ITAL1 . Borromeo C A Month Ago

She was super sweet, you will need to do a decent amount of studying outside of class because the lectures don't fully prepare you for the exams and quizzes in my opinion. But it is an easy class.

ITAL1 . 1 Year, 11 Months Ago

Super sweet and she really cares about her class. The only thing is that participation really matters, it's super easy to do well if you attend class.

ITAL1 . 2 Years Ago

Tiziana is super sweet and approachable! Her lectures are concise and simple to understand! Very reasonable amount of hw and tests were always based on what we constantly went over in class, so very easy! Final was fun and very simple! Overall, she helped me learn a lot and grow a love for the language! TAKE HER CLASS!

Tiziana is super sweet and approachable! Her lectures are concise and simple to understand. She assigns a very reasonable amount of homework! Her tests were all based on what we would constantly go over class, so they were easy! Final was fun and very simple! I learned so much in her class and grew to love the language! TAKE HER CLASS!

ITAL1 . Borromeo C 2 Years Ago

Professor Borromeo is a kind woman and clearly passionate about teaching but this class was just not it! She assigns multiple projects (individual/group) and her feedback on any work you turn in does not help you improve at all. You learn more from reading the textbook than her presentations. Would not take her class to fulfill the GE requirement.

ITAL1 . Borromeo C 2 Years Ago

Grading criteria was unclear, often went on tangents in Italian and expected beginner students to understand, quizzes were strangly formatted, poor feedback on projects, and the structure of the course was subpar.
