Weijia is extremely intelligent. He cares deeply for his students and for the topics he covered in class. Every week Weijia would come into class with new information on what he had learned from the research he was doing. He is very personable and a great teacher.Rate My Professors ↗

Best online teacher I've ever had. He has really nailed the online teaching. He's passionate, honest, and very fun.Rate My Professors ↗
Awesome class. Extremely knowledgeable, passionate and helpful. Not hard to earn an A. Three quizzes, two presentations (piece of cake) and a small paper. Lenient grader who wants to see you try.Rate My Professors ↗
