Ni is super nice and was one of the highlights of my quarter. The material taught wasn't anything super crazy or difficult but I feel that's to be expected with a class like 17. In any case, it was all taught rather clearly. The midterm and final aren't anything too hard but they are really long. I also found that it was pretty easy to lose points on them since about a third of the tests were always multiple choice. So, if you got a multiple choice question wrong you could lose a sizable number of points on the test.

Prof Ni is the sweetest person. Physics 17 is kind of a boring/shallow class on its own since it is sort of just an introductory dabble in quantum/stat mech, but she explained the concepts very clearly and the workload is light. The exams are long but not hard. I don't really care for the class itself as it is mostly just taking textbook formulas and applying them without derivation, but Prof Ni is like a mother to us, her kindness brings me joy in the dark times of COVID.

Ni was a great professor and taught things very well. She is very nice and cares about all of her students. With it being an online class, she had some trouble setting things up but it still went fairly smoothly. The textbook was helpful for me, especially for the open book exams. She gave some extra credit by giving us quizzes that would add some points to our midterm and final exam grades.

Ni ni was an amazing lecturer! She deserves better ratings here on bruinwalk. She makes the material super easy to understand, and is definitely engaging in lecture. Her lectures were really interesting and I genuinely walked out of each lecture having learnt something new, and actually understood it. She is super nice and always willing to help! Her midterm was very fair, very similar to what she said it would be like. The final was a lot harder, but still doable. Even if you don't do stellar, the curve will likely be in your favor, and you will get a good grade. Literally unless you get like a 0% on everything you will probably end up with at least a C in the class. She is also very concerned with students learning, and is always open to comments or suggestions and often sends out polls asking students about their opinions on the course and her teaching so far. She really cares and it shows! And by the way, her accent does not at all impair her teaching abilities, like others may suggest. Ni ni is one of the best physics professors I've had here at UCLA, I would definitely recommend taking phys17, or any physics class with her!

Professor Ni is a nice teacher however she fails to be engaging in class and didn't explain a lot of important concepts and derivation steps. Professor also has a little accent.
