As a 2003 graduate I still remember Dr. Garcia's lectures, insights, and inspiration. He is a gifted teacher and I told him so. :) I hope to continue carrying the torch and being a lighthouse to others. Thank you Dr. Garcia!! Well done.

Comment:
Dr. Garcia is a phenomenal lecturer. I have never been more inspired by a professor in my graduate career (ever actually) than Dr. Garcia. He can make a four hour lecture entertaining and that is hard to find. I cannot say enough good things about him. His tests are difficult, but he gives you a week to take them - they are manageable for sure.

Comment:
Dr. Garcia is fun to listen to, but in the four classes I've taken with him, I feel completely unprepared to tackle the topics on the CPCE. He does not follow the syllabus, and his tests are ill prepared and don't cover what he teaches in class or what will be needed in future classes. Very disorganized.

Comment:
Did not include the reading in lecture, but were tested on extensively on reading. Nonlinear lecture style, but very entertaining. Very approachable. Only two tests for the whole semester, which were VERY difficult. No grades outside of those.

Comment:
Had Dr. Garcia for multiple courses in grad school. Tremendous knowledge with application to make you a better therapist/counselor. Very entertaining lectures...worth the price of admission. Take notes for when you review them later, a lot begins to make sense. Outstanding use of film and books, both historical and current.

Comment:
He is a great teacher with a wide array of knowledge. He does not teach a lot from the book, but his tests will include book questions, along with questions from the lectures. You need to know both the book and lectures very well.

Garcia is very nice, but too philosophcal in many ways, he didn't focus on info that was applicable to real counseling settings.

Great class. Dr. Garcia is hilarious and very knowledgeable...but his tests are SUPER difficult. There is way too much information on one test, but his projects are cool and class discussions were fun.
