Anna Pajak teaches in a way that helps you truly learn a language and is super supportive of learning. She explains concepts clearly and gives helpful feedback without making you feel discouraged. The class is very participation heavy and you must attend almost every class, but I honestly looked forward to this class every day.

I LOVE Anna (and the rest of the German department). She is so sweet and caring. Classes/homework/quizzes are extremely easy. There is homework every day and a quiz every Thursday, but HW takes 15 minutes tops and practice quizzes are provided the day before. If you want to take a language I would highly recommend German with any of the profs.

Anna is such an amazing and fun professor with a big smile. She brings lollipops and sweet treats often. We play games every class and you get to know our classmates. You have a short homework assignment after each class. Can't miss more than 8 classes. NO TESTS She cares more about speaking abilities rather than mastering every grammatical rule.

I had Anna for G1 through 4 and she was great. She is lenient with deadlines which can set you on bad habits if you're not organized enough, but she gives really good feedback and can help with whatever you might be confused about. She's really fun and caring. I would recommend her if you don't mind the lack of strictness.

amazing!!! i joined three weeks late and she was so considerate when letting me get caught up. she's very passionate about teaching german and is genuinely such a kind person. i've always had an interest in the language and im glad she was the one to teach it to me as i don't think i could have got a better experience learning the language!!!

If you're thinking of taking German, take it with Anna. She was such a great professor and made class every day fun! You'd get homework every day (takes like 20-30 minutes to complete) and a small test every Thursday. Great class!!!
