    "comment": "Kaiping is a great person -- she brought a big smile to class every time, and has a strong passion for the course material. However, as a professor, she is unclear at times with instructions and how she presents things. The course itself is group-project heavy & at times can be rather boring/confusing, but I recommend it if you love RStudio!",
