Reviews of professor Carlos Barrera Rodriguez

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Carlos was an amazing spanish prof. He actually wants you to learn the language, not just do the work. He points out important aspects and tips for the Spanish language that helped a lot. Participation is important to him, but that is expected in any language class to practice speaking. He has a great personality and is lenient in grading.

He is a nice person in general but isn't that great of a professor. He doesn't communicate well and assumes you know everything, He does not fully explain things. Takes forever to reply emails or doesn't answer at all. Not very helpful when you ask a question.

I love Carlos -- he is so kind and hilarious. The course was not very challenging, but if you are present and attentive you will learn a lot! My favorite part of his class was hearing about his experiences as an immigrant from Nicaragua. He has very funny and enlightening insights. Very enjoyable class.

Horrible teacher! Funny but never explains. I would recommend another teacher!

Very hard class and tests are difficult, but he truly cares for his students and encourages participation in a safe environment. Although hard, he wants his students to succeed. Make sure you study hard, it's worth it!

Carlos was one of the best Spanish professors I had, even if I didnt do so well in his class. He was able to help out and was available to talk to at any time, and was genuinely hilarious and helped us learn as we went.

Extremely nice guy and funny. Learning a lot because I'm not too afraid to ask questions. Its a difficult class for me because languages are pretty hard but he notices when you're trying and doesn't take too many points off for little mistakes, which is nice!

Professor Rodriguez is funny in class. He is not the best at communication via email. A few times, I emailed him with concerns and received no response. For tests, he does not give a study guide. Conversifi and writing practice help students practice grammar, vocabulary, and fluency in Spanish. A good class but an ok teacher.
