Your exams will be returned to you with circles around your mistakes.
It will be your responsibility to correct your own mistakes using the text book and class
notes. Students are expected to correct their exam errors (you can also do this on
a separate sheet). The corrections must be returned to the instructor the following
class. If the mistakes are still present, the instructor will provide feedback.
Absolutely no make-up quizzes, tests, and examinations will be given; re-writes will
ONLY be granted with a valid medical excuse. A make up test should be scheduled
before or on the same day the instructor returns the test.
*E-mails from students to the instructor: E-mails should be sent ONLY when students need
to contact me for an urgent matter, or to make an appointment. If you have queries, please
come to see me during my office hours, or make an appointment.
*Electronic Devices: Please turn off all computers and cell phones in class as they distract other
students.
*Please remember that this is a language course. Drinking is okay, but eating during class will
not be permitted.
