This was a great class. Levin should be know as exceptional for her Spanish I and II classes. After that it's still good, but not great. But for Spanish I and II, which are requirements, she is the best. I wouldn't take Spanish with a different professor after Levin.

She's very nice, I just wish I had the luxury of taking this course in her classroom, because online using Portales is just awful. It takes the joy out of learning Spanish and makes it extremely difficult, frustrating, and stressful. Way too much all at once, not enough time to practice one concept before moving onto the next. Horrible experience.

RUN from this class, it is horrible. Online should not even be offered as it is near impossible with the absolutely ridiculous workload and this horrible Portales program. Professor Levin should be an advocate for her students and change this. No single course should take this much time, and have this much content poured onto someone all at once.

With her help and guidance, so can you. She is so awesome; you have to take her! Spanish 1 & 2 are amazing also, you will love them, especially with her! She is perfect!

Professor Levin is amazing no matter what level of Spanish you are in. She will take the time to make sure you understand the material and make sure you have fun along the way. This was my fourth year of Spanish, but I started with 0 in my first year, and I am so confident! If you are anxious about Spanish, then take her because you will succeed!

At the begining everything was fine than the last 2 weeks of class she blames you for planarizing, then it just goes downhill. Makes you use only " vocabulary and grammar" form the story you read. she will fail you if you don't. NO REALLY SHE HUGE ABOUT THAT. She responds fast with no problems but when it comes to grading she tough.

Terrible online course and you do not have this teacher as a resource. Her feedback takes a long time. She does not offer any help - her responses are always..."its in the text". She either has too many online courses she covers or she just doesn't care to do the work. I can understand why the failure rate is high in this course.

Prof Levin is great! I really liked her online class. There is a lot of VHL homework but I didnt mind that. Only the midterm and the final are proctored, everything else is open book. She is very helpful and she grades very gently and based on the rubric. If you do all the work, there is no reason you cant get a pretty easy A in this class.

Ms. Levin is a sweet and kind professor. The class is based on the VHL textbook and two projects. Get ready to spend at least 6h/weekly to complete the homework and the next 6 for studying. I'd recommend taking either SPC-live or regular lectures to interact with the language. The classes are straightforward. The assignments are graded quickly.

Took Sra. Levin for Spanish 1 and 2. She is very helpful. Grammar is the hardest part of the course, but the VHL learning software makes it easy as long as you take notes, take time to fully focus on the material, and pay attention to the videos. Not many discussions and the projects are easy. Mid-term and final exams are proctored.

Profesora Levin is very kind and responds quickly to questions. The class is a lot of work but it's definitely manageable. If you don't understand something, definitely reach out to her and she will explain it to you. The only thing I will say is to find a partner for the partner chat activities as soon as you can so you don't get stressed out.
