Israel is an excellent prof. He explains things very well and makes literature more comprehensible. His class can be difficult, but its also a lot of fun. I would absolutely recommend him to anyone interested in Spanish lit.

Dr Sanz is a great professor. I enjoy coming to his class a lot!! He is fun, and makes us interact a lot in class, which is great. Take him! :)

A great professor, very clear and dedicated, helpful in office hours, organizes lots of interactive things to do in class.

This class was so easy. It may be difficult if you have never taken spanish because he speaks no English.. still loved the class

One of the best professors I've ever had. The information may sometimes be hard but he makes sure that no student leaves without everything being perfectly clear and understood. Always gives you what you deserve.

He is the best kind of language teacher you could ever want. He teaches all in Spanish but he uses words that you are familiar with to teach you new things. The homework was incredibly easy, as long as you do it and the class work then the quizes and tests are just as easy. Over all he is one of my favorite teachers!

Like the other raters, I think Dr. Sanz is one of the best professors you could ever have. He is certainly the best I've ever had. Anyone who rates him harshly must be a bad student and have a grudge b/c Dr. Sanz won't let you get away with being lazy or irresponsible. And he will challenge you. It's so refreshing! You learn so much with him!

Great Professor, spanish i always had to work really hard at, Prof. Sanz is really a great teacher. Hes very funny and makes class enjoyable. Quizzes arent that hard but study vocab. Alot of group work, although annoying really does help. Very approachable.

Awesome professor!! He makes class fun and interesting. He is a very funny and nice guy. I wish I could take his courses for 202 and beyond. I HIGHLY recommend him. Just keep up with the HW and know your stuff a little before you come in. He is very helpful when you ask questions and make an effort.

This is the best professor I have ever had. He is extremely patient and helpful and will explain anything you do not understand. Every class he has multiple activities for us to do to make it fun.

He is a great teacher, hilarious, and always there willing to help/explain things to his students. Although I don't find the subject of linguistics all that interesting he makes it fun and I actually look forward to class. There's quite a bit of homework but he doesn't grade on correctness and the tests are relatively easy if you study the guide.

He is an incredible teacher. He genuinely wants his students to do well. He assigns the reading, may/may not quiz you on it, assigns homework (graded for completion, not correctness), and tests you on it. There are extra credit opportunities. Take him if at all possible!! He makes an otherwise difficult class enjoyable!

In the beginning I regretted taking this class because none of it made sense to me, but he seriously cares so much and genially wants his students to do well. He really is helpful and as long as you do your reading, pay attention in class, GO TO CLASS and ask questions if you're in school you will do well. I recommend taking him 100 %

There is not enough praise in the world for this man. Dr. Sanz is by far one of West Chester's most incredible professors! The material is so dense, but his genuine interest in it and the all of the help he has to offer makes the material much easier to absorb. He's hysterical too! Take him!

I can't agree more with the previous comments. Dr. Sanz is more than willing to help anyone, seriously he doesn't want you to fail. You MUST go to class and buy the textbook or you will be lost. He class definitely isn't an easy 200 level course however he won't let you fail.

Not the easiest in the world, but very, very helpful. Make sure you learn the very basic stuff in the beginning because simple mistakes will cost you a lot of points.

He is a really nice and cool guy and understands as long as you try. If you answer a question on a quiz or test that isn't exactly right, but still considered close to the answer, he'll give you the credit. Always be present and participate as well.

Sanz is hilarious, he makes Spanish fun. Sometimes his activities can get monotonous, but overall, a really enjoyable professor. He is a fairly lenient grader and teaches at a good pace. I wish I could have him for every Spanish class.

Dr. Sanz is great. He really, really knows his stuff, and linguistics is a tough subject. If you're looking for an easy A, this is not the right teacher for you. But if you want to learn and understand linguistics, take Sanz. He's awesome. When you get confused (when, not if), ASK QUESTIONS. He will answer each and every one.

Great professor, he definitely kept me entertained and laughing during class always. His class can be challenging though, but if you do exactly what he tells you to, you'll do fine on tests. Homework/pop quizzes are also important and can really affect the grade, so make sure you read when he tells you to!

Dr. Sanz is the best! The class is not easy, but he is very good at explaining if you don't understand. Answers his email day and night and genuinely wants his students to do well. Would definitely take his other classes. Not bad to look at either ;)

Dr. Sanz-Sánchez is another one of the Department of Language and Cultures' best faculty. This was the first time he taught this class and it was absolutely incredible. Great material, a comprehensible textbook and plenty of opportunities for gimmie points as long as you stay on top of your work. TAKE THIS CLASS!

Professor Sanz is easily one of the best professors I´ve had at WCU. This class was challenging but he was beyond helpful during class and office hours. I worked hard to get an A, but you actually learn the material well instead of just understanding it for exams

Professor Sanz is easily my favorite professor her at West Chester. This class is awesome!! There is a lot of busy work, only two tests but a lot of information on each. He explains EVERYTHING clearly and is the nicest person you will ever meet!! As long as you attend every class and stay on top of all your work and pop quizzes it is an easy A!

It's a really difficult intro class. There's a lot of material that is covered for the two tests and the final which is cumulative. For taking this class twice a week, it can feel rushed at times because there is a lot of info to cover, but if you ask questions then he will answer them. He's super helpful, friendly, funny, and is a fair professor.

Professor Sanz was by far the most genuinely passionate professor I have ever taken at West Chester. He loves what he teaches and tries his best to get his students to love the subject too. In his class you have to work for the grade you want to earn, but after the semester you come out understanding the material as long as you put in the effort.

Professor Sanz is very good at lecturing and is definitely interested in his topic. If he doesn't know the answer to a question he will look it up and get back to you. There was one group project and he gave a pop quiz on the reading most weeks. He really wants you to do well and in willing to give extra help during office hours.

He is amazing. I absolutely love not only his class but his cute looks and great personality!!!!!!!! He makes class fun and makes you wants to go. This information your learning is hard, but he explains everything and always there if you need help

Great course, makes you work for your grade though. Would take him again.

One of th best so far at wcu!!!

Definitely workd more than I xpected for a culture cluster, but it was worth it. Expect quizzes on the readings and do show up for class! Would take again.

Passed the class with a good grade but had to go to office hours almost every other week. He always takes the time to explain things over and over again. The material is dense but if you go to class and go over the handouts, you'll be fine for the tests... I definitely recommend him.

He was a fantastic professor! He was not "easy" in a sense, you worked hard but he made the material fun and interesting to learn and always provided extra credit for the test. He really knows a lot about the material which is a plus. One of the best professors I've had. Recommend taking him for sure!

I loved this course. It goes into issues of language use that you don't usually hear about in other linguistics courses. And the workload was pretty reasonable: two tests, a final test, a group presentation and a few small assignments. Would take again for sure!!

Dr. Sanz is a funny, smart professor. He makes class enjoyable every day. There is quite an amount of work, but doable. If you work daily and pay attention, this class is great. It is an intro to Linguistics, so you learn a lot of interesting information that you can use in other courses. Best prof at West Chester!

He is honestly one of the best Spanish professors I've ever had. He moves pretty fast so if you have no prior Spanish experience you have to pay attention. He really makes you understand what he's saying because he will never speak in English. There are lots of opportunities for points, but make sure you have the textbook and not skip class.

Class will probably be hard if you have never taken Spanish before. He moves pretty quickly as well. Other then that, he's really funny and makes our class laugh a lot. Makes us interact almost every class with the other students. Homework basically every night, but nothing hard. Overall good class!

Dr. Sanz is by far the greatest professor I have had at West Chester. He really cares about teaching linguistics, and makes sure students follow with many examples. he is extremely organized, and homework is not too much work. If you read and prepare every day, you can get an A, and the class is very enjoyable. I would take him again.

He made linguistics so interesting! He's funny, willing to go over things in class, and asks for real world examples so you can understand the material better. He knows which concepts are hard, so he spends a bit more time on them so you get a lot of time to practice. There is a group project near the end, which isn't great, but it's tolerable.

Dr. Sanz is the best professor I have had at West Chester. Clear and very interesting lectures, gives great notes and uses D2L daily. He is very funny and it's obvious he enjoys teaching. This class has been one of my favorites in my time here, and I learnt a lot about world languages. I would take Dr. Sanz every time.

Prof Sanz is great! He is very funny and his lectures are interesting. The material is not easy, so make sure to do all of the homework, participate, and study. He takes this all into consideration. As long as you complete everything and he knows you work hard, you will do great. He is always available for extra help, and there is extra credit!!

Amazing teacher. This class is a hard topic to grasp although he made it as simple and easy as possible. Was excited to attend his class, he always made the class the fun and light hearted.

Online quizzes every week, but they are short and easy. He also assigns weekly homework, but it is not super time consuming. He also gives extra credit. The lectures are pretty interesting, I do feel like I learned a lot even though I just took this class for the culture cluster requirement. Would recommend

He is a very good professor. This is what you can expect from this class: - Initial syllabus quiz (1%) -Biweekly discussions (10%) - Weekly readings and quizzes on those readings (14%) - Weekly papers relating to readings (min 650 words) (20%) -Two take home test (15%) - Final paper (min 12 pages) and presentation of that paper (30%)

I love Dr. Sanz! He made me actually look forward to going to this 3 hour night class. The class was a bit difficult, but that is expected for a higher level Spanish class. It was challenging but very interesting. He grades based off of 2 take home tests, a final project, homework, and weekly reading quizzes. He's really funny too!

I really enjoyed his class and him as a professor. He makes class fun and gets you involved in learning. If you have any type of question he is always willing to answer. His homework assignments were easy but he made you type them which is annoying and tedious but other then that I thought he was great.

Dr. Sanz is such a good prof! He makes class enjoyable. You do have to read the book a lot and there is a lot of homework for this course but if you do it, you will pass. Attendance is mandatory and there's a group project & presentation but as long as you do the work and show up you should be fine. He grades quickly which is also a plus

EASY class. Just show up and do the work it comes with, it's not a lot. He is a great professor and if you pay attention you actually will retain what he says he teaches in a very effective way. This is coming from someone that is the absolute laziest person, I hate class and college. But take him if you need a culture cluster!!

DONT listen to any of the (few) negative comments on here. I can't say I had a ton of professors that have made a lasting impression on me, but Professor Sanz-Sanchez is by far my FAVORITE professor at WCU. He is caring, nice, funny and truly amazing. He CARES about his students. TAKE HIM. Ive had him twice, and I love going to his classes!!

Professor Sanz-Sanchez is one of the greatest professors I have had in my life. He is very nice, helpful, and amazing. He really cares about students and loves to help them. His homework assignments were easy and if we do them, you will get an easy A. I will take him again since he is one of the distinguished professors at WCU. I recommend him.

Professor Israel-Sanz is great! Decent amount of work each week but none of it is exceptionally difficult. I found some of the assignments to be super interesting and engaging. I got away without doing the readings most weeks and just watching the lecture videos but you can't get past other assignments. He's very understanding about extensions.

Dr. Sanz is a great professor; caring and always gives very detailed and helpful feedback on assignments! I took the class as an asynchronous remote class, and the experience went smoothly and it was easy to absorb the material through the weekly modules and short quizzes.

Spanish really isn't my thing, but professor Sanz did the best he could. He's a good professor, definitely one I'd recommend. You will 100% need the textbook and the online access that comes with it, as all of the homework and tests run through that. It's a good, straightforward Spanish class.

Didn't think I was going to like this class, but Dr. Sanz ended up becoming one of my favorite professors. LIN130 is filled with interesting assignments and he's definitely one of the kindest professors. Take this class if you need an elective. You will not regret it.

Without a doubt, Dr. Sanz is one of my favorite professors. He obviously LOVES teaching, and he is funny in class. He makes the material easy to understand, and got me interested in linguistics. He likes it when you ask questions and participate in class, and never shoots down your ideas or comments. Solid and fair professor, highly recommended.

Professor Sanz is very engaging in class and always had good examples for us if we were ever stuck on a concept. His slideshows and teaching was very thorough. He's very passionate about what he teaches which helped me become more motivated. Also very funny.

Dr. Sanz is a fantastic professor! He assigns a lot of homework, but gives clear instructions and is very helpful and attentive when students need help or ask questions. He cares about his classroom, and has an organized D2L page which I appreciated. Very sweet and humorous, I would recommend him to anyone needing gen eds/major requirements!

Dr. Sanz is one of the best teachers on campus for online classes. LIN 230 is one of the most organized and clear online classes I have taken, and the amount of work is manageable every week. He is always accessible when needed and replies to emails promptly. I would recommend him for any linguistics class if you need to take one.

Dr. Sanz is amazing!! He genuinely cares about his students and he also organizes his D2L site super well so it's easy to navigate. I learned a lot from his class and thought it was well structured, even though there was a lot of work sometimes.

I took Dr. Sanz-Sanchez´s class during winter break online as a gen ed requirement and it has been so far one of my favorite subjects on campus. I learnt a lot about different aspects of linguistics, and the course modules were easy to follow. He gave me good feedback on the assignments. Take him if you can.
