Comment:

A little unorganized, goes straight for the whiteboard in class. Exams are easy. She lets you correct your exams for up to 5 points to boost your grade. Had family issues, but is a strong little lady. Very sweet, understanding, caring, wants YOU TO PASS!!

I took 2 years of spanish in high school. I'm glad I took her for spanish, she's great! She wants you to learn. Very understanding if you are not grasping it. Sometimes she misses class but this semester she has only missed about 3 classes. Overall she was great!

Honestly I enjoyed this class and her as a teacher. You can tell she loves spanish and enjoys teaching. This course helped me improve on my struggling Spanish. I am glad i took this class with her she has a lot of patience. If you study and do your readings and listen to lectures you will be able to learn from this class, i did!

Nice, but the most stressful class ever! DO NOT TAKE!!! Misses classes, does not explain well. Does not answer e-mails. The class was very stressed out, and she played favorites!

Comment:

Loved her! She is super nice and has really easy tests. The only thing that can get frustrating is that she just won't show up to class sometimes, but I'm not complaining about that. Doesn't grade homework so it's for your own learning benefit. She is one of the best spanish teachers I have ever had. Not only teaches the language, she explains it.

Comment:

She is so enthusiastic about the subject, but is never very clear on what she wants. If you ask her a question, her answer will have nothing to do with it. The tests are literally the homework, and as long as you do decently on the tests you should get a B. I am not sure she actually grades by points, but I got an A so I'll give her a pass.

If you want an easy class for the summer to meet your GED req, then this will be the class for you. However, if you would like to learn Spanish, don't bother with this professor.

Didn't know what was required, or what my grade was at any point during the semester. She didn't remember our names after she called on us countless times. Got an A, but had stress all semester bc of this class.

She is supposed to be preparing us for upper division, but does nothing to help up out. We did things that had nothing to do with Spanish. Terrible teacher, avoid her if you can. Being nice doesn't help me learn.

Comment:

Magaly is a sweetheart, but is not very reliable. Teh class is somewhat of a joke, as she is always late and sometimes does not show up. While she means well, her teaching is difficult to follow and you're better off studying on your own with the review pages in the back of each chapter. If you want an easy Spanish class, this one's for you.

VERY VERY nice teacher, she tries to accomaodate if you need o leave early or come in late. She is very helpful if you have questions, but she did miss some classes and show up late, as she was having health problems

Comment:

Not very responsible. Always late to class or never showed up at all. Posted grades over a month late. It is very clear that she has a lot of problems in her life. She is very nice and will give you and automatic A if you show up to class, wait for her if she's late, and talk with her a little bit but won't learn very much spanish.

She was an easy teacher, but she was very disorganized. She didn't follow her sylabus and it took her almost a month after grades were do for her to submit them.

She is very friendly and has a good personality. A quote from her I remember, which you can sort of relate to to some extent: "I know sometimes you may want to throw me out the window, but thats why you need to talk to me about problems you have"
