I absolutely love Magda, she is a wonderful professor in every meaning of the word. She cares and is more than happy to help outside of class with things both related and not related to the course, it's wonderful to have a professor who knows and cares so much.
Her chosen texts for the course, although somewhat depressing, were very interesting and tied in well through documentaries and excerpt readings.
My biggest complaint is she is slow to responding to emails, occasionally not responding at all. Aside from this she is very caring, and engaging during lectures.

Vicky is a very nice German woman and she is concerned about the students. She gives good grades if you do all the work.

Professor Magda is awesome. She is a more than well-qualified language instructor. I am so glad that my first experience of the German language was with Professor Magda. She really knows how to help students grasp a new language in a short amount of time, in an enjoyable and non-stressful way. Her class is designed to encourage students to speak in German all the time; it can be a little intimidating at first, but you become familiar with the language so much more quickly. Professor Magda is never annoyed or critical when you make mistakes; instead, she always smiles and willingly corrects your mistakes. While she is a charismatic and competent instructor, she is also motherly and caring toward her students. She is always pleasant, diligent, and hard-working. German 1 with Professor Magda was rewarding and worthwhile. I also took German 2 with her and plan to take intermediate German with her as well!

I think in general learning the German language isn’t easy. This class has a VERY heavy workload as do the higher levels so be prepared to complete all online assignments ON TIME. I can’t stress this enough but by going to office hours will make the content of this class so much easier. Overall, I did enjoy this class a lot and have no regrets about taking it but I need to emphasize how strenuous it is.

Altho this prof was listed as the teacher, they were nearly the mentor of the PhD student who taught the class: Lena Trüper. My review is of the class she taught.

This class was so much fun. Genuinely the highlight of my week. Even I didn't understand most of what Lena said in class (because it was all German), the small class size really helped us be engaged and try to practice. Attendance was mandatory. I feel like I didn't learn much, I must have because I got an A? Homework was assigned on a website called Blink learning. Blink was a f*ckin pain to figure out at first, but Lena was super lenient and worked with us to figure it out. Homework was about a module a week, but graded on completion. We had one midterm and a final. Exams were released 10 days before they were due, with unlimited tries, but timed. Best score was kept. There were about 80 questions to answer in 30 minutes for the midterm and then 70 questions in 40 minutes for the final. I took both around 10 times before I was satisfied with my grade. Overall, workload was half an hour a day plus mandatory class. Not bad at all.

Plus there's no bigger plot twist then when Lena told us "I think I found a new study tool to help you for your exam" and then Kahoot music starts playing.
