Guiling Hu CHIN101 Expecting a B+ Anonymous 07/07/2023	I'm taking this class during the summer, and it's definitely intense, but Hu Laoshi provides a lot of study material and practices to help you. She's very understanding of work schedules and when events come up, and she understands that this class is challenging. I would recommend her for CHIN101 definitely!
Guiling Hu CHIN101 Expecting an A- Anonymous 05/01/2023	Hu Laoshi is such a nice teacher. She understands that Chinese is not an easy language to learn and is very understanding. This class is hard but Hu Laoshi makes it manageable. Attendance is mandatory as she grades on it every class. There are a lot of assignments in this class so it is important to manage them accordingly. Go in for office hours if you ever have questions or need help, she is always willing to take the time to help you.
Mei Kong CHIN101 Expecting an A- Anonymous 01/09/2023	All the other reviews are correct, Professor Kong is incredibly sweet! I had no prior experience with the Chinese language, so CHIN 101 was my first time speaking Mandarin, and I feel like I've learned so much in just one semester! The workload IS very very intense, especially for a 100 level class. That being said, the class is also six credits, and that is no joke! Sometimes I felt the workload was a little too much, which is the only reason I'm giving 4 stars instead of 5. Otherwise, Professor Kong is incredibly kind and understanding and does a very good job explaining the language as she teaches! I would recommend her and CHIN 101.
Jungjung Lee-Heitz CHIN101 Expecting an A- Anonymous 01/09/2023	CHIN 101 is not kidding about being 6 credits! That being said, if you're prepared for very intensive workload, CHIN 101 is so rewarding, and Lee Laoshi is very kind and funny. She has high expectations but is also very understanding and will help you out if you come talk to her. Again, sometimes I thought the workload in this class was a little crazy (especially for a 100 level class!), but it is six credits, and I do feel like I've learned a ton of the language in just one semester! Recommend her and recommend the class.
Guiling Hu CHIN101 Expecting an A Anonymous 11/19/2021	Hu laoshi is one of my favorite teachers I've had among all of my education experiences. I was lucky to have a few years of high school level Mandarin before I came into her class, but she is an extremely good teacher and very understand. I had to miss class a number of times and she always let me come and make up my quizzes/work during office hours. She is unbelievably friendly and nice. If you have the opportunity to choose I would highly recommend her as your teacher.
Mei Kong CHIN101 Expecting an A Anonymous 12/11/2018	Incredibly nice woman, and one of the nicest teachers I have ever had. She understands that Chinese is a tough language for native English speakers and grades accordingly. Very effective and teaching Chinese grammar and draws comparisons between Chinese and English for a more complete understanding.
