Comment:

He is a good prof Its just that you HAVE to go over the material on your own or you wont pass. There is a quiz for every chapter and no midterm but the final is cumulative. All in all, if you're like me and can't speak french to save your own behind, make sure you read the book on your own time as well as pay attention in class.

Four quizzes, midterm, and final. participate and you'll be fine. he gives you very clear review before every exam so you know EXACTLY what will be on it. hilarious, caring guy. has an accent that can be a little hard to understand, but would definitely recommend him.

I loved Kris so much -- he is funny and he cares. He actually teaches and the activities done in class really helps you learn the material. He goes over every little detail you need to know the class before a quiz and test. I never took a quiz or test feeling unprepared. The HW online should also help you learn the material. Take him, he's great!

I dont know why he got such high rankings...he is NOT a good professor at all I would highly recommend another professor he even told my class he was mad we didn't rate him that well on those bubble scantrons...hmm be a better professor then. Genuinely does not give a **** about his students. Willy P's finest.

Dr. Kris is a great professor and overall person. Each class is different and exciting- I learn a lot and genuinely look forward to going to class. He is FUNNY and although I often find myself saying "this class isn't real life" I enjoy him, the French language, and the course very much. Take him

Comment:

Not helpful whatsoever. Gets irritated at the class when people aren't understanding certain concepts. Says "You should know this already" a lot. You basically have to teach yourself since it's a really fast paced class. Expects you to know everything in the book before you even go over it together, even if you're confused. Awful. Awful. Awful.

Comment:

Great professor. All around nice guy. He is Bulgarian, so sometimes he is a little hard to understand, and other times he translates things directly from French to English, and the sentence structure is weird. But if you ever need help, he is more than willing to help. He is always looking for new French-major recruits.

Comment:

I took French I 2 years prior to taking French II therefore, I didn't remember much. I was expecting a review the first day of class but he began where we left off in French I. I was completely lost to say the least but, he helped me constantly. I should've failed the course but passed me with a "C" so I wouldn't have to re-take it. Great Guy!

Awesome guy. Really laid back in class, lets us call him Kris. Loves to joke about how bad his english is and how different our country is from France and such. Gives out great help when you need it. Definatly a great teacher if you never knew an ounce of french before this class.

I had this class and it was easy. His tests are pretty easy if you study for them, and he's funny too. As long as you do your work you'll do fine. If you want to do good in a french class take him!
