Hard to understand the lectures at the beginning. However, she is very friendly with students. You can talk with her whenever you have issues, she will listen and change her way accordingly.

Comment:
Very friendly and cares a lot about her teaching, but isn't a very good teacher. She's impossible to understand in person and in writing. Assignments are full of spelling mistakes. The textbook, which she wrote, is full of spelling and grammar mistakes and is difficult to interpret.

I never want to see the Gong show again. As a person, I guess she's ok. As a teacher, well, my motivation to pass was to never take a course with her again.

She's really nice and helpful if you try to approach her. Her exams are easy if you go to class and take notes. Great personality - she tells jokes where nobody get her punchline and she just LOL:D Cons: lectures are quite confusing. She assumes that you still remember the basics in F.T. and probability theory before coming to class.

Very helpful if you attend class regularly. Very hard to understand since she has an thick accent. If you attend her class regularly, you'll begin to understand her. Her notes and class examples are very important for exams. She gives hints if you be nice to her. Exams are easy if you know all class examples. Did i mention very helpful?

Good prof who knows her stuff. English is a bit weak but midterms and finals are straightforward. Put in some effort and you'll do fine.

The accent is difficult but once you get used to it (and most of us did), you realize that she really knows her stuff and really cares about teaching. Just make the extra effort and you'll be fine.

Comment:
Basically had to teach myself the whole course. She tries hard to answer questions and help you out, but most of the time it fails miserably because she can't understand your question and you can't understand her answer. If she lectured in Chinese, atleast 1/2 of the class would understand.

Comment:
"What did she just say?" <5 shrugs from surrounding people>. "That's it I'm outta here!" Be prepared to learn the class yourself cause she's almost completely unintelligable and sounds like a cat. When she says 'tau' she ACTUALLY sounds like she's meowing. Can be funny sometimes.

Comment:
Unless your asian be prepared to learn this class on your own with just the couse notes and homework problems. Her accent is just too hard to understand, the majority of the time u'll be trying to figure out what she said instead of focusing on the material...p.s. avoid the Gong Show at all costs...
