One of the worst professor I have ever seen. No reply to emails, tough grading. She doesn't value the opinion of students. She changes class schedules daily, which affects work. Even though the answers are correct she gave fewer grades.
Never take her class, the class is too tough to pass.
Don't waste your money by choosing this professor.
Tough grader
Never take this class.
I was surprised to see so many bad reviews on professor Chang. She is not a tough grader or a bad teacher. Here's the thing, she teaches everything very well, and if you take time and learn those things you'll easily get A+. Not just marks but she explains things that are useful in the real world. If you don't put effort, you will not pass.
She is a good professor. She is not tough grader, she always explains the things very clearly and want to help you to obtain good grade.
I felt a bit worry before joining Jean's class as her comment on this website is bad. However, after attending her lessons, I found Jean is one of the best Eng teacher among the college! She always tries to help her students and to offer more when the student get confused. Good at teaching and makes concepts very clear. She is a very fair grader.
She's a really good teacher. Attendance is mandatory for her classes. If you don't attend, you won't pass. This is one of the easiest courses I have taken, prof gives clear instructions. This is an English course, if you're not good at English then it'll be challenging. Not just this course, but any course.
The way she guides you about any assignment, that is the best.
She is very nice and helpful. She will tell you exactly what's needed and will give you the right feedback you need to improve for better grade. She is way better than my COMM 161 professor.
She is a good professor and helpful too. She gave me decent grades for each assignments.
Gives everything you need to complete your assignments, explains material clearly, uses class time effectively. You won't have problems passing this course if you attend classes and follow her instructions.
She is a very dedicated teacher, she put a lot of effort into her teaching method for her students to succeed in the assignment. Though COMM 171 was a tough module, she made it easy. She always provides a detailed explanation, including outlines and templates and proceeds stepwise with the essay writing. For me, she is the best.
The professor Jean Chang is amazing and excellent tutor for the English course . She is a caring teacher who provides honest feedback to the student learning which makes them to improve their academic performance. Overall, in my perspective, she develops a positive environment in the class which make great connections between the students.
Overall a very chill professor. She was sweet and just to everyone. Would definitely take her classes again. You should also put effort from your side.
The professor is awesome! She's very polite and is always ready to answer all our questions. I would definitely take her classes again.
Ms, Jean Chang is very professional. I recommend it to the student who wants to learn good English to prefer this professor. If I had the opportunity to have her again as my teacher to repeat the course again, I would do it very happily.
She clearly shared the grading criteria and test question types. We are able to get fair and good grade if follow her instructions.
It was an amazing semester with professor Chang. The lectures were very organized which made it much easier to understand the courseworks. I would strongly recommend attending the lectures. She properly explained everything and always gave precise and great feedback which helped a lot during assignments. I would definitely take her course again.
The course is well organized and Professor Chang explains everything thoroughly. She also gives quite detailed feedback. If you follow the instructions she gave, you will get a good grade.
Ms. Jean Chang is a good professor, she give set of instructions to how to perform in her class and how to write the essays, the marks are given based on how you write essays using her instructions and suggestions. Attendance is mandatory, if you're unable to attend class you can go through the class recordings.
The course can be overwhelming at first but Professor made every course topics clear and easy to understand.
If you follow her instructions you definitely get good grade. Professor is really good and give proper feedback. You have just follow instructions given by professor. And also professor take attendance in starting so, if any want to leave they can. Professor not say anything if you leave after attendance.
Following the feedback
to pass this course you need to follow each and every small thing she tells which I think is kind of wrong she will grade you badly even if you missed one small thing. But this prof is better than others so go for her and follow what ever instruction she gives
great prof. but only if you attend classes.
Great professor with a lot of patience and knowledge.
If you are looking for some improvement on writing, she is very good at it, she gives clear and useful feedback and you'll know what your weaknesses are and how to make your writtings more effecitvely. Overall, she is really good at teaching!
The class was a fantastic experience, and Professor Jean Chang was a wonderful instructor. I had a great time in this class. Her attention to detail and her remarks demonstrate how much time and work she has put into this course. She genuinely tries her hardest to provide you with a thorough and in-depth review of your work.
This professor explains everything so easily and in a clear way. She provides the student with all the necessary tools to write good essays and assignments.
Professor Jean is a passionate professor and English teaching expert. You can learn much if you attend her class and do all the assignments under explicit instruction. She is helpful, and her feedback is valuable for improving your English writing. I chose her class after I read the comments here, but I wanted to improve my English.
Prof Jean Chang is so good at teaching and give excellent feedback,thus you can score excellent grades. She is one of the most recommended professors in Centeenial College in my opinion.
I highly recommend Professor Jean Chang for COMM 171 course to the new student. She is knowledgeable and well-organized. She knows what her talking about. She's approachable, and her teaching style is easy to follow and not intimidating. She's considerate to students, gives good marks, and provides helpful feedback to succeed in her course.
This is my first semester in Centennial, Prof. Chang is a very supportive and diligent instructor. She is very patient on teaching and gave students educative knowledge and offered significant comment on my mistakes and how can I to improve my further assignments. Not very stricted for grading if you follow her instrcutions to do assignments.
I really recommend Prof. Jean if you prefer a well-organised and passionate professor. I love the way Prof. Jean Chang teaches in the class. She uses assignments as a platform to teach in class. Therefore, you don't have to worry about applying what you learn from class to the assignments.
The worst professor i have ever had in my life
The classroom isn't place to share your own believes. For many classes she spoke against the COVID-19 vaccine by bringing fake news as "facts". If she doesn't believe in scientists and doesn't want to take her vaxx, it is her problem - although vaccine doesn't work if the whole community doesn't take it - but bringing this to class, is disgusting.
It was my second semester, I have already met other english professors. But Professor Chang was the best one. She used to provide a good feedback. And even if you write something exceptional which can carry or makes value on your writing, apart from a not a good essay, she used to give us marks for that extra things which I love it..
Her teaching method is ok. But might have some own bias when marking the writing.
Professor Jean Chang is very professional and she also gives very detailed feedback on everything. Honestly, I passed this course because of her feedbacks only.
Professor Jean Chang is an amazing professor. she is direct and understanding. she tells you what is needed and expected and if you follow her instructions you will do great. Her lectures are well-organized and information-rich. I loved and enjoyed her class.
Professor Chang is a great teacher, she always gives very accurate feedback for each process that you do.
Prof. Jean is an intelligent and great professor. She explained everything in detail and made the course easier for everyone to fully understand.
If you follow her instruction, you will easy to get high marks
I highly recommend prof. Jean for this course. She is very well-organized and details to explain the assignment instruction. She always guides students on how to do the assignments to teach the course. If you can follow her instructions, you will get a very good grade. At last, she always records her classes so you can review them once again.
You will regret if you didn't take her class. All you need is to follow the instructions given.
She is a good professor. She is an expert in her lesson. She explained very well the lesson.
Never choose this professor otherwise you will get a D grade.
She gave clear and practical instrucutions and valuable feedbacks. No stupid breakout room to waste your time. 60 minutes to 90 minutes per lecture.
My bad luck why I have chosen this English professor ?????? Choose this professor at your own risk surely you will get D-grade.
In her lessons, she was always straight to the point. If you attend all the classes, you would have a clear concept of all your homework. She gave useful advise and replied to our email quickly.
It is not difficult to get a good grade form her
COMM 171 is one of the most challenging courses, but thanks to Professor Jean's expertise and wonderful teaching, I was able to succeed in it. She provides clear grading criteria and grades generously as long as students follow instructions. She avoids unnecessary activities and her critical thinking skills are impressive. Highly recommended!
A very organized professor. Learn so much from her and raise my interest in learning English and reading techniques.
She is very nice and a very good professor explain each and every thing in details and clearly solve the doubt.
Her teaching strategies are clear and corresponds with the guidelines provided thereto.
What I learned from her is not only English, but also critical thinking and the organisation of thoughts. Her beautiful voice and speaking tone have made it easy and enjoyable to learn.She put a lot of effort into grading assignments and provides me with useful feedback. Following her guidelines has helped me to achieve good grades.Highly recommend
Jean is the best professor I met at Centennial College, her feedbacks and teaching are clear and concise. If you follow her instructions, you won't get a low grade. She is also supportive and willing to provide further explanation when you email to her.
Professor Jean is amazing, I was terrified that I might fail this course but she walked us through it from the start until the end of the semester. She explains all the important details of the assignments. She will help you in this course, but you will only succeed if you do your part and help yourself too. I have learned a lot from her.
Jean is an excellent professor. She delivers well-organized lectures and provides clear guidance for completing assignments. By following her instructions, you can avoid receiving a low grade. She is fast in grading and gives detailed feedback. Besides, she encourages us to think critically. It is very useful for lifelong learning.
Jean is a very good English professor because she is always helpful and gives good feedback. I would recommend her as your English professor.
Jean is an amazing teacher! She is very organized and gives clear instructions, which is helpful to pass the course! You must attend to class to pass the course!
I was skeptical about my decision of taking in-person COMM 171 class, but Prof. Jean made every class quite interesting. Gripping lecture delivery style, clear instructions and helpful feedback. I would recommend Prof. Jean for other COMM students as well.
Jean Chang is one of the best professors at Centennial College. I took my COMM 161 and COMM 171 with her; it was one of my best decisions ever! If I have to take another COMM I would take it with her. Her methodology is the best. Her classes weren't boring. She is so dynamic. Her feedback is so useful and she is not too strong when she grade us.
If you are looking for a new COMM 171 professor at Centennial College, I suggest you choose prof Jean Chang. If you attempt all sessions and listen to everything she teaches, you will get good grades
Professor Jean's mentoring goes beyond simply teaching writing skills; she encourages critical thinking, making her a real angel professor. Her lessons are well-organized and informative, thanks to well-structured outlines and templates. If you choose her, you will not be regret.
This professor is always ready to help. I had a good experience in her class. She is organized with her assignments and instructions. Provides clear details and helping materials for the assignments.
She is the best tutor I have ever seen before. She pay attention to students' growing. She knows the original materials were inadequate so she rearranges many extremely useful materials by herself. Her comments were in detail and fruitful. Becuase of her, I got an A+ with recognition in final Oral Sector. Highly suggest if you really want to learn.
Professor Jean gives clear guidance for assignments and tests, and is very reasonable when it comes to grading. Attendance is not mandatory but truly matters if you are looking for good grade. If you are looking to learn something out from COMM161, you'll like Prof. Jean's class :) Hopefully she will be teaching COMM171 in the coming semester.
I'm a student from Hong Kong, a place where I was taught English alphabet since I was 3. Honestly speaking, Professor Jean Change is the best English teacher I have so far. It's not east to find a professor who is so affectionate and willing to spend time on students to explain their homework case by case, it impressed me a lot.
Jean is a very good professor. She always have a very clear lecture.
She is a lovely proff. Helped me with one of my assignments at the last min when I was almost about to fail. Would definitely recommend her!!!
Really good professor, makes assignments easy for students
Really good professor, makes assignments easy for students
Jean is one of the best professors without a doubt. I am so grateful for her methods, personality, and kindness.
Nice Professor
She is an awful professor. Her instructions regarding the assignments are totally unclear, so we get confused as what should be done and what not.
She is amazing at lectures and you will find it easy to understand her. She will give good guidance and feedback for your every work so it will be easy for you to improve a lot.
She is a good teacher and her feedback is constructive. If you follow all along, focus on every step she points out, and adapt everything she guides, you will get a good grade and it also upgrades your writing and research skills.
Time efficient and direct to the point.
She is very clear with her explanations
I wish the professor created a less stressful environment for us students, with lectures focused on comfort rather than constant reminders of failure and negativity. If every student could perform to their fullest potential in every subject, there wouldn't be a need for psychological pressure and intimidation in every lecture.
Professor Jean was awesome and very helpful. She tried to give a detailed feedback in each assignment for everyone and helped us fixed our mistakes to get better grades for next assignments.
Good teacher
Yes I would.
Professor Jean is an exceptional lecturer. Although she gives a lot of assignments given that our course is a compressed course, she gives a very helpful feedback on each assignment. Every meeting she gives detailed instructions on what she expects to see on the given assignment.
Follow her feedbacks and you will get great grades.
She is a good professor and easy to follow her instructions.
Jean is a very nice professor. She taught us how to complete our homework in detail.
Nice professor with clear grading. Gives good feedback for improvement
Provides relevant feedback and constructive criticism that are beneficial. Just make sure to apply them to get a high score. Very jolly during online classes -- I just wished our class got to experience this in person!
She is one pf the best professors. It was great experience of studying with her.
The professor is amiable and very knowledgeable about the course material. Her instructions are clear and easy to follow. As long as you attend class regularly and dutifully complete the assignments, you should have no trouble achieving high scores in the course.
Professor Jean Chang is an exceptional COMM 161 instructor. Her teaching style makes complex topics easy to understand, with clear explanations and real-world examples. She fosters an inclusive, engaging environment, provides valuable feedback, and is deeply committed to her students' success. I've learned so much and highly recommend her!
she is a kind teacher and gives recorded videos to us to review.
Ms. Jean is amazing! The Flipped class model that she uses really helps me a lot to be successful in this course. She gives individual feedback and is supportive to the learning needs of the students. Thank you so much!
Professor Jeanis gives amazing lectures, making complex topics easy to understand through clear and articulate explanations. She provides thoughtful and constructive feedback. Her passion for the subject is infectious, inspiring students to delve deeper and explore their interests.
The course will pass with no trouble as long as you follow this professor's schedule and do each assignment carefully.
Jean Chang guided and supported throughout the semester. I really appreciated her teaching style, the clarity of her pedagogy, and the effective feedback she consistently provided. Even in an online setting,her support was always present and meaningful. I truly enjoyed COMM161, and I hope to have the opportunity to learn from her again in COMM171.
A very good professor.
She is a good teacher. She always answers the questions patiently and her lessons are very clear. She teach us how to write a good essay.
Professor jean is inspirational teacher and very nice.
She's the best best Proffff...
No words, Just perfect
Since I am not very proficient in English, I found this course quite challenging. However, it seemed to be at an appropriate level of difficulty for other students. The professor consistently provided excellent feedback, and the weekly guidance helped me stay on track with the course, making it easier to follow.
It is a great experience to have Professor Chang's class.
highly recommend this course with Jean Chang prof
ENG253 was easy to pass with her. She is always willing to walk me through every detail, Even if i ask dump question. love you professor!
Constantly tries to spread right wing anti-vax propaganda.
She's a hard marker no matter how good you write and does not give effective feedback. Although I got a B+, I still deserved an A because I worked so hard, and it didn't feel like my effort was really recognized. The lack of clear guidance made it difficult to understand what was missing or how to improve.
Professor Chang was very enthusiastic in each class. Explanations were clear, complex concepts were broken down in a way that made the material easy to understand, and an open environment was created where students felt comfortable asking questions. Attendance is mandatory and graded, absences are not excused even in cases of medical emergency.
Great and fair prof. Highly recommend picking
