Comment:

Hey guess what? She has taken "awful" to a brand new level. Worst professor you can meet @ York. Doesn't seem to care about anything, really unprofessional, really subjective when grading, and really terrible attitude. Drop out of her class at all cost! Otherwise your GPA will hurt! unless you can get her to like you personally.

Comment:

Do Not Ever Take Her Course!!! It's a disaster! She expects you to know the answer to every single random question she asks during class and would still give you a really bad mark if you cannot find a way to get her to like you personally. Doesn't mark fairly, doesn't have a clear mind, just don't take her courses if you need a high mark.

Comment:

It's actually really hard to describe her teaching style, 'cause it cannot get worse!! Assigns marks randomly, tests are irrelevant to the course, she even allows her favourite student to cheat on the exam!!! nice? or unfair? I'd rather not say. If you cannot make your way to become her favourite, don't take her courses.

The Professor address issues irrelevant to the course, while being objective in her opinions she also brings negative emotions towards students on a personal level. For those who shared a different opinion with her, wait and see!

Comment:

Great prof. Comes to class with prepared material to supplement homework assignments. Really goes the extra mile into making the grammar clear. Really nice and kind hearted woman as well. Her anecdotes make class seem fun. It sucks that we're stuck in a cramped, over heated room, but she makes the best of it!

Going to her class might not be very helpful of learning something, unless ur very into the chinese literature otherwise you'll find it's a very boring course. The prof herself is nice though, always with the smile, the test is not easy actually.

Very good teacher although monotonous in instruction methods. I believe her teachings would be easier to understand if she would change the format of her classes occassionally.
