Couldn't understand his English, and taught 2 different courses at the same time (Java) - so I didn't get good grades. I had to repeat C++ (majoring in CIS) because of him. Thanks to Velda James, she's way better than Eagle (his name).

I was impressed with the clarity of his lessons. He takes the quizzes from the homework and the tests from the quizzes, only changing the numbers so you don't memorize them.

He is decent guy and actively tries to help his students learn. His test are pretty straightforward ;however, he dose have a habit of marking down anything that is not done exactly the way he dose it. Word of advice, The first exam is the hardest in the class so study, Even if you disagree with his notion just do it and save yourself points. GL

If you have trouble with math like me, then this is the teacher for you. I suck at tests but did all my homework and passed with a high B. Open note quiz, take home quiz. I scored near perfect on all of them. Plus he is super nice. He has a high rating for a reason.

There are 12 quizzes, 2 tests, 1 group project and the final exam. The grading is based on a point system. The professor is fair in grading on the tests, tries to give you credit in trying. However, the biggest issue I had was HOW he prepared us for the tests. The study guides don't correlate to what is on the actual test.

He is so funny, the only thing is his accent is hard to understand so ask questions and go to his office hours, he is so helpful

Do not take this professor unless you are ready to teach yourself the whole course. He speaks very low and isn't clear about the topic. He assumes that you already know the material and the course feels like it should be review. Lots of homework. The only good thing is he gives partial points on tests which help and take home quizzes.

Great Professor! Took him during the winter session, and it was totally manageable with my other class. 12 quizzes(some are take home), 2 tests, and a final. He pretty much gives you the questions on the tests and finals during the review.

Professor Zhuang is awesome. I took him in the Winter 2016 semester and I think I'm the only person that loves trig now. He is very helpful, if you have questions ask as his accent can be difficult to understand. He gives moderate amounts of homework, but he goes over homework problems in lecture. 12 quizzes (some take home) 2 test and a final.

If you do all thw homework and study you will pass his class. Math is not my best subject at all. He would stay after class to help me with any problems i had. He is an awsome teach and you can tell he loves his students. I would recommend him for anyone.

This is my 2nd time taking this course due to math not being my best subject & my professor not being helpful, at all. Professor Zhuang was an AMAZING professor. He tells you on the first day what you will be doing & he is extremely generous when it comes to points & offers extra time to all students who need more help. 10/10 would recommend.

Taking his class was the best class I have taken at Citrus, you could tell he genuinely cares for his students and for us to learn the lessons. He helps you a lot and he is really funny and just over all a great prof. Most quizzes are take home and he has a lot of after class help.

I have always struggled in math but he explains the material very well and gives several example problems to help you understand. He makes you feel comfortable enough to ask questions and has no problem explaining it again. He gives partial points in tests which helps out your grade a lot. He also gives extra credit opportunities which also helps.

He was a great professor! Took him for sats over the summer and he was very caring and great at explaining everything. He wants his students to pass and is more than willing to help you understand all the material. HW is due on the day of exams keep up with it as you go its a lot. Exams are based on HW and Quizzes (12 total), 3 exams! Not hard!

I took this class in a winter semester. Zhuang is a very pleasant man and excellent teacher. He administered several take home quizzes and tests were simple. Only downside was that he was often late to class.

I have enjoyed taking Prof Zhuang for both Trig and Pre-Cal. His classes are structured for every student to get an A, its all a matter of effort. He keeps a lighthearted atmosphere in the class by inserting little quips and jokes into his lecture, and will take the time to spend extra time helping you understand if you ask questions.

Best math professor I've had yet. I had the pleasure of having him for both Trig and Pre-Calculus just because I was so certain that I wanted to continue learning under him. He presents you in class with the exact material you need to know for the tests, and makes class a fantastic time with his relevant stories and jokes. He values good workers.

This professor was good! he always gives you a "special " quiz. He always makes sure the WHOLE class knows what's going on before moving on. HE is a really good professor with motivation and help. I was so intimidated taking the GE stats class considering I always failed math.. , but he made it a walk through the park.
