He's an incredibly good Professor, very helpful & reasonable. But VHL (Online HW) sucks, any class that makes you use VHL? Run. It's an avalanche of HW. That's main reason the class is hard. If you at least are trying in the class? He -will- help you out. If you want to learn Spanish, take him, if you want easy A? Do not. (P.S. Focus on grammar!)

AMAZING professor!!! I loved class, he truly cares about his students and is willing to help. There is a lot of homework online but it really helps you learn the language. Show up to class + do your homework and you will get an A.

Do your homework and you'll do fine

Great professor. I think he is pretty new but you can tell he loves to teach and help whenever you need it. I made an A and actually learned something.

easy A. Just do your homework.

Two thumbs up.. Show up to class, do your homework and you will get an A. He speaks Spanish during must of the class but it really helps you get familiar with the language. TAKE HIM!!!

Gives great lectures and always available for help. It's a tough class but he really helps you get though it.

This class was harder than I thought it would be but I am older and had never studied another language. Juan Alberto is a fantastic teacher and he encourages all his students to participate. ALERT! LOTS OF HOMEWORK, HOMEWORK IS 23% OF THE GRADE. I will be taking Spanish 2 and will choose this professor.

Easy A if you do your homework. I loved class and actually looked forward to it.

If you show up to class and show a little participation as well as keeping up with your online homework, it is a class to pass no problemo.

When taking this class, you must have a drive to want to learn spanish. If you don't, you'll find yourself falling behind and ultimately failing. GO TO CLASS- it is important. Tests/Quiz every week and in the testing center. He really does want you to learn and will help you out when you need it. Ask questions, show up, try your best, DO THE WORK.

I took him for both Spanish I and II, and I would take him again. Yes, there is a lot of homework everynight. Make sure you come prepared to class with the homework done and be prepared that every class has a test or quiz. Tests and Quizzes are in the testing center and he drops the lowest of both. Participation counts in every class

My only complaint is the amount of homework this prof. makes you do. It's a lot but if you know how to manage your time you can do it. He does a lot of discussions and video projects. I learned how to edit videos because of him. He takes a few days to answer his emails too.

I took an 8-week course meaning there was more homework than regular courses plus it was a 4 credit course but he gives clear instructions. He gives a reasonable amount of time to finish your work and provides feedback quick. Also, he is super organized with the course material.

Very good professor, condense course is a lot of homework but not too hard.

Professor Salto is professional, knowledgeable, and responsive to the online student. There are clear concise instructions for every assignment. The course is designed to challenge you but not overwhelm you, as you stay current with the calendar due dates. Also provides helpful additional learning resources, outside of the etext.

bro goes ham on homework decent amount of tests. very good and cares about his students but but assigns too much imo.

I struggled with Spanish in middle school through high school and I always did poorly in Spanish, until I took this class everything became clearer, and he actually seemed to care. I do think it's better to take this class if you're willing to put in the work though. He does require participation which personally kept me more engaged.

Professor Salto is very well educated on the Spanish language, if you are someone who wants to really learn Spanish, he can answer all of your deeper questions about why things in spanish are the way that they are which helped with my learning and understanding tremendously

Great professor! Clearly cares about his students and takes time to explain things and never makes you feel bad when you are struggling with a topic. Just wants to know you are trying. Would take again.

Professor Salto is very patient and willing to help you with proper sentence structures. There is a lot of homework but I believe that is just the curriculum for SPN1121. Overall, I would take him again.

He is a very good instructor in relaying information about each section of the course.

I really enjoyed this professors class, I would recommend him, there is a decent amount of homework that you will need to keep on top of, but beside that the class isn't too difficult, so I would recommend it.

Had a blast I had a blast in this class Juan -Alberto is the greatest!

Professor Juan-Alberto is a fun teacher for starting Spanish and he'll tell you all he knows about Spanish speaking countries. But beware of the small assignments on VHL website. There's a lot!

There is a decent amout of work; one needs to keep track and be on time. Take time to grade assigments, util the end of the semester. All quizzes and tests are done through honorlock (Beware)

The professor is very clear in his lectures and takes the time to ensure everyone understands prior to moving forward.

I am so glad that I chose Professor Salto for Spanish 1. This was this perfect class for an introduction to Spanish. The class was divided into units where I learned a lot of Spanish at once and never felt overwhelmed. Especially if this is your introduction to learning Spanish I would highly recommend you take Professor Salto's class.

I had a great experience with Professor Salto and would highly recommend him as a teacher. I think it was a great introductory class for Spanish and if English is your first language he is the perfect professor to teach you because he is very knowledgeable about both Spanish and English

This is a really good professor. I like his teaching techniques. He's

Mr salto is great your gonna have a lot of fun while learning just don't fall behind in your book work

Very easy to get along with and has a calm and collected personality. He's open to answering questions even if they may be slightly off-topic.

He is amazing just pay attention and go to class

Professor Salto is a great professor and his class is fun and engaging. There is a lot of assignments and class participation.

Pretty easy class, just stay in top of your work

Very nice Spanish professor. I haven't taken a Spanish class since high school, but this was easily the most effective at actually teaching and not just a load of busywork. There is a lot of homework to stay on top of, but if you understand the material it's not too hard to get ahead. Would take again.

He's amazing he's very understanding. Participation is graded in his class and so is attendance. It's a lot of homework but the website that has the homework give a penalty of 5 percent everyday it's late He's very patient. I got a high b in his class just by studying and doing the homework.

Professor Salto is very engaging with his students and knows how to facilitate a memorable and constructive learning environment. His lessons are very entertaining, informative, and encourage interactivity which helps reinforce the course material. He is very open in conversation and flexible to helping students learn. I highly recommend his class.

Professor Salto is great at keeping the class engaged. He always accommodates for students who are willing to learn, ensuring that his students understand a concept before moving on. He's easy to speak to and his lessons are always fun. Guarantee you'll be missing it when it's over!

If you are ready to learn Spanish take this professor and you will definitely know a lot by the time your done

Great teacher stay on top of your homework

Salto is incredibly kind and approachable. The class involves a substantial amount of homework and additional assignments, so I would recommend it to those who have the time and dedication to thoroughly engage with the material.

Very meticulous in instruction and delivery. Completely covers any questions you may have and thoroughly answers them. Would take again.

Attendance and vhl are hand in hand if you fall behind in either it's easy to fall off track. But Mr Santo is a great teacher loads of insight and great energy

Very good professor. Very nice and easy to communicate with, even if the book requires a lot of assignments he is always there and helpful to make sure you are learning. Would take him again if I didn't complete my Spanish requirement.

He pays great attention to detail and will help you out anyway he can during your time taking his course

Great professor who genuinely cares how you are doing in the course and will help you out whenever he's is given the opportunity.

Mr Salto is a really great teacher, and his class provides you with a lot of resources so it's very hard to fail it. Overall, it's a pretty nice class, just make sure you do your VHL homework and attend as much classes as possible.

Hey, it is a lot of work. But it's pretty simple. He uses a website outside of Canvas which you do have to pay for. The website is good he give you many chances to turn in an assignment just talk to him. He's pretty quick with emails. I took Spanish 1 and 2 wirh him. He's good just take him. .

Professor Salto is a great teacher. I struggled with Spanish in high school, but he helped me understand the basics. He's patient and really cares. Just know the VHL homework can be a lot, so it's better to take his class with a lighter course load if possible.

He's very willing to work with you as long as you work with him. There's a lot of homework for the class, but lots of room to ask questions in case of need for clarification. Overall great teacher, as long as you show up to class and pay attention you'll pass.

The professor was very helpful. There's A LOT of HW, so be careful. He always sends email when he sees you're falling behind. The only thing is that he's a slow grader. Throughout the course there will be very few graded, so the grade you have might not be a reflection of how you're doing in class. At the end is when you know your true grade.

Professor Salto is a great teacher, he explains lots of things to help you understand. There is a lot of homework due for the majority of the week but it's everything that is discussed in class. I am taking his class 2 semesters in a row because he is a great teacher 👍🏻

I really enjoyed his class. Lost of group activities. Come to class or you'll fall behind. He's a great professor though, very helpful. And efficient when responding to with email.

Professor Salto is very caring but there is a lot of homework. He does want his students to do their best. This is a course heavy class.

Easy professor, easy homework, be prepared for small paragraphs and writing very small writing prompts in your texts, and projects fairly simple to understand will remind you of resources available a very no excuses teacher which is good 👍
