Comment:
She's really sweet and, but the class is chaotic. We never follow the syllabus and sometimes assignments are posted without her saying anything, but as long as you check canvas regularly you should be fine. I would definitely recommend her for any French class because she's super understanding and doesn't make you feel guilty about wrong answers.

Madame Poindexter is great. She isn't a great grader, and doesn't give a lot of feedback on your quizzes or writing assignments. However, if you pay attention to the readings and lectures, this class is an easy A. Make sure you get the textbook, she uses it every class. Don't bother emailing though, she will forget or not respond.

Flora was such an amazing Professor. She cares so much about her students and it really shows. She is very understanding and a fantastic woman. The only thing is that she is quite literally impossible to access outside of class. She never responds to emails. But this was still the best class despite that. Highly recommend any class with her.

This class was fine. There were a few group projects throughout the semester in addition to many small assignments. She was a fine teacher, but honestly not great at communicating. Assignments would just.. appear on Canvas with no annoucement or mention in class sometimes. She's good though, super nice!

Poindexter was great. Never took French before but she makes the course easy and is always willing to help. Show up to class and pay attention and the homework will be a breeze. Attendance counts towards your grade but you do get four excused abscences. Very flexible and kind.

Take if you need a language as a requirement, as I ended with a B- and never knew what she was saying. Her class consists of mandatory attendance, easy online homework, few written homeworks, 3 exams, a project, and an oral final out of class. pretty easy but never really explained what we were learning in class so never get much out of this class

She is a really nice teacher. I love my class. It is easy to get a good grade in her class. I haven't take class before, so French is hard for me. She is helpful.

She is so sweet and I'm very glad I got her as my professor for fren since I'm just taking this as a language requirement, I love my class. Tests get harder and harder. Attendance mandatory. Very bad at putting in grades, mistakes a lot of grades and it'll take weeks of asking her to fix it before she does which can be very annoying.

Poindexter is super sweet, she makes this class really easy. I took french in high school so it was an easy A but it would be easy if you've never taken french before either. Make sure you get a textbook, you'll need it. All homework is online and easily done in 10 minutes.

Flora is the sweetest lady. I haven't taken french before but I found it to be pretty easy with her. She's a native speaker so she also fills you in on proper french culture which is really cool and her quizzes are very straight forward. You should participate in class; it'll really help you on the exams and with pronunciation.

She was a kind professor. I took this class over winter, so the material was condensed. We had a partner presentation, one oral exam, two written exams, and weekly quizzes. There were also in-class assignments. Attendance is mandatory, at least for winter session. She wanted me to succeed.

liked her as a teacher, but she needs to realize this is 105, not a 200 level class. basically from the beginning starts speaking in almost all french, because thats her first language. for first time french students that is hard bc she doesnt translate what shes saying back to english.

Such a nice woman and is super passionate about her work! You don't have to submit the online homework on time but make sure it is done before each test (thats when she grades the hw). Participate and come to class because she assigns group assignments that can improve your grade.

Prof. Poindexter is very nice and understanding. There is very little assigned homework (online Heinle). As long as you study the vocab on your own, you can get a good grade. Often she will have graded classwork (10pts), especially when attendance is low, so come to class. The exams aren't bad, and the oral exam was easy. Take this class!

Super nice. Sensitive to those who havent taken french in a while. Buy all the books, show up, do the homework. Lots of group work in class. Exams are fair but weigh heavily on your grade. Oral exam is not stressful. She provides great feedback. She virtually never calls out people in class, so if youre shy she's a great prof to take.

Madame Poindexter is the sweetest person and a good French teacher. She puts the homework on the syllabus but never asks for it so just turn it in when it's due. She lets you do rewrites on written assignments and her tests aren't too hard. You work in small groups almost every class and for your oral presentation.

I loved this class! Everything was clear, just make sure you keep up with the homework on the syllabus. You can hand it in whenever you want. but she won't announce it. Tests were very fair, and overall I really enjoyed this class. Would recommend Madame Poindexter to anyone!! Such a nice lady and great at teaching!

Madame Poindexter is the sweetest lady. She is SO kind and helpful. I had her class 3 days a week at 8 am and I didn't mind going because she is always so nice and happy. I took this class my first semester freshman year, so she was one of my first ever college professors. If I can have teachers half as great as her in the future I will be pleased!

She's an awesome professor. She's never cares when you turn in the homework, just as long as you turn it in at some point. Tests are very easy if you participate and do your work and follow the syllabus. I think a lot of freshman don't understand the importance of the syllabus so they end up not getting the grade they expected.
