Summer 2024 - So I didn't really know what to expect because Professor Lunardi was a relatively new professor and this was her first time teaching the class, but she did a pretty good job. I thought lecture was really clear, but I only really went to the first one because the slides thoroughly explained the content. Professor Lunardi also provided handouts and worksheets for optional practice. She's a bit of a harsh grader as she takes off points for small mistakes, but the lowest homework grade is dropped and there's an extra credit opportunity in the final. Overall, this class isn't something to worry about and you come out of it with a better understanding of linguistics.

Fall 2024 - I liked this class, there are a lot of resources to do well in it. The homework and review worksheets/practice exams are very similar to the midterm and final so if you want to do well, you definitely have the resources to do so. The lectures were generally pretty interesting and she cares about her students doing well in her class. I would take a class with her again if I could.
