SLAVIC425 - Ukrainian Culture and Society - Oksana genuinely cares about her students and is very passionate about her lectures. She is very nice and accommodating and is aware that most students take this class to fulfill a requirement so the workload is minimal. The group project at the end of the semester is pretty fun. 100% recommend for SocScRate My Professors ↗
Very easy to understand and personable professor who is kind to students and 100% willing to help you succeed. The assignments are all easy to understand and fairly graded, with mistakes receiving clear feedback on how to improve. (I am not sure why the only course code available is "72634," I am in SLAVIC105, which is First Semester Ukrainian.)Rate My Professors ↗
