It was an honor taking a class with Profe Griffin. He is extraordinarily dedicated to his students and their success. His class is interactive, engaging, thought provoking, and a great experience overall. He makes the language easier to understand and will do whatever he can to help students grasp the concepts.Rate My Professors ↗

Best teacher I've ever had. Makes personal connections with all of his students and does everything in his power to ensure success for his students. Not only is he funny and a kind teacher, he is extremely caring and understanding of his students.Rate My Professors ↗

Profe Griffin is incredible. He makes an effort to get to know you while enabling you to succeed, and makes class enjoyable and funny. While I think he could do more to enforce a Spanish speaking environment among students in the classroom, I can tell that he supports his students' learning styles, however different they may be.Rate My Professors ↗

Profe Griffin was most certainly the best teacher I had my first semester in college. He teaches the class in an entertaining way and it feels completely personal. He doesn't just lecture or teach grammar rather interacts one on one with each student, learns their name, says hello in the hallways, and is always accessible and willing to talk. 10/10Rate My Professors ↗
