Reviews for Zhanna R Gerus-Vernola
Average Rating:| Anonymous Course: RUSS102 Grade Expected: A May 9, 2012, 1:54 pm | Zhanna is a phenomenal teacher- one of my favorite teachers thus far at UMD. She is incredibly funny and interactive with the students in class. She is extremely helpful and flexible as well. Though the course was intensive, it was a manageable amount of work; as long as you attempt the homework, you'll do very well in this class. Zhanna also went over the homework during class fairly often, which helps. She's awesome- keeps you awake and engaged in class... |
| Anonymous Course: RUSS202 Grade Expected: May 27, 2009, 1:57 pm | Zhanna is one of the best Russian professors I've had. She's so sweet and patient but she's also really good at explaining things and she makes the class so enjoyable. My only thing is I think sometimes she's too lenient. There are people in the class who definitely got an A or a B without learning anything the whole semester. It's a 5 credit class, but the amount of work is less than that of 3 credit classes I've taken. Pretty much, like any language class really, you can learn as much or as little as you want, and your letter grade doesn't really reflect this. But as a professor and a person, Zhanna is SUPER :-) |
