Reviews of professor Santiago Quintero

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Quintero is one of the best professors I've had at Furman. He is incredibly intelligent and passionate about his students and his job. Class was always funny and he is always up-beat and excited to teach. Quintero cares a lot about your progress and really enjoys teaching, and the class isn't too difficult. You need to participate. Absolute 5 stars

Dr. Quintero is very kind and doesn't make his class extremely difficult. You have to break out of your shell and participate if you want sympathy for your performance on the midterm and papers if you performed poorly.

A tough class but if you want to learn Spanish, take him. He truly cares about his students learning, not just grades. Participation matters a great deal but you will leave the class SIGNIFICANTLY better at Spanish than when you started. Would highly recommend him.

He is a nice person but is incredibly disorganized. Since he is so knowledgeable of the language, he has a difficult time simplifying information for beginners. The tests and quizzes are challenging even if you study; sometimes, it is hard to tell where and why you lost points. Expect to teach yourself, but you can do it! Use your resources.

Dr. Quintero is an easy, fun professor for intro Spanish. You must participate to get a good grade, but that is pretty much it. Tests are very straightforward and easy. No group projects and almost no homework. He is funny in class but never responds to emails. Great class atmosphere.

He does not make the assessments himself therefore they  are incredibly difficult because it is not material you have gone over before in class. Also not very accessible outside of class.
