Advanced Reading and Writing Skills . GER 106
Focus on the development of advanced reading and writing skills in German. In particular, we will draw on a variety of authentic materials to develop students' ability to analyze and produce a range of genres; enhance students' awareness of pre-, during- and post-reading strategies and how to apply them to different styles of writing; improve use of strategies to help students become more autonomous readers/writers; and develop critical skills for reading, comprehending, and writing different types of texts.

I love Kelsey! She's so kind and thoughtful and makes class genuinely interesting and fun. You have a homework sheet every day, but it doesn't take too long and is actually helpful. Quizzes every Thursday, but she also provides a practice quiz that accurately reflects what'll be on it, so it's easy to study for.
Kelsey is by far my favorite professor Ive had at UCSB and has made my german learning experience so easy and fun. Extremely kind, doesnt judge, easy but fair grader, and patient. These classes are an easy A if you do the daily homework and show up to class. Homework is also easy and well thought out and she makes excellent quizlets to study from
Best teacher and best class!
most down to earth Professor ever :) even tho I really struggled this quarter she was really helpful and supportive while still being fair with the grading
