04/10/2025		I do not have enough praise for Herr Jensen! He is a wonderful teacher who is patient with students and encourages participation from everyone. I took 103 and wasn't planning on continuing German, but once I finished that class and learned Herr Jensen would also be teaching 203 it was an easy decision. He is almost like a fellow student in regards to how relaxed lectures are. It's a very cooperative and encouraging environment among classmates as well. The workload is really not a lot for a 4 credit class and there are plenty of opportunities to "pad" your grade with the preparation checks and discussion posts. I will say that if you do not like speaking to classmates and participating in class, you're going to have a hard time learning the language, so avoid if that's the case.

05/07/2024		I love Herr Jensen! Super friendly and down to earth. Also very accommodating for assignments. In class, we converse a lot with each other and quickly pick up on phrases. He truly wants his students to succeed by giving exam reviews and homework that involves listening, speaking, and writing. After lectures, he posts his slides so students can review any material. This course can seem challenging because you are learning a new language, however Herr Jensen makes it very easy to get immersed in the language. I would recommend this course to anyone if they are looking to take a fun class or trying something new!
