Professor Levin is a very, very sweet and compassionate woman. Her accent is thick and sometimes her English is a little difficult to understand, but it hardly ever really poses a problem if you just listen to her carefully. She's a very funny and cheerful woman and will always find a way to make the class informative and entertaining.JPNS1102 2013-04-17 15:32:34 +0000 UTC
Numerous quizzes given, but all very short and easy. Suggest reviewing material before classes and practice writing. Pace may seem a little fast for some, but if you have a bit of prior knowledge you'll do well. Her English is a bit hard to understand, but she's enthusiastic and funny. Overall an enjoyable course!JPNS1101 2013-01-08 21:31:40 +0000 UTC
Her Japanese is excellent, but her English is a little...difficult to understand at times, to say the least. Must read prior to class and be ready for quizzes everyday. Tries to help students as much as she can with broken English.JPNS3101 2011-11-14 00:01:03 +0000 UTC
Levin Sensei is honestly the funniest teacher I've had in college. She speaks really fast Japanese at times, but it's not anything that'll cost you grades-wise. She teaches things clearly, and her quizzes are super easy, and don't take long to study for. Definitely recommend. I LOVE HER!JPNS1102 2011-03-29 02:05:21 +0000 UTC
Doesn't explain things clearly, has favorites, Is impatient, and you should probably learn it before hand. Assigns homework on things that haven't been taught in class. You should make friends with classmates fast, easier to figure things out.JPNS1101 2011-11-08 07:30:19 +0000 UTC
