Comment:

I needed a language requirement, I didn't care about the class. I went once a week, and still managed to get an A. If you go outside class to talk to him he's always helpful, he's a weird guy so people get set off from him. But in reality he's very helpful and if you aren't serious about the language, his class is perfect.

Comment:

Nice man, but as others have said, HORRIBLE teacher. He's not one of those evil teachers that you hate, just one of those ones that makes you want to pull out a razor and end it all a mere 10 minutes into class because your eyeballs are in excruciating pain from staring at the clock. I'm actually impressed that I'm still around to tell the tale.

Really nice guy, but a TERRIBLE teacher. All we ever did in class was review homework, which there was always a ton of. This is irrelevant, but his breathe was horrendous!

Comment:

We had so much homework and it was unnecessary. Just goes over the HW in class, but most people didn't do the assignments. If he knows you are a Spanish minor he always calls on you. Whether you do or don't make eye contact he calls on you, AND always calls on you when you don't know the answer. I like Spanish just not with him.

Just don't do it to yourselves, people. Grandpa Little makes an otherwise fun thing to learn a royal pain. I was struggling, asked to meet with him-he stood me up 6 different times. I almost failed and he couldn't figure out why.... I guess he should have met with me if he wanted to know......

I dropped the class before I even really got started. Moved fast, assigned a ton of work and did no visible teaching. He seemed like a good guy, really loved Span. but maybe shouldn't be a teacher.

Big reason why I dropped Span as a major. The entire departmt is crazy, and he's unfortunately the chair. Makes no attempt at a Span accent and can barely speak the language

A nice guy but tends to just repeat whatever is in the book. If you need an easy course take it but do it on a 3 times a week schedule the longer classes with him are unbearable.
