Horrible experience- had an online class with him, his lectures are SO long and it seems as if its material from a long time ago. It's all in videos and there are hard quizzes that go with it. Do not recommend his class, it is hard and very boring.

Comment:
The content of the class was extremely organized. I think that the class could have been a great one, but he records his lectures, so no time to discuss with him or other students. I wish the class was more Socratic. The quizzes were confusing. He gives almost no feedback even on big projects.

Not there to help you! If you want to challenge yourself, go for it, otherwise stay away from him. He makes mistakes in his assignments, and instead of resolving, he confuses you! Assignments make no sense.

attendance is not mandatory. His class is really difficult, but really fun, you have to right a 13 pg paper (counts as your final). I'm a spanish native speaker and some of his stuff was hard for me to understand. You practically have to memorize all the information of his lectures & the material he puts up on blackboard learn.

very funny, likes it when you ask questions to help with class discussion... I don't agree with the people who say that he's annoying... takes time to work with you on assignments and offers helpful insights to improve your work. AWESOME professor.

The class is not too bad, it's just the professor. It's best to be a native speaker & have a good memory. There's minimal assignments, but recommended outside reading. Don't take this class unless you have plenty of spare time or take it with another prof. Don't make him mad cuz he'll get mad at the whole class. He also play favors.

His class isn't necessarily hard, but you have to dedicate a good a mount of time to studying. Trying to cram for a test the night before doesn't work. The tests are kinda hard, especially if you cram, and he leaves out a lot of things that he says will be on it. I dont think he speaks any English, but his Spanish is very clear and comprehendible.

Difficult unless you’re a native speaker. A little snooty. Decent professor though. I recommend.

The class is not "easy" in the sense that most are looking for. If you're good at remembering symbols [or at least take the time to STUDY them] you will do well in his course. He is willing to assist after class [try not to repeat ?s DURING, tho. It annoys him when he can't move the class along]

Comment:
I wouldn't suggest this professor unless you're a native speaker. There were originally over 40 students in the class. All dropped but ten native speakers. The professor is nice but this class was more like an oral speech class.
