:- 5.0 out of 5 stars from Nancy Ray -- The predecessor to Jane Eyre! : As a lifelong devotee of the Bronte's it was so satisfying to read the novel that Charlotte Bronte wrote before Jane Eyre. You could trace the threads of plot that would be developed in the later book and see her writing style when it was at an earlier point in her development. I just wish the translations of French passages were included in the book as footnotes. It's been many years since my high school French and though I could still follow some of the text I would have enjoyed it much more with complete translations. Nowadays it's hard to remember that there was a time when authors assumed all "educated" readers would speak/read French. The story explores some themes we see in later novels and also shows us a Charlotte Bronte not quite as sophisticated as the later work. ( Reviewed in the United States on September 16, 2018 )
- 3.0 out of 5 stars from Maggie -- I didn't care for this book : If you don't speak French, don't bother with this book. ( Reviewed in the United States on July 27, 2019 )
- 1.0 out of 5 stars from lady with cello -- Buy another edition : This edition of the book reads like a poor translation back into English from some other language. At first I thought it was an amusing (in the way that instructions for a new appliance can elicit bemusement) characterization by Bronte but the first person speaker is an Englishman so that made no sense. It quickly becomes tedious. ( Reviewed in the United States on March 13, 2021 )
- 3.0 out of 5 stars from BettyLou -- Rating for The Professor : The story line in this book was good and interesting, but the author writes as though all her readers speak French. I have read other books where they make entries in the dialog in another language, however after doing that they explain what was just said in that language. In The Professor, there are paragraphs and paragraphs of French dialog with no explanation as to what was said. In some instances she did explain some of the smaller sentences that were written in French which was completely acceptable reading. In one part of the book, there is almost a page and a half of French dialog, and since I don't speak or read French, I found it quite boring, and almost lost me as a reader. I do speak Spanish and since French is similar to Spanish, I was able to ascertain the meaning of some of the dialog. I think if a reader knows no other language, other than English, they would find this way of writing very unacceptable. I rated this book a three because of the above listed reasons.

- 2.0 out of 5 stars from ThatFatLady -- In 2 Words: Wordy & Dull : Way too verbose & redundant. Simply a story with no mystery or excitement. Boring. This adaptation needs to be proofread & edited accordingly. Loads of typos & unnecessary punctuation. ( Reviewed in the United States on September 25, 2019 )
- 5.0 out of 5 stars from Augusta Richards -- The Professor : I loved this story. The depth of character study is unmatched. It is actually a love story. How a man finally finds the right person for him. Writing like this is not done today. There is great detail describing the Professors thoughts and actions. I recommend this book strongly.

- 3.0 out of 5 stars from FeetMustFollow -- For a First Novel... : ...it's not bad. No one ever claimed this was on-par with Jane Eyre or Wuthering Heights (well, Charlotte apparently did say parts of it were right up there with Jane Eyre). Unfortunately, I felt like a somnambulist trudging through this, her first novel, never engaged with what was going on. Of greatest interest were the descriptions of life in Belgium. There are some intriguing moments with the love-interest portion of the story. However, I found it hard to empathize with the protagonist, making it hard reading the deeper into the novel I got. I'd stick with Charlotte's later work and the works of her sister and only read The Professor if you're trying to read them all. ( Reviewed in the United States on January 25, 2016 )

- 3.0 out of 5 stars from SusannahB -- Not Ms Bronte's Best Novel but Certainly Worth Reading : 'The Professor' was Charlotte Bronte's first full-length novel, but one that was not published during her lifetime due to it being refused by several publishers who felt that it lacked "thrilling excitement" and, as Charlotte herself noted, "Publishers in general...would have liked something more imaginative and poetical". Ms Bronte, however, was determined that her quiet bespectacled hero should be seen "to work his way through life ..[as]..real living men work theirs" and although she returned to this novel during her writing life, she was loath to make any significant changes. Based on her time teaching in Brussels (an experience she was later to return to when writing her marvellous 'Villette') 'The Professor' relates the story of William Crimsworth, who turns his back on his wealthy relations and who, after a dreadful experience working for his philistine of an older half-brother, leaves England to become a teacher in Brussels. There William meets the unassuming and seemingly meek Frances Henri, a young Anglo-Swiss woman who teaches lacework to the girls at the school where William is employed, but who also becomes a pupil of his in order to improve her English. Flirted with by Mlle Reuter, the manipulative and duplicitous headmistress who wants William's attention to herself, William finds himself in a difficult position when he begins to find the quieter charms of Frances more to his taste, and when the jealous Mlle Reuter takes her revenge on her younger and much poorer rival, William has to decide what he really wants and how he will achieve it.

- 3.0 out of 5 stars from Arandomelle -- I enjoyed the story a lot : I enjoyed the story a lot, although the main character was pretty unlikable for a lot of the time. My main issue though is that there's a lot of sections where conversations are written in French, with no translation of any kind given in the narrative. My basic school-learned French gave me enough of an idea of what was being said, but I did feel like I needed a French-English dictionary quite often!

- 4.0 out of 5 stars from Kathleen -- A very good read. : Enjoyed reading this book very much. However, felt some disappointment at he end, as it seemed 'unfinished' business. Thanks Amazon Classics! ( Reviewed in the United Kingdom on February 15, 2021 )
- 4.0 out of 5 stars from Mrs. A. Oliver -- The Professor : This is a well written book and Charlotte Bronte's first attempt at a novel. It is involved in the affairs of William Crimsworth as he finds his way in life. The budding romance with Frances, his student, is quite charming. His discoveries that people can be very dishonest, false and even cruel are a bit painful to follow. In this first novel, the pensionnat or boarding school first appears. There is a deal of religious philosophizing and description which becomes quite tedious at times. I did enjoy the read however. ( Reviewed in the United Kingdom on April 20, 2014 )
- 5.0 out of 5 stars from mrs_t -- highly enjoyable : i very much enjoyed this novel and can't understand why it has only 3 stars when it is of superb literary character. Very charlotte bronte, reminded me of vilette, with most of the novel set away from england - cue lots of french, which unless you are fluent means alot of time flicking back to the notes section. However the plot line is charming, in the introduction charlotte is said to have stated that she refused to give her protagonist an easy time, that he would have to earn his money and his wife..and that he does. It is essentially a love story from the male perspective - which is a lovely change from the austin swooning/ heart racing/ carrying on's of some novels ( Reviewed in the United Kingdom on March 14, 2009 )
