Selected Comments:
"Ge Wu was fantastic. This material is pretty dense but she was very patient, especially with me. I could not have asked for a better instructor. She was always very prompt but personable. I am actually sad to finish the class."
"The instructor was incredible! Her PowerPoints were helpful and straightforward. Her teaching style was also engaging and easy to understand. Additionally, I want to note that Professor Cathy Wu went above and beyond to accommodate her students. She genuinely cares about the success and well-being of her students. Thank you, Professor Wu! Your course was excellent."
