Reviews of professor Livi Yoshioka

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Prof. Yoshioka was one of my favorite profs that I had this year. She offers helpful feedback on assignments and in-class work as well as creates a welcoming environment that encourages open student participation. She is subtly hilarious and is so passionate about the interesting and thought-provoking concepts that were covered in class.

J-term is not known for doing language credit. However, she was always well organized and had a great attitude in class every day. DO NOT fall behind on homework, it will kill your grade. Study for every test, especially mid-terms, comes up quicker than you think in J-term.

Prof. Yoshioka is intimidating & expects 3x more than anyone could do at a 231 level. Classes often go over time and we only get to half the material that she plans. She assigns a LOT of homework and the assignments are difficult. She is not understanding or flexible. However, she is organized & a decent grader (if you get everything done on time).

Professor Yoshioka is an excellent professor. There's lots of homework and lots of opportunities to speak french within the classroom. Many short quizzes and a few tests. As long as you try your hardest, complete all the homework, and go to office hours, you'll succeed. The workload is intense but it's definitely worth it to learn French.

Very tough grader and huge unnecessary homework load for a mere language class. Save your time, money, and stress by taking a different professor who's actually caring and understanding towards students.

The prof is a harsh grader and assigns way too much homework for a 100-level class. She frequently seems irritated and in a bad mood whenever students ask questions and rushes us to leave her office hours.
