Comment:
Loved Julie for this class (Linear Regression Analysis). Does not give much practice material but if you study the notes and assigned problems the quizzes and midterm are fine. Assignments are long but fairly easy, she gives all the necessary code for using R so its fine if you have little to no experience with it!

I would strongly recommend avoiding this prof. Her English is very bad and lectures are nearly impossible to follow. The teaching is dry and disordered. Reading the textbook and doing practice problems is a 'must' if you want to pass.

Sweet lady but does not explain material well at all, better off reading the textbook, our average was a C and about 40% of the class needs to retake it as it's a program requirement for most. Further, did all the material given for review and was still blindsided on the final.

Comment:
Although Zhou is an incredibly lovely and intelligent prof, her lectures are impossible to follow and really hard to understand. She tends to stumble over concepts and it always left me confused. I had to basically learn the entire course from the textbook. If you go ask for help though, she's very good one-on-one.

Comment:
Her lectures are incredibly boring. Her voice is boring. She did not make me enjoy Stats. I did, however, do well in her course... surprisingly better than in Stats 260 with a prof I enjoyed much more. Her exams are not hard, almost identical to practice problems, so do those, do them well, and you'll have no problem passing.

mm.. she is an alright teacher. Even though I might not completely understand her verbally, her notes are very clear. Assignments, midterms and final are fair. Just try to pay attention and not to fell asleep, you will be ok.

Horrible Professor - does not facilitate any communication from students in her class. It's impossible to ask questions and get clarification... get another prof if you can, because you will be totally alone learning stats if you're in her class.

Unable to present the material in a clear and understandable way. Very helpful, but acoustically straining.

I think that people are too hard on Dr. Zhou; it is hard to make statistics interesting. As long as you pay attention in class, and are willing to put in the time to learn the material, then you should do well.

You cannot understand her lectures. She does not listen to any sort of suggestions. She is the worst prof I have ever had. Our last midterm average was 50%
