"Sengwei (Nicholas) took time out of his day to help me with questions I had outside of office hours or at times that most others would not be willing to help. This meant a great deal to me. It showed me he really was interested in the well-being of his students."
"Super friendly, never made anyone feel uncomfortable or stupid for any questions. Always very helpful and interested in teaching us to prepare for the future."
"Sengwei (Nicholas) was so kind all the time and really enjoyed teaching us! He has a lot of knowledge of Onshape and 3D design and organized his lessons very well to teach us. Amazing person!"
"He was good at explaining Onshape processes, but sometimes the explanations were too advanced/fast for someone who hasn't had experience with 3D modeling. Whenever I asked him questions he was helpful and good at explaining steps in detail"
"Fantastic GTA, and his class was always the highlight of Engineering 1182.01. I really enjoyed his CAD lectures and thought it was very useful."
"He did a great job at preparing us for labs and for helping everyone get through the projects! Sometimes this class is tough but he knew how to help with everything!"
