Her teaching style is extremely lazy; she basically just reads off lecture slides and only calls on students that are native speakers of Chinese or close to fluent. I would recommend taking Chinese abroad in the Tianjin summer program to avoid taking this professor.",

You may not learn much in lecture, but discussions are there and she is always willing to help and talk",
