Besides the one test, all the grades (as of today) are based on completion. That doesn't mean to go and answer randomly, as he does check, but if you put in your best effort you'll get a good grade on the assignment. I also recommend that you use your class resources (Canvas, VHL, Quizlet) to access your vocabulary. If you have a question, don't hesitate to ask him to be invited to one of his Learning Hub meetings--when I went to them, they have all been really short, simple and my question is typically answered within the first 5 to 10 minutes.

Alright, I found and signed up for RateMyTeachers as a joke and then I saw my school on here, so I'm giving honest reviews on my teachers. My school is kind of weird, so I had my Spanish teacher switched to Senor Burton from another Spanish teacher in the middle of the year. I don't know why the change was made, but I have no complaints about it! The learning material is given in small portions and it adds up--for example, my La Familia vocabulary may be used in sentences and phrases from past vocabulary. He always asks if there's any questions at the end of class, and he wants us to be successful. He uses tools such as Gimkit, Quizizz and Kahoot to introduce or review the material to us in an engaging yet educational way. I have no complaints about the curriculum or Senor Burton in general.
