Professor Street is very cool and approachable. The class is mostly asking and answering textbook questions out loud with a partner, and the quizzes/in-class essays/oral exams/tests are all pretty straightforward and not too hard. The hardest part is the online homework Sunday through Thursday, which can take up to two hours sometimes.

Professor Street is a really good teacher and highly recommended for all! The online work is a pain, but that's the same for all 1060 courses. Class is often enjoyable and always bearable. He's always happy to help.
I absolutely recommend Professor Street. He's super cool, very nice, and really easy to talk to. He definitely helps you understand the material. Best Spanish teacher I've ever had! Take 1060 with him!!
Professor Street was an amazing professor for this course - wish he taught 2010. The structure of the class is very fast paced (since it combines 1010 and 1020), but if you have a background in Spanish (I had 4 years of high school Spanish) you will do fine. In the beginning you cover a chapter a day, but then it slows down to two days for a chapter around the second half of the semester. There is a lot of online work with Connect, which can be extremely frustrating, but over all I learned more in 1 semester than I did in 4 years of high school Spanish.
great teacher
The man is a legend, what can I say. He absolutely kills it. Great classes, worthwhile activities, he reminds you constantly of upcoming projects and quizzes/tests. His work is the same as any other 1060 class. Try to get him.
Professor Street is the man. His native language is English so he completely understands which aspects of the Spanish language are tricky for English speakers. He's also super down to earth and wants everyone to do well. Definitely take him.
As far as UVA language classes go, professor street makes class the most enjoyable of any professor I've had. Languages are always a lot of work, but he communicates very clear what is expected of you and makes an effort to be available outside of class.
Seriously one of the best professors I have had. He does such a good job of making sure students are understanding. He relates to students really well and knows how to have fun in class.
TAKE THIS WITH STREET, HE'S GREAT! This class has a lot of work outside of the class but that work it a good buffer grade because it is pretty easy to get A's on the homework assignments. You have a partner project that is not too bad and the exams aren't too hard but get harder as the semester goes on.
