Comment:
Horrible professor. He stutters a lot and has broken sentences so it's extremely difficult to understand him most of the time. He arrived 5-10 minutes late almost every day, and his assignments were unclear. Lost marks because I was missing something on my assignment that wasn't specified in his handout. Also made numerous mistakes on the final

Comment:
His explanations are unclear, he gives way too few practical examples (and the ones he gives are full of mistakeserrors), he is unapproachable, his handwriting is completely illegible, and he gives no guidance on projects. The course is an easy A+ with the textbook, but his teaching was no help at all.

You can skip 90% percent of Guo's class except you MUST show up in order to get the exam review sheets, or as my friends and I call them, the MAGIC SHEET. He will hand them out a week before a midterm/final exam and if you memorize/learn these magic sheet, you are GUARANTEED an A in the class.

Comment:
Messy writing, difficult to understand. He doesn't like it when students take notes so he doesn't give you enough time to even try to copy anything down. Very nice guy, tries to learn everyone's names. But also will announce to the class what mark you got on the midterms. Goes over old exams for reviews - very important to attend those reviews.

Comment:
He is an exceptionally nice guy with a genuine interest in his students. His lectures are exceptionally difficult to follow, but I think he himself understands that and makes up for it by making himself easily accessible and approach able for assistance.

his english isnt clear, but he does have a humorous side sometimes in class, but he makes the course that is supposedly hard if taught by other professors fairly easy. the review is the key and once in a lifetime math course that memorizing is all u need

Comment:
Not very clear and doesn't understand questions or answer them clearly.The Chinese students probably had it easier coz they could ask in Chinese and he'd understand them better not to say he was biased or anything like that.Good and understanding guy though even funny.Not ever taking another class with him though

I've had 2 classes with him, this one being my 1st one. He isn't very clear, nor is he very helpful, but he's an extremely nice guy, and also sometimes funny. His mistakes are part of his charm. His classes are relatively easy. I highly recommend him, if only to get a good grade in one of his classes.

Comment:
Aside from being extremely difficult to understand, he is rather incompetent! He writes things that are clearly wrong; this ranges from solutions to math questions, to the date of our midterm!! I've been using the textbook instead of going to lectures, but now he has started teaching us sections that aren't listed on the syllabus! Whaaaat?!

Comment:
Guo is indeed smart and knows the subject well, but teaching is definitely not his thing. He is incomprehensible, makes tons of mistakes in class, and can't answer even the most basic of questions. Attend the review sections and skip the rest - out of 60cr hrs MATH courses, this is hands down the worst professor I have had.

Comment:
Probably the worst professor I've ever had. He's nice, approachable and enthusiastic about the subject, but his english is horrible, writing isn't much better, can't properly answer students questions, and fumbles the material often. On the bright side, it's easy stuff and his pre-exam reviews were helpful.

Comment:
Worst math professor I have had at the U of M. Hard to understand and makes mistakes in class and when marking exams. I appealed my grade and it took three months to get back and it was changed because he marked my exam wrong. If you can avoid it I would suggest taking a different professor for your class. Korykowski is the best for Math!

Doesn't care at all about students; doesn't want to help them; can't speak proper english. It's SIG-MA not schikima, and it's cal-cu-lus not kegis.
