Professor Li is one of the best teachers I have had at UCLA. She is incredibly helpful and is really dedicated to her students. She holds three different review sessions before each midterm and final which basically covers every topic learned in the class so far.

I believe that Professor Li is one of the nicest professors out there. She really does care about her students and her tests are really straightforward. 10/10 would recommend, I wish she taught the rest of the 14 series instead some of the current professors.

She's pretty good overall. She cares a lot about her students and their individual success and also tries very hard to learn your name. She's also extremely kind and will feed you.

I was personally annoyed at mandatory lectures, daily hw, and weekly problem sets, but most all of the assignments were not particularly challenging and her exams are very similar in spirit to the HW and practice tests she gives you so as long as you keep up you can do pretty well.

A lot of the more advanced math topics were not covered that well imo and the last two weeks of class are kinda foggy in my brain because the math got too complicated that the book wouldn't go through them anymore so it was just a bunch of formulas thrown at us. The book is OK, not the best. The most stressful part of the class was that the cut off for an A was at 95%, so aim to get every point possible that comes up, including the extra credit assignments. The exams were incredibly dense and took the full 3 hours so make sure to read every question carefully.

I had the greatest opportunity of having professor Li for 14B. I believe it was her first time teaching class and she was AMAZING. Coming from a person who struggles with chemistry, Li cared for everyone's understanding of the material. She would hold multiple office hours and even had snacks during them! During her review sessions, she bought 300+ students pizza! How great is she?! She's super approachable and explains everything so well. She really understands what it's like to be a student, especially at UCLA and rewards those who show improvement. LITERALLY THE SWEETEST. I hope she comes back to teach again!

Prof Li was so incredibly kind. Chem is tough, as is freshman year, and she made everything as manageable as possible. She worked hard to make sure students understood the content, and went out of her way to print slides for us, hold review sessions, and even get us pizza and snacks. I have not had another professor as kind and thoughtful for such a large lecture, ever.

Great professor! Definitely one of the best at UCLA. Her lectures are engaging and full of applications of the chemistry you are learning. She goes out of her way to help students as well and provides you with many helpful resources most professors don't. I would definitely take another class with Professor Li!

We are a study group in Professor Li's Chem 14A Fall 2016. We decided to nominate Professor Li for teaching awards. We can not think of a more deserving professor for the enormous devotion to students and the tremendous success in teaching. It is a pity that she will not teach Chem 14B Winter 2017. She could easily be the best professor you can possibly have at UCLA!

She is really, really, really nice, probably the nicest professor I would ever have in UCLA. I had her in summer for 20A and winter for 20B, and received A+ for both classes because she was so easy.
She is good at explaining concepts and telling chemistry jokes. She would tell you the bottom line of each concept, and test you very very basic materials. She has tons of office hours and gave out snacks during office hours and review sessions. There is no possibility that you will not like her because she is such nice girl.
The only complain that I had about her would be similar to the post below. Her tests are so easy and basic that what she taught would probably not build up a solid foundation for 30 series chemistry because if you memorize all questions from her practice exams, you will do well in the actual exams. In the winter quarter, there are two holidays on Monday and she did not have time to cover everything she wanted. The whole chapter of "Acid and Base Equilibrium" was skipped, and these concepts were really important in 20L. In 20A, she also skipped something that is important to know.
Those were the first time she taught 20A and 20B, and I believe that if she become more experienced, she can become a really really fantastic professor.

I had Professor Li for both Chem 20A in Fall 2015 and Chem 20B in Winter 2016 (I recieved a A+ in both). Professor Li is without a doubt the nicest and most caring professor at UCLA. She definitely goes above and beyond her call of duty as a professor by offering office hours 3 times a week, providing snacks at office hours and exams, and holding 3 hour long review sessions. At office hours and in lecture she tries to learn every students names and by the end of Winter quarter, she knew most of her students since many took her for both 20A and 20B. In both Chem 20A and Chem 20B, SHE GIVES ALL COURSE MATERIALS FOR FREE. She prints out 350 copies of every lecture note, homework packet, and practice self evaluation and hands them out in class to all of the students in order to "conserve cost for you".
To be honest though, she is a really easy professor and you should be ashamed if you get lower than an A- in the class. She gives you the practice midterms and finals before the tests, which are basically identical to the actual self evaluations (her name for exams). However, just because she is an easy teacher, does not mean that she is a bad teacher. I felt engaged throughout her lectures and I felt that I actually learned chemistry well despite the easiness. It was a breath of fresh air not having to worry about my grade and learn for the sake of learning.
I did feel that she was more enthusiastic about teaching 20A over 20B since her real passion lies in Quantum Chemistry, which is the topic of Chem 20A. 20B was more boring but she still did a good job.
All in all, I loved Professor Li and I would recommend her class to every student wanting to take General Chemistry at UCLA. 10/10.
