She would gaslight her students. Did not explain the material being taught and would assign excess materials to go over. If students would ask questions she would get upset they did not already know the answer. It was not a safe environment to learn in. Overall, the courses consisted of 3 group projects.
Unnecessary work made this class fast-paced. Movie, readings and practice to do before Tuesday every week that wouldn't tie to anything, and tests combined into group projects. Important group projects, hard to get a good grade unless the project was pretty and everyone put in a lot of work. Gaucho Space was highly emphasized but hard to navigate.
S20. Amongst the circumstances of the quarter, Profesora Gonzales-Smith was very accommodating. She shortened her lectures after a few weeks, made sure to give us longer windows for the midterms, and was very accessible to us. She's funny, witty, lots of personality! She is very direct, though. Go to her to get clarifications! Readings a must.
While it was easy to get an A in this class, all of the lectures were unengaging and substanceless. Lecture felt like a waste of time; I basically used nothing that I learned in lecture on any of my exams. The professor is irrationally particular about certain things. I would not recommend this class, but spanish majors have to take it.
nicest lady ever. Class feels super hectic the first few weeks of class because she is so disorganized, but the work is not too challenging. Quizzes, midterms, and the final are all online so it's definitely easy to finesse an A in this class. You also learn a lot of pretty interesting stuff, although her lectures can feel like an eternity.
