Class was graded off of 4 essays (2-page double spaced) and 1 oral presentation. He was a lenient grader, very passionate about what he teaches, and class is very interactive. Amazing professor that makes class interesting and engaging. Definitely recommend this class and him as a professor!

Such an easygoing professor who wants you to practice your Spanish. Really passionate about teaching, only had to write a few short papers.

Prof who tries to make the class interactive (that's an understatement), in a creative way, and tries to make content relevant. Is a good lecturer and knows his stuff, and is also understanding and nice too. Class was never difficult to prep for or for exams/papers. Very manageable, sometimes heavy reading though some weeks.

Professor Cabranes-Grant is a great professor. He's super animated and engaging in the class material. We had one midterm essay and one final essay, both take home, and a small presentation on a poem in class. I learned a lot and have a newfound appreciation for the material!

Leo is a super intriguing guy who is very electric during lecture. He does his best to make the material interesting and make the class engage, which helps for learning in his class. I like his grading system, although I wish there was more transparency on Canvas. Overall a good prof though who I would take again.
