This class was really pretty easy. It wasn't too time-consuming. No textbook required, she had all the readings online and there were never a lot, maybe a couple pages for class and not even for every class period. There are bi-weekly reactions to readings and 3 in-class quizzes. 3 papers including the final paper. The first 2 are only 2 pages long while the final paper is 4-5 pages long. One oral presentation to the class with a partner. That's about it for the class.

Professor herself is really nice. She's just cool, really chill. She's been one of my favorite professors so far (top 5 in my 2 years here) and my favorite from all my Spanish teachers so far. She's really nice and approachable, would recommend her to everyone, and would take this class again in a heartbeat. There's really no reason not to take this class.

Professor Venegas is one of the most helpful and caring professors I've had at UCLA. She genuinely wants every student to do well and makes the class super engaging!

Professor Venegas is a GEM. Even over zoom, you can tell she cares so much about each and every student. She is super encouraging and tolerant of mistakes. 100/10 would take a class with her again. TAKE SPANISH WITH HER!!!! por favor!!!
