Tatiana Smorodinska
RUSS
Great course, I would highly recommend. The homework (mostly movies, short writings, and readings) is interesting and the class itself is super relaxed with fun discussion. Professor is very accommodating and supportive. My Russian has definitely improved, as has my understanding of Russian history, culture, politics, and current events. Again, I would highly recommend this class!
My favorite class this semester. We prepare for class by reading historical fiction and watching films. Class is mostly discussion of what we read and watched, guided by Tatiana Eduardovna. These discussions are very interesting and always filled with fascinating anecdotes and stories from her experiences or past. I feel like I learn a lot every class. Would recommend 10/10
