Professor Feitosa is such a nice woman; really, I was taken aback by how easy she is to work with and how she makes things very accessible for her students. I appreciated it.
Also, she doesn't grade harshly and I think she wants her students to do well first and foremost. However, she starts speaking Portuguese on day one, so be prepared for that.
Professora Lilian is incredibly sweet and thoughtful, although not the best language instructor I've ever had. I still definitely think the course was worthwhile. It felt like a high school class, with lots of workbook assignments (MyLab), compositions, and quizzes. This was time-consuming but useful. Class time was dedicated to oral activities from the textbook. I didn't have any Spanish or French going into Portuguese, but it wasn't a problem.
The class is super easy if you're decently fluent in Spanish. I hardly studied, because it all made sense and could be remembered based off of Spanish. The online workbook "MyLab" is repetitive and pretty useless, as well as being time-consuming, though it's mindless work. I thought the professor was kind of "eh". She graded leniently, often marking errors on quizzes and giving full credit anyway. We could have covered more/learned more if she'd taught differently.
