Lauren was a really awesome 101 teacher; as it was an intro-language class, having the comprehensive power points and lectures that she gave as well as the in-class practice was really useful. She;s very intelligent and funny, and clearly knows a lot about Italian culture as well as the language.Rate My Professors ↗
I really enjoyed Lauren as my TA for 102. She has such a great personality and wants you to succeed in her class. Make sure to buy the textbook and all of the exams and quizzes are outlined clearly in the syllabus. No surprises. Show up to class and don't use your phone and you are set. I recommend her to anyone looking to take 102.Rate My Professors ↗
Lauren is an absolute gem. She's a very clear teacher, she's very very nice, and she's always cracking jokes. There's a lot of class work, but none of it is very hard, and as with all language classes, it really helps the material to stick in your brain. If you do all the work, you won't have to kill yourself studying for exams, just review will doRate My Professors ↗
