Reviews of professor Maximilian Gindorf

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 1.0/5
I LOVE MAX. He is one of the nicest professors I have ever had. His class is not hard at all and all assessments are open note. But, if you are actually trying to learn German he is definitely not as good, with open note assessments there is no motivation to study. He is very loved by his students though and would definitely take again.

Max is a younger teacher, very nice. Will help you a lot with assignments if you ask. Basically as long as you do the work you will have a decent grade. German itself is a little difficult but he wants you to do well.

Max is incredible. Hes very kind and caring. The class is very easy but there is still plenty of opportunities to learn and grow in your German skills. If you dont learn in this class, that is on you. Max provides a comfortable and relaxed learning environment. If you need to be stressed in order to learn, take someone else. Max is the best.

Considering this was a high level German class, it was mostly discussion based. The topics we talked about in class were very interesting and it was easy to be engaged. There is a little bit of homework, but he is very lenient and understanding if other obligations come up. He is very caring and very accessible outside of class. TAKE HIS CLASS!!

Easily the best German professor that I had out of the three that I took. He makes his own powerpoints that helped me learn a lot more than I had previously. He also wants to see you do well and will work with you. Great professor.

Max is hands down one of the best German professors I've had during my German undergrad degree. Albeit German is a hard language on its own, he made it really easy for me to learn. He is accessible both in and outside of class. If you want to learn German, take any German class with Max. He's the GOAT. 100% would recommend.

Awesome professor, first few classes were confusing but it gets better. He will basically give you the answer on the test or quiz if you ask for help. He's awkward which makes him really funny. Basically impossible to fail his class. I would suggest knowing someone who speaks the language because the homeworks can be hard, but tests are so easy!!
