An amazing professor who goes out of their way to make class engaging and learn about every person in the class. Definitely homework-heavy and the class can be disorganized, but she posts really good lecture notes for every class, and if you just put in the effort, you'll learn a lot and get an A.MATH4570 2025-12-17 01:10:17 +0000 UTC
A pretty hard class lectured by a professor who cares. She will take the time to learn your name and explain to you concepts that are hard. Stuff you don't see as much in college classesMATH1365 2024-12-11 22:09:24 +0000 UTC
lee is my favorite math professor! she is very humble and willing to admit when she doesn't know something. even more, she follows up to find out the answer for you. the homework in this class took forever but she was always available to help.MATH4545 2019-12-31 02:30:45 +0000 UTC
Great professor that genuinely cared about her students. She had a very fair grading policy and allowed you to drop your worst test, and she was very good about giving partial credit, e.g. if you made some an arithmetic mistake but still demonstrated knowledge of the concepts. Very approachable for help and always in a good mood.MATH2331 2018-07-09 20:41:46 +0000 UTC
I love her so much!!!! she is literally the nicest professor I've ever had. Knows everyone's name and is so cute and caring. Take her class if you have a chance!MATH2321 2018-04-04 22:31:54 +0000 UTC
Lee-Peng is a very good professor. She is very enthusiastic about the material and is passionate about getting her students to learn. Course was structured very well. Entertaining in class. Very nice person as a whole. Expect homework and tests, but nothing out of the ordinary.MATH3341 2016-04-19 15:40:04 +0000 UTC
Very helpful, explains concepts clearly.MATH3081 2014-06-23 23:34:46 +0000 UTC
She was a very nice woman and tried her best to teach us the massive amount of material for the semester. Always willing to give extra help, but since the notoriously hard Prof. Sherman made up the test for midterm and final (for 60% of our grades) most of us did not do well in the class.MATH1260 2013-01-01 22:38:15 +0000 UTC
She's such a sweetheart. I took Discrete Math with her, at first she was okay but she started getting pretty confusing as the course progresses, it might be the class though because it's mainly a philosophical class disguised as math.MATH2310 2012-12-22 23:53:08 +0000 UTC
If you're just looking to fulfill your level one math requirement, just take her class and it'll be a breeze (assuming you're fine with math). Barely need your textbook. If you struggle with math though, take MATH 1215 with another professor because she speaks English poorly and if you can't guess what she's saying, the class may get hard for you.MATH1215 2012-04-14 16:53:16 +0000 UTC
Excellent math professor. Went into depth during lectures, and provided great explanations during office hours. A caring professor who wants her students to pass.MATH1365 2024-11-23 17:07:19 +0000 UTC
Fourier Series & PDEs - it's a hard class and she makes you work for it. But you do learn a lot. Text is used heavily.MATH4545 2016-11-02 22:09:30 +0000 UTC
Super sweet and nice professor, and she really cares about all her students. Her lectures are very well done, and she knows her material. If you do the homework and show up to class you'll do fine, a little extra work is needed for an A.MATH2321 2017-06-01 17:14:58 +0000 UTC
She is a very nice lady and her class is full of knowledge useful for my first exam for actuarial exam:probability. Highly recommend if you are interested in taking actuarial exams.MATH3081 2012-11-15 11:56:11 +0000 UTC
really nice and helpful, she wants everyone to do well and she really encourages you to go to recitations and office hours, if you pay attention in class you'll do fineMATH1215 2011-11-15 21:07:49 +0000 UTC
