Spring 2025 - I took Math 120A, and I couldn’t find the right place to leave a review, so I’ll just write it here! Out of all the math courses I’ve taken, his homework workload was the LIGHTESTTTT and MOSTTT manageable. Definitely appreciated. The exams were tough, but to be fair, I think that’s just the nature of the material(Or I'm stupid -> YES). He provides a practice exam.... it doesn’t match exactly, but if you try to focus on what he’s emphasizing, it helps quite a lot. He replies to emails very quickly and tries to be helpful. (Though at the end the tone felt a bit more cold... not a big deal) I liked his lectures. The way he organized material through his own notes made it way easier to follow than relying on the textbook alone.

Winter 2025 - I took Math 132 with Professor Zhao in Winter 2025. He spends lots of time going through proofs in lecture, and the homeworks are designed to be more proof-based based which goes very well with his teaching style. The midterm and final were very similar to the content we covered in class, and he gave plenty of time in class to review for each of the tests. Overall, would recommend this professor if you are interested in a more proof-based course.
