Very kind man however marks harshly if opinions do not match his own. Classes can be boring, and sometimes gets sidetracked.

Comment:

Not entirely helpful and likes to stick to the 'old chalkboard way of teaching'. Really cares about things being memorized and considers that to be a huge part of learning a language. Very kind man, but classes tend to become tedious and sometimes boring.

Borje has a very enthousiastic approach to the class and loves to teach. However, he likes facts a lot and does not take to opinions well if they do not match his own.

Comment:

An extremely kind man who obviously loves what he does. Understanding of film is somewhat lacking, but he blessedly admitted to it & allowed students to work at the analytic level they found most comfortable. A great intro to Finnish cinema.
