Reviews of professor Isabel Bustamante

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
She is horrible. Her instructions are so confusing and unclear, and she teaches the class like everyone is an expert in Spanish even though the class is Spanish 1. I don't understand how she's the department chair. She should lose her job

If you are looking to just get by and do busy work, that is what you will find here. Her class isn't too bad, but don't expect her to be very responsive to your emails if you have concerns. This is especially annoying during finals week.

This class was pretty engaging which made it easy. The weekly quizzes are based on the modules & can be found in them. The projects she assigned were straightforward as well. She is an understanding teacher & will help to make sure you understand if you're lost.

This class is hybrid so we only met once a week but it felt like a waste of time to go that 1 day. She just read off the slides & everything we did there could have been done at home. The tests are online which is good! We had a few essays, discussion boards, & 1 research paper. The class isn't hard but it's boring so it's easy to fall behind!

Definitely didn't learn much in this class. Bought a textbook we didn't end up needing even though she said we did. Felt like all her work was busy work. She's some-what nice, pretty easy A

The lectures did not seem necessary to me to understand the info, the reading was enough for me. The tests are based on the slide shows, so just knowing those was enough to secure a high grade for me. Dr. Bustamante is disorganized on canvas which was a little annoying, so check everywhere for assignments, I had many late submissions.

You won't learn much if you don't have self-discipline given that her lectures are based mostly on reviewing her PowerPoints. If you're looking for a challenging class that will bring you lots of knowledge then you should look elsewhere but i can guarantee you an easy A in Bustamante's class. She is also a spn advisor so that's a big perk.
