Reviews of professor Gregory Newall

Rating: 3.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Prof Newall is a great guy. Spanish 302 is a hard course and im not sure he did everything he could to help us out. It was more difficult than professors i have had before. I would reccommend him, but definitely take the time to study.

Spanish classes here are heavily synchronized, but Dr. Newall does his best to run the class. Be warned: the class follows a flipped model, so most learning is done outside of class (meaning lots of homework every week) with lectures being times to practice. However, the homework given is easy, and exams are exactly what is expected.

Señor Newall cares about his students and this class shouldn't be hard if you're decent at Spanish and keep up with the readings and homework that every SPAN 210 class gets. He gives good lectures to supplement the homework and leaves a lot of his class for practicing grammar and conversation. Would take again.

Professor Newall was a very nice professor. He added humor to his lessons and cares about his students. The lectures became a little boring at times, similar things every day. His tests and quizzes are very similar to the study guides, I recommend doing them and focusing on the content on them. There's a lot of online homework, but not super hard.

Newall is a fantastic option for 302. It by nature is a hard class (advanced grammar), but he does a great job of making concepts easy to understand and retain. Cares about his students, accessible, also has a good sense of humor. Take him!

I am really bad at Spanish, but Professor Newall is about as good as professors can go. The language classes are all synchronized, so he doesn't have much control over the homework, WHICH IS A LOT. Overall, I had to work fairly hard in this class to get an A, but I'm not great at languages. I get the sense that he's there to help you succeed:)

TAKE HIM. He is an easy grader. Every teacher that taught Spanish uses software called Mindtap and there is a ton of HWs on there. The tests were made by the department too so it's extremely hard. All of it wasn't his fault after all but he tries his best to get you prepared for the test. GREAT TEACHER!

Honestly if it is your last spanish class, take him. He is a real leniant grader when it comes to grading as he is really chill on grading compared to other spanish 122 teachers that I heard about.

The class was your usual format and with a lot of VHL homework too, but the professor seemed genuinely nice, and I loved his laidback nature. He's super lenient with late assignments and grades too. Although I heard 302 is a hard Spanish, he made it very easy. I even tried looking for other classes he's teaching- I highly recommend him!
