Reviews of professor Sandra Garcia Gutierrez

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
I took 105 and 300 with Sandra but would've taken more if she taught them. She's super approachable and doesn't berate you for wrong answers and encourages learning from mistakes. A total sweetheart who acknowledges when she's made a mistake. Quick at grading and gives the exam layout before hand. Homework was manageable with flexible deadlines.

She was great! I felt like this was more of a review class, so it's weird going from the first 5 levels of Spanish where you're learning the language to more of an analysis of it. It was way easier than 261. She was forgiving, and just made class an all-around pleasant experience. I would love to take another class with her!

Sandra was really nice and caring! The breakout rooms were a little much and she cold calls, but it wasnt bad at all. The tests were a little hard but it may be because it was online and learning a language is never easy. Overall, she was great and shes a pretty easy grader when it comes to quizzes (they are easy). I would take Sandra again!

Sandra is awesome! She is a lenient grader and a very sweet person. I always liked coming to her class because she gave it a positive atmosphere. Take her!

Definitely take a class with Gutierrez. She's very forgiving and patient, especially on important aspects of language-learning like pronunciation and conjugations. Also quite flexible for due dates as she truly cares for her students. 204 isn't easy but she makes it enjoyable!

I had her for a special topics class and it was really fun. I read a lot of cool material and learned a lot of interesting things! She was always incredibly kind, patient, and made participating low-stress. She did sometimes cold-call, but very rarely. Attendance seemed more relaxed, but that might've been unique given the class/semester events!

One of the sweetest professors I've had. The workload she gave was very reasonable, usually just a reading before each class. Readings would be discussed in class the next day and she made clear the main takeaways we needed from each one. Not a tough grader, gives good feedback, and was very attainable to end with a high grade in the class.

She was one of my nicest professors I've had and her class was very manageable. The readings were sometimes a bit difficult or long but were always discussed in class the next day. She made it very easy to succeed and would give the exact content to know for exams. Bigger assignments weren't graded harshly and she gave good feedback.

Sandra was really nice and her class wasn't that bad. She is a native speaker so it can be hard to understand her but you get used to it. Her lectures are cut and dry and just go over what you read in the textbook. I would take a class with her again.
