SPAN 1060

TAKE PROFESSOR YOUNG. She is the best Spanish teacher out there! I hated Spanish before college and dreaded taking it but Prof Young make the class super engaging and a comfortable environment to practice speaking and ask questions.
First off, every Spanish class has the exact same homework, assignments, exams, etc. due to Spanish department policy so no SPAN 1060 class is going to have less work than any of the others. Since this is a 4 credit beginner language course, there is about 4-6 hours of online homework per week, but it isn't difficult and really helps you learn the concepts. There is so much buffer with assignments in this class that the final is only worth 10% of your grade and it is incredibly feasible to get an A albeit it being a 95.5 per Spanish department policy.
PROFESSOR YOUNG is fantastic. She is always willing to help you, especially if you attend office hours, and will even go out of her way to schedule a separate time that works for you in the case you can't make it to the prescheduled times. I HIGHLY recommend going to her office hours if not for help but just to get to know her because she rocks :-). However, in the case you do need help I would DEFINITELY go because she goes over all the information you need to know for exams in a way you can understand better than learning it on your own.

Professor Young makes the class really enjoyable. She was always very enthusiastic and wanted each student to succeed. She was also available and very helpful outside of class. I definitely recommend going to her office hours because she will make it worth while. The workload is a lot but doable and all the assignment were also helpful and necessary to learn the material. It covers a lot of material as it is two classes combined but you will learn a lot. She also grades very quickly and gives good feedback. I highly recommend Professor Young for 1060 as she makes the class.

Definitely take this class with Professor Young! Professor Young is the best professor I have ever had at UVa. She is so helpful and really wants her students to succeed. Spanish 1060 is a lot of work but it is not that bad if you do your work on time! She explains everything so well and is always there to help students understand the concepts. She always makes herself available outside of class to meet with students and returns grades extremely fast. If you need to take Spanish or are interested in it, 100% take it with her. :)

If you love Spanish, take this course with Profesora Young!! She cares about her students a lot and will work to help you as much as possible. She will make sure you are prepared for the tests and she grades everything at the speed of light. This class, regardless of the teacher, is not easy. There is a lot of homework and the tests cover a lot of material. This is typical of an accelerated course and is out of the professor's control. However, Profesora Young makes the class the best it can be because she is so well-prepared and caring. You will only succeed in this class if you put in as much work as Profesora, though. Just because she is a good teacher does not mean you can coast. Take Prof. Young and buena suerte :)

This is a class that combines SPAN 1010 and SPAN 1020 in one semester, so it is accelerated and has more work than normal semesters. However, Professor Young makes it so enjoyable. She is so enthusiastic and patient with her students. I thoroughly enjoyed going to class every day and she made me love Spanish again. She genuinely wants her students to succeed and is so willing to help. If you want to be successful in Spanish, definitely take it with Professor Young!!

TAKE THIS CLASS WITH PROF. YOUNG!!!! She is the best and really wants her students to succeed and learn the language. The class has a hefty workload but that is expected as a four credit course. The way the class is scheduled really organizes the busy work and makes it so easy. GO to her office hours and she is more than willing to help you from the very start. I would not recommend anyone else for this course.

SPAN 1060 was not bad at all. However, there was a lot of homework, but they were very easy assignments. I learned so much in this class. I know that leaning a new language such as Spanish is difficult and very challenging, and sometimes very intimidating, but Prof. Young is the best. She makes the class fun and enjoyable that learning Spanish was not bad at all. There was a lot of concepts to learn and understand for this class, but if you put in the effort to do all the homework on time, study for all the exams, and participate every class then you should be just fine. She explains everything so well and she will help you understand if any concepts are confusing. She is such a great person, she is always very helpful in class and during office hours. She cares so much about her students and she is usually available whenever you need her through email/office hours. She's awesome and I loved her class. I very highly recommend her.

There is a lot of homework for this class and it can get pretty tedious but it's really not that difficult, just long. Professor Young is awesome and makes class go by quickly! She is very organized and helps you stay on top of your assignments, which there are a lot of! It's not too hard to get an A, especially if you study continuously throughout the semester, but that isn't necessary.

Spanish in general is not fun due to excessive homework and onerous assignments. Prof. Young makes it so much better. She is really nice, cares about all of her students, and isn't the hardest grader. She often will give away tips about the exams, and is an amazingly fast grader. Everyone in my class liked her, and I wish I could have her for the next level. I learned so much from her class! Highly, highly recommend her.
