Key questions
Is this an easy A?
Getting an A looks hard because students describe tough grading, endless homework, long exams, and low reported grades.
Online evidence says self-teaching is required, while in-person evidence adds tough grading and long tests.
Is the course easy?
Spanish 1 should be introductory, but unclear teaching and assumed prior knowledge make it feel harder than expected.
Both formats suggest the course feels harder because students must self-teach.
Is attendance flexible?
Several reviews list attendance as mandatory, and participation appears to matter.
The online review and multiple in-person reviews mark attendance as mandatory.
Is this professor recommended?
Students mostly do not recommend her because they say she does not teach clearly and creates grading confusion.
The only online review is negative, and most in-person reviews are also negative.
