Reviews of professor Jesus Carrasco

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
I took Prof. Carrasco for both Span 1441 and 42. I would say you definitely can't slack off in this class. It's hard. I took online so I can't speak for the in-person class but I can say a lot of it was on your own. Lots of reading. There wasn't much info in the lectures until the 2nd year. However, he was VERY kind and helpful if you emailed him.

Horrible. Avoid like the plague .

Hes pretty easy if you know Spanish. He doesnt like it if you are struggling so dont take him unless youre pretty good already. He did have favorites and was bias to those who had a Spanish first or last name and had favorites in class who already spoke good Spanish, and that didnt seem fair, made it hard for those without a Spanish surname

Extremely nice. Classes were fun. Teaches extremely fast and moves on as long as a few people understand. I learned 95% of the material from the online assignments which had unlimited attempts. Try until you get a 100. Tests were fairly easy except the oral questions which you had to answer back in Spanish. Easy A if you keep up w/ assignments.

He doesn't give out 100s easily. Every detail has to be correct. The reviews for exams are absolutely nothing like the test at all, and he never gives the answers for questions he posts. Overall, you can pass, but there will be no answers given, no easy assignments, and heavy emphasis on tests.

He will randomly call on you in class. you just have to get used to it. Other than that, he was really cool and the study guides were just like the exams.

I've taken Prof. Carrasco for both spanish 1 and 2 (online) and he was awesome! I didn't have any previous knowledge in spanish, and I still made the easy A. Make sure you do your homework, read the book, take good notes, and STUDY for the exams. His reviews were exactly like the exams. Notecards helped me a lot!

This class was so easy, especially considering it was online. There's pretty much 2/3 things due a week, which only takes about 20 minutes to complete each. The book gives you pretty much everything you need to know so make sure you read! I definitely recommend taking him, you will not regret it!
