She's the best spanish professor!! Loves teaching but will try and intimidate her students.
Every class I have ever taken with her was quite challenging. She can be very intimidating and overbearing but she truly is passionate about her field. If your ideas are well founded she will respect them. She has some liberal, feminist, pov's that might rub some people the wrong way but I found her alternative views refreshing.
Like already mentioned very liberal, anti-america, not helpful in class, if students dont feel like talking about the literature then she wont either, apparently its not her job to analyze the literature unless students do it first, fairly easy 2 tests and a paper, but as a person she really got under my skin
She'll try n' scare you out, but she makes you want to learn.
She does not take**** from students, she gets right to the meat of things no bull with this professor. She will kick you out if you talk when she is teaching. She will inspire you to do your best in whatever subject, she really cares about her students. REally do the readings before lecture, b/c she expects interaction with the students.
Probablly one of my favorite at UCSB...

Completely intimidating at first, and actually sometimes mean, but she is just trying to challenge you and make you think for yourself. I felt interested and inspired by her teaching style.
comes off mean but is a great prof!!.. makes lecture very interesting and not much homework..
she's an awesome teacher! at first she comes off a bit scary, but i really got into her style as the quarter went on. the only thing to worry about is the paper at the end. she basically tells you what she wants you to write on the midterm.
she does not give out much homework. when taking a midter you will know what is needed. she will test you on thinks she has talked about and also she will go over the midterm with you. at first i thought she was a mean instructor but she really isn't.
