I had her for 2320 and 3404. She is an incredibly kind and supportive professor. Her classes are very interactive; I never felt bored or lost during them, but it's important you pay attention and stay engaged because there are in-class assignments and pop quizzes. She's always prepared for her lectures, and her classes were not stressful.PSYC2320 2025-12-21 03:17:36 +0000 UTC
Dr. Tang is a very knowledgeable and kind professor, and her tests are a breeze if you study the (free!) textbook. That said, the group research project was challenging given the experience level of most students and the delayed feedback time. She didn't input grades until the last weeks of the semester, which was kind of frustrating.PSYC1101 2025-12-18 20:56:57 +0000 UTC
She is the most understanding, caring professor ever, and will give you second chances no matter how badly you messed up. There are many group projects in this class, and attendance is graded off of in-class assignments and discussion rather than traditional attendance for a grade. She also provides the textbook for free so the class costed $0.PSYC2320 2025-12-03 05:22:37 +0000 UTC
Though a very kind and understanding professor, there are issues with the class. Almost every assignment in the semester was graded in December, making it difficult to gauge progress, and feedback for the research project is heavily delayed. That being said, Professor Tang is generous with grades, so you'll get an A if you show up to class.PSYC1101 2025-12-11 00:56:07 +0000 UTC
Professor Tang is very sweet and extremely understanding. If you take notes you'll pass her class. But BEWARE of the research project it will make you lose your mind towards the end of the year. Try to get everything for it done right away otherwise your life will be a mess.PSYC1101 2025-12-10 18:55:42 +0000 UTC
