He was working on his PhD in linguistics and his knowledge of this topic makes his teaching high quality. He was very understanding and attentive to students and genuinely cared for our class. When topics outside of the lesson were discussed, he provided answers to topics. Attendance is crucial as he explains the slides in class.Rate My Professors ↗
Ye Laoshi was an amazing teacher! He truly puts in so much work and care for each and every student, and answers all of our questions unrelated to the course topic. He is very understanding of environmental factors and will accommodate every need. Take his class!Rate My Professors ↗
TAKE THIS CLASS. YE LAOSHI IS THE BEST CHINESE TEACHER IVE HAD IN SIX YEARS. THIS MAN DESERVES A RAISE AND THE WORLD. YOU WILL NOT REGRET PICKING HIM.Rate My Professors ↗
Simply the best Chinese instructor at the University of Wisconsin. Cares very much about his students, and teaches the content with passion and excitement. Encourages engagement and participation in a comfortable, low stakes environment. Fair standards and exceptional personality, extremely kind and helpful. Chinese class at its finest.Rate My Professors ↗
He is the best language professor that I have had. He was very sympathetic and he understood language is not supposed to be taught in a restrictive way. He created an environment in which students felt comfortable making mistakes. He made learning one of the hardest languages simpler, and less stressful. I would highly recommend any of his courses.Rate My Professors ↗
