Dr. Randall is absolutely wonderful! If you put in minimal effort, you can do well. If you're having personal problems, tell her and she'll help you out. Improved my French but didn't have to do all of the homework. Glinda the Good Witch of French!

Comment:

Randall is very nice, really interested in her students, & if you tried in class was really easy. However she was too enthusiastic at times & didn't know when to back off. I should have failed; I was completely lost in her class (I literally didn't pass one test) but she gave me a C- because she new I was only taking the class to meet the core.

Comment:

I dreaded attending this class, and I hated doing all of the work. Homework each night takes two hours, and it's absolutely ridiculous things. I also heard that she curved your grade at the end, and she didn't change mine one bit.. I ended up with a C-! This KILLED my GPA. Ugh, I loathe this woman.

Comment:

Such a nice teacher! She gives a lot of homework, but it only takes an hour or so. Taking her has led me to consider minoring in French. Her explanations are clear, and she'll use English if you're still having trouble. Don't miss any tests or quizzes, though, because you can't make them up.

Comment:

Professor Randall will try her best to be helpful, but she doesn't spend too much time on any one subject. You have the responsibility to keep up and stay on task. Her class is definitely not easy, and she grades oddly. I had nothing but B+'s all semester, but she gave me an A for my final grade!

Prof Randall is nice, but she leads you on to think you are doing so well- and assures u there is no need for extra credit, then u get ur grade and u think...????? only take her if you have to. she is disorganized and misleading

Love the lady! Workload is heavy, but as long as she knows you're putting effort into it, she's very understanding, tough grader but fair. Participate and do well on the journals, you'll be fine.

Really energetic. Stern, but fair grader. You can get away without doing most HW if you can think quickly off the top of your head. Easy to talk to outside of class.

She is very demanding. Her homework load is heavy but it is merely busy work. You must do your homework and her tests are kinda hard. Enter at your own risk.

A hard-core teacher, but she definitely knows her french. Demands good work, but is very nice (extra credit and re-writes available!)Just pay attention in class, do the homework, try to speak some french phrases, and you'll do fine.
