Course is taught directly based on the syllabus so you always know what's coming. Most of in classwork is done from the online textbook and gone over in class. Assignments were also graded in eLearn and returned very quickly. Profesora always answered emails quickly. As long as you participate and submit assignments/homework you'll do fine.

Professor Simpson gave an absurd amount of homework at times and grades every assignment instead of doing some for completion. She is very friendly and has a good system of organization. Be prepared for lots of tests, quizzes, compositions, and other graded activities. As long as you study and use your resources the class itself is not the worst.

A tough professor who doesn't speak any English so you will often get lost/confused in class. Very unapproachable and hard to communicate with. Didn't seem to like me all semester because of previous issues with missed classes, so I felt myself always playing catch up.

By FAR the RUDEST professor this school has to offer. She makes rude comments to students in front of the class, insults people, and she ADMITS to talking badly about her students with other professors. She rolls her eyes when you say the wrong thing and is not understanding to students who have a hard time with Spanish and assumes they're lazy.

Professor Ana Simpson has high expectations but you will learn a lot and she is very fair. Seemed to work with people who had any personal issues during the semester. Very clear in what she expects and sticks to her word. She is an excellent professional but if you are looking for an easy class this is not the one!

Professor Ana Simpson is the ray of sunshine in the Spanish Department. So sad that the Language Department is disappearing at Stonehill. Although my friends and I we are transferring to another great university next semester, and I hope we have this amazing professor again!. Without a doubt, I will take your class!

I adore Professor Simpson. I've had her twice and can say she is the best Spanish prof at Stonehill. It would actually be a disservice to yourself if you do not take one of her classes. She's incredibly understanding and cares more about whether you've understood/retained the reading vs just getting through it. Truly a standout SPA professor.
