Comment:

Good professor teaching tough class; does decent job explaining concepts. Accent makes it hard to understand him at times, but it's not bad. Doesn't take attendance. Study hw questions to pass exams. Uses own notes; book is useless. Can be rude when answering questions. Keep exam/hw scores up; final is tough & worth 50%. Have to work to pass. :)

Comment:

Dr. Sun is a very kind, caring instructor. I emailed him many times asking for him to check my proofs and he would promptly email back, even on weekends, and give me great feedback. His lectures are very helpful and he articulates most concepts with exceptional clarity; his provided lecture notes are also very helpful. I strongly recommend him.

Comment:

Dr. Sun is an excellent professor for quickly explaining the theory for the subject. If you want to know all the details of the theory of diff eq, you are going to need to read the book and outside materials. Overall, Dr. Sun's class is easy as long as you attend class.

good guy but not a very good teacher. he solves all the solved examples from the book again in class and nothing new. didn't have a real test review before the test. just told us to go over certain examples from the book. tests were not really hard. collects homewok every week religiously

His Teaching did not follow along with Homework. Tests were very hard, even with a page of notes allowed. Final was worth 40 percent of grade and was very hard. Not recommended

Comment:

He knows his stuff - just don't ask him any questions during class. He'll scoff at you like you're stupid. Not only that, but he'll ask, "why don't you know this already?" or "you should of known this by now" right in front of everybody. He's alright otherwise.

Comment:

His first two tests were pretty basic and straight forward. However, when it came to the final, he basically just threw it at us without any real review. Hes pretty cocky for a teacher. Ask a question and he will pretty much call you out. May revise easiness rating pending on final grade.

Dr. Sun was a did a good job, he knows his stuff, sometimes will skip thru stuff, but if you ask he will go back thru. He is a pretty easy grader, and his tests are for the most part over the basics. I would reccomend him to anyone for diff eq

He's very organized. Listen to him, take notes, and you will do very well. There are people enrolled in other Differential classes coming in to Dr. Sun's lecture for clarification!

I totally had 4 tests in this class. In the first 3 I got an A+ and I got like 50% in the last one(final), but this teacher was very helpful and he gave an A in the course. Writes very very small but very helpful. I would recomend him for cacl 2. He even gives extra credit in every test!!

OK, I understand that Calc 2 is supposed to be difficult, but just understanding what Sun was saying was a challenge for me. He writes very small on the blackboard, so if you have glasses - bring them to class.
