I took this class mainly because I am interested in the Japanese Studies major. Professor Wang is incredibly understanding and accommodating of students' needs and always ensured that her grading criteria are clear. Readings were assigned weekly alongside discussion posts.

Continued Japanese. Compared to the previous two semesters of Japanese, 103 was a leap up in difficulty for me. There was no significant difference in the way the course was taught from the previous comparison, the difficulty was the only difference. In order to stay on track, you need to practice and memorize a lot every day.

The Japanese 103 class is consistent and makes sure that you would grasp on your Japanese skills. Moreover it is fun to take. But there is constant homework since you'll need to practice on a actual skill which is speaking Japanese. Sometimes it can be challenging but with practice it will eventually come. This class is also really engaging since we learn the new material and speak the new material in Japanese a lot in the class.
