If you would like to make any comments on any of the above ratings, please
do so here:

If another student were to ask you to describe Mr. Lee Ling as an
instructor, what would tell them?
     
      HE TEACHES WITH MUCH KNOWLEDGE OF THE SUBJECT AT HAND, PROVIDING PERSONAL EXPERIENCE TO BROADEN AND ENLIGHTEN THE CLASS (RATHER THAN SPEAKING IN THE USUAL MONOTONAL DICTATION OF THE TEXTBOOK LIKE MANY, AND THEY SHALL REMAIN NAMELESS, TEACHERS). HIS OUTINGS FOR THE CLASS PROVIDE THE STUDENTS WITH PRACTICAL LEARNING, WHICH I BELIEVE EXPANDS THE SCOPE AND INTEREST OF THE SUBJECT. YET HE DOES NOT LEAVE HIS STUDENTS SIMPLE LETTER GRADES ON A REPORT CARD THAT WOULD REMAIN HIDDEN IN COLLEGE FILES, BUT ALLOWS HIS STUDENTS' IDENTITIES KNOWN TO THE WORLD WHEN PUBLISHING THE SEMESTER'S PROJECT ONLINE; AN ACT THAT SERVES THE STUDENTS, THE FACULTY, AND INTERESTED INTERNET SURFERS. I WOULD DEFINITELY RECOMMEND HIM TO ANYONE AND EVERYONE AS A GREAT TEACHER, AS WELL AS PERSON.
