Comment:
Professor Hilevsky really cares about his students. When you take tests he will let you correct them after he grades them for extra credit because he says he "cares more about you learning than failing people." He is very kind and approachable, and I learned more from him in one quarter than I did in my final 2 years of french in high school.

Professor Hilevsky is hilarious, realistic, helpful, and extremely understanding. As long as you complete your group PowerPoint, in-class translations, and final translation projects, you will be fine in the class with his help. He's amazing and I will be taking him until I obtain a Polish minor :)

Its a phonetics class, so you pretty much just practice your pronunciation throughout the quarter. Buy a flash drive, you'll need it. He's a good professor and very intelligent, but the class and material provided to him was just a drag.

Nice guy, very easy class but lazy: he doesn't grade anything or gives the same quizzes. I wish I could have learned more though!If you're looking for an easy A, this is the class for you. If you really want learn the language, don't take his class then.

Lots of speaking in class and written assignments. No quizzes. He doesn't grade things so it's hard to say where you stand grade-wise but if you do everything and kind of participate, you should get an A. Pretty sassy and fun. PS. Don't be fooled by the chili pepper, he is not hot.

Good teacher, and you do learn, i just feel like he needs to crack down a bit more on homework and grammar, etc. I feel like I could have learned a lot more. But he is a nice guy, and really funny too. Fun class :)

Awesome! great sense of humor and makes learning French easy and fun (as long as you pay attention and aren't an idiot) He's fluent in like 6,000 languages, so try not to be intimidated by how much smarter he is than you. Also, he's big on teaching language as it's actually spoken, which is helpful. If you don't feel like doing the homework, he collects it at tests -- but he knows who studies and who doesn't. don't take him for an easy A, but if you come to class and follow along, pretty easy.

I loved Adam. He was cute and had an adorable accent (Polish I think). He really knows the language and wants you to do well in his class. He grades fairly easily and his tests weren't bad at all. The class structure got kind of boring and repetitive, but it was good for a 101 class.

He is very easy and helpful. There are 4 tests every few weeks, but they are pretty easy. There is 1 small partner project, but can easily be done. The final is a discussion with him. There are no papers. Take this class with him.

Great teacher. He takes interest in what he teachs and wants his students to succeed. If you do your work and show up to class he will give you an A.

He is a very helpful professor! I was ill during most of the quarter and I was still able to pass. He was very helpful with giving me the assigments and giving me feedback with tests and exams.
