Isadora Quintana SPAN204 Expecting an A Anonymous 12/18/2023	She is a relaxed and kind teacher who very much wants her students to succeed. You will do well in this course if you put in appropriate effort and show improvement over the course of the semester. Her criticism is not harsh, but I somewhat agree with the first review that the class itself – including her feedback – doesn't make you that much better at Spanish. In terms of her teaching style, it really comes down to your individual effort. However, all things considered, I highly recommend Isadora!
Isadora Quintana SPAN204 Expecting an A- Anonymous 11/30/2023	Professor Quintana is a really fun and nice teacher! That being said, her teaching didn't really help me learn the content, and the homework was often too long and not that helpful. All the homework is on McGraw Hill and automatically graded by the website, for context. Class was fine but I didn't feel like it was that informative!
Chris Lewis SPAN204 Expecting an A Anonymous 05/18/2023	Great profe, easy homework, and a really laid back class. The tests are easy and graded holistically. The homework gives you multiple tries. Would definitely recommend, even if you're a stem student and have no free time.
Marcela Risso SPAN204 Expecting an A Anonymous 12/14/2022	Loved her so much. Senora Risso was so kind and caring and always asked students input when considering what to review and you could just tell she really wanted us to do well. Out of the two Spanish classes I've taken thus far here, Senora Risso is definitely the one I'd pick again without a second thought. Her class may be a little boring at times and they are required due to departmental policy, however she does talk about really interesting things and since she is quite firm on the Spanish only teaching style, it really forces you to better your listening skills. All-in-all, I highly recommend Senora Risso if you have the opportunity to take her!
Daniela Bulansky SPAN204 Expecting an A- Anonymous 08/05/2022	A good professor who is very friendly and helps a lot with feedback. My one concern was that when I received a bad grade on the last assignment of the year which made me get an A-, she never responded to my email where I asked for feedback and didn't bump me up even though I was 1 point from an A. That was a bit bizarre but besides that she was great!
Nidia Reyes SPAN204 Expecting an A Anonymous 05/17/2022	I didn't mind this course so much it was just a bit boring. The one thing I didn't like was how different the exams were from what we were learning in class, but we only had 2 so it's not that big a deal. Lots of homework due on Fridays and Sundays which were annoying, but not hard to do well on. Class seemed to be loosely structured at times, but overall not a bad class.
Ofelia Montelongo Valencia SPAN204 Expecting a B+ Anonymous 07/21/2020	She is pretty understanding but the course goes by pretty fast and sometimes she doesn't explain things well.
Sofia Maurette SPAN204 Anonymous 10/30/2019	At first I thought she was nice and cool, but then she got meaner and meaner as the semester went on. There is an absurd amount of homework 3 times a week, the exams were hard to get an A on, and although I participated every class, she still didn't give me full participation which impeded me from getting an A in the class. Please don't take her.
Sofia Maurette SPAN204 Expecting a C+ Anonymous 09/05/2019	This was the most difficult class I have ever needed to sit through. Attendance was mandatory for pointless powerpoints that were online. Every activity was talking to your parnter in Spanish, feeling like a middle school atmosphere. There was lengthy homework assignments due before every single class. I highly recommend staying away from this professor if you want a beneficial learning experience.
