A teacher that cares for her students. Her lecture slides are clear and after every lesson she provides a step by step breakdown through an example and stops after every couple of slides to ask if we understand. Brings chocolates during exams. Books extra seminars during breaks for those who need it. Very clear and fair prof!

Sohee is truly an awesome prof. and only wants you to do well. She gives ample opportunity for group related work (i.e., quizzes) that allow students to help each other. Her lectures are clear when she doesn't rush but may skip over some stuff when time is running low. If you go to lectures, read the textbook and do the problems, you'll do fine.

One of the best profs at UTSC. Obtaining a good grade is easy if you attend class and do the practice problems on a weekly basis. The midterm is really easy but the final is much more tricky so the key to getting a good grade would be to absolutely ace the midterm and leave room for a bad mark on the final. weekly quiz qs are taken from homework qs

I took STAB27 with Professor Kang last year and had a mixed experience. She's enthusiastic about statistics and very knowledgeable. However, since our class did well overall on the midterm, she put concepts on the final that we hadn't learned to bring down the overall average. Also, on many occasions, the TAs didn't answer emails from students.

Ms. Kang is very kind to students and truly cares about everyone's happiness throughout the course while still challenging everyone through exams (especially the final). Doing practice of previous exams is enough to do well on the final though, so even the exam aspect of the course is fair. Statistics is fantastic!

Sohee is honestly one of the best professors I've had in my first year at UTSC. It's obvious she cares deeply about not only her student's well-being but that she is also extremely passionate about the course content.

Professor Kang is super sweet and tries her best to make the course easy. (IT IS NOT AN EASY COURSE I UNDERESTIMATED IT) I am not good at stats but did well on the assignments so even though I failed the tests I still pulled through with an A- She was really generous with bonus marks, definitely recommend her as a prof

Fairly hard course - you REALLY need to keep up w the weekly content and material. Her exams are the hardest part of the course but the bonus marks are SO GENEROUS that tho I probably deserved to fail I did a lot better than expected. As a person she cares a LOT about students, from that alone I would take her course again and again if I could!

She was genuinely one of the sweetest professors I've had. Although I would not say she is easy, she tries her best to ensure everyone is able to pass the course. Attendance is no mandatory, she does give an additional 2% for attending lectures. She also curves quite often, I really enjoyed her class overall even though I hated the subject itself.

I just wanted to express here how much I appreciate sohee. She's so sweet and tries her hardest to make her lectures fun and engaging. Course is definitely HARD, I didn't do the best but I did learn a lot of important things in this course. She also curves fairly and had 2% extra credit for attendance and ngl this motivated me to attend lectures

I dropped STAB22 because I was failing badly. Despite this, I really enjoyed the teaching being done for the class. Many opportunities to succeed are given as long as you put a sufficient amount of time into understanding the material (which is something I didn't do). I would definitely attempt this course again with Prof. Kang, she is amazing!

Sohee Kang is one of the best profs I've had in first year at UTSC. She's caring, inspirational, and always willing to help. She gives great feedback and assigns a lot of homework, but it really helps for the midterm and final. She even gave bonus marks! You can tell she truly wants her students to succeed.

Sohee is very caring when it comes to students. She gives opportunities to receive bonus marks to be added to your grade. Midterm was okay and Final was a but hard, but I find that doing past exams is great preparation. She's approachable and responds quickly to posts on piazza.

Dr. Kang truly made me excited for class, she has unlimited amounts of enthusiasm and is always willing to listen to students when they're lost. Her course is not easy by any means, but with enough studying, practice, and visits to her office hours an A is very doable. STRONGLY recc!!

She covers the material well and tries to make sure students understand it too. Many examples in her slides on each concept and she re-iterates most of the important points. She's stops for questions in class and will answer questions outside of class too.

She's a super nice and caring prof, unfortunately it's a difficult subject for a lot. I'm currently in the class and the average for the midterm was a 56. The only issue I'd have is that the example questions she does in class are nothing like on the test. Before any tests, look over past year tests and quizzical questions or you'll fail.

Prof Kang is one of the best professors at UTSC. If you're taking STAB22 if you actually try it's impossible to fail the class, she gives you so many opportunities for extra credit and practically gives away free marks w/ quizzes, data labs, & quizzical. Her exams are very fair, so as long as you actually study it's extremely easy to get an A.

Professor Sohee has great lectures and does give a lot of opportunities to boost your grade. However, the midterm and final are very different in terms of difficulty compared to lecture slides and sometimes even textbook questions, so it is very important that you go over her past midterms and finals + quizzical questions.
