She is a very sweet teacher. Her class is very fun. Attendance is required but its a fun class, you won't mind going.
Great professor!! I've only taken graduate classes with her, but she's one of the best at UNT. She's interesting and definitely knows her stuff!
No Comments
This professor is fantastic! She is tough and expects a lot from her students but thats because she gave alot to us. I was bombing the first few quizzes she gave and she called me in her office. I felt like a little kid in trouble but she was super sweet and helped me. I went from F's to makin an A on the final exam. The best teacher UNT has!!
Great class!!!!
The material was difficult but she explained it with enthusiasm. I learned a lot from her and I highly recommend any class she teaches.
She is amazing!!!she goes above and beyond so you understand material! She is one of the best!!!
Amazing. Very clear, extremely enthusiastic, and interesting! Highly recommend this teacher. Listens to all comments and learns from students as well as amazing teaching style!
Do not waste your money, you wont learn a thig!
:) Great view!
AMAZING teacher!!! She explains everything thorough in a format that everyone can understand. She isn't one of those out to fail you but instead does everything possible to help the student succeed as well as understand the material of the class.
GREAT TEACHER! easy on the eyes and super knowledgeable. Only two test, I failed the first one but I think I'm still getting a B overall for the class. She's considerate of your proficiency which I loved. Definitely recommend her as long as your willing to read and study a little.
Great teacher. Interesting subject matter and great movies, especially Jamon Jamon!!
Very professional and teaching style very uptempo and easy to understand. I give her an A++!
I've taken a class with her three different times and she is amazing! Always helpful and every course she's taught is really interesting. The only way to fail is by trying to do so and as long as you're on top of everything it's really easy to make an A. Attendance is mandatory so dont take it if you're prone to skipping. Highly recommend it!
Probably the best professor I've had thus far at UNT. She is helpful, fun, passionate about the subject she is teaching about :) awesome overall teacher!
She is an amazing professor! The class is supper fun and the films are pretty funny and interesting for the most part. The only thing I didn't like was that the book had to be purchased and shipped from Spain, there were difficulties obtaining it from the publisher. I had to cancel my order because it took so long,I just shared with a classmate.
The class was great! I love watching movies so this was perfect for me. I did not like the book. The readings were very long and boring, but a chapter a week is doable.
Best teacher ever! She is sooo sweet and understanding. Will really work with you and do the best she can to explain what you need to do to pass.
great teacher. teaches interesting subjects. very knowledgeable about subject matter. arrives to class on time and is always prepared. makes learning fun.
several complaints: 1. teacher assigned books that are out of print and can only be found in Spain for a high shipping fee. 2. speaks to non-Hispanics students EXCLUSIVELY in English. 3. is quite abrasive with the students at times demanding her way or no way. 4. refuses to schedule private conference with students...NOT recommended!
She is an excellent educator! She is fair and creates a pleasant learning atmosphere. She is knowledgeable of the subject matter, professional, and is always willing to go an extra mile to help her students achieve success. She will accommodate if class materials are difficult to find. Although, the majority of the class instruction is in Spani
She will speak English to emphasize important concepts. I highly recommend this professor and I plan to take her courses again. Although, her method is challenging, it allows for considerable student growth. After all, this is a graduate level course.
She is a wonderful professor. She is clear of her expectations and she knows what she is teaching. I would recommend her because she is an excellent professor. She is the best professor I have had in my graduate career. A+
One of the BEST professors at UNT!! She is incredibly helpful, insightful, enthusiastic, intelligent & passionate about teaching. She is ALWAYS available to talk w/students outside of class, is very fair, & goes out of her way to help students understand the course requirements & material! HIGHLY recommended! Have taken her every chance possible!!
She is awesome, and that's an understatement. She's extremely helpful, but she DOES require you to work. All in all, I loved her class.
She's Awesome. She makes it easy to speak up and give your opinion on the topics of discussion. Attendance is mandatory, but the class is enjoyable so your time spent is not miserable and asleep.
I enjoyed every day in this class because of the teacher. She is very warm and open and does not hold everyone to the same standard. She understood that everyone comes from different levels and tried to help all of us improve instead of expecting everyone to be fluent. She is also very full of energy and did her best to make the class fun.
She is super nice and understanding, the only thing is that sometimes she would be late to class or forget about certain assignments, which could be frustrating when I was waiting to give a speech but it was postponed 2 weeks. Other than that, she gave us a pretty good challenge in conversing in Spanish. Could have been more difficult but thats me.
The course work was interesting and she demonstrated knowledge. When in doubt ask.
Incredibly helpful professor - always presents information with obvious interest. I would strongly recommend any class taught by her. Attendance is extremely important, and hard work/participation is invaluable to the final grade.
Dr. S-C is a gem that should be treasured by UNT. Her intelligence & vast experience is felt during class, creating a situation where the students want to be there & learn from her. She compliments the textbook with films, regional dances and exercises that blow textbook learning away. I'm sad that I am graduating and can't take her film courses!
Awesome professor.So passionate about her subject area that it is contagious. I went in with little interest in the subject matter and by the end was totally converted. She is very clear and thorough and very accepting of others' views. If you desire to be challenged and learn something new, definitely take her class!
Must be very proficient in Spanish before taking this class, but she is a great professor and the course is easy if you are.
very great teCHER SHE IS WONDERFUL AND VERY HELPFUL strongly recommend her and she is extremely easy
Choose this class! :) she is such a great professor. Passionate and knowledgeable about the course content. As long as you come to class every time and keep up with the movie questions, you'll be good!
The professor is amazing at explaining the material. The films are always interesting and she is very fair. I really enjoyed having this class this semester.
The class I took was Spanish through Cinema. At first, the theme of Spain culture seemed a bit boring. But now I can say, I learned a lot about Spanish culture after Franco. I learned to appreciate the culture and class. Professor Sanches-Conejero, was an awesome, down to earth, and intelligent teacher! You won't regret taking her!
If you arent fluent in spanish do not take it! but she will help you thoroughly so that you make an A!! Fun active learning in her class!
This teacher is amazing! She truly has a passion for what she does and she is clear on what she expects. Coursework is not overwhelming and it is very manageable. She keeps the class interesting and shows her personality...something that I would like to see from all professors.
She is so wonderful, both as a professor and person. Taking her classes is always such a joy for me and I have also learned a lot from her. This course in particular was very interesting and a nice change from a lot of the other (kind of dull) elective courses offered at UNT
This is a very passionate and energetic professor who obviously loves the subject she teaches. She always maintains positive energy in the classroom which makes class time much more enjoyable. She is also very good at engaging with her students and making them feel comfortable to participate. I would recommend her class to anyone!
Excellent teacher! Very passionate about the class which can make it rub off on you!
Cristina is fantastic! She is very understanding and creates a fun learning environment. I talked about all of her film selections outside of class and she made me want to come to class. I never missed her class. I really enjoyed the way she combined history lessons with really cool movies.
She's awesome!!!
Great professor!
Fantastic teacher! Interesting material and a great experience. Don't think twice about taking any of her classes. You're welcome.
Dr. Sanchez-Conejero is a great professor and will encourage you to do your best. Make sure to participate.
Cristina is such an awesome professor! The content she teaches is very interesting and applicable to not only cinema but also literature. She explains it very clearly and in an organized way. She is very understanding and helpful.
She is a very prepared professor
The professor is very knowledgeable and passionate about the subject area. She is very clear and concise in what her expectations are but if you do what is expected the class is very enjoyable. She makes the subject very interesting and I've learned so much this semester. I would definitely recommend taking a class with her.
Christina is a wonderful person and professor. She has great passion for her subject and therefore constantly engages the class. She is very clear about her expectations and is always willing to clarify any questions you may have. It was a very nice experience having her for my first graduate course.
Cristina was an excellent professor. I liked the layout of the class, and she was very knowledgeable about her field. I thoroughly enjoyed the class.
Cristina's classes are fascinating and inspiring. She is an expert in her field. You will learn a lot from her and probably want to continue learning after the class is over. I only wish I also had the chance to take an undergraduate course with her as well, but am glad to have had that experience now as a graduate student. Wonderful professor.
One of the BEST professors I've had at UNT!! She is incredibly smart, insightful, enthusiastic,and passionate about her area of specialization. She is very accessible to students and is very fair. I wish I could take all her graduate level classes.
She's a great teacher. As long as you know the vocabulary words you'll do fine on tests.
Great teacher! She knows the material really well and as longest you do your work you should be fine!
This class is super easy. take it. if you have a heartbeat and are decent in Spanish, you'll make an A if you go to class everyday.
Awesome teacher ooo la la...very interesting class! Great if you want to be immersed in Spanish with a Spain accent.
Cristina is THE BEST. Don't take an upper level Spanish course at UNT without taking her!
Great professor, interesting class!
Her film class has probably been my favorite class! Take her, you wont regret it.
Professor is super helpful and nice. The quizzes are for the most part easy and the essays are about the same, just be sure to know where accents go.
Professor is super nice and knows what she is talking about. Enjoyed the movies we watched during class, and would definitely recommend this class.
She is very easy on the test
was fun. 10/10 would do again.
Christina Sanchez-Conjero is amazing! She has a positive attitude throughout the entire semester which makes the class enjoyable. Exams are not crazy hard as long as you watch the films and answer the questions she provides. Essays are based on opinions of the film. She tries to help students I would take it again!
AMAZING professor. Very fun class. She makes it interesting and super funny. It's very easy in my opinion. My lowest grade was like a 95, but attendance is pretty important.
She is very helpful, and made learning about the history of Spain and its culture, entertaining as well as interesting.
She is pretty cool. The course is difficult if you are taking it and you are a minor but you can get through with enough studying.
go to class and you'll do fine
The class is a little difficult at times but she always take the time to repeat if you don't understand.
The course is pretty difficult if you do not have a good grasp on the Spanish language. The films speak in Spanish really fast and hard to understand all of what they are saying. The teacher is really cool and helps you out a lot.
If you work hard enough you will pass. It's hard to understand her if you do not speak Spanish fluently but you can get through with context clues. Overall it's a difficult class for a minor in Spanish.
Cristina is probably my favorite professor. I have enjoyed all of the classes I've taken by her because they are stimulating and I am able to learn so much. I like her class structure and think she is very professional. I would definitely recommend taking any and all classes with her if possible!!
Professor explained materials well. Class was fun to attend.
It has been a disappointing class. I loved her film class, but this one had poor structure. My advice is to avoid her novel classes and take her cinema classes.
One of the best professors we have, she has helped me grow a great deal as a Master's student thanks to her expertise and professionalism. Without her extensive knowledge on the latest critical literary theories and texts, this department would be lacking tremendously. Tenacious, intelligent professors like Dr. Sánchez deserve far more recognition.
One group presentation, 2 exams and that is your grade. Overall if you go to class and paid attention to the films and lecture you will pass the exams. The exams do not have alot of questions and they are not multiple choice. Very easy class if you pay attention. The Presentation is easy.
The Professor provided the material in a helpful and clear manner. If you watch the movies, and listen, you will ace this class.
This was a very stimulating class that consisted of two exams and one group presentation. The movies were great. If you pay attention, take notes, watch the movies, you'll pass with a good grade!
She works well with the students to make sure they understand what is needed for class. Very outgoing and easy to discuss with the teacher with anything .
This class was great. I learned a lot from the movies and the notes. The professor is very helpful and useful. We just had two exams and one presentation.
Dr. Cristina is amazing! She is from Spain (Super Cool). Her methods of teaching are very fun and very interesting. She cares for students. Make sure you are on time. Participate in class. Take notes of everything she writes in the board, it will be on the test. 1 group presentation and 2 exams, only a few homework. Easy class!! You'll love it!!!:)
This class is very fun and entertaining!! 2 exams, 1 group presentation. You'll watch a lot of fun movies(very entertaining), which the tests will consist on. (Very easy exams). Make sure you participate in class. Dr. Cristina is very helpful and fun!!! Easy class, you'll learn a lot about the Spanish culture through movies. You'll enjoy this class
I loved her class so much, she is very sweet and helpful. You will watch a lot of movies (they are so great! and interesting!) Attendance is mandatory, because she grades your participation as well, there are so many opportunities for points in class. I took the online course, and it was very doable, you will have to do a presentation in the end.
If you're anxious about Spanish & speaking it, she's the best professor to take. The in-class speaking is VERY minimal, you mostly speak altogether as a class or in pairs. She spends the majority of class sharing personal stories or is teaching! She is super sweet, caring, and understanding and will bring snacks/treats whenever she can!!
I love this professor because she is really easy to work with about missing quizzes and exams. Attendance is mandatory because she uses it as a participation grade. My only issue is that she moves really quickly in class, as she mainly speaks in Spanish for class. Take notes and then add on to them with your own understanding and textbook help.
