Very energetic, and got annoying after a while. She is an easy grader but I found myself drifting off because of her energy. She also goes through the class asking for participants.

Professor Ginck is the sweetest professor I have had at Messiah so far. Being in her class was a real delight, and I will definitely be taking her for Spanish 2! Super easy class if you're not great with languages!

Señora Ginck was hands down the best Spanish teacher I have ever had. She cares so much about her students and their success. I had her at 9 am, and every day she came with a smile on her face. Do not miss the opportunity to take her class.

One of the best Spanish 101 Professors I've ever had. She has a great way to teach and connect with her students. Not many tests also. I highly recommend taking this class.

Profesora Ginck is a wonderful professor! She is very helpful and accommodating to any schedule. She truly cares about her students and their grades. She is also one of the funniest Spanish professors I've ever met. She shares her hilarious stories about her experiences in Spain and allows time for fun games that encourage learning.

You will not find a better spanish teacher. I have learned more this semester than the last three years I've taken Spanish combined. She is extremely helpful and will bend over backwards for each and every student. She is clear in her instructions, and gives a lot of homework for practice which turns out to be really helpful.

Definitely take her for Span 101 or 102. She loves her job and her students and spanish. Her hwk is all on completion, not accuracy and the week before the test she'll let you know what to expect on it an what to study. Attendance is a fair amount of your grade so don't plan on skipping. Class isn't just lecture, but engaging activities too!

Professor Ginck is a helpful teacher if you do not know Spanish incredibly well because she uses English a lot. Plan on being at every class because attendance is a fair portion of your grade. Homework is easy and tests are on the easier side (harder when she uses text from other sources). Overall, sign up for Ginck

Very nice teacher. Class is pretty long and hard to get through. She will never let anyone out early. But HW is all for completion and the tests are pretty straightforward. She's a very happy person and engages the class well. Not too hard to get an A

I don't know how anybody could be that awake at 8 AM, but she is. She's a great lady, very nice, and helps in any way she can. I'm not a fan of Spanish, but she understands that not everybody wants to be there and makes it as fun as she can.

Great Professor! Span 101 wasnt so clear but taking Ginck makes it despejado (clear). She makes spanish easy to learn. She should be on one of those spanish DVD's to help teach spanish, shes that good! TAKE HER! TAKE HER! TAKE HER!
