Faculty Testimonials

Learn from instructors about how using MyLanguageLabs has helped them save time and improve results.

 

"MyLanguageLabs have been a tremendous learning tool for our students at a university that serves a high percentage of non-traditional and commuter students. Instead of working with a foreign language only two days a week, students now do meaningful work on the days that they are not in class. MyLanguageLabs have also helped our program to make language teaching more consistent in multi-section language classes with the result that our students are better prepared when they move to the next higher level course. MyLanguageLabs are not only a great learning tool for language students but also for our graduate student teaching associates who often use the diagnostic assessment tools to check their own knowledge of grammar and whether they are ready to teach certain grammatical structures."
— Markus Muller, Associate Professor, Language Program Coordinator, California State University, Long Beach

 

"MyFrenchLab has everything in one place. I appreciate the readiness checks as well as the tutorials and extra practice materials that give my students ample opportunity to learn French."
— Blake Carpenter, Lecturer, University of Texas-Arlington

 

"I have used MyFrenchLab to teach an online course in elementary French. It is the only online platform I would consider using. It is a complete package and offers unparalleled resources to both the student and the instructor. I feel that I have only begun to tap into the resources available through MyFrenchLab. I currently use MyFrenchLab as the online homework component for my face-to-face section of Elementary French. Students who complete the work in MyFrenchLab come to class prepared to learn. They are able to use the MyFrenchLab resources for learning, for review and for individualized instruction."
— Kathryn Lorenz, Field Service Associate Professor, University of Cincinnati

"MySpanishLab has been a great learning tool for my students and very helpful to me. Most of today's students generally love "instant gratification" and working with computers. MySpanishLab not only offers instant feedback, but it does it in an easy to understand grammar explanations by using a medium that they are very familiar with. As a professor with many classes to teach, MySpanishLab helps me tremendously. It saves me precious time of instruction that permits my concentration in other parts of the lecture. Overall MySpanishLab has been a very beneficial tool in language instruction."

"MySpanishLab is an awesome tool for my Spanish courses. The students are able to get the practice and feedback that they need while learning Spanish."

"I allow unlimited attempts on MySpanishLab activities. Students share with me that they feel empowered when they know they can make mistakes that don't directly affect their grades. They may think they are able to get an "easy A" by re-doing each activity until they earn 100%, but there is so much more involved in the process. Even seasoned Spanish speakers claim that MySpanishLab activities are their favorites because they are quick, easy ways to refresh their skills."
— Catherine Kraft, Associate Professor, Navarro College

 

"Students appreciate the opportunity to do MySpanishLab activities as many times as necessary in order to understand and master the concepts presented in each lesson. They have commented on how MySpanishLab helps them learn efficiently. They like the immediate feedback and reinforcement they receive from the online lessons and the variety of ways in which they are challenged with the different practice tests, activities, and online tutorials."
— Sandy Oakley, Adjunct Faculty, Palm Beach State

 

"With MySpanishLab, my students have a comprehensive tool with which they can perform many tasks and receive many types of support (feedback, dictionary, verb charts, tutorials, e-book, etc). Students can do homework, watch videos, listen to audio, keep informed with announcements and mail, and stay organized with the calendar feature. With MySpanishLab I can consolidate course materials, keep track of student progress, post grades, make assignments, communicate with my students, and the list goes on...! A great advantage is that I can post everything I want my students to have that I used to hand out in paper form. MySpanishLab has virtually eliminated the need for me to make copies! I can copy my course each semester avoiding the need to upload materials again. Finally, instead of re-creating courses, I simply add to them each semester."
— Anne Prucha, Instructor of Spanish, University of Central Florida
