Mr Vincent is a good professor of you put in the work. Its very group project heavy and homework heavy but he helps a lot. Very kind and really takes the time to make sure you understand. This class was hard as a non native speaker but I passed with a good grade just due to the amount of time I put in every day to study.

I honestly believe that everyone who has given Professor Vincent a negative review is bitter about not getting an easy A. You work for the grade that you earn. No language is easy so I dont understand why many people expect an easy pass. Invest the time and Own up to your own mistakes of not putting in the work rather than blaming others

This is the perfect professor that one should take if they already are fluent in Spanish.... if you don't know any Spanish don't take Paul. If you like to listen to poems this is the class for you, I'm not joking he read his poems to us! You really never learn in this class, you don't know when the test are or the quizzes. DONT TAKE!!! RUNNNNNN

If you don't have any previous experience with Spanish, don't take this guy. Wastes most of the class ranting about his personal life and then crams everything in at the end- expect to teach yourself 75% of the material. He changes the syllabus haphazardly, forgets his own changes, and will absolutely throw you under the bus with unexpected exams.

He is a really nice guy and very knowledgeable about the subject, but he is not the greatest teacher. He gets off track super easily and half the class we talk about everything but Spanish. You have to be good at working on your own. His tests are really hard and he doesn't help you prepare for them. Super nice person, but take a different prof

Took his class and i can honestly say he is slow to warm up but definitely would take his class again. He is a funny professor and actually tries to help everybody in class. He is an easy grader as long as you participate and put effort in his class. So if you're looking for an easy A, just take this class and make an effort to try to learn

He made class fun, but would often cancel. He was out for about half the semester. Another teacher had to fill in. He wasted a lot of time. For those who don't know much about Spanish, take another teacher. We had 5 group oral presentations. He ended up cancelling the portion of the final for the individual oral presentation in my class.

This class was a joke. He wasn't there for half the semester and/or didn't show up and we were responsible for learning most of the material on our own. Yes, this is an absolute easy A class, but it will not prepare you for Spanish 2. I'm dying right now in that class.

Proffesor Vincent is an amazing Spanish teacher, I really enjoyed his class and just knew I had to leave him a review. Very caring and understanding. Wish he taught Spanish 121 :/ However, if you have no background in Spanish from high school you really do have to put in a solid amount of study time, and attendance is important! Overall a fun class

Professor Vincent is very caring and understanding. This class is a foreign language so it isn't easy for everyone, it takes effort. You miss a day, its on you. The class consists of online homework, a hw packet, vocab quizzes, journals, oral presentations, and exams. This may seem like a lot but you are given time in class and the hw is quick

This was by far my favorite teacher I've had! He is extremely helpful and is one of the few teachers that care. He is pretty lenient on attendance but since it is a foreign language, missing classes will effect your comprehension of the material, usually then reflecting so on quizzes and tests. He is very understanding and very generous on grading.

Profesor Paul is the greatest. Very understanding. We took a field trip to Estrada's to practice our Spanish. You will need a blue book for writing, has presentations based on lectures. If you take profesor Paul remember to mention the Holy Guacamole presentation. Also if you mention the word "Chip" pronounce it as cheeps. He will love this.

Probably the best professor I have taken at GC. Incredibly nice and made me look forward coming to class every day. If you do the packets, study the vocab, and just practice writing in Spanish, you would pass the class with an A easily. Everyone enjoyed the class and I'm definitely going to miss it.

If you took spanish in HS this class is easy and he is good for you, if you did not you may struggle because he is not super organized or specific. He is nice though, and will help you pass.

He is one of the best teachers I have ever had. I would take him over and over again. He says attendance is mandatory but he is very understanding and doesn't really care. He is such a cute and nice man. Makes a lot of jokes and makes the class enjoyable. The class has a bit of work but thats expected with a foreign language class. Take him!
