Reviews
Cannot believe that she has such a low rating, she was incredible in class, super funny, and so willing to help if you were confused about something or just wanted extra help. Great prof and person and I hope to have her again

I honestly don't know why the rating is so low, she was an amazing professor when I was there and my class even talked about how we couldn't believe how low her rating was.

As the head of the spanish dept you would think she knows what is going on. I had a different prof who had to step out for part of the semester, and wasnt at the same pace, so there were certain things on an exam that we hadnt done. Schnurr graded them and refused to give any grading mercy despite the fact that we handnt learned it yet.

Honestly, she's as bad as the reviews seem. While she can be disorganized, she grades quickly and there's definitely cohesion when it comes to lessons. However, class is mostly speaking practice while all of the grammar or vocab work (there's a lot of it too) is done independently which isn't my style.. She's not the best, but not the worst either.

AVOID this professor. Schnurr is disorganized. She frequently forgot to post assignments on canvas, and some of her presentations had errors. Attendance is mandatory although I think she forgets to take attendance.

Probably one of the most incompetent professors I've ever had.

Awful Professor, super unorganized. She is amiable in person, but she doesnt care about teaching and her students.

I had Schnurr for Spanish 101 and 102. Easy A's both of them. Just study before the exams, suck up a little, talk lots in class (which helps you practice Spanish anyway), and do the assigned exercises (which take <=10 min). She's got a cute kid and likes to trade restaurant recs. If out of things to talk about, trying those=brownie pts!
