I am currently in her Bi-term she must obviously think we have nothing to do considering we have enough homework to last us all semester. Everything is fill in the blank.I absolutely hate her class, the first term (101) was just as bad.STAY AWAY!

If you are taking this course beucase you think it will be easy, DROP NOW! Ms. Amador is not a very good teacher and therefore, this class is not easy. I had her for the spansih bi-terms (101 in the first semester and 102 in the second). Now, 101 is for people who have never had spanish before. First, the way she runs the class, sucks. You work with a partner that she chooses nearly everyday, which sucks because you can't work with someone on the quiz, so it doesn't help you learn the material. Second, the material was pretty easy, but the quizzes were crazy hard! Everything was fill in the blank, no word bank, and spelling counted 100% (SPANSIH 101!!!). Now we got kind of used to that, but I stusyed hard and still failed 4 out of the 6 quizzes, only got and A on 1. The other terrible part is that with the cumluative final, there is an oral exam (eaither a presentation or a conversation). While this sounds normal (after all it is spanish), we NEVER spoke a word of spanish in the class! In fact, we never really discussed vocab, how to speak or pronounce things..nothing! So you pretty much ill have to wing it. Spanish 102 is run the exact same way, just FYI. If you are whiling to do WAY more work than you should have to, study A LOT, and never use spanish again, she might be ok. However, if you are taking 201, 202 or higher, STAY AWAY. I literally am going to forget everything that I have learned as soon as I take my final next week. Complete waste of may time (and I wasted a lot of time on this class).

EASY. TAKE MS.AMADOR!!!! She is really sweet, but...THE FINAL (Oral and Written) ARE your grades. The quizzes don't even matter, do the easy homework and you'll do fine!
