Professor Hovhannisyan is the sweetest, most thoughtful, caring professor I have ever had. She genuinely cares about all her students and wants more than anything for us to succeed. She explained our homework during class times, so we knew exactly what to do before class next time, and the workload was very manageable and fair. We would spend class time the next day going over what was assigned to us and the correct answers (homework was graded based on completion). She was also very understanding with students who were at different levels in their Armenian language knowledge and made sure to help everyone along the way. We had an oral midterm, and it was very well explained to us what we would be asked on the midterm day beforehand. Our class discussions were all very engaging and interesting, and we often times didn't realize how fast class time flew by! Overall, best professor I've had at UCLA.
