Comment:
His english is not very good but he really loves the material he teaches. If you have a problem understanding him just ask he will always say it again or explain it differently. He is in his office a lot and he is always willing to help you with your homework or whatever you are struggling with. His tests are difficult but fair.

Dr. Zhu is a great teacher. I have had him for three classes, he's a little hard to understand, but he knows his stuff. If your interested in materials science you will learn alot.

He is not fluent in English and tries to rush you away when you have a question to ask. One of the ME's worst teachers. Take anyone else but him!

Comment:
VERY hard to understand. Once you get his language down, it's not TOO bad I guess. He still grades pretty harsh though taking off big points for very small errors. Mostly memorization of the text and his lectures and the problems on the tests are not covered very well.

Comment:
Awful teacher. Would never take him again. Counted off huge for very minor mistakes and made the same mistakes working the problems in class. Counted off 5 points for getting 340 instead of between 360-400 when estimating from a graph. Counted off on not getting his graph answers all the time.

Comment:
Not a very good teacher. There is an obvious language barrier. He words his questions quite oddly, and since he finally realized people have copies of tests, he is making all new tests by himself. He is slow at returning tests and grades quite harshly on small stuff. Also, heatstrument, is that like the french horn?

Not clear about material that will be covered on tests. His lectures consisted of power point presentations with no examples. Words questions in a confusing way. Definitely would not take him again.

You have to memorize everything! Confusing way of writing questions in tests. Can make tricky questions on Final. I would not take him again.

Helpful teacher. Cares for his students. IF you are not clear with what is taught in the class, go talk to him. He will help you out. Goes out of the way to make photocopies for students. Nice guy!!!
