Comment:
Her class is fun, informative and interesting. This is my first IS class and I learned a lot from it. I especially appreciate the game she designed and the videos she played to help us understand otherwise very dry IS concepts. She is also well-prepared for the class and very helpful outside the classroom.

Comment:
most of these reviews are her rating herself. as a student who knows her, this is definitely something she would do. notice the horrible reviews, followed by reviews which are suddenly in proper grammar and start with "Professor Zhu", which praise, and are written during times students wouldn't normally rate professors (not at end of semester)

Comment:
Sincerely the laziest and WORST instructor I have had. Has very little understanding of material and was unprepared for class. She spent a lot of time on simple slides and skipped difficult material completely. Showed up 45 minutes late for one class and instead of catching up on missed material she spent an hour doing games and watching youtube.

Comment:
She does not teach well for sure. She uses some real life examples that are totally not correlated with the content of the course. And she left what she had to teach in the class right before the exam. The material was so complicated that you could not possibly get it. She is the worst among all CORE professors.

Comment:
She is one of the nicest teachers. The way she talks, she sounds like she does not know the material herself. She talks about the same thing for most of the class. Its a class about computer systems although she rarely allows us to use our computers in class! She sometimes treats us with online games, which are all pointless.

Definitely one of the best professors I have in terms of helpfulness and the way how a difficult class is conducted for clarity. She makes the boring material interesting and easy to understand...

Professor Zhu is very kind. She helps you narrow what will be in the exam. And when I went to her office to ask her about the CORE project, she was really nice.

Comment:
This class is a challenge, but Zhu is one of the best of the bunch to get. Her accent isn't that strong and she encourages everyone to participate in class. However, unlike the other teachers who tell you exactly what will be on the test, she gives vague descriptions of what to know. Pay attention in class and print out the slides before class.

Prof. Zhu seems to be a good teacher. Her lectures are... well, they're lectures. What do you expect? She helped us build this website: http://b2coreteam3.com . That was pretty cool, I guess.

Nice professor tells you basically what you need to know, but has a very hard time translating her thoughts due to an obviuos accent. Generally, the class is pretty boring wouldn't attend it if it wasn't mandatory. Shows you a cute video of her son if you ask her, during before midterms/finals.

Bin Zhu is not a good professor. She is hard to follow, her lectures are boring. Do the case readings, the other readings are unnecessary.

Eh, she's ok. I've definitely had way better teachers but she's extremely nice. Frankly, I like her but I don't feel like I take away anything of importance from her class.

Zhu is a very nice professor and she knows her stuff. She sometimes spends too much time on repetitive, simple concepts rather than on the difficult ones. Otherwise, she's great. She also tells you exactly what to study.

So helpful. I don't know why her ratings are so bad...she is the sweetest lady, and she recognizes that IS can get boring, so she tries to make it more interesting. She is also helpful on exams...she wanted us to do well.
