A great professor who was so helpful and accessible during office hours. Though this class made me sweat for the grade, I definitely learned so much because the material was very interesting. I highly recommend it!

Relatively no homework for this class, graded on two take home exams (very easy), one midterm and final. Nice professor, but had a quiet voice so sometimes easy to get distracted in class. The subject material is very interesting though.

He has a mouse-like voice that is like melatonin. People legit sleep in class :(. Boring, monotoned, would not take again. Just read and study his handouts, youll be fine

A straight-shooter, easy to understand and easy to do well in the class if you study and read. I really appreciate that you don't have to buy an expensive textbook, he has his own handouts that have everything. Exams are open-book.

Very easy course. Professor Raposo is very boring and simply lectures off his handouts. He himself is very redundant and lackluster in his teaching. Review his handouts and you will get an A.

I absoutely appreciate that he doesn't make you buy an expenive textbook/reader. All you need to know is given to you online in his handouts. Its not a difficult class but YOU STILL DO NEED TO STUDY. Easy to get distracted in class because he lectures quietly and doesnt look up, but just make notes on handouts as he lectures and it'l make easier

Eduardo is quiet. Most people use lecture to do work for other classes. His lectures are word for word from his handouts. The material is really quite easy and his exams are really fair. Pay some attention during class, review for exams, and you're good.

Very boring, he lectures from his own handouts which you can read on your own w/o really paying attention in class. 2 take home midterms, very easy. 1 midterm and final in class that you have to make sure you read for before. The exams take less than 20 min each. Exams are multiple choice/write in combination but the answers are pretty obvious.

This class was so easy. He uses handouts that he types up himself and then teaches off of those. No homework and no book. The class is pretty boring, but you don't have to pay attention because everything is on the handouts. There's two take -home midterms and one in class, all super easy. Its an interesting class for spanish majors or minors!

This has been my favorite class at UCSB. Class is easy and interesting. No textbook or anything, he gives you handouts as reading material. He goes over every handout in class but helps you comprehend it better. Two take-home exams with about 15 questions, midterm and a final. All the same format. Super easy but you need to study.

Very soft spoken teacher. He's not clear on his lectures, and doesn't even make eye contact with the class. Students were in their cell phones/laptops (doing non school related work) and he didn't seem to care. He's a good guy though and easy grader :)

A soft-spoken rambler who takes too many opportunities to go on tangents. I have no doubt he's a great guy but he's just not very skilled at explaining concepts.
