Reviews of professor Maria Enciso

Rating: 2.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Most of the class was taught in Spanish and went a lot faster than I was able to understand. If you're already confident in your ability to understand Spanish then don't worry about this class. But if you have never practiced your listening skills before then get ready to study. She is a nice lady but not a good teacher.

Honestly a very sweet lady, but she cannot teach. She never gives clear directions but grades really harshly and spends a lot of class time talking about random stuff. save yourself, pick another professor.

By far the worst professor I've had at Chapman. Other students in the same section with other teachers did not have the same issues our class had.

At the beginning of the semester she may seem like a hard professor. However, let a few weeks pass and you will see what a great, caring, helpful, and funny person she is. Speaks in Spanish a lot, but will clarify in English. By department rules: 2 exams, 3 quizzes, two oral presentations, and 2 in class essays. She loves to talk about culture.

She was in fact not a good professor. I looked on this website and saw that she was a clear speaker and good teacher. She does not teach you well simply because she is in her own head a lot. She does not get any ideas across and only talks about culture. Get a different professor if you want to learn in class and not on your computer in the library

Very sweet and nice lady but she does not know how to teach. You will not learn any material in this class and instead will be learning about her life lessons. You learn everything from the homework and puts things on tests she has never talked about before. The most frequent cold caller I've seen and purposely tries to embarrass students at times.

Good professor. She cares that you do well. The lessons are very unstructured, but she does a good job of going over everything that is in each chapter. She goes out of her way to help her students. If you go to class, participate, and do your best to talk in Spanish you will at least get a B. Put in the effort and you'll do well.

This professor was kind. But she spoke in Spanish most of the time. 1% of the class she speaks in English. I have dyslexia and auditory processing so it was extremely difficult for me to succeed. This is a class you need a lot of time study and self teaching outside of class. The homework was fine but you have to know the material well for tests.

Extremely nice and helpful lady. Follows the department rules as necessary but cares about each student and explains material very well. Loves talking about real life application of vocab and grammar. Is big on talking about different cultures in Spanish. Overall is an interactive and fun class. Would take again with her if I could.
