I was pretty nervous to take French at the college level, but Rachel immediately put me at ease with her warm spirit. She pushes her students, while also giving them the space to make mistakes, and it's this balance that makes her such an amazing professor. This is one of the most rewarding classes I have taken so far in my college career.

Rachel is a gem. She has an attention to detail in grading that gives clear feedback and advice on how to move forward. As someone who struggles with anxiety and depression, she's also been extremely understanding and sympathetic to my academic needs. She's attentive and willing to work with each student to ensure their individual success.

Professor Watson's class is truly one of the best Texts and Ideas you can take at NYU. The readings and films were extremely interesting and she makes a huge effort to ensure everyone understands the material. Her TAs were also amazing but they do grade on the harder side so be sure to attend office hours and not procrastinate.

Great professor! So sweet and caring but the only thing I have to warn about is that she often goes a couple minutes over the end of class (so don't have a class immediately following or else you will probably be late) and she says what the homework is in class and doesn't post it so make sure you are listening.
