she speaks haltering english

I think people are too lazy. I am not an econ major, I dont study for her tests, and I still have an A in the class. Her accent is thick, but I've had worse at salisbury

Nice lady who knows her stuff. Do not be fooled by her accent, she knows what is going on in her class. She knows if you are there and if you pay attention. Quizzes are easy, test are hard but not impossible. Print the power points from the K drive. Show up for class and don’t screw around she

I thought she was hard at first. But i firgured out that she puts study guides in the library that have practice quizes and they help A LOT. So do that and you'll be fine. Her accent isn't that bad and she's funny. So just come to class and study and you'll live.

Not that hard to understand at all. All you have to do is go to class and you'll pass bc she explains everything so well in class. She even puts study guides for the exams on the K: drive and goes over the 4 hw assignments in class b4 u hand them in. Definitely recommend her!

Yao's class is real easy to get an A if you just study the powerpoints. You don't have to go to classes either, but she gets pissed if u continue to miss. She talks pretty funny and pronounces try "TWHY", method "METHURD", and she always yells out RRRRRIIIIIIGGGGGHHHHHHTTTTT!

Dr Yao does speak English as well as any other prof. She may have an accent but if you go to class, study the powerpoint and reserve notes, you will do fine. She is very helpful. Go to her office if you need help. She speaks and writes English and Chinese... how many languages do YOU speak fluently??

I really liked her. She's sooooo nice and she really genuinely tries to help you learn. She moves at the pace of the entire class. As long as you pay attention in class and understand you don't need to study that much for tests. She has 3 tests (including the final) and 4 quizzes. Heavy accent, but i understood her. Lectures on powerpoint.

Best Econs Teacher and has one of the best teaching techniques on campus. She will help you anyway she can if only you are interested. She is very clear.Explains the subject in way that you will understand. I mean i went into the class and started out clueless but now i feel i have an understanding of the subject. GREAT TEACHER and the BEST.

She is the best.One thing i loved about her class was that she moved at the pace of the class. she is very clear and explains stuff using examples relevant to college students so we remember.I remember she explaing one topic with the G.P.A System..now who wouldn't remember that? Plus if you do the home work, you will do well on her tests.

The nicest woman you'll ever meet! Very helpful and really wants you to learn and do well. Homework, quizzes and tests are all just about the exact same questions. Take her!

she is a very good teacher. gives great examples and makes sure the class understands before she moves on. sometimes she is hard to understand but she clasrifies well. all powerpoint presentations that is available to students, so its easy to follow along.

Great professor in general. Course was a little hard, but I attribute that to myself. Definitely keep track of the lecture by printing the Power points as most of the exam / quizzes come directly from that material.

She is a pretty decent professor. Sometimes she is hard to understand but for the most part you can figure out what she is trying to say. She is pretty funny but she gets off topic alot. Alot of the time, I had trouble paying attention because she would just ramble about whatever she wanted to. overall shes pretty good though.

Im not an econ major but i find her easy if i every have a question i can go to her and she will help me understand it she is always in her office her accent is not hard to understand at all and relates stuff to the real world and is funny and keeps this subject intresting!

I was really dreading econ but she explained everything really well. she went slow and walked you through examples. if you kept up with the notes and looked over them before tests you'd do fine. she can be a little ditzy but its more funny than anything else. as long as you pay attention in class and take notes youre set just dont forget to do apli

She is not to difficult to understand. She loves Labor economics so she really gets enthuasistic. Shes willing to help you so go to her office hours. Subject is not to difficult to understand.

She was a great teacher! Very high energy and makes a boring subject interesting

Very nice, very willing to help students if asked. Doesn't always speak coherently, but is understandable for the most part. Not too difficult, as long as you remember the Aplia assignments.

Not a bad professor, has a thick accent but not to the point you don't know what shes saying. She really wants to see you succeed and is a pretty good professor. I would probably take her again.

Although she has an accent, she is a wonderful teacher. Requires work and studying outside of class. She provides opportunities for extra credit, but most points come from 3 exams and weekly online homeworks. Very friendly and wants all of her students to do well!

She has a thick Chinese accent but completely proficient in English. Really knows material, wants students to learn and participate. She will like you if you participate regularly. Test questions are straightforward and mirror class examples. Regular homework online. Gives extra credit often and there's a small attendance grade.

Some students don't like Dr. Yao but I found that she was a good teacher. She lectures from the powerpoint, which can get boring sometimes but she is really into what she teaches. As long as you do the Aplia homework and study, you should do pretty good on her tests. Very sweet person in my opinion.

Great professor, cares about her students, you just need to put in some effort and show that you also care.

great teacher. she was always there If you needed help. hard tests but if you study a few days in advance you will pass.

Econ is hard but she is a great teacher and wants to make sure everyone understands.

Econ isn't a easy class but she is so nice and tries to make sure everyone understands:)

Attend class and pay attention and you will do well in the class. Complete homework on time and study before exams and you'll be fine. One of the most caring professors in the econ department and genuinely cares about her student's success. can be confusing at times with her accent so I would recommend taking her class in person.

A very caring and funny teacher who thoroughly goes through all the material. You get out what you put in, show up to class because it is soooo important and she gives extra credit every once in a while. A lot of studying is required for the exam so take detailed notes during lectures and try to show you care. Excellent teacher if you at least try.

I love Dr. Yao when I took her my freshman year she was the reason I switched to being an Econ major. Most of the people who get Cs in her class are just lazy she greatly rewards effort in her class and will likely bump you up to the next letter grade if you just try hard.
