Professor Kwong is a really great professor. I really didn't know if he would be a great professor to take till I took him this semester for both chd classes chd10 and 17. I really recommend professor kwong
Professor Kwong is a good teacher. If you do the work, you will get a good grade. Although it was an online class, this class was interacting and consistent. Quizzes/discussions every week, 2 exams, 1 final, and assignments. Make sure you read the book and listen to his lecture. I highly recommend taking this class!
Great teacher. Responds fast to emails, always there to offer support and answer questions. Quizzes were every week which use proctorio to record you taking exam which was new and uncomfortable. Some projects can be a bit unclear and confusing. Midterms for me were hard but quizzes were fair. He grades easy and overall easy A if you do everything
Assignment is very difficult to do. he is explaining clear. Grading also putting soon. sometimes grading marks is very low. Responding in canvas also very quick.
He is Awesome. He is ready to help whenever needed. During this COVID 19 situation, he was very particular about our well being and he also sends us the articles which help children at home during this quartine period.
Quizzes are confusing, not getting good marks.
Professor Kwong is fair; he is willing to accommodate (to a certain extend) the needs of students. He cares about what he teaches and wants the students to understand what is important to be a good teacher. Professor Kwong does his research. But I recommend he reduces his reliance on multiple choice tests to evaluate students.
His instructions are clear when it comes to assignments. His tests are very by the book, not so much off the lectures. Quiz's are fairly easy, but midterms are slightly difficult and he does not offer study guides. He is easily assessable and responds quickly.
Discussions and participation matters in Prof. Kwong's class. There is no exams only a group project and few papers to write. He is very understanding, caring with his students, and encouraging! A bit unorganized however which has led me not to want to take him again.
Professor Kwong is a good professor and cares about his students. Get ready to do homework assignments: one weekly discussion and quiz, 2 mid-term exams, and one final exam. 4 projects: one group presentation, two essay papers, and one 5 minute presentation. He is ready to help you if you have any questions.
Seemed efficient at first w/ teaching & lenient w/ due dates. Not sure what happened or if its bcuz of the pandemic, but the way he began lecturing start to sound very monotoned. Began to not grade assignments on time. Forgot about 2nd midterm; move points towards finals. Doesnt give enough hw to balance out the pts from exams. Midterm was hard.
All of the quizzes, midterms, finals are based on example scenarios of the terms that were taught from the lectures. Id advise to keep asking about scenario examples even though he already gave some. Inefficient. Sounds very monotoned when lecturing as if hes reading off his lecture notes
Mr. Kwong was one of the best professors I had. He comes to class very prepared. Very lenient. He teaches not to test your capacity but he aims to impart his knowledge to his students. He is willing to give so much of his time for whatever concerns you have. I am looking forward to attending more of his classes in the future.
amazing teacher!! took his online course from august to december and it was very easy. i didnt have a textbook for the course bc i couldnt afford it at the time but i managed to have an A the entire class. he gives great feedback and his lecture videos are actually really helpful. the zooms were mostly us discussing the topic 4 the week.
Professor Kwong is always there for his students, his classes are fun and light. There is a lot of peer learning as well. Always a pleasure to have him as a Teacher, he is great person as well!
I've taken Professor Kwong's classes three times already. The topics discussed in class are always really helpful and can be applied in real life situations. I learned so much taking his classes! He provides a lot of feedback and answers questions thoroughly. He is very helpful and caring when it comes to his students. He wants everyone to succeed
Apart from being a great teacher, Professor kwong is a lovely human being! He is always there for his students. He is very accommodating when it comes to submission dates. He gives you some great feedbacks. I would recommend everyone to take classes with him! I have taken two classes with him and already enrolled for third.
This is my first class with Prof. Kwong and I have learnt a lot from his lectures. He gives exercises in class for students to understand the concepts better especially for someone who is new to the subject. His break out rooms were very helpful to connect with classmates and it allowed us to get eachothers perspective on the same subject.
Professor Kwong is very helpful during pandemic time. He helped us by giving more time to submit assignments. In case of any difficulty, professor kwong used to guide us. If possible, I am going to take more classes with professor kwong.
Professor Kwong is really helpful and caring! I have taken his classes for three years now and I truly enjoy learning from him. He is really caring and understanding.

Very attentive and Patient , and make sure everybody is involved.
professor willy is really helpful. Always I received immediate reply from his side on email. he always ready to help.
Prof. Kwong really cares about his students and their success. This is my second class he's taught and they keep getting better. He helps manage your work load and is readily available to answer any questions you may have. Assignments are straightforward. Show up to class, participate, and you will get the grade you earn.
Took the time to make videos for each lecture, to give feedback on every assignment, to answer all questions during class
Professor Kwong is great! He always gets back to you on time and he is very informative and he makes things easy to understand if you need any type of help.
Professor Kwong does his best to involve the class and keep it exciting. He has various methods of including all the students. Over all he is a good teacher.
Great Teacher. Always ready to help.
Overall he is good. The only area of improvement is if he starts giving clear instructions on assignments in advance.
I took this class for the spring semester during the pandemic. He reminds us to utilize the school resources such as the food assistance and other school events going on. The online course is a bit lecture heavy, but it's mostly multiple (15 minutes at most) prerecorded videos. This semester was open book quizzes, he is very fair.

The Professor will record the assignments to be done in a video in advance to write the assignment. Every time the assignment Professor will comment on the work to tell me what is good or need to be improved.
Overall a good professor but needs more instructions from him for the assignment in advance
Took a lot of time to make sure he gave feedback on every assignment and make sure students understood what to do every week

Professor is simply great at everything.
I came into Professor Kwong's class very worried because other students had mentioned he is very strict and his classes are difficult.

I took 4 classes with him. I recommend every one if you want to learn more take Mr. Willy Kwong classes. He is very down to earth very kind person.
Professor Kwong is really nice, but he's not a very good Professor. His exams are impossible, half of the terms on it are ones he has never even said out loud before. He is far more concerned with food than he is with preparing you for his difficult exams. He is a difficult grader but he curves exams (bc everyone fails). Lots of essays too !
He's overall a great Professor, very thorough and helpful with all his students.
Prof. Kwong is one of the best professors Ive had. I have learned so much from him and he works so hard in preparing all his lectures so students will learn so much before the semester ends. Very considerate. You will not fail in his subject because he will help you pass for as long as you do your part as a student.
What a great class abd fabulous professor
Professor Kwong is amazing. He posts lectures well in advance and so that we can review them before class. Gives very detailed feedback on all the assignments.
Awesome teacher!

Do not take two classes of his at the same time you will feel like you will be overwhelmed but he is great support so if anything comes up please let him know! very nice and kind! hands-on material!
Professor Kuang's class has very detailed content. There are many opportunities for students to learn from each other. Professor's specific comments helped me greatly and guided me in the right direction. Thank you so much, Professor!
Professor Kwong is one of the few professors I could say that actually cares about his students and teaches them how to be effective educators as well as learners too. It was a joy taking his classes.
The professors assignments are simple and clear, enjoyed learning! Professor provides template with all writing assignments, very helpful. Students are given lots of time till assignments are due.
Professor Willy Kong is caring, respected and hilarious person.
One of the best classes I have ever taken in Mission. This professor will go above and beyond to help pass the semester.
Its so wonderful interacting and hearing your lectures. Very interactive , reflective. a true joy !
Learned a lot from this class. The professor is always willing to help and responds quickly. Homework isn't bad if you watch the lecture videos, pay attention, and read the book. I've taken a couple of classes with him and they've all been great.
Professor Kwong is understanding and would ask for feedback whenever he gets a chance. He appreciates the hard work put in the class by the student. His lectures are interesting and he gives extra time to students who ask for it.
He is nice and cares for the well being of the student. Read the instructions of the assignments clearly and ask questions. He answers questions on emails and usually responds very quickly. He is only a tough grader when the student does not give what is asked in the assignments.
Professor Kwong cares for the well being of the students. He is there for support whenever a student needs it and responds to emails quickly. His teaching style is good and if one does whatever is asked in the assignment, he would give full marks. Read the instructions clearly and ask questions when in doubt.
Great professor, and gives thorough and good feedback.
Definitely, a teacher from whom you can acquire a lot of knowledge.
Probably the most passionate professor I've met. He really wants his students to succeed.
Well organized class, clear instructions to do assignments and projects, share lecture materials, make class lively with interactive discussions, shares knowledge, respect our opinion, provide valuable feed back. You are Awesome Prof. Kwong :) Thank you, Sireesha Y
Hes a great professor! He lectures very well, and expects his students to return the favor by putting in the work. He expects you to be on time and he responds to emails quite promptly. Youll learn a ton from him if you put in the effort.
He's a good professor and I enjoy taking his course!
He is antes awesome teacher.
Prof. Kwongs classes are interesting. He is good at lecturing without boring. He makes us work harder and tough grader too..
Mr. Kwong is a great professor. I've taken several class from him and overall my experience was great. He is very heavy on discussions and not heavy on lectures because he believes it is important to dialogue and allow his students to work together and have a meaningful discussion about the topic. He is flexible and understanding.
He is always ready to help and gives feedback which is very encouraging.
Professor Kwong is a great professor who truly wants you, as a student and as a person, to succeed. He combined discussions and lectures together because he prefers students to converse and hear all of our different or similar ideas. Overall, he is a great professor and human being. I enjoyed taking this class with him.
Professor Kwong focuses a lot on collaboration between students. His class is all about learning between each other and most work is able to be taken in class. I would recommend taking him if you like a natural teaching and he is a professor with a lot of knowledge.
Great teacher participating is important, he gives a great feed-back . Excellent teacher!
Professor Kwong is one of the best professors I have ever had. The organization and layout of the class is fantastic. He is open to assistance, gives excellent feedback, and is super approachable. Seriously, if you do not get an A in this class, you are just not participating. All assignments are laid out well, deadlines clear. He is just awesome!
Class/ assignments it's okay. But I don't enjoy his teaching or his class. Unfortunately I have to take classes with him again.
Great teacher, stay on task with assignments and very flexible
He is funny
Take CHD015 be ready to write observations. Once you follow the instructions you will be fine. Heavy HW.
Flexible. Provides insightful comments on grading. Very funny and chill. There are lots of assignments but all are very informational and useful to learn from. Overall, fun class!
Professor Kwong is pretty flexible with offering extensions on assignments. Pushes you to do your best in class , and explains assignments clear and detailed.
the professor is an excellent professor , he always supports the students and cares. He is funny and makes the class interesting.
Knowledgeable, accommodate requests, respects everyone in the classroom.
Overall, Professor Kwong is pretty cool. He keeps class engaging and cares deeply about his students. The pacing of the class was a little off (explaining the same thing over and over) but he made sure everyone understood the material before we moved on. His online classes can be lecture heavy. I highly recommend taking Professor Kwong in person.
By teacher and classmates introduce to me.
Excellent professor
Professor Kwong is very dedicated to his students and really wants to make sure he supports his students to learn the material.
Professor Kwong is fun and very caring. He want students to be well and want his students to succeed. He is always asking the classroom how its going and how we are doing. The class is not easy it does require allot of time for the observations but you will benefit allot from it.
He was an amazing teacher, I learned a lot in that class. We didn't have any exams it was all projects and assignments. Attendance is very important for your grade. His explanation for a problem was amazingly simple. I would so recommend taking this teacher 100%. I will be taking one of his other classes in the future.
He is amazing with student makes the class fun and interesting you will learn but at the same time you will enjoy the class. Thank you professor Willy
He is an awesome teacher to have. His lectures or so simple and to the point. If you are honest and ask for more time on homework assignments and projects, he will give you more time. Homework in this class is fairly easy. You are writing on paper just as much as you are typing on your computer. I 100% recommend taking this teacher.
He is a great professor and is very understanding! He tries different teaching styles which is nice. Only thing I would say is that for the final in his observation class, it's a parent teacher conference but he doesn't really explain or spend a lot of time talking about it which made me feel unprepared.
Professor Kwong was very helpful and his lectures were awesome. He was very helpful clarifying any questions I had. Looking forward to seeing him in Fall
My original teacher was Christiana but changed to willy in the middle of the class, I did not adapt to his way of teaching, he was very unclear, the homework has nothing to do with the content of the lecture
I really want to take this class again because I really enjoy it I need the code for this class
Textbook is free and can be accessed online, only a few assignments which are 4 papers written about different age groups in life and due dates spread out through the semester. You get to observe and interview children. Exam focus on reading material in textbook more than lectures, you get to make a 1 page front back cheat sheet for exam.
I enjoyed this professor and this class. While this class is paper-heavy, the professor is caring and willing to provide extensions or accommodations if needed. The professor knows a lot about the topic and teaches in a way that makes sense. He is understanding and makes sure everyone has a positive experience.
This professor is nice and accommodating for people who need extra time and need that extra support. He lets us have notes for the exams that we can use and is sometimes helpful. The grading can be hard but you can always do revision and do better. I would take his class again.
- very flexible when working with student's schedules - easy-going & spontaneous lectures - Lot of writing so prepare in advanced - tests includes lecture notes AND textbook material (study both)
Professor Wong is a nice professor. His lecture is well-prepared and easy to follow. There are 4 essays, 1 midterm and 1 final for this class. There are also class activities during the lecture. He will take attendance. However, he is a tough grader.
Mr. Kong is a very caring teacher. He always tried to help us, giving us advices, and commentaries on given assignments. He provides and promotes a respectful enviroment in the classroom. He also implement secondary resources to inforce the lessons. Definatelly I'll take another class with him.
very steady and easy class, just do what is asked to too and follow the rubric for observation papers and you'll be fine. Even though some lectures are long, he try to keep you involved and connected overall the course gets easier as it goes. Attendance though is more mandatory and being on time. Overall good teacher and highly recommond
lots of lectures, few assignments that are actually graded and a lot of group/partner projects which are mainly posters that are not graded. He is not clear on what he is teaching. He reads exactly what is on the sides and doesn't expand.
It felt like my assignments were never enough for him. He would tell me to be more detailed even though i would and he would just grade really hard. His lectures were very unprofessional and he wouldn't really answer questions students would ask him. The lectures were also very obvious information and he would read them directly off the board.
I was inspired when Professor Wong said "Before we became student we first became human". This words inspire me for not being so feel pressured in the class because this kind of teacher knows how to understand the life of a student and willing to help. I like how he intermix the class during group activity for us to get to know more our classmates.
I'd love to take his classes again because of his great support, and good feedback for his students to keep improving and striving throughout the course. What he taught his students not only applies to his classes but also to other aspects of his student's life. He always tries to make sure everyone in the class becomes more engaged in class.
Professor Willy is very nice, he shows great enthusiasm in his lectures. He always try to do his best and motivate students not to give up!
I love that he understands how much mental health matters and is very lenient. This class is very lecture oriented so it is very important to take notes of what is being said. If you're the type who isn't very good with papers you should use all available resources and plan accordingly as to not fall behind.
The professor has a thorough knowledge of the course and always gives good examples to make it understandable and if you have any questions then answer it.
A professor who really cares about the students. There should be more professors like him.
After cancer treatment, having a chemo brain is a real thing but his passion of teaching is infectious, engaging and I was able to learn. FFN program was a path to meet a great professor who encourages and challenges me to reach my full potential. Thank you so much Professor Willy Kwong. You have helped so many and please continue to be so awesome!
Super chill guy! He really wants you to succeed and gives lots of extension and extra credit opportunities. Just be sure you're ready to do child observations every month or so (I took this in the fall), but he's not a harsh grader at all and not too much reading in the textbook (free btw!). Would recommend to anyone for sure
Don't miss any of his classes or he will be upset. He is not the best at teaching, just reads presentations quick and talks about his life. He does not care about your personal life, if you can't turn something in or can't make it to class, he will not help you out. He can be nice, but not understanding, I guess he forgot how it is to be student.
Hes a great teacher. Just pay attention in class and reach out to him beforehand and hes super flexible if hes told things ahead of time.
Professor Willy is a great guy who really cares about his students. The class is lecture-heavy but manageable if you stay on top of the work, especially the monthly child observations. I found Unstuck study and the free textbook super helpful for staying ahead. Definitely worth taking!
10/10 professor. great guy, actually cares for you and your real life and understands that school is important but it should not over take your life. awesome person he is the best ever ever. only thing is he is picky with his observations so do them just as he asked; will extend assignments if needed. he's the best!!!!!
If you have time to commit to only fulfilling his class requirements, then by all means, take all the classes that he offers. And, if you have special needs, he will automatically give you support like you have never seen! Plus, he goes really fast in the class, and it's very easy to fall behind while he's lecturing. Never again!
