Professor: Dr Hoi Wan Heng, Sandy
Sandy is really nice and gives constructive feedback for reflective essay and term paper outlines that helped me improve. She explains complicated concepts clearly, and tutorials were well-structured, despite her English with a strong Cantonese accent. Although I am uninterested in science, I enjoyed Sandy’s tutorials.

Prof Lin is a new professor who just came to CUHK in 2024/25; She is kind and allows flexibility in exam arrangements; lectures are useful but little boring; assignments are also well-designed and very useful for revision.

Professor: Dr Tsui Po Yung, Anna
This is my second course taught by Anna - she’s really nice. Her lectures are interesting as she always uses real-life business cases to explain different HR functions. Will learn a lot even if you do not plan to become an HR, or even if you are not a business student. She also shares a lot of her past experience working as an HR specialist. Highly recommended unless you want to skip lectures.

Professor: Jiang XIA
He teaches like shit, mainly due to his inability to explain basic concepts clearly. As a result, he over-complicates even the simplest organic chemistry concept. Also, his English has a heavy Chinese accent and he never speaks into the microphone.

COMM2922 Introduction to Creative and New Media
Shared by Anonymous
2024-08-08
Professor: CHOW, Carol P.H.
She admitted that she was NOT GOOD AT AUDIO/SOUND. She and the TAs only taught this session with less than one lecture of sound narrative theories plus around two lectures of practical skills on how to record and edit recordings. Yet, she expected students to combine soundscapes, human voices and music into the audio assignment with perfect timing, making every second meaningful. Some classmates and I agreed that we couldn’t grasp the essence of her teaching.
Moreover, handing in 3 assignments in 7 weeks was very DEMANDING. If you want to start working on the assignments when all content has been taught, you only have ONE WEEK to complete TWO ASSIGNMENTS. I hope that it will be better next year.
I took this course during summer semester, with whole day lesson. If the lecturer remains the same, and it is whole day lesson in summer, I recommend every student taking this course to BRING YOUR OWN LUNCHBOXES, as there will likely be CLASSWORK DURING LUNCHTIME.
She strongly tend to FORCE HER RULES, AESTHETIC STANDARDS AND WORD VIEWS ON STUDENT’S WORKS, and be very critical on grading. See from above for her worldviews.

SOCI3452 Selected Topics in Sociology II
Shared by Anonymous
2024-07-12
Professor: Professor Jin SUN
Professor Sun has claims he will teach a lot about the global sociology and that he will invite guest lecturers during the course so students can establish a connection and success in the financial industry. In order to ensure his course not being cancelled, he will teach "normally" with PowerPoint. However, this is absolutely a false promise and borderline deception with intent. After the add-drop period, he has completely changed his teaching attitutde. None of the guest lecturers as claimed in the course outline has ever shown up to class, but instead it is about often an 1 hour interview clip from Youtube! He no longer uses PowerPoint to teach, but rather kept on broadcasting Youtube videos and waste most of the class time on students' presentation. He even disrespect the students and constantly make fun of their presentations and insulting the students' supposed "lack of knowledge" on the subject matter when he is the one who has never taught anything in class. For example, he always play on his phone throughout the students present presentation (e.g., texting, watching video, or web surfing) and then afterwards spend the entire Q&A making the presenters feeling humiliated. In short, I found this course has serious teaching quality problems to the point it has become the instructor is rather using the students for his selfish gains for tenure-track promotion, so therefore, I would recommend the students to choose other UGEC courses and have far less confidence with this course.

UFGN1000 In Dialogue With Nature
Shared by Anonymous
2024-07-11
Professor: Cherry Lam To Kam
Dr. Lam taught the lesson in a strict and monotonous manner. For discussions, she will arrange everyone into groups and let every group share their thoughts groupwise. She is an experienced lecturer, so she knows how to deal with texts and also discussions. However, that is not the case for essays(TP and RJ), as she only wants an essay stream that she thinks is correct. Otherwise, you are very possibly subjected to a bad grade. Essays, in my opinion, should be open and free to write what you think is right, especially if you are discussing philosophical and abstract concepts, and as long as it is logically sound and grammatically graceful, it is perfectly fine. Yet, in her class, you are quite limited to writing freely; you should write the one idea that she thinks is right instead of what you think is justifiable. Still, I am happy to take the class because I believe I learned from the texts.

Mediocre, despite what the course outline says, the lessons are not interactive, even in Q&A. Most of the time it's just the teacher talking without student input. Plus, the teacher show bias towards certain topics. However, she is friendly most of the time and will answer your questions on assignments.

Monotone tone and reads from slides. Lectures are not mandatory so you can skip those. However, he's still helpful when you have questions about the lecture materials.
In the Group report, you need to code the interview data but this process wasn't taught until the last tutorial. Furthermore, the tutorial only explained very briefly. You need to research on your own to know what exactly you need to do

The professor directly reads PPT slide, but can explain complicated concepts well. The lecture slides are enough for the mid-term quiz but the textbook is helpful for understanding the concepts better. The professor and TAs are helpful with the group project and gives detailed advice.

The professor's teaching is alright. She reads from the lecture slides so it doesn’t make a difference if you attend lectures or not. She welcomes questions from students and answers them in detail. However, her tips for the exam may be misleading. Although there are "required readings", you don't actually need to read them.

GENA2112 The Characteristics of Western Culture

Professor: Dr. Frederick Hok Ming CHEUNG
Professor is friendly and enthusiastic about teaching, he often plays songs and videos related to the lecture. Also, after the Mid-term exam, he'll give back the papers and explain things you need to improve on. However, he sometimes struggles to finish lectures on time. The Powerpoint itself is a bit simplistic as he wants you to attend the lectures to understand it better.

習作要求清晰，課堂+寫作指導上會詳細講點做習作會高分D，跟足要求做就容易靚grade
