Comment:

Not clear on directions or what is on the test. Teaches at a very fast pace and doesn't leave a lot of time for questions. Notes are written on blackboard and are messy and confusing. Material that is on the test isn't what was learned in class. Gives lots of homework and spends too much time going over it.

Dr. Simone is a great teacher. She always seems excited to be teaching class, and she gets every student involved. She is an extremely nice lady who is always willing to help. I had her for two semesters of spanish and I highly recommend her.

Comment:

Had her for SPAN 201-202. GREAT TEACHER! thorough, clear, fair, helpful. Students willing to actually DO the work, keep up, & come to class are guranteed to succeed with an A or B. Her 10/15/20/25% test grading policy is weird, but I still like her. ATTN transfers: She's way better than the JCC Olean teacher Anderson-keep that in mind. Love Simone!

I met with Dr.Simone at least 4 times a week for extra help. I always attended class and did all the homework. I tryed so hard but it was so difficult for me. I got a C in the class and was dissapointed, because of how hard i Tryed. she is nice but such a hard and not so fair grader...quizzes dont even count, not fair

Dr. Simone is a wonderful professor...i came out with a D in the class because I don't have the smarts for languages but I wouldn't want anyone else for a teacher...I'm taking her for 202 next semester and couldn't be happier :-)

Comment:

Prof. Simone did a great thing for the school when she decided to leave the private sector with her husband and become associate professors. You may not love Spanish as much as she loves Bonaventure, but if you contribute in the classroom and show you care about your liberal-arts education, she will respond by giving you an A-. Not too shabby.

Okay... people who think she's hard... didn't do their work, not that there's even a lot to do... those who said she was mean...didnt go to class or came to class late... SHES A GREAT PROF. Very helpful and most importantly, she could probably teach a chimp to speak Spanish...she's that good!

I hate Spanish, but the knowledgable and tough but fair Dr. Simone was worth taking three semesters straight. :)
