Lecture in very concise and easy to understand. Lecturer is always well-prepared for class and knows what she needs to teach the class. Week 2 studies the historical background of East Asia, which there are a lot to memorize. But after that, lecture will be more fun and interesting if you like to study Asia and the causes for the occurrance of different political systems in the region. Tutor is very helpful and nice but sometimes it might be hard to understand her word. So far I enjoy this course!
