Reviews of professor Abigail Martinez Sotelo

Rating: 3.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
Very eccentric. The class was very interesting and she is very knowledgeable about the subject matter. The essays are kind of long but can be done as long as you stay on track. Has a habit of calling you out in front of the entire lecture. Has lots of office hours and lots of feedback to give. Make sure you talk loudly she can't hear well lol.

Amazing and kind Professor! I really recommend that you take her class. She is always willing to meet with students outside of class to help. Also, she responds quickly to emails!

Profe Sotelo is a very passionate and interesting professor who clearly cares a lot about her student's learning and is extremely knowledgeable in the subjects she teaches about. Her lectures were enjoyable to watch and I liked watching a lot of movies in class. The difficulty was appropriate for a Gen Ed and I thought she graded fairly.

Highly recommend this Spanish teacher. She grades super easily and is super nice. I know for a fact I would not have done as well in 202 if I did not have her as a teacher.

I would definitely take Spanish with her if you can! She makes it easy to succeed and shows she cares about her students.

One of the kindest professors I've ever had. She makes learning Spanish much less scary. This class is an easy A if you just complete all the assignments, and put in some effort. She usually answers her emails within minutes. The only complaint I have is that the textbook was very pricey and it was required.

Dr. Martinez made class so fun and she will definitely call on you, but it doesn't matter if you get the answer wrong, she just wants the class to be interactive and for people to participate. We were always laughing in that class, I'll miss it and having her as a professor.

I took the 5 week summer class this summer and wow, there was a lot happening in this class. . On VHL, there are a LOT of activities that you CANNOT get behind on. The Conversifi lessons were also quite beneficial too. She is very sweet and is very understanding. I would love to have her again as my professor. She really cares about us!

Dr. Sotelo is all over the place with online learning and does not give clear grading criteria whatsoever, but it is extremely easy to get an A if you do the few assignments. She will, however, answer any clarifying questions, so oftentimes class was just a big Q & A session. She really does care about her students and strives to get to know them.

Dr. Sotelo is one of the most caring professors I've ever had. I had her during Covid and she was incredibly understanding. She made sure we were able to reach her when we felt we needed help, she took feedback from her students on how we could be more successful, etc. Her tests are very straightforward. Would take again 100%!!!
