Very good teacher IMO. She was very patient with us and her German was really good too. Would definitely take her class again.

Quality 1/5Difficulty 3/5
She never shows enough respect to students. She teaches international students English courses and she always make you feel like she is superior than you. She likes to make all the students agree with her opinion. She grades the paper very harsh. I took 116 and I passed, but if you need to take 118, do not take her class!

Don't take her class if you want a good grade. Extremely hard grader , picky at even the smallest of things. Expects your essays to be flawless.

She is a really great teacher. Very organised. Lenient with assignment date if you have a legitimate excuse. Cares if you do well. Have to show initiative though.
