Reviews of professor Alejandra Takahira

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
This class is fairly difficult but it is the most spanish I have learned in such a short period of time, which was amazing! Despite the class being a tad difficult, Takahira answered all my questions about anything! She really cares and wants you to learn and understand. She gets back to your emails very quick! If you take this class, take her.

Alejandra is a great teacher but the material is very challenging because class moves at a very fast pace. Even one day absent will put you significantly behind. She teachers to the student well and is willing to explain things multiple times. It is evident she wants you to succeed. The exams themselves aren't incredibly difficult.

Alejandra was one of the best professors that I have had at the U. Even though this class was extremely difficult, Alejandra made sure that all of the students had the ability to succeed. Willing to talk over why and how she graded and was willing to make amendments. Easy to contact outside of class and explain the material.

The worst teacher I have had yet at the University of Minnesota. She will tell you that you are doing great in the class and then give you a 75% in participation. I have always gotten As in Spanish until I have taken her class. She clearly picks favorites and is a very unprofessional teacher. I feel bad for anyone who has to survive this class.
