CollegeCamilla is so kind and has such passion for the Italian language. The class I took was an online hybrid so there was a decent amount of online homework. We also had compositions and quizzes due basically every other week. No midterm and an oral final combined with a written project. Definitely requires work, but 100% worth it.
The sweetest woman ever. Very flexible, not a tough grader, and it seems like she wants you to succeed.
Super sweet and kind professor. Emphasizes that mistakes are okay during composition assignments, and has students submit them with corrections for a separate grade. Attendance is important and the class load is definitely manageable. Structured similarly to a high school class with grading based on multiple different categories. Would recommend!
Prof Fiorina was the BEST. So kind, explains things super clearly, and makes learning the language really enjoyable. Great class, would recommend to anyone.
I was a little worried taking Italian 2 in the fall after not using my Italian for the summer but professor Fiorina was amazing. The explanation of verbs and conjugations are clear and the expectations are well laid out. Would absolutely take again, just be engaged with the material!
Professor Camilla Fiorina is super kind and considerate. She really cares about you understanding and learning the language and is a very fair grader. I am glad I was able to have her as my professor for freshman year.
