Comment:

Horrible prof. Lovely person but does not explain assignments very well and often leaves students more confused when trying to clarify assignments. Marking made no sense and I would not recommend taking a course with her. I love spanish, but did not enjoy this class at all!

Comment:

Natalia fills me full of a rage I didn't know I had. I feel that she is very very passive aggressive and its too bad because I really enjoy the language and she makes me hate it. She is unfair, treats us like children and mumbles bad things about us in spanish under her breath. I am now paying a tutor to teach me spanish. steer clear of her

Comment:

She's very demanding, but if you actually work on the homework and come to class prepared, you shouldn't have a problem. She can be really cute sometimes, and she is friendly. You'll learn a lot if you keep on top of the material.

Comment:

I'm so sad that she's gone now. I'm doing an MA in Spanish with another girl from Dal, who I hadn't met previously, and we both agree that Natalia was one of the best teachers we ever had. She, along with Mr. Holloway and Mrs. Gimenez, are the reasons why I'm going what I'm doing right now.

I think she was a great prof. She truly cares about her students, and is only hard on you when she knows you can do better. I am sad that she has left Dal to teach in the States.

She's a wonderful professor..she's very hard on students, but challenges them to work and is always available for questions or help. I absolutely enjoyed her class and had her for 3 years!
