Reviews of professor Marina Davidson

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
Takes hours to reply to emails, gives very rude and unhelpful replies. All tests/ exams are under a time lock and it's not enough time, many students have gotten kicked out and she doesn't care. Don't use prior French knowledge, you will receive a 0 for the assignment. Looses homeworks in her email. Wait and/ or take the course with someone else!!!

Where this was an online course was pre-recorded lectures that were not done by her, she did well. She was fair in her marking of the weekly homework assignments(lots of feedback (sometimes theres more than 1 due weekly) was very understanding of the struggle that it can be to take a course in 6 weeks. Overall I have nothing bad to say about her.

Do not take basic french with Marina... it is far from basic.

Take it with another prof. She isn't clear with her quiz/test/homework questions. She expects you to know what she means without context and if you email her about it you'll be waiting a long time to hear back. She marks hard and says that using your language lab instructor is cheating on non testable material. Quizzes don't line up with homework.

Without her I wouldnt have passed my language core! Shes a fair marker, gives tons of feedback and loves helping in anyway that she can. Quick to respond to emails too. Shes all about oral exercises so be ready to speak every class, but she only does this to help us get the most out of our learning and to catch any errors. Very thick accent btw

Good prof, but talks very fast, which makes it very confusing and way to much homework. Sometimes two quizzes in a week, I don't think she realizes that students have other courses to focus on aswell it is not fair. Not posting this for hurt feelings just think should be aware.
