Hands down the most amazing professor I've ever had. She's kind, compassionate, supportive, understanding, and most of all, incredibly intelligent. I loved every class I've taken with her and will go out of my way to take a class of hers again.

Comment:
Fantastic professor, unique teaching style. She's very personal, very insightful, very intuitive, very hands on. Not for everyone, she doesn't art direct, she won't crit that way, and you can't rely on her to structure everything for you. You have to be able to just knuckle down and do stuff on your own. In the end she looks more at concept.

The class is easy if you try. Put in the effort and you'll be rewarded. She's passive when it comes to students not completing assignments and not meeting deadlines, which is frustrating because it's a studio class and group critiques are important. Projects dragged and critiques fizzled because students didn't bring in their work.

Comment:
Yoon Soo was a great professor. Some people don't like how free the class is, as she allows you to express yourself instead of art directing, which I like. She's super nice, super funny, and she helped me to break out of my comfort zone. She's more about expression than the technical stuff, but she definitely knows what she's doing.

This class was difficult, but if you try, you will pass. The effort has to be there in order to get the grade though.

Comment:
Yoon Soo Lee was one of my favorite professors my freshman year. She was hilarious, and thoughtful towards the class always offering help and insight. Yes, she's a hard grader but she drives you toward your best product. She never told me how to change my own design, I did it all on my own giving me my own work.

Comment:
Reads way too much into design, prefers meaning over practicality. Very strict, adds up lates to count as whole absences! She beats your design until it's the way she wants to see it, and totally takes out the personal aspect of designing. Like most professors at umass ,cant hack it in the design world and takes her frustrations out on students

Comment:
Intelligent woman and loves using analogies to explain things. But very strict and allows little room for personal growth. Yeah, strictness is part of the real world, but she makes it difficult to storm up ideas. She also makes it difficult to improve on your work, her crits are very detail-oriented and not attacking habitual design issues.
