Comment:
Jerry Tien was my ventilation instructor about 25 years ago. Very tough, very intelligent man. If you whine about his classes you will hate working for me. Buck up and pay attention to what he is really saying.

Comment:
Reads directly from slides. At least one mistake per lecture on slide that never gets fixed. If you get upset once he thinks you are forever hostile towards him. Has a poor grading policy 1 point for a correct answer and -3 points for an incorrect answer. Also tries to correct English in assignments to Engrish. (Broken English)

Comment:
I had Jerry Tien for a basic engineering class (Statics) in 1991. He was tough but with his encouragement, I finally made it through Statics. You get out of his class what you put into it, so be ready to work hard. Like a previous posting stated, his door was always open and he was very patient and helpful. A great guy all around.

Comment:
Reads from slides too much, and doesn't venture any further than these. Cannot explain problems very well and often ends up making the students more confused than when they started. However,he has good intentions and is very helpful if asked specifically.

He needs to explain the homework in class. Go over the quizes. If we don't understand how to do them and he never goes over it, then there is no way to improve.

He makes you learn the material and work for the grade. If some didnt expect a challenge then dont work in my mine. Need help, his door is always open and can be helpful if asked. Challenging teacher.
