While I enjoy this class I do wish she was a tad nicer when it comes to one on one discussions and in class discussion. It feels like she is constantly setting students up to fumble in class on some occasions. But then she has nicer moments after you get to know her better. I would recommed her linguistics class but not her language class.
I took this class to help me with learning chinese, as it turns out linguistics is not for me. Du老师 is a good professor, however she assigns a lot of reading and quizzes and doesn't always set clear expectations. If you like linguistics and reading, this might be the class for you.
Absolute 10/10 course -- Thomas Moran is a great professor and all around super chill guy, and the course material is extremely interesting and captivating. Go to the optional weekly screenings for sure. Mostly discussion based classes. Workload is not intense at all; if you have trouble sitting down and watching two films every week I might not recommend it, but otherwise I consider it a must-take for anybody interested in documentary. There are some essays and a final project that can either be another essay or an original documentary film.
