Reviews of professor David Ferrandez

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
Professor Ferrandez (also goes by Cortes) is AMAZING. Literally. He makes learning Spanish enjoyable and makes it easy to understand. He gives practice similar to the exams as well as study guides. Gives a lot of extra credit opportunities. A lot of online homework, but so easy to do. If you have to take Spanish at UK, take him. You won't regret it

He gives many extra credit opportunities which is nice but he never goes by the syllabus. He has his favorites and if you're not one of them, well goodluck. You have to actually study for the exams or you will not receive a good grade.

Literally will do anything to help his students learn/ be successful in class. After I took him for SPA 102, I refused to take 201 and 202 with anyone BUT David. He's so personable and is so funny. He makes Spanish class fun, when I used to DREAD going to Spanish before. If you're debating between him and any other prof, seriously- TAKE HIM.

This was an enjoyable class. He is very helpful if you do not understand something; you just have to be willing to ask. Participation is important. Exams are timed, but not super difficult if you prepare. Weekly homework is straightforward. He was very accommodating when I had to miss class; just have a good reason and let him know ahead of time.

He is by far the best Spanish professor that I've had so far! He really cared and respected his students and did whatever he could to get us involved. My Spanish improved so much because of him! Definitely take him if you have the chance!!!

First of all I am not good at Spanish yet finished with an A. David was very helpful and explained the language extremely well even with me not getting the basics in Spa 101. I loved his course and would 100% recommend! I would also recommend getting a tutor that helped me a lot!
