Singles out the students who have missed lectures, has not marked an assignment, stated conditions for receiving tests to be practicing a blank copy of the test and a lower mark on a test (not participation) if you leave the lecture early.

Comment:

She's not thaaaat bad. She does know her stuff about the language and culture which is good. As long as you listen, do your homework and participate, she likes you. She has an interesting personality so I didn't know until halfway into the year that she does like me

Comment:

For someone who isn't of Italian descent, Sinyor knew her stuff. If you come to class and do all the readings and homework, you can definitely get an A. There are quizzes usually every week but she tells you in advance. Not the most interesting of profs, but she's a very nice lady.

Comment:

i had a horrible experience. she picked favourites and preferred that you just drop the class rather then actually help you. i went into the class loving Italian and she made me dread it.

omg if you're not a feminist that don't bother taking her class, she has an inferiority complex and takes it out on her students for some reason

very anti-catholic and offensive to students who just want to learn the Italian language. She should leave her political ideologies at home!

Comment:

I don't like her at all. She has her favorites, and if you're not one of them, you are VERY doomed! She also does everything by the book. She will walk that book around the classroom and hold it tight or else she may not remember conjugations or other grammar rules. She does everything by the MLC and at times will email you pop quizes. Her passion

She's sweet but a little on the formal side. Her command of the language is excellent considering she's not Italian. You actually learn things with her even if you're a native speaker.

Comment:

She has her favourites and if you're not one of them beware. Dont **** up or say a wrong answer in class or she'll treat you like an idoit from that moment on. She teaches straight from the textbook and is not encouraging to students. She's very rude!

She's rude and makes her students feel stupid. She has favourites and those who she doesn't favour are the ones she makes look stupid
