Professor Im wants the very best for his students. He responds quickly and detailed to emails. His class is very organized. You have to do a few discussion posts a week, a midterm, final, and a final paper. The exams are not proctored and open note, book, and google. Take this course over summer or online. I would 100% recommend Professor Im!

Professor Taehoon was decent. He grades pretty strictly on the class participation which is worth 25% of the grade. However, the test are relatively easy. Attendance is also another free 10%, so just show up. Final paper at the end of the course.

I took him online, participation heavy! As long as you actually put effort into your discussion posts, commenting on others, and take the tests you will pass. Final Paper due at the end that you can work on the whole semester. He is great, I plan on taking him for other marketing courses.

He let me know that I failed in participation even though I am 100% sure that I always did the weekly check in and I missed 1 discussion board. Apparently the difference in me getting an A. I've never had lower than a B in other class due to a discussion board assignment. Crying because his class was the difference in graduate school for me.

Taken as full-term online in the spring, but can be taken during summer as well. Dr. Im is very attentive and willing to resolve issues related to the class. Very discussion oriented class with a few tests that don't require the textbook (do study, but the class isn't difficult). Overall a highly recommended class and a great professor.

Overall, he is a good professor, but he never finished putting in the grades at the end of the semester. I don't understand why. My GPA went down because of him. He promised to grade the paper and drop one of our lowest test grades but never did. Participate or he will give you a low grade on participation.

The course was confusing with discussion guidelines and the lecture videos were time consuming to watch. Easy class just not clear on grading criteria and not much graded so if you make one bad grade it bring it down a lot. I took over summer 1 semester and only really struggled on the tests but since there were so few grades my grade was worse.

I took International MKTG Summer 1. Active participation in discussions improves your grade. 2 open note exams and 1 final paper (group or individual) Lectures are asynchronous, so watch them fully to understand the material. He's passionate about teaching, and the resources are relevant and insightful. I'd definitely take Professor Taehoon again!

The class had very few assignments; there were two tests, a final paper, and a discussion board every week. Instead of setting a clear minimum number of posts and replies necessary to get a good grade on the discussion boards, he ranked each student. Your grade could be determined by other students' participation.

Professor Im is clear about his expectations and gives support whenever you need it. His lectures and the work is straightforward, if you pay attention to his syllabus you should have no problem with the course. The grade comprises only 2 exams, a final paper, and participation but he gives opportunities for extra credit. Great professor!
