She teaches a Japanese. Take everything you know about any foreign language, and it applies. Be there every day, take notes, do the homework, and practice when you can. She's an amazing teacher though, loves all the students, and wants everyone to succeed. She tries to make it as accessible as possible. Was a very fun class!Rate My Professors ↗
