There is nothing negative I can say about Professor Sone she is so incredibly amazing. She is a wonderful teacher who is so willing to meet you at your level and help you thrive. Yes, it is a hard class. Learning a language takes work- but she makes it the most rewarding work you will ever do.

Prof. Sone is caring and attentive. She meets you where you're at with Hebrew. Part of language learning is building community and immersion, and Sone really leans into this with participation-focused classes and lots of practice HW. She WILL push you to improve your skills, but she's always available for individualized help and is overall amazing.
