Student's Comment:

"The sweetest teacher ever made a strong connection with every student in her class. A very likable person without sacrificing the respect that students should have for their teacher. Introduced a wide variety of different topics to us through several different methods, including PowerPoints, projects, and many knowledgeable guest speakers. A very engaging and admirable teacher and a class that was very interesting and provided lots of insight into several different cultures."

"I really enjoyed this course and how it was organized. Sunwoo was an amazing and personable professor who was always super understanding. I like how the grades were quickly returned. I would definitely recommend this class to a friend."

"She is always super nice and caring. Wants her students to do well and will help in any way that she can. There were so many good topics covered in this class, and I learned a lot throughout this semester."

"Ms. Sunwoo Park was an amazing and very active teacher in our studies! She really cared for every student's learning goals and was always very interactive in the class. I love her teaching style of teamwork and the use of guest lecturers to dive into deeper studies. "

"Professor Sun Woo is the pioneer in driving what my score was. Her continuing urge to teach to the best of her ability and to be open to new ideas was what made her such a great professor."

Student's Comment:

"I really enjoyed this course. I loved how hands-on it was and the activities outside of the classroom. I feel like I learned a lot this semester because of the teaching style and hands-on learning.

"Sunwoo is the best professor I have had at Clemson. She supported us well the whole semester and taught us how to run correctly and event with much instruction!"

"Sunwoo is one of the best professors I have had. She is so sweet and really cares about you as a person. The assignments and projects helped me to really apply what we were learning to real-world professional examples. She is super fun and wants all of her students to succeed. I am going to miss being in her class."

"She was very clear in instructions and always made sure to help when needed. So the in-class team-building assignments or the group work was always well taught."

"Very energetic, confident, and kind. Felt supported as a student."
