100000% recommend taking Dr. Shi if you have the chance. Top two best teacher I have ever had. His lectures and course material are great, made learning a challenging subject very easy to comprehend. Pay attention and do all the material he assigns you will make an A. I will be taking my other finance classes with him (if available).

Han taught us not just finance, but hard work, patience, dedication and great attitudes. This class is a MBA class but he managed to make it very enjoyable. I would take him again.

Dr. Han Shi made this class very entertaining. If you work hard, you will be fine. He made his own lecture videos, his videos show how to use the calculator are very helpful.

Dr. Han Shi cares about each student and it means a lot when a professor wants his students to succeed in the class. This class is not easy, but it is fairly manageable if you work for it. I think some of comments are unfair considering how much efforts he puts in to help students. He does not give free credits and you need to earn them.

Must be willing to work hard. No finance class is easy regardless of teacher. Dr. Shi really cared about the students and wanted us to succeed. I never felt he was against us but he wanted us to learn and gave us all the opportunities. Take advantage of the extra credit!! Would take again.

Very nice guy with lots of patience to help students. His excel projects are very good. Attendance is not mandatory, but do not skip too many classes. I will definitely take him again.

Dr. Shi is one of the most amazing instructors within the LSUS MBA program. His dedication to teach is exceptional. He grades the papers generously and exams are hard. Even if you study the course content you still wont make it 100% until you truly understand the key leanings of each module. He provides lots of practice problems prior to the exams.

I very enjoyed Dr. Han Shi's International Finance class. His class is not only interesting but also very practical. His class is a neat combination of theories, case analysis, and practices.

This class and material was difficult but Dr. Shi is a good prof and good dude. He is always available to answer your questions, even answered emails on the weekend. The grading criteria is very clear. There were weekly quizzes, three exams, and a group project. If you study, do the extra credit and attend the weekly meetings, you'll be fine.

Offers extra credit on exams which is very helpful. Very accessible by email and by freq review sessions. Recommend having a good foundation before taking this course as this is expected and his explanations can be . Fast pace. Has strong accent so at times difficult to follow. Practice problems can be very tough but good tool for learning

Dr. Shi is a great professor for this class. Practice problems are harder than the actual exam, so you if you understand the practice problems you should do fine on exams. He respond to emails quickly. Everything for the class is very organized in moodle.

Professor Han is the best professor I have ever had at LSUS. A man that cares about his students on an academic and personal level. He strives to succeed and pushes students to do the same. His teaching style is by far the most advanced at LSUS, and other professors should take notes. If you get the chance to take Prof. Han, DO IT!

FIN 701 w/ Professor Shi is comprised of 3 exams, 6 quizzes, 1 group project, and 6 discussion posts. A significant amount of extra credit is given throughout the course. Dr. Shi is also very accessible throughout the week and he's an easy grader. I literally failed all exams and over half of the quizzes & still came out with an 86.

Dr. Han Shi is awesome. Very professional and cares about his students. If you have the chance I would highly recommend taking Dr. Shi.

Dr. Shi sincerely cares about each student. He made his own lecture videos and explained concepts and numerical questions clearly. He was always available outside the class even during the weekends and replied my emails very quickly. Three non-cumulative exams, weekly quizzes, Mylab finance, weekly home assignments and zoom meetings.

Class needs a textbook. Powerpoints were not helpful. Had to use outside sources or I would have failed. What was on the tests was not exactly what we studied. I felt the quizzes and exams were tricky on purpose. He does give tons of extra credit though so that is why I would take him again. W/out the EC, I would have failed though.

As a student without prior finance knowledge, I like the fact Dr. Shi provides lecture videos and weekly zoom sessions, which helps me a lot. His accessibility even during the weekends is superb and he replies my emails within a hour. This class is a great mix of theories, practices, and analytics with additional extra credits opportunities.

I like Dr. Han Shi's attention to details and continued efforts to help us with the course contents and our successes in this class. This class is not an easy one since it is an AP MBA class.

The class is very organized with practice problems, weekly quiz, practice exams, lecture videos and notes, and exam review sheets. Great explanations on the zoom sessions.

Glad I took this class with Dr. Shi. The material is tough. There are weekly quizzes and forum, one group project and three exams. Dr. Shi is always accessible and weekly zoom sessions help with any questions students have. He also provides opportunities for extra credit which are very helpful. Definitely recommend taking his class.

Han Shi is the best professor I have had so far in the program. He helped with an exam on a Saturday. The class is fair and he gives extra credit. The teacher provides a clear syllabus, weekly meetings to discuss Q&A and is timely if you need to email him questions. If you simply read the slides and do your best, you will succeed with a B min.

This class exceeds my expectations on managerial finance. I have gained a good foundation foundation on managerial finance over the past 7 weeks. Dr. Shi cares about students and response time on emails is great. I like the group project. It is very practical and the general feedback provided really helps me to be better prepare for exams.

The course material is very tough but Dr. Shi is very accessible through emails and hosts weekly zoom sessions. There are weekly quizzes and discussion posts, a group project, and 3 exams. Extra credit opportunities are available for exams which is helpful.

I very enjoy Dr. Shi's class. I was worried about the accessibility to the instructor since it is an on-line class. Not anymore, Dr. Shi has been very accessible and he replied my emails very quickly at night. Make sure to study the lecture notes and other materials for exams.

Dr. Shi is genuinely assisting us students as I learnt lots of valuable information regarding finance. He hosts weekly office hours and is readily available via email. I would recommend students to take his class.

Dr. Shi seems to be very interested in the student passing his class. Lots of material presented but he will help you through. Extra credit was invaluable to me. 11/10 would take again

FIN701 is no joke and not a walk over course. I would not recommend pairing it with another course as it is time consuming. It covers a lot of material but Dr. Shi helps you throughout it all and provides extra credit for all exams. He is very quick on responding to emails sent and even keep zoom session to help students with difficult questions.

Overall, I enjoyed my experience with this professor. I scored very good on each of exams without extra credits. I highly suggest to study his lecture notes and videos thoroughly. They helped me a lot to succeed on each exam. Do prepare to spend a lot of time digesting the materials. I also like the weekly zoom sessions and case analysis.

If you study his lecture notes, work on the problems, and follow his guidelines, you should be fine. He replies emails very quickly and provides extra credits. Overall, a great class.

Dr. Shi works very hard and expects you to as well. My only complaint is the amount of material you're expected to absorb. If you don't have a foundation in finance, you won't retain that much info. Dr. Shi is a very fair grader though, and offers multiple extra credit opportunities.

Great class with a great professor. Dr. Shi really wants students to succeed as his zoom sessions and emails indicate. His dedications to help students are remarkable. He does has high expectations on students and make sure you devote enough time to learn. This class is hard and also rewarding.

Dr. Shi is a great professor who truly wants his students to succeed. The course is quite intensive and requires a lot of hours per week; weekly quizzes, bi-weekly exams, weekly forum posts & responses, a group project, lots of lecture. However, if you put in the time, you will do extremely well. I put in a ton of work but got a 99%.

This class takes up a lot of your time, but overall fairly easy. Lots of reading- 2 chapters per week and homework in MyLab along with weekly quizzes (not proctored) and exams. He gives PowerPoints and lectures -has a thick accent, so beware but he clearly cares and wants his students to learn and pass. Held weekly zoom meetings for questions.

I dropped this class previously because I wasn't grasping the material. I'm glad the second time around I took Dr. Shi. He obviously cares so much about his students and is very helpful. He provides a ton of points and extra credit (which makes it easy to pass!). It takes work, but he definitely helps a ton!

Hands down hardest class I have ever taken. Extra credit allowed me to receive an A, even though my test average was a low C. You will work hard for a C test average if this type of math is not in your wheelhouse. Group project was graded easily. Thank goodness for extra credit.

Hardest class that I have ever taken. The EC made it easy to pass but the tests were much more complex than the powerpoint slides. I would remember the non mathematical questions from the quizzes as they often appear on tests and will help you out. It is alot of work but it is doable.

Dr. Shi makes every effort to teach students, go above and beyond. He was always professional and held multiple zoom sessions to make sure we understand the contents. He offers Slides with notes, live Zoom sessions, pre-recorded zoom sessions, practice exams, practice questions with answers provided mid-week. Very organized.

Dr. Shi was very knowledgeable. He makes himself available daily, this was one of my worries while starting the online class but the professor made it happen. I also like the connections between the course material and everyday life that I am able to apply the material into both professional and personal lives.

This course is difficult and quite extensive but Dr. Shi gave us substantial assistance to help us learn the material . He was very knowledgeable, organized, and great professor who truly wants his students to succeed. He provides a lot of extra credits but you have to follow instructions otherwise you get less credit.

He is one of my best instructors so far. When I had a question, he was quick to answer and clarify. Some advice, work out ALL the practice questions he gives you. I took his class last summer. Even after taking his class he was still quick to respond and help me with my future endeavors . He truly does care of about his students.

I am grade to take this class with Dr. Shi. He is very knowledgeable of the subject and provides tons of opportunities for students to succeed. With that being said, the class requires lots of works and studies. I did well on all exams without extra credits. I would say really focus on his lecture notes and two zoom sessions each week.

Dr. Shi is very accessible and answers my questions very quickly. His lecture notes, practice exams, practice problems and zoom sessions help me a lot as the one from non-business background. I very enjoy his teaching and course contents.

I almost dropped this course after the first week but I am glad I stuck with it. Dr. Shi's lectures really did help and he also provides extra resources for you weekly. He does care if you understand the course work and provides 2 live lectures weekly for the class to participate in. It is a grad level class so be prepared to work hard.

This is definitely one of hardest classes I even took with the MBA program but it is very educational. I very like extra credits opportunities and the case analysis, which are very practical. Dr. Shi 's helps and cares about our learning really make a huge difference. It is doable to make a A, but be ready to work for it.

Dr. Shi Han was always available to answer any class related questions, even in the weekends. He provided detailed explanations and wanted to make sure the subject was understood. Every week he made two zoom sessions with open questions . If you didn't succeed in his class, you shouldn't be enrolled in the program, period! Highly recommended !

Great class, no textbook, he provides lecture slides, one group project, but it is pretty easy if you paid attention to the previous modules. He really focuses on your success as a student. Do the extra credits, tests can be a little difficult. I would take him again. Don't fall behind on the reading, do the practice tests, you'll get a good grade

Dr. Shi was great, would recommend. He truly cares and makes himself available to help students. He truly wanted us to succeed but also made it known that I would have to work for it. Great class. I learned a lot from it.

I was very fortunate to get Han Shi as an instructor. I loved how Dr. Shi is very responsive outside of class and how much he cares about student success. Finance is such a difficult course and it is rare to find a professor who understands the struggle so I am glad Dr. Shi was kind.

Dr. Han is clearly knowledgeable and caring about students and works hard to ensure his students gain a solid footing in his courses. Finance is one of the hardest courses in the program. Dr. Shi has live zooms, responds back to you quichly when you reach out, and really cares if you are comprehending the material.

I liked the fact that Dr. Shi is Very direct and resourceful through the entire course. I liked the course notes and practice problems that were provided each week, the flexibility of the class and how the information was presented with examples, and the quick responses from Dr Shi. Definitely a 5 star class.

Dr. Shi is an amazing professor and he cares about his students doing well and comprehending the material.

I really enjoyed how organized this class was. It was very easy to follow which helped my learning. Dr. Shi is always available and wants to help his students succeed.

Great professor, great class.

Dr. Shi is very accessible for students even during the weekends. This class is hard but he manages to make it understandable for students, weekly zoom sessions, lecture videos, practice problems and practice exam questions are available. He gives lots of tools for students to succeed.

This class is extremely organized. Three exams, 5 discussion forums, one group project, and 6 self-assessments. No much writing assignments, all exams and self-assessments are from lecture notes. Professor cares a lot of students and wants us to succeed. It shows.

Dr. Shi is a bit hard to understand, so I would suggest turning on CC to his videos. With the size of the class, I was really impressed with his quick responses to my emails. The only thing I would do differently would be not doing the group project on my own. He tries to help w free-riders, but the quality of work was not the same from everyone.

With the extra credit opportunities throughout the course you will do well by completing ALL of your work. The key is to not skip out on opportunities to get extra credit and completing every smaller assignment. This professor did load down the portal with information, lectures, videos, and content that was a bit excessive. Focus on the priorities.

Professor Shi is great, the material is very tough/complex & he completely understands that! Provides, lectures, zoom sessions+helpful videos. Lots of formulas/reading, so be prepared to work. The professor offers a few extra credit opportunities, don't skip it will be helpful the further along you move in the course!

Homework is kinda difficult, but it is made to be easy to learn.

Professor Shi, is hands-down a great teacher! He has multiple zoom calls each week to go over the homework and answer any questions for the students. The class is tough, due to the material being covered, but with plenty of feedback and credit opportunities, an A is within reach of ANY student. I would take any class Dr. Shi taught.

Great instructor, cares about student sucess. Material is tough and he provides a TON of information. 3 tests (minimum 24% additional from Xtra credit ). Easy weekly discussion posts. Weekly self assessment quizzes that are open book. One group project that is relatively simple. If you are struggling with finance, TAKE THIS CLASS.

Very good instructor. Gave lots of supports to students, weekly zoom sessions and quick replies to my emails. He did everything for students to succeed in the class.

If you study and do every extra credit opportunity you should pass the class. The test are hard but the extra credit makes up for it. Dr. Shi cares and wants you to pass his class. I would recommend this class if you have a little bit of extra time to complete all the work and extra credit.

DO THE EXTRA CREDIT! It made all 3 of my exam grades A's and 2 were very VERY far from an A when the test was taken. Quizzes every week, bonus points if you complete all of them on time. Easy grader on the discussions. Group case study was a breeze with my group. Offers practice exams but no answers are given so you have to find the right solution

Dr. Shi was a great professor. There were hates about him on GroupMe from some students which I do not understand. He was always accessible and helpful. Extremely caring for all students. I think he was doing the most he can to help each of us.

MBA702 is a very heavy class regardless of who teaches (wkly quiz & forum, bi-wkly exam, 1 group project) and is probably the most difficult within the program. Shi puts in lot of effort into his class, doesn't simply make you read from outdated books. Makes himself available via 2 Zooms/wk. Responds quickly. Many opportunities to make an A.

Heavy class regardless of who teaches. Put in the work - easy A class. He gives you too many opportunities to not get an A. Held 2 Zoom sessions per week and responds quickly via email, even late at night. School's no return policy puts a constraint to review previous exams/quizzes with students which limits comprehension.

I know this is one of the hardest classes in the program, managerial finance. I have no prior finance background. One group project, two exams and a final and the final is 20% of the grade. Weekly discussions and self assessments. Three extra credit opportunities worth two-three letter grades on exam points. Lots of optional resources, self taught.

Dr. Shi definitely cares about his students and gives ample opportunity to receive a decent grade. Extra credit activities were given after each exam for a minimum of 20 points to be added to your exam grade. Dr. Shi is very accessible through email and zoom, he responds very fast. The group case analysis is tough if you have a bad group.

The class itself is difficult, but Han did a great job teaching, videos are a little long. But tons of extra credit opportunities that can jump you 2 letter grades at least if completed. BEST FINANCE TEACHER I HAVE HAD.

This is a tough class but there are a lot of extra credit opportunities. This is a writing heavy class which I was not expecting but there are weekly discussions, the group project is a paper, and the extra credit are also papers. I would recommend that you take MBA700 accounting before taking this class as the background knowledge really helps!

Super easy class and professor. He grades quickly and most of the answers for the test are on Chegg or Quizlet. The only thing that may be difficult is the small group project, its easy if you have a solid group.

I recommend taking MBA 700 before this class. It will de

Tough Course but there is plenty of room in the extra credit. He offers extra credit papers for each exam, this can boost your final course grade by TWO letter grades. The group case analysis is tough but its based on module 5. So study module 5 and you're good for the case analysis. Worth taking and worth putting in the time on the extra credit.

The professor is dedicated, offering ample extra credit and support through zoom calls and email. While the class is challenging, using resources like ChatGPT, Quizlet, and Unstuckstudy can make it manageable. Put in the work, and you'll likely walk away with a solid grade.

This class is hard; that is not Dr. Shi's fault, he really helps his students. I had only taken intro to accounting b4 this. The extra credit is amazing. Watch the lectures, take notes. Drill the math, use Quizlet, DBs are easy. Group project can be annoying but not hard. I work FT, this was my only class, took me 20+ hours a wk. Dr. Shi is great.

Do the extra credit and study and you will certainly pass!!

Overall had a positive experience. I only read the powerpoints each week. There was a discussion post (or group assignment) and self assessment (unproctored) each week. Seemed to be an easy grader for these. Every other week there was a proctored exam (covered two modules); plenty of extra credit opportunities available to supplement the exams.

Umm....the math itself isn't even difficult it's just that the self assessments and slides won't really prepare you for tests. Also, his wording on the tests can be interesting so it can easily throw you off. Good thing is that there are too many extra credit opportunities for you to not pass the class. The instructor is really nice though!

I found this class challenging as I am not a math person and have been out of school for a bit. I ended with an A. Extra credit helped a lot!!!
