her instructions aren't clear.
This professor only lectures about why students should be good people and be classy. Come time for our midterm, everyone asked what the test was going to be on because no material was covered or understandable in class. There wasn't even enough time to take her midterm because she talked the majority of the time about her day. Never again.
I can't express how much I disliked her and this entire course. This course should have been driven through discussion and opions, but seems too only care about her opinions. She give too much work and grades way too harshly. If you miss one small thing on notes alone you will fail that assignment. Do yourself a favor and avoid her at all cost
Terrible. She's confusing and not clear about what she wants. She will change her mind every five seconds. Takes forever to grade homework and papers. Everything that she says is "right" so you better agree with her.
Take this class if you're genuinely passionate about Asian American history. A lot of the people that didn't like her, weren't really interested in the content. She's very vague when it comes to assignments. There's a midterm, a final, and some outside work. But as long as you put that you deserve an A on the self evaluations, you'll get an A.
The class was not useful at all. The most important thing is that this professor is fake and do not respect the students. Don't take her class.
Teacher was inconsistent about due dates, which is a struggle with such a difficult, essay heavy class. We had three big projects due in one day. A lot of group essays which suck. Be prepared to pull a lot of all nighters. Will hurt your GPA, but the class is very interesting and she's nice about extra credit, second chances and personal struggles.
Do Not take this professor. She is not specific on anything. She is NOT organized at all which causes you to be confused most of the time. She is a tough grader and only wants you to believe what she believes. Thanks to her bad organization skills, I now have four assignments due in one week as finals are approaching. Do Not take her.
She sometimes lectures but she likes to rant about today's politics most of the time. Her rubric and instructions for getting an A during an Exam is very unclear since everyone in the class followed them and no one got anything above a B-. Coming from a Computer Science Student who gets A's and B's this is the first grade below B- that I'm getting.
She opens your eyes to Asian American women issues, but make sure to do your outlines asap! There is few hw and barely any quizzes, so try to work hard on them. Midterm and final were essays, she's a tough grader but you just need to understand and write in her pov. Visit her during office hours and sit in different parts of the classroom, trust me
Do not take any class this woman teaches. All she does constantly is rant and talk about her life. She makes students read a course reader she created and do outline off it, but she doesn't even cover them in class, or outright lies about the info. Sher grading for everything makes no sense, and what she wants from you isn't any better.
Professor Lee rants in class about her life. When she does talk about the course reading, she summarizes it (sometimes inaccurately), makes broad claims about it, and introduces irrelevant ideas. She expects students to agree with her. For grades, she tells students what her criteria is and says that she grades according to it, but doesnt do so.
Avoid at all costs. The syllabus is bad and doesn't explain homework, and the links don't work. She talks about nothing that has to do with the mid term essay during class, she rants about her life. She does not tell you if you have homework and you only get 2 or 3 homework assignments missing from the syllabus. Wouldn't reccomend to anyone.
Professor lee is really good and she has a sense of humor lol and she talks a lot about her life experiences which helps us to understand better to this classher assignment is not difficult if u put your effort into it
This class is lecture-based. She always goes on talking about her personal stories and how each student she be classy. Yes the problem has many problems and not everyone will be "classy," but people shouldn't be judged if we truly not do not know their story. She goes off the book, so it is required to read. Many outlines, one midterm and final.
AVOID HER ONLINE CLASS AT ANY COST. SHE ASSIGNS SO MUCH PAPER, AND THE QUESTIONS ARE SO WORDY! TAKING HER ONLINE CLASS IS LIKE WRITING 5 PAGE RESEARCH PAPER EVERY WEEK.
Terrible
THIS IS FOR GWS 100 Try to avoid this professor! If you know you are lazy, don't take this class. Also, she's very unclear, so always pay attention. Do all the assignments and you'll pass, midterm and final is an essay. She's tough grader, so everything exactly the way she wants. If you're struggling, she will help pass some way. Good luck!
Her class was tough. Her lectures are very hard to follow because its never about just one topic. She tells a lot of personal stories so most of the class time is spent like that and the last few minutes are about the actual work. You NEED to show up to every class or you will be behind. I struggled a lot but she helped me pass. She's a good person
I have never met a worse professor. We spent the majority of class listening to her life story and she LOVES to pick on people like a middle school bully. She didnt know that Africans came to America as slaves, not immigrants and does not have the decency to be respectful to other opinions (besides hers). I wouldnt wish this class upon anyone.
As an Engineering Student, I took this course just for General Education Requirements. This class is NOT hard, but you are required to put work into it. How much work? Honestly not lot, 2-3 hours a week. I would stay after class to make a short conversations with her to sweeten up to her. That's how I got my A and I thought this class was useless.
I'm currently taking her AAS 151 and we're halfway through the semester. All we've done so far is ONE speech. Usually all we do is listen to her talk about her life. She is very strong in her beliefs and wants us to think the way she does. She thinks that if we dont agree with her, There is something wrong with us. DONT take any of her classes!!!
She's not a bad professor, it's just at times she's not very clear on the assignments and I feel as though she could cut us some slack as most of us are terrified of public speaking. She does try to make us feel at ease but her strict rubric makes it even more nerve-wracking. Not a lot of work to do, 3 speeches, few lab reports, and readings.
Professor cares about the material but assignments and homework are confusing at times. She doesn't really specify things and I didn't know my grade throughout the semester. Found the class really interesting but moderately difficult because she grades on outlines and other small assignments. She takes attendance and participation matters.
She was very passionate and always urged us to be vocal and confident. Attendance is mandatory; expects students to be on time and ready for all class sessions. One novel was required, which was a bit difficult to enjoy. Only 3 speeches in the class, two of which were group speeches. Highly suggest participating, she appreciates that.
Although she is a nice and caring professor, she is unclear on certain assignments and is picky as well on how outlines are down. Other than that I liked the material that was taught even though she was all over the place when lecturing.
A living meme. She rambles about her life, roasts students in class, and barely talks about the class content. You'll have no idea what the tests are about or what your grade is, because she's very old school and doesn't do online. I went to her office and got her to like me, which saved my grade. She's an interesting lady, good luck!
If you want to learn about public speaking or want to become a stronger speaker DO NOT take this class with this professor. Her "lectures" are not about public speaking at all, rather they are her going off on a tangent about her life problems or complaining about modern culture. She picks favorites and grades on bias opinion. Worst professor ever.
Do not take this course no matter how much u need the credit! She could be sweet but definitely much more rude to students. She absolutely hates if u use your phone in class and doesnt let u go the bathroom. Also she is so unorganized and so unclear about what is expected from assignments. You basically rely on your syllabus for more specificity.
A COVID REVIEW This professor is the worst professor I have ever had do not take this class if you want to actually learn. Rude to the students and doesn't care about LGBTQ+ rights. She does not care about your current situation during COVID she expects everyone to have their camera on when she doesn't even have her own camera on. She's ignorant.
Strict grader. Messy canvas and messy lecture. Most of the group speeches and lectures in class have nothing to do with Asian American Studies. Rude to students too.
She is strict and holds students accountable for things out of their control. For online classes, you must attend or you miss out on points, cameras are expected to be on. She calls on people & can be rude at times if you're confused. Classes are off-topic and mixed w/ history lectures not much is based on Speech or AAS. 2 group and 1 ind. speech.
Besides her being a bit caring she is very strict and there were many problems in class with her and students. She expected students to have cameras on when hers wasn't, she became more lenient about it later in the semester. Very disorganized but she was able to negotiate on assignment dates. She was rude at times and wasn't understanding
Don't take this class if you actually want to learn speech. This class is basically a philosophy class with random speeches thrown in. Her assignments are unclear in what she's actually looking for and she never replies to emails. If you happen to have her for an online class, her loud laptop fan is pretty unbearable to listen to for 3 hours.
I am not one to comment, but I must. While she can be nice at times, she is not always understanding. This course was disorganized and assignments were usually unclear. If you ask her to repeat a question, she will get mad. She also makes mean comments to students in the class. I highly suggest a different GWS professor.
literally the most unorganized professor ive ever had. She is SO unclear about due dates and I honestly cant remember one thing I learned that I didnt already know in her class. She also forces us to turn our cameras on but never does herself.
DO NOT TAKE HER she is rude, unclear, messy. Her computer sound is horrendous and she never answers emails or in class questions. Very irresponsible ad does not grade accordingly.
Professor Lee's course is very interesting however she is really unorganized with assignments and group projects. She is a tough grader so don't expect do get a good grade even if the assignments are easy. My advice for those with no choice, go to office hours to talk about your grades, she likes when the students show that they want a good grade.
Wouldnt recommend taking his class because he makes the class very confusing & enervating. Literally hell go off topic SO MANY TIMES like were learning about statistics NOT politics. He will bring in many controversial topics such as Trump with the election, BLM, religion, etc. I would get sidetracked so many times. Hes VERY sarcastic. BEWARE..
I took her class the first day and dropped out of it the same day. She was very aggressive how she addressed students and expects you to know the answer before she asks the question. She expects her students to be mind readers and told my class that we aren't allowed to email her and could only contact her through office hrs. PLS FIND A DIFF PROF!!
Listen, I'm not mad at her, she had her moments where she was nice and helpful for some of us but most of the time she would hardly ever give explanations for the assignment and group work that we did. She never gave us any feedback either when it came to our assignments so a lot of us never understood why we got the grade we did. good luck man
She forces you to have your camera on while not having hers on. Flamed students with a trash mic and camera. Pushes her beliefs and values onto you. If you want to have the worst experience of your life. I recommend you to take this class.
Please... do not take this class. take a different women's studies class. This class might be one of the most annoying classes I've ever taken. Very disorganized... very little communication with students... will change groups mid-semester without even warning you or letting you know. It's hard enough you have to work with other people online.
TLDR: This professor sucks and you shouldn't take them. We do use the course reader in this class but it requires a lot of time to stay on track with it. THE MAIN PROBLEM with this class is the amount of group work she assigns. In an asynchronous class group work doesn't go well at all. She also has office hours 30 min a week so don't expect help.
Honestly speaking, I have no idea what the problem is with her, but shes not necessarily a vicious professor but still half of the time she can be highly unorganized and I just hate it when she forces the student to have their videos on when she herself doesnt have it on. Not really that hard of a class, but just try your absolute best I guess.
WORST TEACHER EVER. DISORGANIZED. NOT CLEAR ON INSTRUCTIONS. For someone who does notinstruct that well she grades very harshly. Not a mean person but if you like to stay organized and want a quality professor i would stay away!!!! not worth the stress.
Easily one of the worst professors ive ever had in my academic career. She is very unorganized and does not give clear instructions about her assignment, yet she is an extremely critical grader. Its been 13 weeks and I still haven't learned a single thing yet. Oh and if you email her on Mon she might reply by Fri. Please do not take her class
AVOID AT ALL COSTS!!! This is the worst professor I've ever had. She grades extremely harshly. She takes forever to respond to emails. Half the class was group work, and my grade has suffered because of who she put me with. There is barely enough work left for me to bring my grade back up. She doesn't believe in extra credit or extensions.
Completely HORRIBLE TEACHER AVOID AT ALL COST. Her grading is complete S#!5, you have to put how much work you did (if you're in a group) and if you forget, that's on you, even if you did the majority. She has that as her "life lesson". As much as I want to type all the BS she has done, there's a character limit. BUT PLEASE AVOID THIS TEACHER PLZ.
Just do your work and you should be fine. She gives points for turning your camera on. There will be group work, I recommend doing it yourself separately in the case someone doesnt do their part.
