I had a very negative experience in this course. I did not find the professor to be very effective in her teaching and she assigned an excess of homework with no real purpose. She also was very disorganized and seemed to be planning the course as it happened, meaning homework was sometimes posted the day before it was due, making it impossible to plan ahead. Unfortunately, she also is a very unforgiving and unaccommodating professor. I do not recommend this professor for students with disabilities as it was very difficult to access accommodations in this course. This was a very high stress course with very little return.

So far I have really enjoyed this course. I feel like my Spanish is improving drastically, but it can be a lot of work. There is at least an hour-two x three for homework in addition to tests outside of class, essays, language tables etc, all though this is kinda to be expected to get good at a language. She is very good at bringing the level to the right level for the whole class and encouraging everyone to speak and participate in class discussion.

Gloria was very interested in the content and engaging, but there was a lot of homework that occasionally felt excessive (I've heard from friends that this depends on the professor). Overall it was a good experience, but it takes a decent amount of time every week in order to keep up with the class.
