Comment:

If you dont pass this class, youre not trying. His tests, are his reviews. He does his reviews in class while going over the chapters. If you ask for the answer to a question, he will give it to you with an explanation behind it. Im currently taking him for 1301 and will be definitely be taking him next semester. Hes amazing!!

He is a really good professor, his work is easy and he is really funny and likes to make jokes. He dose give a lot of quizzes but if you keep him talking sometimes you don't have to take them. He's real chill as long and you're not disrespectful while he's doing a lecture.

Comment:

Aguirre is a funny professor and tells alot of life stories which doesnt make his class boring but he does ramble alot and his lectures arent clear. Although, as long as the class participates and ask alot of questions he wont be hard on you regarding test and quizzes. You do need to attend class to pass bc again, he is very random on his lectures.

Mr. Aguirre is really an awsome teacher . He is funny, tells interesting life stories, talks about history events that are memorable, and easy to remember. If you don't ask questions and participate, he will give you a pop quiz. Reading is a must ! Words of advice. BE ON TIME, DON'T MISS SCHEDULED CLASSES, PARTICIPATE, ASK ALOT OF QUESTIONS!

Comment:

Prof. Aguirre is a respected man with a lot of life experiences. His lectures about life experience tie into his history lectures. Beware of "pop quizzes" if no class participation. I loathe history and he definitely made class more interesting. Not a tough grader either.

Mr. Aguirre is a great professor, you will not regret taking him! Readings are posted online so you will not need the book. Quizzes are only 10-15 questions long and are directly from the reading.

Mr Aguirre is THE BEST History teacher, and one of the greatest teachers you can have! I wish he could everything so I could take each class! His class is super easy to pass, all you have to do is listen to his lectures and turn in each take home quiz. He has many stories that he says during each lecture that will make you keep you entertained(:

He's not clear during his lectures. He started talking about what was going to be on the test then it would turn into his personal life. Didn't learn much. I wouldn't take him.

Comment:

There are about twelve- 10 question quizzes throughout the semester, but he will drop 3 of them at the end of the semester. Don't miss class, because chances are there will be a quiz that day. Take notes of the lecture and pay attention to when he starts summarizing the lecture, because that means he is going to give a quiz. No textbook needed!

I took him over the spring for US History 1301 and in the summer I took 1302 online telecourse. It was super easy, he gives out a lot of quizzes but as long as you show up to class everyday, read the assigned articles and never miss a quiz you will pass with an easy A . I would defiantly recommend to take him..

Mr Agurrie is wonderful and very understanding. He can get off subject a little bit but he makes it clear with what he's trying to say. He gives a lot of quizzes so read the articles he gives you. He will even give you just to make sure you read it the night before. He's an easy A!!! No make up on the quizzes but he will drop 2 of your lowest!!!

He tells you exactly what to expect. The reviews are identical to the test and he usually goes over it before each test. Teaches you things not only about history, but about real life. Would definitely take again and again. And he's quite a jokester!!! He doesn't keep attendance but gives in class quiz and tests!

Mr Aguirre is an amazing professor. I took a class in the classroom and via the internet and I will admit that I missed his lectures. He is a man with many life experiences that relate to the course. He truly cares about his students and their success not only in his class but overall. I would definitely take his class again.
