本来就没想给英语这门课多少选课积分,随便选了个免费的E2。想不到老师还挺好的。第一眼可能会被吓到,一个又高又壮的African-American。但后来跟老师逐渐了解后发现老师非常的温柔,而且会讲很多文化相关的内容。我上过很多外教课,综合来看这个老师的教学能力还是很在线的。给分也非常给力,pre和小作文基本都是满分。

  掉课后唯一能选的老师 因为是外聘的 今年第一次在妮可讲课 没有过学长评价 所以也是开盲盒的心态去选的 一开始还是比较慌

But!真的很好。强大的控场能力能让我们很快熟悉他讲课的节奏,课堂气氛是轻松自由的,不会死板按照教学任务来讲,会拓展很多东西related to foreign culture(真的从他讲课内容和方式能直接体验到文化差异)。给分是非常宽松的,而且下课后去问问题也会给你耐心解答,不卡成绩。学了一学期还是挺感慨的 ,如果他也能教SEIII就好了♡´・ᴗ・`♡(and很有意思 他会邀请学生跟他在课间切磋国象)

选到这位美国老师的课是意外惊喜。Michael,一个当过兵,在中国呆了好像二十年,以前也在其他大学当英语老师的的美国黑人(中文特别好但是平时完全讲英语,但当他念你名字的时候就知道了)。老师有自己的原则,能感受到中美文化和价值观差异,但个人觉得通过这些能学到挺多中文老师那里学不到的东西的。上课的时候喜欢打开空白word文档,用大写字母敲出一些课堂的内容或者对我们的提醒和通知。课堂内容丰富,在按照课程要求之外,会自己安排他以前设计的一些课程内容,比如公共交通问路对话,餐厅点餐,还有发一些小论文给我们做思考阅读,补充很多当地的俗语习语。

作业就是课程要求的那些,其他基本不会有额外作业,而且给成绩分也很好,基本上完成了就过,自己这学期感觉最麻烦的就是presentation,其他作业都很轻松或者在课上老师会给时间完成。

另外michael其实很nice的,虽然一开始原则性强调了迟到旷课问题,算是给过下马威,但是后面学期他基本都不care,很宽容。

当然可能只是自己感觉挺好的,大家还是可以多听其他同学的评价。兼听则明,偏信则暗。
