Setting aside the co-teaching with Justin, Ting did next to nothing to help me learn anything. It was quite difficult to follow her and understand her thought process when going over any topic within the course. The best thing you can do is not go to the lecture and just read Justin's notes and pray that the exam isn't too hard. |

She's a pretty boring and unhelpful lecturer, but this was her first semester so I'll chalk it up to that. I was surprised by how fairly the exams were graded, you get a lot of partial credit in some places that you would never expect to (put a completely wrong answer for a fill-in-the-box question and got 4/5 points for it lol), and in general the exams are pretty fair. She always holds a review session before every exam, and they are very helpful, she tells you almost exactly what's on the exam. I will say she benefitted a lot from co-teaching with Justin and Herve, and if she's not co-teaching with them after this semester then I'm not sure how much of this review will hold so take it with a grain of salt. Overall, you'll be fine with her, just study. |

Ting is an okay lecturer and a nice person. She uses Herves slides which I found very unintuitive. Also, the pacing of the lectures feels off, but this is her first semester lecturing here so this probably will improve. She benefits a lot from coteaching with Justin. His notes teach you everything you need to know, and the course organization from him is good. The exams Ting wrote were fair with averages in the B- range. Just make sure you show up to the review lecture the class before the exam; she tells you what’s going to be on the exam there. Overall, Ting is a good choice if you don’t think you’ll make it to Justin’s 8AM or if you’re trying to avoid Kruskal. |

Ting is an ok lecturer but i always found myself getting bored during lectures and wouldn't pay attention. I stopped going to class after the 2nd week and was still able to do good because she was co-teaching with Justin. Justin's lecture notes and latex notes online were what got me through the course and they really helped with the homeworks and MCQ quizzes every week. There were a good number practice exams that you can use to study for exams which was really nice. The reason she gets 4 stars is pretty much because she co teaches with Justin |
