Just show up to class every day cuz that's where you learn what you really need. Homework is kinda heavy not because she assigns a lot but because the assignment is on a website called MHE Connect( You DON'T Need to Buy the Textbook) the Textbook is on this website as well, the assignments give new questions till you pass. Which is time consuming.

She is prompt, energetic, humble and has clearly used Spanish fluently for many years. She alternates between lecture and various activities which keeps class fun and reinforces the material.

She's a great teacher, however, she has a tendency to have very unrealistic ideas of how quickly you should be able to do the work at home. Also, it can be difficult at times with the homework as it typically contains stuff that she hasn't even taught as she expects you to go teach it to yourself with the textbook.

Great semester with Professor Lopez, she's available for any questions and concerns. The class is doable but also heavy homework assignments so make sure you read.

I think this professor was pretty good at explaining the instructions when need be. She seems to grade a little hard, but that can be good if you want to learn to speak Spanish correctly.

Professor Lopez is hands-down the best Spanish teacher I've ever had. This class was not easy, but the way she teaches makes learning a new language enjoyable. Never before have I learned all of my classmates names and got know each one of them. She brings something special into her classroom, and I was bummed when the semester ended.

Profesora Lopez is a great professor. I took her Spanish 202 class online during the Fall semester as a dual enrollment student in high school. While it is a difficult class, Profesora Lopez provides many useful resources and helpful tools. She also has prerecorded lectures to go along with the textbook material which are useful for taking notes.

Professor Lopez does oral interviews ever 2 weeks or so which is a one on one talking time. She replies to emails in a timely manner and is there to help her students with whatever they need. The assignments although long, are super beginner friendly. The online textbook is typically 30-40 pages long, there are songs to listen to with quizzes too.

Taking Spanish class was definitely a challenge, but it was absolutely doable with effort and dedication. There is an oral final exam, but the teacher created such a comfortable and supportive environment that it wasn't as intimidating as I thought it would be. This class is an excellent way to improve your speaking skills. Highly recommended!

Professor Lopez was a very rational and very encouraging professor. When I fell behind due to personal issues she gave me a second shot at the test because I was occupied. You just have to put in the work and it can be an easy class it all up to how much effort you put in.

Lopez was great! There are modules every week, you get a week to complete them. It's managable if you space it out. You get assigned a group to meet with once every two weeks for a short zoom. The tests and quizzes are easy as long as you do the hw! And she gives you all the material you need to have prepped for the two oral exams. Highly recommend

Professor Lopez is amazing! Her teaching was organized and straightforward, and my Spanish has improved a ton. She wants all of her students to succeed and is very nice/approachable. There is a good amount of homework in this course, but since it was completely online and roughly 90% Asynchronous, I think the courseload was very reasonable.

This instructor wants you to be successful in her class. She is supportive and fun to learn from. She uses lecture, slides, music, videos, and pop icons from the Spanish speaking world to teach language and culture. Online version of the textbook was very helpful. I enjoyed class a lot. I look forward to taking Spanish 202 from her next term.

I won't lie, this class had a heavy workload, but the instruction was always clear, and I was always given sufficient time to complete the week's work. I would take her class again. As long as you are responsible and stay on top of your homework it shouldn't be too difficult. Notes were a life-saver. Attending the online meetings were important.
