16. Other comments:
|
| Professor Vitiello's historical and cultural knowledge of China coupled with his relaxed,interactive teaching style made for a very enjoyable course. In the coming semesters I will not hesitate to take another course taught by him. |
| Glad that I took this course and am hoping to take future literature courses
from Professor Vitiello in the future |
| In all, it was a good informative class. It wasn't a piece of cake, but you need to expect that from literature courses. Some of the stories were fun, though. |
| I enjoy Professor Vitiello's courses as this is the second one I've taken from him. I would recommend him to anyone interested in this subject matter and would take another course from him as well. |
