By far my favorite professor ever! I've taken her multiple times because her classes are awesome and she is amazing! She is passionate about teaching and she cares about her students and wants to see them succeed! If you need help, go talk to her, she's always happy to help! Her classes are fun and you learn a lot. Seriously, God bless her! 10/10!!

Fantastic instructor. Homework takes a good amount of time, but grading is generous and assignments are useful. You'll be WAY better at reading in German after taking this class, and Karolina makes everything very easy to understand. Highly recommended.

Karolina is an excellent TA. She is available for help when you need it and recognizes and praises improvement. She is always happy to teach and be in class. No final exam and midterms in mostly English about the texts we read. Graded homework due once a week & non-graded homework, but checked, 2x week. Professor Schuler is also a great professor.
