I want you to laugh when Mr. McNeal fails you for no reason. Laugh at him because he is pathetic, because he is a failure. He is a teacher who can't teach! Everytime I look at Mr. McNeal I laugh because even though there is no justice at SUNY Cortland, there is a such thing as karma. How you feeling Glen? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Comment:

If you know spanish well he will be an easy A but if your like me and have little experience in Spanish you'll be lucky to get a C..NO homework sounds great until your test average has no curve and your teacher will not let you take home old tests to study from. Very hard for new to Spanish learners but like I said if you really know Spanish easy A

Comment:

Nice guy...but is worthless as a teacher. He dresses unprofessionally, and he is so hard to learn from. You have to do a lot of indeoendent work in order to succeed. I withdrew from the class due to failing the first exam. Not a good transition teacher, or for someone who hasnt had much Spanish. Impossible...

Comment:

He had a very hard time relaying his thoughts to students. He wrote all over the board without organization, and when he ran out of room to write he would just erase a small part and write about something else. I need more organization in my learning. His exams were very hard, and he always says "todos" when he wants input from the class. AWFUL

Comment:

This man is impossible. I had an A in SPA 100. I recieved a C- from him, which was one of the best grades in the whole class. Many people who really put tried failed. He spent more time telling you about dialects than the grammer and culture that was tested. The class made a complaint petition, hopfully we can spare the rest of you. DONT TAKE HIM

Comment:

As a graduate student, going into an undergraduate 100 level Spanish course I thought there would be nothing to it... So much for that. After meeting with him before every class, I still did not pass a test and took an incomplete rather than sit through 4 hours a night for an F.

Not a good teacher at all, rambles on trying to connect with what he was talking about. Kept you after class a few minutes and fails a lot of people, tests are impossible because of the culture sections

Comment:

This teacher likes to hear himself talk. He teaches in a very boring way. Besides being distracted by his disgusting lack of personal care, he teaches quickly, covering a lot of material, and barely explains what he teaches. He is barely helpful at comprehending the material. Get a different teacher!

Comment:

DO NOT TAKE HIM! I took Glen in a winter class and he was horrible... He went on about different unnecesary vocab and left it up to ourselves to learn alot of the material... I ended up getting a D in the class along with most of the other people taking it... He was a hard grader and asked alot of oral questions on the tests...

Comment:

i took this clown for winter session...worst experience of my life...never put so much effort in for a D...although his moon boots are comical and its a little fun to poke fun at them with fellow classmates..bottom line suicide would be a better option than taking this course

DO NOT TAKE THIS PROFESSOR! do not take a class this man. He loves to listen to himself talk, and looks absolutely disgusting. when you schedule your classes either take another professor or if you have to take spanish wait till the next semester. I took spanish through high school and middle school and did great and i am doing awful in this class.

He is an extremely borimg professor!! All he does is read the book in class. Terrible! The only importamt thing to him is attendence. I am an A student, but don't dare miss ANY classes or he will fail you, even if you have an A in the class. Save yourself the agony and take another prof. I wish I had come to this site before torturing myself!!

Comment:

AWFUL teacher. Does not teach anything that is on the tests, you basically have to learn the language from a written text book. Tests come straight out of the teachers manual and you never get to look at them when he grades them. Basically, switch to a different teacher, or prepare to fail...
