Reviews of professor Octavio Borges-Delgado

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Prof. Borges Delgado is one of the best instructors I've ever had. At first, the work seemed like it would be a lot (with all the essays and exams and homework), but he divides it all up into bite-sized chunks and makes it manageable. He is extremely caring and understanding, he's a great guy and a great professor. Would highly recommend him :)

He was a great professor. I feel like I understand the basics of Spanish very well (which is impressive because previously I have done upwards of 5 years of a language and still felt like I didn't know anything). Is super helpful and I highly recommend taking him

Truly the worst class I've taken. Grading criteria varies widely from assignment to assignment and feedback is unclear. Expects in-depth quiz answers in an unreasonable amount of time. Very vague if you ask for assistance outside of class, and condescending if you try to contest grades. He's a generally nice guy, but bad professor.

Octavio's class was definitely my favorite this semester! He pushes everyone to speak during class which really forced me to learn and become more comfortable with Spanish. Very caring and understanding professor, I highly recommend taking a class with him!

He's a nice person but not a great teacher. He has those assignments that he gives during class, open-ended questions which I have to answer in Spanish. Therefore, I have to translate from English to Spanish, but there isn't enough time. I wish I had dropped his class. I am going to have to take another 400 level class.

He is great at efficiently teaching Spanish grammar/conjugation. I personally really enjoyed this class because I love learning Spanish and he really made class fun. Workload is really not that much.

Professor Delgado is a nice and funny person, but is absolutely horrible and problematic at teaching. He makes you do assignments in the last ten minutes of class . His grading is not clear at all. He has unreal expectations and underestimated the time it takes to get work done. Would not recommend taking this class.

Prof. Borges-Delgado is a nice professor. Very accessible and cares about the students. He is a tough professor though. you have to work for your grade. In class the discussions are very intense like very deep and if you didnt read you'll be lost. But the classes are fun and I liked that he was flexible in terms of papers late due to valid excuses.

Prof. Borges is a really really great professor. He makes you work for a good grade, the content of his classes is naturally difficult, as it is advanced grammar structure in Spanish however he will help you every step of the way and is incredibly caring, nice and funny. Highly recommend, one of my favorite professors at Bing.
