Reviews of professor Marie-Jo Hofmann

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
I love this professor with my whole heart, she's so caring and understanding. The class itself is pretty difficult, I'm usually the type to get all A's without much studying, but have gotten B's in her class (300 & 313 both times I've taken her. It doesn't mean she's a bad professor, it's just a decent amount of work and you have to want it.

Lots of homework. Felt bad that so many kids weren't putting in the bare min., but Hofmann could be very impatient at times. She sends emails to assign next day's homework, sometimes late. Lots of paper! Do 1-2 drafts for each essay for feedback to make corrections before she officially graded errors. Unit quizzes. Use the grammar book and rubrics!

Mme Hofmann is a great professor and does care a lot about students. She was very accommodating of my mental health this semester, and she welcomed questions in class. Sometimes I felt she expected us to excel faster than we did, causing her to joke when we would misunderstand. There was *no* ill-intent, but I felt deterred from asking Qs at times.

I love Madame Hofmann! She is one of the few professors who truly puts her students' learning first. If the class doesn't understand a topic, she will spend more time explaining it as opposed to worrying more about sticking to the syllabus. Madame is very empathetic, but also not a pushover. You will need to work hard in her class, but it pays off!

Mme. Hofmann is a really great prof, you just have to work hard and meet with her outside of class to really get to know her. This class was weird in the sense that the homework is weighted harder than anything else, so make sure to do really well on the homework and the rest should fall in place. This class seems scary but it's very manageable!

Mme. Hofmann is great! I was really worried to take this class but she's so caring about all of her students. When I was struggling she reached out to me before I got a chance to reach out to her to see how she could help. My French has definitely improved and even though the class is hard work, I would 100% take it again.

I love Madame Hofmann. She is a great teacher. I have taken pretty much all of her classes and I have learned so much from her compared to any other professor I have had. She is very kind and smart. I will miss taking her classes.
