Comment:

He's often late 5-10 min and would waste another 5-10 min taking about unrelated nonsense like music/potatoes. His quizzes worth 10% are quite easy but his midterms and final (worth 20% each and 40% respectively) are much more difficult than his quizzes. He has a dark sense of humour, but to most he is just unapproachable. 3.7 CGPA and got a C...

Honestly, he is a great person wit humor. He just lacks the ability to connect with students for them to learn the lecture properly. Otherwise, Jae is a great math prof for calculus 1 and 2. I would highly recommend taking him.

I dont know why this insane guys rating is 3 out of 5. Wondering how come he got hired by Langara. Doesnt teach very well but just a tough marker. And extremely hard exams. If u think hes not the worst because of rating, dont trust this rating. Dont waste your money and time to lower your GPA.

Comment:

The materials in his lectures do not match with the level of the course. He teaches tough things and does not give practice questions before the tests. His tests are more difficult than what he teaches. Many students drop his class. Unapproachable and helpless after class hours.

He is the worst math instructor I have known so far at Langara. No kindness, sympathy and empathy. A lot of students drop his classes. Rude and unapproachable. Avoid him at any cost.

You will start as a ripe tomato then you will get grilled and have the water contents removed to reduce the acidity in you. Basically you are going to be a grilled tomato at the end of the semester :)

Worst instructor ever. Don't even consider taking his class because you will be ended up dropping out. I can tell that he likes math but not his students. He is a sarcastic person, so beware.

Comment:

Lmao this guy is hilarious. If you dont know calc then he will show you de way. Lol, lets be real here. He is a terrible lecturer, but I dont mind his quizzes and tests. Format makes it easy he tells you whats going to be on the midterm beforehand. Just read your textbook and practise and youll easily pass.

Comment:

He loves math but not teaching (VERY unapproachable). Lectures either correlate with homework/quiz/test or not at all. First midterm class average was 47%. I lasted 1.5 months in his class before dropping. I swallowed my feelings every time I visited his office (5 times in total), and each time he would say something negative to me. Choose wisely.

Comment:

It's complicated. Jang has a passion for math, but perhaps not teaching. He can be intimidating, and rude, but I suspect that's not his fault. If you're not afraid to participate in class or see him after class, even though he is *very* unapproachable (I couldn't do it), you'll find him just fine. His rigorous methods can help those in sciences.

over 2/3 students dropped out. This guy likes to talk about his life and how he's a genius for creating stupid techniques. Doesnt assign questions so you dont know what to expect on midterms. I got perfect on all the quizzes but got 40% on the midterm

Comment:

Honestly Jae does teach but only teachers the easy exercises and expects you to know the harder questions he puts on the final. He tells the students to participate but if you say the wrong answer he makes fun of you. Not approachable and final was so hard, it was the reason I failed this course.

Comment:

Probably one of the worst math teachers at Langara. He was the only teacher for math 1153 so I had to take him but if you have a choice, PLEASE AVOID AT ALL COSTS. The midyear was decent but the final was extremley difficult you would rather not take it cause you already know you're gonna fail. Half the class didn't even pass the course. AVOID!!!!!

Comment:

Marks come solely from quizzes, midterms, and final. No credit for textbook work, work on Web Assign, or participation/attendance. He is consistently 5-10 minutes late for class and goes off topic easily. He makes unethical and disrespectful 'jokes' about students. Avoid him at all costs. He makes you feel stupid which a professor should never do.

He is a good teacher but not so patient. He prefers spending his time on his own research instead of his new students.

Comment:

He's organized and chooses good exercises as examples to explain the content. He helps with hints about exercises that will be on quizzes He is frequently late even for Midterms. He is such a not approchable person. Everybody stays quite in his class, because he's really rude. He gets angry for no reason and he teachs the board not students.
