Professor Craveiro is a great professor to learn spanish with. I highly reccomend him, he is very interested in helping you learn and understand the language. The online class is flipped which is very helpful to get to talking right out the gate. Two projects that are easy but weighted heavy. Homeworks are all online and are very helpful.

Pedro is a great Portuguese professor. He's very kind and accommodating of students' needs, and makes sure everyone is engaged. I really enjoyed improving my Portuguese in his class and being in such a welcoming environment. Took the class P/NP because I must admit that the grade distribution seemed quite harsh.

He genuinely cares about his students and creates a relaxed learning environment. The class is fairly easy and follows a flipped classroom style homework first, then in-class practice. There's more conversation than grammar lectures, and he often ends class early. Overall great teacher and person!!

Pedro is a truly gifted educator and he cares about his students so much. Someone please give Pedro a raise. He wants you to succeed. He is an incredible person. He is funny, silly, sweet, and so cute. I adore him. I learned so much. You are so special! Thank you for everything Pedro

Pedro's "teaching assistant" gave me a 20% on my midterm and left unproductive and rude comments on my essay. When I expressed my concern over this, the professor changed my grade and offered me a rewrite, yet he did not apologize for the lack of professionalism on behalf of the TA. I wish I could have been treated with more respect in this class.

The discussions were always fun and engaging! It enriched my understanding of Brazilian culture in a unique way, and now I really want to go to Brazil! You can tell the professor is good at what they teach when you're sad to miss lecture. Pedro always finds ways to encourage people to delve into the course content and actively participate in class!
