Comment:
She is a nice lady but terrible teacher. I took spanish through highschool and placed in her 104 class, but i've learned more from the book than i did from her. I had to teach myself material i wasnt familiar with, making it difficult to get good grades. Study for her 3 exams and do good and you can keep a decent grade in the class. dont take her.

Comment:
Simply terrible, she has no idea what shes doing. Not only is there a lot of homework, but the day before its due she emails you more. Her spanish and english is terrible. Class can be fun sometimes, and quizzes are usually easy, But avoiding her is the best option.

Comment:
Although perhaps a nice woman outside of class, she is disorganized, confused, a tends to ramble and causes chaos with her assignments. She never manages her time well. She has yet to respond to any student emails, she never goes to office hours. Her grading is incomprehensible and biased and the class is simply stressful.

Comment:
If you love a disorganized teacher who cant get her act together, than she is it. I would avoid at all cost!! She does not teach you at all in class at all or go over any of the homework. All she does is have conversations with you and then when it comes to the tests she does not understand why everyone is not doing well

Like stated in other comments she is crazy. At times this can be enjoyable, but for the most part it is just annoying. Have no clue what my grade is and the tests are really hard. I would not recommend her unless you like to torture yourself!

Comment:
Honest, I can't believe there are such negative comments about Dr. Murphy! Sure, she may be a little scatter-brained, but she is extremely down to earth and really funny. I thoroughly enjoyed my class with her last semester and would gladly take another one of her classes.

Comment:
Murphy is crazy--let's just establish that right off the bat. I'm not sure what my grade is, or what she's ever doing or saying, but she's amusing. She loves my section and will go off-topic often. I'd say take her...it's random but you can get by without doing much work.

The hardest class Ive taken in my college career. She's an extremely hard grader and her tests are ridiculous. I thought I was decent at spanish and I could barely understand a word she said I really hated going to class every tuesday and thursday and thats the saddest part.

Comment:
Horrible. Tests were impossible, hard quizzes. Two papers, 2 cultural events. You have to talk during class, always do your homework, she collects it at the end of the semester! I didnt learn anything, i knew more before i took this class. I dreaded going to class, seriously the worst ever. Please dont take her, unless you enjoy pain, lots of pain.

Murphy is a really nice lady. Sometimes she can be scatterbrained but she is in no way trying to hurt your grade. She is hard to understand at first, but once you get the hang of her class is really fun since you have no idea of how it is relevant.

Comment:
HORRIBLE...DO NOT TAKE A CLASS WITH HER! she spends most of class mumbling something like a ver between every sentence. She rarely speaks in complete sentences, then expects you to understand what the assignments are. The classes are unorganized and there is alot of useless busy work. I had a grasp of grammar then this class completely confused me

Comment:
I am a spanish minor and native speaker and this course and professor I have ever taken in high school or college If you have the choice, DON'T take her! She is so disorganized and will give arbitrary assignments not on the syllabus. She doesn't like to teach so she'll give you random presentations.

Comment:
She is the most disorganized professor I've ever had, and I haven't learned anything this semester. In-class discussion in scattered and undirected. Painful, painful, painful. Like the comment before, I didn't think she could be that bad, but I regret not paying attention to what everyone else has said about her!!

When i read all these ratings I thought that this woman couldn't possibly be as bad as this but in fact, she is exactly how everyone has described her! She thinks her class is the only one we have to take, she's beyond disorganized, and she is soooo scatterbrained! AVIOD AT ALL COSTS!!!

Comment:
We definately had some sort of feminine vibe going in the class b/c there was only one guy in it! I guess she is a but unclear, but she loves the language and tries to encourage her students to use it with confidence.

Comment:
Don't get me started on her. Terrible teacher. Homework to do every class that is lengthy. Makes you write papers on 4 movies or so during the year IN SPANISH. If I didn't have a great Spanish education in high school, I WOULD HAVE FAILED THIS COURSE!
