Student’s praised this course for having a small class size, an engaging instructor and a variety of in-class activities. The instructor provided several modes of learning to benefit all the learning styles of the class. Many students thought the uneven distribution of skil level in the class was the worst aspect. The class could be improved by ensuring that everyone enters with similar previous knowledge, and if there were 163fewer questions per homework. Students thinking about taking this class should know that students who took the course found that it was very helpful to have some knowledge of Spanish or another Romance language. The workload was steady but manageable.
