Review Quotes for MA4270 Data Modeling and Computation (Fall 2021)I have learnt a lot more from him than many other ML modules combined. Vincent deserves the honor of "best teacher" at NUS. He is really passionate and knowledgeable in the Machine Learning area. Taking his module really opens my eyes. Although the speed is quite fast and I have to spend a lot of time in this course to barely catch his steps, I am willing to devote time to this course from the bottom of my heart, since my passion for Machine Learning has been stimulated. As a student who has little experience in classical machine learning, I am very grateful that Prof. Tan makes this module understandable for me, This module nurtures my interest and inspires me to explore deeper in this field. Therefore, I would like to nominate Prof. Tan for teaching awards. Prof Vincent is one of the 2 most enthusiastic, hard–working and hilarious professors I had the privilege to learn from at NUS. His ability to articulate complicated concepts in concise and thought–provoking manners is top–notch. I learnt a lot from him, not just about the topics of MA4270, but generally he really showed us what it meant to do work with passion and great accountability – by the way he prepared lecture notes and complementary readings, prepared questions, engaged us during lectures and being responsive to our questions. In lecture, he is very passionate in class, which can well arouse the students' emotions and keep the students focused in class. And he will introduce some classic and simple examples to deepen our understanding of the algorithm. What's more, he correlate the theory with practice. What make me a deep impression is how to rank the best players in tennis by EM. Prof he shows us that wow this is how math works exactly step by step, which is so charming. And I really like the office hours. Coming from an algorithms background (I've taken most of the 5000–level algorithm modules in SoC), algorithms are well–grounded in proofs. Machine learning on the other hand, always seemed like rubbish to me, because people often tune parameters and it works well and they give themselves a pat on the back and there isn't really a good reason why. This module changed my perspective on that, thanks. Prof Vincent taught the module of MA4270 with great enthusiasm. He was very passionate about his field of study and was definitely a module that was interesting. Personally, I enjoyed the real–world application of the module as it allows us to explore outside the scope of what is being taught in the classroom. The workload for this module is higher than the usual load of a normal module that I have taken in NUS and a suggestion is not have so many components and consolidate them so that students can focus on a part of the module. Having said that, I do enjoy the ideas being discussed during the lectures and the open culture of being able to ask questions. (This is especially so as Prof Vincent makes it a point to stop at certain portion and ask if anyone is in doubt). Furthermore, the quick recap of proofs and ideas helps me consolidate what has been taught and I found it to be extremely helpful. In my opinion, the most enjoyable part of the module was that I was given the opportunity to write a term paper on a dataset that interests me the most! Buses. Having the freedom to do so meant that I had could find real–world application to the theory that has been taught. It was definitely a steep learning process to source, think and present the term paper in a concise and interesting way. But I find it useful not just in school but also as I look to find a job (as it can be a starting point for a conversation during an interview). I will recommend Prof’s Vincent’s module in Data Modelling and Computation as I find it extremely applicable to the outside world and worthwhile to learn under the prof himself. Many thanks for the semester and the interesting ideas being discussed in the classroom! Review Quotes for EE5137 Stochastic Processes (Spring 2021)Whether it is preparation for teaching or consultation after class, Professor Vincent is an very excellent teacher. In particular, handwriting notes are very detailed, which touched me the most. I think professor have made very sufficient preparations in teaching. In the course of learning stochastic process, I not only mastered a lot of knowledge points, but also deeply understood the application and derivation of them. I believe that I will never forget the way of thinking that the professor taught me in this life. In a word, I am very glad to nominate him being selected for teaching awards. Prof Vincent articulates his ideas very clearly, teaches a very engaging class, points out key heuristics principles for approaching questions in stochastic processes, looks out for his students to ensure they can keep up with the material and are not confused. In his lessons, he does not neglect the mathematical technicalities (to ensure complete rigour) while at the same time, keeping the discussion relevant and centred around the practical applications. Prof Vincent is also not afraid to field questions asked by students. I could not have asked for a better teacher. He is the best teacher I have meet in university so far. Can feel his passion in teaching, he will try his best to make the class interesting. From his class I can feel that he real put a lot of effort in teaching the class. He comes to class incredibly well–prepared. He is also an extremely sharp and clear thinker. He never fails to impart new insights with each lecture. He is also patient and willing to talk about concepts that are beyond the scope of the course. Overall, an excellent educator!
Review Quotes for EE2211 Introduction to Machine Learning (Spring 2021)Professor Tan is very dedicated and passionate about what he is teaching. He goes the extra mile to compile a book/guide that helps students to be equipped with more information. He is very willing to clarify any doubts in class and even in consultation sessions. He attends Lectures (Zoom) even though he is not teaching in any of them (the lectures), to understand what the students are learning in the Lecture.

He goes beyond what's required of him by revising the concepts in the lecture, conducting regular consultations as well as being always available via email or telegram. His classes are also fun and engaging. He patiently answers all our questions. He makes us enjoy the subject by linking the concepts with real–world applications. Despite having e–learning this sem, his classes were effective and in fact even better than traditional face–to–face classes as the tutorials are recorded.
Prof Tan is very helpful even outside of lesson timings. He is able to explain concepts very clearly during his tutorials and would not hesitate to render us help when we need them. He would also ask us for feedback regarding his teaching so that he can improve on himself, which I feel is not something that most tutors would do. Very nice and friendly. goes the extra mile to ensure our learning and understanding of module. Willing to give consultations to students on his own time and very patient with slow learning students. Writes his own notes to ensure that we have additional knowledge in addition to the lecture and willing to share with the whole cohort.

Review Quotes for EE2012 Analytical Methods in ECE (Fall 2006)He is a very approachable, responsible and knowledgeable man! He is my savior for this module. Many thanks to him for all the additional questions, examples and of course review sessions!
He is passionate about teaching with vast knowledge in this module. He spends huge amount of time outside the allocated tutorial timing to teach us on concepts we are unsure of and it is not somehting that everyone is willing to do especially when it usually lasts for hours. He also makes the extra effort to come up with extra questions for us to do which helps us to reinforce our understanding of the module. He is also very patient when it comes to explaining key concepts.
Exhibit proficiency in his teaching and very actively involved in interacting with students. Inspires me to learn more about this module.
