Reviews of professor Anastasiia Gordiienko

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
It was a really engaging and fun class. There was a lot of reading but it wasn't hard to keep up. Only thing that I didn't love was the group project at the end of the year as I got stuck with a partner that didn't do anything and I lost points on it because of his lack of effort.

Dr. Gordiienko is a very intelligent, strong, and caring professor. She treats her students with respect and good humor. She was very clear and very interested in the course material. She was very helpful and gave excellent feedback on papers. I have really enjoyed this class and will continue to seek out classes led by her that go with my major.

Easy A if you show up to class and take notes. Quizzes every class, 4 small papers, midterm, final and a group project. Midterm and final are open note and not cumulative. Professor is so sweet and passionate ab her subject. Quite a lot of readings for hw but as long as you do the hw you'll be good. Course themes are really unique and interesting.

The best course ever (and I don't even too much fond of sports)! Doping, Olympic cheating, military training, KGB surveillance, and sweat, blood, tears, and medals! take this course!

For a language class, Gordienko was great. If you aren't comfortable with heavy class participation, this isn't the class for you. There were about 7 tests (2 verbal, 5 written) and homework every day. You are probably going to have to spend a lot of time studying outside of class. Gordienko was tough, but clearly cares and is kind.
