Reviews of professor Maricruz Castro-Spencer

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
If you aren't confident with public speaking, this class is perfect for you! Professor Maricruz Castro-Spencer guides you through the whole process and is very clear on how she wants things done. The quizzes and written responses were very easy if you did the (short) readings. Everything considered, show up and you'll do great.

Personally never had trouble with public speaking, but I definitely seen other people in the class get better and open up. This professor is outstanding and relatable. Day one makes you feel comfortable and is so helpful. There are lots of test, quizzes, and speeches. But if you go to class you will for sure pass. Communication is key!

I loved this professor! she always cared and checked in with every one of us! I took this class over the winter so assignments were very few. As long as you got your work done this class was an easy A.

Im not sure how to give a speech by reading a book. There is no communication. The class is confused as to expectations. No videos no lectures Im trying to you tube educate myself. I dont know why Im paying for her to be absent and then tell me Im doing the work wrong. Then TEACH ME!!!

Not the worst- assignments and tests are pretty simple n straightforward. She's actually a pretty chill professor but you do have to go above n beyond to get an A in her class. Read very carefully through the timeline in the syllabus so your not caught off guard trustt

Professor Castro-Spencer is one of my favorite professors. At first I was very intimidated by her class and expectations, but she has a very clear grading criteria, and she makes sure we understand the information we're being taught by both reading the book and going over the material in class. I highly recommend her courses!
