Reviews of professor Yukie Yamaguchi-Callahan

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Any language class requires a lot of work. We had vocab quiz like every week. But she's really sweet and a lenient grader. She's also very cute when she talks about her random stories about Japan. It got really confusing at some parts but she was good at explaining. I honestly still can't believe I got an A from this class.

What a sweet woman! I believe last fall was her first semester teaching at Baruch, but she did a fine job. 5 chapter tests, 2 oral tests, quizzes and homework due every class (so don't skip!). It's a difficult language and a very heavy course, but she is a lenient grader and honestly a great professor in all aspects. Highly recommend.

I took this class in the summer and the amount of work I received every day was unbelievable but reasonable. It's a language class taught for 5 weeks, an exam is given at the end of every week, and a quiz. there is always a quiz given as homework and another quiz in person. The amount of work was a lot but she taught efficiently & I loved it.

Course is designed to help students learn everything efficiently. However, if she has ANY reason to believe you don't take her class seriously, she has an attitude and takes things personally. The way she will single out students is unprofessional. When I take notes she assumes I'm not paying attention and my participation grade is penalized, etc.

Yamaguchi-Sensei has been one of the best professors that I've had at Baruch. Very accessible by email, and is a wonderful teacher in class! She cares about her students and is highly compassionate towards them. The change to online was done very efficiently, and she has done a wonderful job this semester! I highly recommend this professor!
