Summer 2020 - I took this class during the corona summer so it was quite different than the professors were used to. I personally was in LaTasha Clay's section (the entire class was split up into smaller discussions of about 8 students each between Ben, LaTasha, and Jennifer Marfino) and I absolutely adored her. The class was listed from 9:30am-3pm, but the actual class time was pretty short. Ben would post the lecture video (around 15-20 minutes long) at 9:30 each morning and you could watch it at your discretion, then you would attend section for 50 minutes at your assigned time (for us, either 1-1:50pm or 2-2:50pm). Ben always made sure to keep things fun by doing different group activities or games to study too, like jeopardy and family feud. The only thing about the class that was bit tougher (though still not super difficult) were the homework assignments. Twice a week we'd be assigned worksheets that were all pretty lengthy (classmates mentioned the optional textbook/workbook recommended for the class was very helpful). They would be posted at 9:30am and due by 12pm, which was a bit of a time crunch given the length, but homework wasn't weighted too heavily. We had weekly quizzes too, which were often easier than the worksheets. Also, Mariam, the class interpreter and tutor, will be your best friend! She is so sweet and a tremendous help with anything, from vocab to presentations to class logistics. Ben, LaTasha, Jennifer, and Mariam are an incredible team and so understanding and compassionate towards their students. Overall this was a super easy and super inspiring class, and I would highly highly recommend taking it with Ben!
