Reviews of professor Kiana Youssefzadeh

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
I really liked Kiana and am planning on taking her again for FR202. I think she's really funny and clearly cares a lot about her students. There's no midterm or final, but there's a lot of mini presentations, exams, and in-class writes that you have to do. Lots of VHL and and homework every night, but it's mostly doable.

Kiana is a kind person a heart but can come across turse and intimidating which makes for a difficult class environment to explore a new language. She is unreasonable in her grading and is very tough in her participation grade. If you are a great linguist and want to be pushed, maybe. But, for 200 level, she is discouraging at best.
