Comment:

Professor Bingwu Wang is an excellent teacher. He really goes out of his way to make sure you learn and understand and is very flexible. He has a tendency to say "is that right?" after he makes a point (so beware aware of that, but you get used to it) but aside from that he is excellent all-around as a teacher. Would highly recommend this class.

He actually cares about the subject that he is teaching and will do everything in his power to help you understand the concept. He will make jokes, stories and will draw diagrams in order to cement the concepts. Although don't waste your money on the book, you won't ever use it if you take good notes and use khan academy.

He is so nice and funny, I loved taking trig with him. He is very lenient and easygoing, if youre not passing its probably because youre not putting in the effort or youre not asking for help.

Comment:

Homework is assigned but not graded. The textbook doesn't help and is only used for homework. The professor is hard to understand due to accent and will not explain quiz results to you. He doesn't like picture (of board, homework, ect.) When comparing quizzes with other classmates you'll realize you'll have the same answers but different grades.

He really tried to engage us and make it as easy as possible. Sometimes he didnt know how to answer questions but he tries. If youre not a math major and just want to pass, take him. Hes an easy grader!! Attendance helps your grade!

Comment:

I had Wang for Linear Algebra and this time for Calc 3. The class grade depended almost entirely on the midterm exam and the final exam, both of which he allows a cheat sheet for. He even had a review day before the exams and told us EXACTLY what to prepare for. The other third of the grade was from weekly quizzes, the lowest two scores are dropped

Comment:

This is my second time having Wang. I don't love him, but he's the best math prof I've had at EMU. He assigns daily non graded hw from the book, which I never opened once, and I ended up with a B. Weekly quizzes, but he's a super chill grader. As long as you make an effort, you should get a B on most things. One easy semester project.

Allows cheat sheets on the exams, drops the 2 lowest quiz scores (out of 10) and gives a 1% bonus for excellent (every day) attendance. Partial credit all the way. Very wonderful to learn from!

I loved having him as a teacher. He would tell us stories about how certain math came to be and it usually ended up hilarious. Homework was not graded but it correlated closely to the weekly quizzes. He struggled a little but to help students who did not understand but he always had great intentions! Best math professor at EMU.

If you hate math take trig with him. Literally the easiest teacher to take this class with. As long as you do the homework the quizzes are easy. Period.

Comment:

Homework isn't graded or turned in so it is only for practice. There's a quiz every week which counts for most of the grade and the lowest two quiz scores are dropped. For the midterm and final you can bring a cheat sheet. He had a review day before the final and I HEAVILY recommend you go to that he is very clear about what to know for the final.

Comment:

Everyone else explains his grading well. I'll add that he is very boring and it can be hard to focus. He teaches a lot of unnecessary stuff, and will never let you leave early. The class is not hard. It is just hard to stay focused. The book is used for hw but I never did any and did fine. Im taking him again next semester so hes not that bad.

All lectures, weekly quizzes(he drops 2). Cheat sheets on the exams. If you show up every day he takes it for 1% of extra credit. Only grades are quizzes and exams. You have to care to really do well with him.

This was a very difficult course, but he always took the time to make sure you understood the material. Homework was optional, but I highly recommend it since his quizzes are based off the assignments. Overall, if you work hard and seek help, this class isn't going to be too bad

He is great, explains things in multiple ways and can answer the questions asked in different ways until you understand. Homework is optional but is closely related to the weekly quizzes and exams. He is silly and engaging which encourages class participation. Do the homework and ask questions in class and you will do great with the professor.

Comment:

I love this guy, he really wants his students to succeed and he's a funny guy. There's a quiz almost every week and only 2 exams. If you read the book and do homework problems on the stuff you don't understand you should be set for an A. He lets you have a cheat sheet too for the exams.

Great teacher! Easy to follow & understand. Show up, take notes, do the optional hw, and you will pass with an A. Quiz every week, helps you to know material and prepares you for the 2 exams. Funny, when you least expect it. Would take another math class with him as my teacher! EC at the end of semester if you come to class everyday.

One of the best math professors I've ever had. Attendance isn't optional, however if you attend most of his classes, he'll give you extra credit at the end of the semester. Final was lightweight and took half of the period. Real chill prof, will be taking him again in the future.

The best math professor in his field. Makes difficult concepts very easy to understand. Gives homework everyday for practice but also solves it for you next day, do those and you are all set. Extremely intelligent, helpful and knowledgeable. Makes learning easy by the way he teaches. Take him if you want to learn, be good at math & get a good grade
