He can be harder to understand, but he truly cares about his students. It was a hard course you definitely have to do the work, but he was very understanding and made it easy to ask him questions.

Dr. Kang cares a lot about his students. This is a course that many students struggle with, but he set it up so that students had a better opportunity to do well, by allowing students to complete assignments with bonus questions, and answer participation Tophat questions for a bonus mark. The exams and assignments were all pretty doable.

Our class was slightly behind on the course material plan, but I wouldn't blame him since the students in the lecture wasted our time by asking questions he already answered, and complaining about little details. He was patient and accomodating with his students, and did not get angry at us. He took our feedback seriously and catered to our needs.

Kang has an accent, but it's still easy to understand him in his videos and emails. He is very sweet, caring, and organized. He responded to emails very quickly. He also offered extra time on quizzes since they were online and we needed time scan and upload our work.

He is a prof that means well. Although he is unorganized and does not get assessments marked in a timely manner, he has great notes and extremely helpful and accessible outside of class. Worst case for this prof is you don't understand him in lectures, you get help outside the class and look over his detailed and clear notes and you will be fine

This year I am taking his STAT 321 and ACSC 325, the way how he organized his lecture note and videoes has improved a lot compared with the last year when he tuaght STAT213. I feel like he might be lack of experience before but right now he has made great improvement. He is also a prof that always willing to help us,and try to boost our marks.

Dr. Kang is one of the few profs in Actuarial Science that really cares about his students and wants to see them succeed. This is the second class I've had with him and he's come a long way. His notes are organized and he is often available to answer questions. His tests can be quite difficult but he is an easy grader. One of my favourite profs!!!

Dr. Kang has an amazing work ethic. If you have any questions he is always open to answer them with a uplifting attitude.

Hes great professor. Truly goes above and beyond for the students. Has helped with many tough situations like helping get paid access for certain websites for free when I was having financial hardships. The marking is quite considerate too (bonus 3% tophats, lowest assignment, lowest quiz is dropped) and a lot more I dont have space to mention.

I honestly love prof Kang. He is such a sweet guy and always extremely accommodating! He truly tries to make his student's lives as easy as possible, and always extends deadlines as he knows that many of us have a heavy course load. If you ever have a question, he emails you back extremely fast, sometimes within minutes. Easy to get a high mark!

Prof Kang is literally the sweetest! He is beyond understanding and generous with his deadlines/grading. He has an accent, but imo it does not affect my understanding of the content. Would recommend him as a prof for sure!

Professor Sang is the nicest professor you will get in first year. The material is very straight forward and the textbook is useful if notes are unclear. He will go out of his way to explain topics and help you succeed. I highly recommend you taking him if you want to succeed. Although his accent may be hard to follow, his notes are very detailed!

He was always understanding especially during midterm season. He extended assignments for us and also provided flexible grading as well as bonus marks. An amazing prof and really helpful!

Dr. Kang has saved me so much stress! Going into the class I was really worried since statistics is a really difficult concept for many. But Dr. Kang is very understanding of students in the online environment. Don't know what he is like in person though

He is incredibly nice, understanding, helpful, and accommodating. He gives many resources that will help students understand and practice the material. He has given many extensions because he understands students are busy. He is so sweet!

Prof. Kang is one of the best profs I've had, reading past ratings I think he has improved a lot. His notes are organized and even though he has an accent I can still understand him and learn. He is genuinely very nice and accommodating to his students especially now with online class and has concern over his students + accessible outside of class

One of the kindest and most understanding professors I have encountered in university. The reviews on here do not do him any justice. He has been so accommodating this online semester and has happily extended work upon students requests. He provides multiple opportunities to succeed and is an overall great person. Thank you Dr. Kang :)

Prof. Kang is probably one of the most generous and sincere professor I have ever had. The rates on here made me feel anxious about statistic, but man is this prof so nice! He provides many programs to help better understand materials and hes quite caring. He is willing to give extensions knowing students are struggling during online learning.

Hands down the nicest professor you will ever encounter. So accommodating and does way more than he needs to help students - but pls don't take advantage of his kindness! Well organized lectures, can easily listen on 2x speed. Tests are fair and based on the examples from lectures and assignments so you are never surprised. Very generous grading.

I highly recommend Dr. Kang as a prof for any stats course at U of C. He does have a strong accent, but is such a sweet and caring professor. He only wants you to succeed and is so accommodating. Stat 205 is a very enjoyable class, and Dr. Kang makes it that much more enjoyable. Overall just a great human and a wonderful prof. Highly recommend him!

Mr. Kang is an amazing professor! He really cares about his students and wants everyone to succeed. His accent is a bit difficult to understand at first but you get used to it quickly. He responds to emails in a timely manner and always wants to help out. Really enjoyed his class and would take it again if I could!

The most underrated prof of all time. Super reasonable and accommodating. Tests are very fair. Just pay attention in lectures and do the assignments. Flexible grading.

Hard to understand from time to time, but really helpful if you email him.

I was worried at first because it was hard to understand him due to accent barrier. However, if you did not understand something, he quickly clarified through emails or zoom meetings. He is a very caring professor who genuinely wants his students to do well. The course was heavy in assignments and Tophat sessions, but they were super helpful!

Dr. Kang is my most understanding prof for this semester. If you have a concern just email him and he will be very willing to help. Although sometimes the lectures are hard to understand due to the accent barrier, he has a lot of examples and clarifies often.

I would say his class was a little easier than many other math classes in the department. ASCS324 has 4 quizzes, 2 midterms, a final, and weekly tophats, so there's a fair amount of work. Dr Kang does stutter, which is likely because he's teaching math in a second language, but he will clarify and will always make time through zoom or office hours.

His accent is difficult to understand, but he goes above and beyond with his explanations.

He may be hard to understand however, his lectures are very helpful as he explains every topic very well. He is very lenient for grading tests and assignments, you just need to write anything and he will give partial marks. Make sure to do all the practice questions he posts to do well in the tests. Overall, great prof and takes teaching seriously.

Dr. Kang has been a very kind and accommodating prof. He's a nice guy who really cares about his students. If there were issues with understanding his lectures, I found that reading the textbook helped. He also offers bonus marks via tophat which serve as a good way to get some practice in too. His tests have also been pretty fair and easy.

Dr. Kang's lectures are sometimes hard to follow but I know he tries his best. If you attend his office hours, he is much more helpful and he really does want his students to succeed. His office hours helped me get a better understanding of the difficult concepts. The midterm is tough though because there's an essay portion so be prepared.

The R codes that Dr. Kang provided for us literally saved my grade. I would not be able to do any of the homework questions without his R codes. I've heard that the other two lectures don't have R codes provided for them so definitely take stats with Dr. Kang so that you don't struggle with your homework and you'll know which formulas to use

Professor Kang is probably the most accessible prof I have ever met. He held multiple zoom office hours at 9pm just to help us with questions before the midterm. He's not the best at teaching but it's bearable. His r codes also helped me a lot with the assignments

Dr. Kang is super nice and helpful. Although he's sometimes confusing, he is super accessible outside of class to clarify any concepts. You can tell he cares about his students because he even offers extra office hours at 9pm just to help us. You should be fine in his class if you put in the work and attend office hours!

He provides R codes to make assignments and exams easier. He gives extensions and his notes are really good. If you want to do well, do the homework he provides and it should be an easy A. Classes can be attended online or in-person, which was really nice. He is one of the best STAT profs out there.

He provides all the r codes we need for the class which makes the class so much easier. He is also very open to providing extensions on assignments. He does have an accent but it is not hard to follow along. He has very straightforward notes and is very accessible if you need more help.

Prof Kang is really good. Use his R codes and do the practice he gives and you will do well. If you can't understand him, use his notes as they are very helpful. It was nice to have an online option to attend the class.

Extremely helpful during office hours.

Dr Kang really cares about his students. He extended several of the assignment and quiz deadlines during tougher points in the semester. His notes are clear and straightforward. If I had to note down a con, it'd be that the classes are really fast-paced; I printed the slides ahead of time because I couldn't write everything down quickly enough

Everyone mentions his accent but it's quite understandable. He tries his best to teach well and genuinely cares about his students. If you don't understand something, he is super helpful during office hours!

He is not the best teacher and does not give the best explanations, his accent can also be confusing at times. However, he really cares for his students and will go an extra mile to help you in whatever you need and this makes up for everything else.

Dr Kang is very caring and genuinely wants his students to succeed. Throughout the semester, he provided numerous amounts of extra office hours before exams to help as many students as possible. Unlike other professors, he provides r codes which made the class so much easier.

Honestly, he gets a bad rap because of his accent and his stutter, but that's out of his control and you'll get used it. The practice version he provides for the midterm and lab exam are identical to the real test, so as long as you understand how to do those you should be fine

Dr. Kang wants the best for his students and he tries to curve the marks so that we all do good. Lectures were sometimes disorganized but if you read the slides ahead of time, you should be fine during class. His R codes were extremely helpful and his extra office hours were a tremendous help to my success in this class.

Dr. Kang was clear about what he expected from the tests, the tests were very easy/straightforward. I did not go to most of the lectures and instead, just read his notes. He only uses the best 5 of 6 for quizzes & tests, which helps the grade out. He is also very nice & efficient when responding to emails & questions in-office hours. Has accent.

Professor Kang is probably the best Professor you could ever ask for. At first I had a hard time understanding what he was saying because of the heavy accent, afterward, everything he says makes complete sense. He will sacrifice his own personal time to create zoom meetings and will extend his office hours to help those who need the extra help.

Had him for 325 and liked him, taking 327 with him and still like him. So many opportunities to test out what you know, questions he gives are actually the sort of questions you see on exams. Literally the only ACSC prof I've had that cares about his students, doesn't just do the bare minimum (you suck Scollnik). Also his accent is not that bad lol

Kang is a great prof who really cares about his students, for example when the class average of an exam is a bit lower than he would like, he will boost it by giving everyone a bonus mark. While he does have an accent and can be hard to understand at times, his slides help clear up any misunderstandings. STAT 205 was overall a very simple class.

the best ACSC professor at the university. He genuinely cares about his students, puts a lot of effort into lectures, and provides examples in class that he goes through step by step. Initially, I was afraid of his strong accent but his dedication in and outside of class is admirable. If I could, I would take all my ACSC courses with him.

He is very passionate and goes over tons of examples in class step by step. He also offered my lecture through zoom and recorded every lecture, which was very helpful. He is extremely accessible outside of class time and puts a lot of effort into making sure you understand.

Great

He has an accent and can be harder to understand at times but he is so quick to answer emails and is very good at providing help. Probably the best prof I've had yet.

Heavy accent but tries his best to teach and is nice going about it. Was lenient grading and with missing quizzes and such, he gave me extensions.

Difficult to understand at first but get used to. Always high energy and excited to be there. He is great start to day even if the class isn't.

Dr. Sang Jin Kang is an amazing prof and is always very enthusiastic about his lessons and teaching. He is very accessible outside class and provides many opportunities to learn and improve. Provides lots of practice and gives extensions. One of the best professors I have ever had! His lectures are also very organized.

Professor Kang is such an enthusiastic prof! He makes it enjoyable to pay attention to his lectures and his slides are organized. People may find it hard to understand him with his accent but if you attend class regularly you will understand him. He is always available for help and responds to emails quickly!

I was really nervous to take Stats but I was pleasantly surprised. Once doing the assignments I felt confident. Dr. Kang is enthusiastic and passionate. He was a bit hard to understand at first due to his accent but you get used to it! Dr. Kang provides all the resources needed for success, and tests fairly. If I can do it, you can too!

He is super dedicated, and I found his accent understandable. The quizzes and assignments were easy and the midterms were fair. We were behind at times, but he is flexible with due dates. Overall very nice and approachable

Accent may be hard to understand sometimes but he uploads lectures online which you can use the subtitles to configure the words. But overall he is great at explaining concepts, class concepts were pretty simple and doing the practice he provides and going through slides/slide examples, you'll do great in this class.

he talks fast, stutters and has a heavy accent so it can be a bit hard to understand but he's very passionate and enthusiastic about his teaching, once you get past the accent his explanations are very good. He puts a lot of effort into his slides with lots of examples. his hand writing is also a bit messy tho.

For a class that's heavier on the theory side, his lectures are a lot harder to follow along with but he makes up for it with his energy. Tests also aren't too hard and are the exact same as the practice problems. Only issue is that he posts the practice solutions the day before or even the day of the exam. Excel assignments were fun and easy!

Prof. Kang is engaging and helpful, though his accent takes some getting used to. StuckStudy AI was a big help for test prep - highly recommend it alongside the free textbook.

He's our glorious king. Gave out extensions all the time. People gonna hate because he has a heavy accent, but you get used to it and start to understand him.

You'll get used to the accent quickly. He was extremely kind and would curve anything where the average was below 70%. He would email us all the time so we were up to date on any changes, and was extending due dates all the time by the end of the course. He also recorded lecture videos when the WiFi didn't work and students couldn't attend online

He has an accent and can be harder to understand at times but he is so quick to answer emails and is very good at providing help. Probably the best prof I've had yet.

Although he has an accent at first, you will definitely get used to it! He is honestly an amazing prof that genuinely cares about his students! There were a few assignments and in class top hat participation, but he provided amazing examples, explained everything well, and gave extensions! Tests are straight forward and what is outlined! Great guy!

Such a sweet guy! He made a subject that I usually struggled with in the past very easy to understand and was so helpful with everything. Very flexible and generous with live assessments and questions, and very on top of communication with the class. P.S. to all my Y1 Nursing students, would 100% recommend fulfilling the STAT requirement with him!

Dr. Kang is a respectful and amazing professor. He is very accommodative and understanding. He offers a zoom option to his in person classes, as well to many quizzes being fully online. He is so wholesome and he teaches the material very well. It is clear that he is extremely passionate about statistics.
