Has an informal lecturing style and self deprecating humor, but overall not strict in the slightest and tries to explain what is often dry material as best she can. Very accomodating grade wise with tests (curves) and group projects. She bends her rules for the benefit of her students and does not want them to be stressed.

This class is kind of a joke. At first the class seems serious but then after the first quiz it just got confusing. The other two quizzes were basically a joke and Miglio does not know how to answer students' questions. Take bc its easy but don't expect to learn too much.

She is such a nice lady. Really knowledgeable about linguistics. She gave us a fair amount of extra credit opportunities and is very approachable and encourages students to participate in class. Unlike some other Spanish professors at UCSB, she is not intimidating and is very understanding of the fact that we are LEARNING spanish.

She is very passionate about her work and knows her stuff. Her quizzes are a bit challenging but she is always available after class or any other time if you want to make an appointment. She tries very hard to keep the students interested in the material and there are always study guides to every quiz. There was no final/midterm, only 4 quizzes.
