Great Italian prof

GREAT Professor!! I loved her class. She is so sweet and makes a great connection with her students. Awesome at teaching Italian.

Best language teacher I've had here. I loved this class and everyone who took the class was really engaged. She was so kind and clear and she is also from Italy. I learned so much. Also, people were not lying she is literally the best dressed professor ever.. It doesn't matter that much but I was genuinely inspired. Thanks Professor Crickette!

Maria cares about all of her students and wants everyone to succeed! Her in-class activities were really helpful and engaging, and the homework is straightforward as well. The big assignments are 4 quizzes on canvas and 3 written compositions, final was a 3-minute conversation with a partner. Maria wants everyone to succeed, 100% recommend her!!

Professor Crickette was truly a magnificent teacher. She is beyond helpful and caring for her students, and she is so patient as we make mistakes and take time to understand the material. She is so enthusiastic about Italian, and that is reflected into the students and their participation. She has inspired me to further pursue Italian at UCSB!

Maria Elena is super caring and sweet. Really enjoyed her class! Go and chat with her, and she will tell you how to cook amazing authentic pasta!
