Teaching

I am an enthusiastic educator. My research-led and student-focused teaching approach often gives students positive learning experience and leads to strong positive teaching feedback. I have been teaching a wide range of courses, from an introductory level to an advanced level, from undergraduate courses to PhD courses, and from highly-specialised courses to interdisciplinary courses.

As the Business Analytics Program Coordinator, I have also been intensively involved in developing the Business Analytics curriculum and Data Science for Business curriculum within the University of Sydney Business School.

What did students say from the surveys?

  • Very interesting and useful unit. The lecture content is very structured. Minh-Ngoc always walked us through difficult theoretical concept using simple ideas, which are illustrative and easy to understand.

  • Minh's lectures and the tutorials are very well structured, and cover the right amount of depth. Minh teaches complex concepts in a simple and easy to understand manner. He also delivers feedback on time and is very responsive to emails, and really goes out of his way to ensure we understand. The quizzes and exam questions are very relevant as well.

  • Lecturer Tran is really kind of teaching with well-explanation. He always answers the questions well whenever, whatever I ask, even beyond the scope of the unit of study. It encourages me to study more actively.

  • Minh-Ngoc has been an amazing lecturer/tutor. He is very supportive and patient, and is willing to go through the concepts and ideas that I am unsure of in his own time. He is very encouraging.

  • The content is hard but I learnt a lot from this class. Lecturer is super nice and knowledgeable.

  • Everything is perfect, love this unit! Especially many many thanks to Minh-Ngoc excellent teaching, and very very patient when answering our questions.
