Reviews of professor Miguel Arbues

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Very nice teacher. He only assigned homework to prepare for test and it helped. His tests were straight to the point and if you know what your doing, is easy. Pay attention, participate, do the homework and you will easily pass. Explains the language very well.

Took him for 101 & 102 for summer session 1 and summer session 2. He is amazing! He genuinely cares about his students and does everything he can to make sure we understand what we are learning. The exams are fair, one chapter per week and a final written and oral exam on the last day of class. Do the homework, participate in class & you'll pass!

If you have not taken Spanish before, this will be a difficult class. He does not have a very clear teaching style. He jumps from topic to topic with little notes on the board and no power points to follow. He can be a caring professor, but also some times cant be. I honestly would not recommend taking him unless you have a good grasp of Spanish.

He is such a sweet guy! One of my favorite professors I enjoyed learning from him. He REALLY cares about his students! His jokes are funny! He made class really fun, he gave us a lot of music videos to watch in class so class was pretty good! I took him during the summer and it was a good choice to do!

Such a sweet professor . He really tries his best to make his students understand the material by interacting/asking questions to the class in Spanish to get some practice . His tests are straight forward for the most part . There is however a quick oral presentation (which is basically a conversation with him ) at the end of the semester.

Dr. Arbues clearly cared a lot about his subject, explained things well, was willing to answer questions, and had a great sense of humor. I took a lot of notes and had to teach myself a few concepts outside of class to keep up but I loved his class. He is very realistic with his teaching style and I would love to be able to have him again!

get ready to SPEAK SPANISH. his lectures are mostly him writing on the board and asking questions to the class in spanish but it is very easy to catch on to what he is saying. i took 3 years of spanish in high school and didnt learn nearly as much spanish as i learned this semester!

Professor Arbues was amazing! Over the summer there's 6 quizzes, and homework on connect. He really does care about his students.

I took this class over the summer without taking 101, and my last Spanish class being four years ago. He has three exams, participation grades, and an oral presentation. He goes over whatll be on the exam in class, in great detail. No surprises on his test. Highly suggest taking for an easy A
