Additional comments:
b. I enjoy it when we play competitive games because I feel like I
absorb more information and memorize things quicker.
d. The one thing is the class moves really fast and you speak so quickly
in Spanish I never understand what youre saying and whats going on,

so it makes me feel like I can participate, especially if youre asking us

questions in Spanish and then were supposed to talk in Spanish.
f. I like that the professor is well organized and makes the expectations
of the class clear.
g.I like that we were able to first feel comfortable with eachother in the
beginning so that Im not scared or too shy to talk. Although I was like
the class to have more Spanish being spoken. I understand why the
English is being spoken in directions, but more Spanish would be a
plus.
h. I just wish we could narrow down what vocab to study for quizzes
instead of studying 60 words for only 10 questions.
Havent utilized Quizlet yet.
I probably would if there were lessons up instead of having to make
them, but then again I do understand that its a lot of work!
I feel like Im learning a lot.
l.I can honestly say that just in the past few weeks, I feel like my
Spanish skills have definitely improved.
