Fall 2020 - Anna was a great TA for German 3. After taking a break from German over the summer, I was quite overwhelmed coming into this class, but she slowed things down and made sure everyone was caught up. I would say that the workload was sometimes difficult to manage, and that staying ahead of the deadlines was important. You have a week to take the timed tests with a lockdown browser, and you get two attempts. While this class may have been better in person since the class size is so small, Anna did a great job of making it feel personal and giving you constructive feedback on your assignments. She is also very flexible, so if something comes up, just let her know and you often can work something out. I enjoyed her class so much that I decided to take German 4!

Winter 2020 - This was one of the most frustrating classes I've taken at UCLA. Of course, it is a German 3 class, but this professor did not help make it better in any way. The workload for this class was very heavy given a language class. We had 2 books over the quarter, packets, and multiple tests. This professor was unclear on what she wanted and not helpful. If you asked a question she would either seem annoyed or proceed to answer before you finished explaining your question. If you can choose a different professor for German classes, I definitely would.
