Shinkyu (James) Lee

I really enjoyed Intro to IGS with Professor Lee. His lectures are very engaging and his enthusiasm for the material made the class very interesting and enjoyable. This course consists of constant reading that can be quite dense and complex as well as various in-class and outside-of-class group activities. Professor Lee is very kind and understanding towards his students, and he encourages thoughtful, diligent work and engagement with the material. I would highly recommend taking this course.

I took this class with Dr.Lee. He is a very passionate teacher; however, he is not clear in his instructions for students on any assignment. His class does a lot of group work, and he sometimes springs it on you at the last second.

I took this class with Professor Lee and Professor Herb. I enjoyed Professor Herb's teaching style and he was clearly very passionate about the material, and always accomodating to student needs. There were lots of readings for this class but we always went through them in actual class time, so that was helpful. There were only 2 "exams" that were just 2 questions with 300-400 word answers. That was somewhat frustrating because they were very long and sometimes confusingly worded questions with multiple different parts (sometimes like 5 different parts) that necessitated a rather long answer to effectively answer all parts but there weren't enough words. They were overall very fair graders though, and definitely wanted students to succeed. I also had Professor Lee, he was incredibly enthusiastic about the material which is always nice from a professor but I think maybe I just didn't align with his teaching style as much as some people might. He had a tendency to ask many questions when students would participate in class but often cut off their answers to give his own opinion and not give people time to finish or fully say what they were thinking, which was rather frustrating. Overall an interesting class, I think it just depends on what your learning style is whether you will really enjoy it or not.
