Reviews of professor Laura Rios

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
I did not like her whatsoever. She grades heavily based off of opinion. She interrupts while you answer a question and is rarely prepared for class. SHE IS ALWAYS LATE and gets mad if you leave. There are LOADS of homework assignments EVERY day. If you have taken 2 years of Spanish, DO NOT TAKE HER!

I found Sra Rios to be a very good teacher her tests are just like her study guides and she goes over the study guide in class. Attendance is mandatory if you miss more then a certain number you will automatically fail her class. Be ready to do ilearn assignments. Overall class is very easy just do your work. Beware sometimes she can be moody

Knows her stuff. A lot of quizzes and tests. Has study guides. Lecture heavy, but the majority of the lecture is going around the room performing exercises out loud, so you will participate. A TON of homework online with additional paper handouts. Overall teaches very well and makes sure we all understand before moving on.

It was absolutely horrifying being in that class, she literally wants you to be FLUENT in Spanish by the 2nd week. No matter how hard you try with this lady she wont care. good luck to whoever has her. She also rushes with her lectures and interrupts RUDELY to the students, and gets frustrated if we pronounce a word wrong like lady give us a break

Rios is a great Professor. I had a small class so we had to speak up and answer questions. She gave us plenty of worksheets & assignments to help us learn the material. Do not expect to leave class early or have any days off. This is definitely not an easy class because there is so much info, but I recommend taking her. Bring your book!!!!!!

She is soooo inconsistent. She will be saying that we have an assignment that is due on this day, but the very next class meeting, she will change it to some other day. Also, she has a really bad habit of interrupting students when they are trying to answer a question she asked. One day, we counted, and the most she has interrupted was 73 times.

Usually always shows up late to class (I took her early class that was 50 mins. Always rushed through lessons and seems flustered sometimes. Gave homework without going through all the material in a timely manner. I had a hard time understanding all the materials. For granted, this class is supposedly the hardest Spanish class no matter the teacher

She's really bad about interrupting students mid-sentence, and never gives students time to complete assignments. There were multiple days that she would assign last-minute homework in the last 5 minutes of class, and she's very disrespectful towards students she feels aren't trying hard enough, which means students who struggled with the material.
