Reviews of professor Allison Caras

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Outstanding Professor. Without a doubt the best Spanish instructor I've ever had, both within the university and elsewhere. Highly recommend for all 1000 level Spanish classes at GW. While the class is not an easy A, that has a lot to do with the department. That being said, she is always willing to help and you will learn a lot in this class.

She is so sweet, and gives great feedback. She is also accessible for help outside of or after class if you have any questions or need help. She makes sure to prepare everyone for listening, speaking, writing, and reading Spanish. The language curriculum at GW is pretty strict but Prof. Caras does her best to make it fun and educational.

Allison is the sweetest professor ever. Her class is not very difficult if you go to the lectures and do the assignments, and she is always happy and willing to help her students. On the first day of class she makes clear that she wants her students to call her "Allison" and the class really has a sense of community (even though it was online).

I love Profa Caras! She is so sweet and caring, and is always completely transparent with assignments and grading criteria. She really is an amazing professor who will help you learn the language.

Professor Caras is extremely nice and helpful being that she isn't a native speaker and understands the struggle of learning Spanish coming from English. The tests and homework assignment rigor isn't her doing, rather the Spanish department's requirements. She is always upbeat and polite and will take the time to explain the material if you need.

Caras is a wonderful, caring professor and truly cares for her students. Unfortunately the Spanish program makes the tests very hard (avg is 78%) for no reason, and doesnt really measure your Spanish proficiency.
