I overall thought the course was very interesting, never too overwhelming.

The class explores phonetics, syntax, semantics, morphology, psycholinguistic and more.It was useful and made learning Spanish easier for me. I also felt I had a greater understanding of not just English but all languages.

Professor Yihan Chen is very kind and helpful. Always available to answer questions and uses helpful analogies in class.

Although it is an intro course, I wouldn’t say it’s completely light work. There is a need for conceptual understanding so it’s not just memorization. Also, not many grades so be very careful to do your best on all of your assignments, as there aren’t many.
