Absolutely HORRIBLE! he never answered questions on the homework all the way through. He assigned too much homework and graded every hw assignment in a stringent manner, deducted points for everything! His accent made it hard to comprehend what he was saying sometimes along with bad grammar and spelling on tests. AVOID HIM!

Ly does have an accent, and sometimes it may be unclear to understand what he is saying. He makes his quizzes very comprehensive, including the concepts he explains during lectures. DE is a very complex course, and Ly did a pretty well job, although he did make several mistakes, teaching the subject. I would recommend Ly for Differential Equations.

He contradicts himself a lot and a lot of times, students corrected him during lecture. He does not understand calculus II at all. Solutions manual will be your best friend.

He doesn't answer all the home work questions and he really does not know how to give notes they are not organized at all. His voice is monotoned and he has a strong asian accent. He is really dry and boring. Most of the time I have to figure out how to do the problems my self because his notes are that bad. Don't Take him!

he doesn't speak English very well and some may find that he works pretty fast but i liked his class and i understood almost all what we had covered. There is only one thing if you still have problems with something from your previous class, he is not going to come back just for you.

I enjoyed his class and he explained things very well. He does have an accent but I got use to it very quickly. He's not that hard to understand at all and if you ask him he will write definitions and procedures on the board so that I am sure that I understand everything that he is teaching. I would definalely take one of his classes again.

If you are good at math his class is easy I did all the hw ahead of time and slept in his class. But its really hard to learn from him. Its very hard to understand him most of the time.

If you're not great in Math and it's not your thing.DO NOT take him. When you ask for help he will tell you to look at your notes and claims the book won't help you, but he is the one that told us which book to get. He gets frustrated if you don't understand & says things should be common sense. Do not take him if you have difficulty in Math.

He's an okay professor. Assigns tons of hw and does grade them, so be prepare! Quizzes and exams are fair, he does a review before each. He does try to clarify any Qs. I personally think there's better math professor out there so unless you're really good in math, go for it but if not, take a diff. professor. Semester ended w/less than half of pple

This teacher grades really easy, but you learn next to nothing from his lectures. If I had any other teacher I feel that I would fail the exams (though I might learn), but I get an A without trying. He spends most time just reading from the book. It's boring, he's difficult to understand, his test smell like smoke. I would never take him again.

kind of hard to understand his lectures, but he makes up for it with super easy exams and quizzes. all you need to get an A in this class is contained in the book. Do examples and homework problems and the exams should not be any surprise. Easy A.

He's not an easy teacher but he is managable if you put forth the effort. One thing to keep in mind is that he doesn't offer much help after class so if you are one who needs one-on-one assistance try to avoid his class. He also has a thick accent and if you have trouble with understanding people with accents don't take him.
