Her classes weren't the most exciting, as most of them were just long lectures. The homework assignments were easy and gave full credit as long as they were complete. What I had trouble with were her writing assignments, which weren't graded so leniently and had very unclear directions. What you get out of the class depends on the work you put in.

Very help full teacher

Really empathetic and helpful. Accent makes it sometimes hard to understand her, but she is very willing to answer questions in the middle of a lecture. I really liked her class!

Loved this class. So helpful for my future.

Very nice teacher. She seems very harsh on students, but actually she helped me in all aspects of English capacity, especially for writing and speaking.

Good teacher. The kind that wants you to pass and helps and just wants you to do good. Need to show up to class but can't complain about that, nice, funny sometimes, good teacher.

Good teacher. Not too much assignments. Give you full points as long as you submit your discussion and first draft.

She gives good feedbacks and vey helpful. One thing that seems hard from her is she has a clear grading criteria.

Jun is a well-prepared teacher. You can ask whatever you want about the class and contact her whenever you have any questions. Every time I feel confused with the assignments or the outcome I should include in my paper, I ask her through canvas, and she always replies.

Professor Xu is helpful, she replies every time when I ask her a question on email.

She is an amazing professor and cares about her students. The class is a lot of work; a lot of reading and a few group presentation. Learning from her was one of my best experience.

She is a great teacher! Expect to work on essays over the weeks, and to do research. Total of 4 papers to write for her, but if you put in the effort it won't be that hard. The only down side is she takes a while, probably longer to grade papers. People say they can't understand her at times, but come on, she speaks English fine. Great stuff.

Had an awesome time learning about something new. The class was based off the premise of climate change. It was very eye opening and informative. You can easily understand what she is saying even with a slight accent. She has a straight forward teaching style (which i love). She will tell you how it is, regardless of if you like it or not.

She is dedicated to her job.

This class does not have any quizzes or tests. As long as you go to class every day and finish assignments, you'll have an easy A. She's very clear with the assignments and what she expects. Although she has an accent, it does not get in the way of her teaching. The class focuses on methods of argumentation, logic, and the topic of climate change.

The class is very easy. You have homework almost everyday. If you submit it on time and work on it then, after going over it in class, you can revise and submit it again if you missed any points. There are no tests, but 4 papers. She answers any questions you have clearly. Have both books the first day of class. Rating should be 5.

She gives great feedback and is flexible. She is very caring and will give students an extra amount of time to turn in an assingment if you had a hard time understanding it and ask her about it. She uses a lot of examples and will have the class do a few examples in class before giving out homework or writing a paper. I absolutely love her class!

Jun Xu cares a lot about her students and wants them to succeed. Class is relatively easy as long as you go to class and get the homework in. Be ready to do a lot of grammar homework. There are 3 essays in her class, the first one is an outline, then a rough draft, and then a final draft. The final is also an essay that she gives advance time to do

She is helpful and a good teacher. Make sure to complete everything on time and you'll be good.

She is organized, nice. If you ask for an extension, she is ok, but you still need to do the work.

I had Prof Xu for 2 classes in the sames quarter. Her level of expectation from her students was high and at times many have seemed unreasonable to others, but I personally found she took personal interest in making sure her students succeed. With the solid foundation she gave us it helped me immensely with my other higher level classes.

Professor Xu was one of the best English teachers I've had to privilege to be in the same classroom as. Personally her focus on content and unique paper styles which emphasized your actual opinion as the main thing she wanted to hear and not necessarily the normal answer. She encouraged you to form your own opinion and foster it throughout the term

Great class for an easy A. Not necessarily great for improving your writing if you have already taken a lot of high level writing classes or AP classes.

Taken Async. Professor Xu is very helpful and helps you accomplish the tasks for the class. They provide ample time to get started on essays and develop meaningful ideas. The discussions and classmate interactions are helpful to the development of classwork. Homework is not assigned frequently, but it is denser. However, this was not a problem.

Prof. Xu was overall a very good teacher. during the quarter any accomodations I needed were met incredibly well. if there was one thing I wish I knew beforehand, there is a section in the course for which a survey, interview, or similar must be conducted. It wasn't a problem for me, but be wary if you think this may be difficult for you.

The directions for some of the assignments were hard to understand, but overall it was a great class!

I was overall satisfied with my first-year experience at Bellevue College. Professor Xu was great! My class was online, we were given enough time to turn in our weekly assignments, and we were able to experience group projects and get feedback from other students.

She generally just wasn't hard on anyone. If you need a couple of days to do an assignment after the due date would most likely grant them to you but only if you show that you're not using her leniency to be lazy. If you actually get the work done and put a reasonable effort you WILL pass this class.

Professor Xu cares about her students. She is one of the best professors you could ever have. She is very lenient and understanding. If you're planning on taking English 201 then I highly recommend you take her class.

She is very nice and very responsive. If you follow instructions and submit your assignments on time, you will get an easy A. She is very nice and helpful.

Very kind, accessible, and understanding. Professor Xu is really knowledgeable and helpful with your writing processes. I definitely would recommend to anyone who wants to take English 201.

She is a knowledgeable professor. Of course you should do all the assignments, but, overall shes the best. If you try your best and talk to her she will understand. I took two of her classes 101 and engl 201. I give you all my blessings to take her class she is truly the best Im wordless at this point!

nothing much keep doing what your doing

I took her Engl 101 and then 201. I learned a lot. She is a great teacher.

I appreciate the fact that she cared more about my writing skills rather than my grade. She is very understanding and is a helpful professor. The first half of the quarter is light and prepares you for the other half which is more intense as you write three essays. I would definitely take this professor if you need to take ENGL201.

Jun was great for this class. This class is very participation focused and she is flexible with due dates if necessary. I wasn't super thrilled to take this course, but she made it a good experience!

I truly enjoy working with Professor Xu, and for that reason, I have taken two classes from this professor. I appreciate the honest feedback, which strengthens my ability to progress and contour any challenges. As a result, I have gained new skills in writing and drastically improved my reading skills. I look forward to taking more classes with Xu.

Professor Xu is definitely the professor you would want in college. Her class design was organized and logical. She gave feedback so timely that you can always know what to revise when doing the next assignment. She is very fair in giving credits, and she replied to nearly all my emails within a day.

To say that this class is difficult is an understatement. Jumping from English 101 to this class will certainly take your breath away. Multiple essays and writing projects with group projects. I certainly wouldnt have done as good as I did if it wasnt for Jun. Jun was very kind, helpful, and thorough. She gave me hope and incentive throughout.

Professor Xu is a really great and helpful teacher! There is a lot of homework, peer review (3), group projects, and essays (3) to complete which is why I said 3.0. Be sure to keep your notifications on, read homework instructions carefully, and add deadlines to your calendar. Lots of good feedback and replies. Only one extra credit opportunity.

Professor Jun Xu is one of the best professors that I've taken at BC. She is a very easy grader and accepts late work with no penalty. I learned a lot in her class and her feedback is great. The essays were also very fun to write since you get to choose your own topic. I can tell that she really cares about her students and wants them to succeed.

Professor Xu is a really nice professor and I enjoyed ENGL201 with her. You can send her messages anytime and she responds to them very quickly. The course requires you to write 3 papers, just the right amount - she puts everything into scaffolding steps which makes it so much easier to understand.

Would definitely take Prof Xu again. In the beginning you will have about 3 assignments due a week that are very helpful in learning how to write essays. You will write 3 essays total on a topic of your choice. Plenty of preparation is done to make it easy and plenty of time is given to write them. Prof Xu is a great teacher.

The first part of the quarter had a light workload just reading and simple assignments. There are three papers all on your topic of choice, once you start these papers the workload gets heavy but not unbearable. You are allowed to resubmit your papers. Some of the paper requirements are unclear just make sure to ask questions.

Prof. Xu is very nice; my class was asynchronous, but she was still easy to reach. The beginning of the class is very easy, so people get surprised by how much writing comes later. She's a super easy grader, but the big assignments are multi-page papers you are writing, so plan out you time to make sure you don't have to rush before the due dates!

Very flexible and accommodating to students and their time, she gave options to redo assignments for better grades so that the students learning process was reflected in their final grade. Not too much reading, and only a few essays for the whole quarter.

Although there was a lot of writing (3 papers including final, first 2 were 4-6 pages and final was 6-8 pages), Professor Xu was very kind and caring and was willing to help us when we needed it.

Jun is very nice and respected to everyone in the class. Her lecture and instructions are clear and logical. You would know how to make your paper to be a research paper clearly in the class!

She is one of the best english professors. I learned a lot in her class. She is an extremely professor and her lectures are informative. I would definitely take her as a professor again whenever I get the chance

Jun Xu is very accommodating, entertains questions even after class. Her grading guidelines are clear, gives extra credits. She follows a learning flow chart where you understand why a task is done for the day. Everything is connected toward the end goal. Even if a student can't attend in person, there are still ways to connect & understand.Cheers!

Smaller assignments at the beginning. One big research essay for finals, and two smaller essays about the topic before. Allows you to redo and resubmit any assignment. Coming to class is important but very communicative and easy to reach with questions. Each assignment is worth a lot of points but is the equivalent of if each one was lower.

3 essays total on one topic chosen at the beginning of the class (can redo all but final). Lets you make up points and turn most assignments in late. Attending in person class does matter. Gives very good feedback and answers questions/messages promptly. Highly recommend.

She is a good teacher. every assignment that she gave was easy. In the end, I improved my essay skills.

The class was straightforward and organized well. The work never becomes overwhelming but the class still requires effort and time put into it. From my experience, I found the grading to be lenient. Your grade is based mainly on 3 essays, a library research, a field research, and a cumulative final essay. I would recommend taking this class.

This is one of the best classes I've taken. What I learned here will help me in any career I choose. My approach to writing definitely improved. The lectures are very interesting, and she includes great resources. The class is very low-stress, so I enjoyed the learning process.

She is a very sweet person and a great teacher overall. Before her class, I struggled to write essays, but since then I have greatly improved. Take this class!

Professor Xu was great! She explained things very well and made sure the class understood every concept before moving forward. There were several papers but they were all spaced out well enough that even with college applications I felt like I had enough time to write each paper well and get a good grade.

I learned more than I expected because she provided very helpful feedback. She was patient and responded to my questions promptly. All assignments had grace periods, usually a week, and it was fine as long as I turned my work in during the grace period. All work led to the final paper, which was nice.

Excellent teacher! She gives wonderful feedback & stayed after class with me many times to answer my questions or help me develop a good writing outline. I expected English 201 to be difficult- but the writing skills you learn can be applicable to a job or developing research in general.

Professor Xu is incredibly kind and caring. Her criteria for assignments can at times be a little unclear but she is very easily accessible and responds to questions quickly. Get ready for lots of assignments, they do really help with the final paper though. I highly recommend Professor Xu.

Good teacher, assignments were spaced out well and my grade reflected the amount of work I put into this class. Pretty easy grader if you follow the grading criteria she posts. Would take again.

Jun is nice and smart and seems to generally care about her students. She makes the expectations for the class super clear and it's easy to meet this criteria and earn a good grade. The lectures are front-loaded and papers are towards the end of the quarter, but the work wasn't overwhelming at any point.

Great professor! I would love to take her class again!

This class was pretty seamless for an English class. The instructor was nice, and laid out instructions of what was expected. Only downsides is the amount of writing, but it is easier because all three papers you write in the quarter are on the same subject, so please make sure to choose an interesting subject.

The class is undoubtedly demanding, with a multitude of tasks to complete. However, its value lies in the teacher's exceptional preparation. As students, we must proactively organize our time to effectively navigate through this challenging course. My utmost respect goes to the teacher for their dedication to imparting knowledge.

I learned a lot in Professor Xu's class; she is a great teacher. The workload was okay. She gave good feedback, and I could revise my work and improve my grades.

One of the best professor I have for English.

kind of hard to understand with her accent but you'll be fine. very lecture heavy but consists of 3 papers throughout the entire quarter. MAKE SURE you pick an interesting topic. nice teacher cares about her students recommend

Very nice teacher with a good sense of humor. Great at giving feedback and ensuring that your papers are given feedback. Has a little bit of a strange communication policy but it's easy to get used to. You will be writing about the same topic all quarter and will have the same peer feedback group, so prepare for that.

She was very easy to get in contact with when I had a question. She also explained the instructions well and gave good feedback.

The teaching style and her passion to teach inspired me to do my best.

Jun gives lots of homework but clear criteria for grading. If you finish the assignment and followed instructions, it's easy to get an A. When you turn in a first draft and she takes points off, she will also give feedback on what should change. Make the changes and you'll get a good score on the final draft AND get points back on your first draft.

Professor Xu is a very kind and respectful individual! She's very understanding, but the class has lots of homework and readings. It's hard to keep up with all the assignments, but as long as you are able to manage them, then you'll be fine. The professors class structure is super direct and forward.

Jun Xu is an amazing teacher with well defined outcomes for her students. She is always prepared and understands the material she teaches. Her grace period is reasonable, and her communication is great too.

Great teacher! Professor Xu was super helpful and accommodating throughout the class. Would recommend!

Professor Xu's lectures were interesting, and she gave a lot of helpful tips on completing the assignments. You'll have the same research topic for the whole quarter, so pick something that you find interesting. There was a library research paper, a field research paper, and a final argumentative essay. She gives amazing feedback!

Professor Xu is a great teacher who gives clear feedback to help you improve. The assignments can be a lot of work, but using resources like unstuck study makes studying more efficient. Definitely a class worth taking if you're willing to put in the effort.

Dr. Xu is an extremely good professor for those who want to actually want to learn. Although the class I took (ENGL201) felt like more of a giant project rather than a class, I'm sure she would be an amazing professor to learn from if you took her in a different class.

Jun is a great instructor and provides meaningful feedback. She also provides ample opportunities to revise your work. Generous late work policy and cares about her students learning. I definitely would take her class again.

No professor will ever stack up to Prof. Xu; she was honestly one of the best professors I've had the whole year. The content and the way she operates her class are just too generous. Expect to do three essays and a few pieces of light homework a week. Great late policy, easy to reach outside of class, and revisions if you make mistakes.

This professor is my favorite. She takes teaching seriously, offering very constructive feedback that's been instrumental in improving my writing. Her dedication and knowledge are evident, and she genuinely cares about her students' success. I highly recommend her!

Professor Xu is incredibly knowledgeable and efficient. She strikes a great balance, clear expectations, helpful structure, and just enough guidance without micromanaging. Her feedback is direct and meaningful. You'll grow as a writer and thinker. I'd definitely take another class with her.

This online class was very well-organized and clearly structured. Professor Xu followed a consistent grading rubric and maintained high standards, which helped me understand expectations clearly. I learned practical steps and methods for writing academic papers. The variety and meaningfulness of the assignments enhanced the learning experience.

Professor Xu is very responsible, taking time at any time of the day, even at 11pm, to zoom me to help me resolve my problems promptly. I am so lucky to have her instruct me and I hope to take more of her classes.
