Comment:

His lectures are hilarious and he makes it a point to be close to his class. Be prepared for extensive homework, however, it is a grade booster if you do it. Take pre-tests seriously, he tells you what the tests are practically on. He will humble you if you aren't already. Very understanding and willing to give extensions, but don't abuse it.

Comment:

Ochoa is definitely a solid choice. His lectures are interesting, I was never bored. He taught in a way that everyone understood and was always available outside of class for extra help if needed. I would recommend taking advantage of this opportunity if you have any trouble with the homework especially before a test because he will help you.

Comment:

Easily one of the best professors I've had at TCNJ. His classes aren't overly simple but he's very fair in the way that he teaches. If he gives you study material (which he usually does) before exams, STUDY IT. Chances are, the exam will be very similar. Funny dude and great professor.

Comment:

Since I've been in his class six times now I figured I should write a review. Knows his stuff, very nice and patient, and always accessible outside of class. His lectures can be a bit boring sometimes because his voice tends to drag, but he has a good sense of humor. Work is not easy but definitely reasonable. Overall, no doubt a top choice.

Comment:

Good professor, some of the test problems are pretty hard but he grades with partial credit. Just do the work and as long as you actually do the homework and pretest problems you'll be fine. His teaching style is actually very nice as well. But there is no curve so dont expect one

Fantastic teacher. I would highly recommend him. He made the class fun and lighthearted while still teaching the material extremely well. One of the best teachers I have ever experienced.

Dr. Ochoa is one of the best professors at this school. He teaches the material very well and he makes jokes during class to keep the students awake (especially at 8:30 AM). If you have a choice I would highly recommend taking his class.

Fairly easy, a really nice guy. Labs are very short and easy. Does not make you do lab reports for ever lab which is amazing. Only one lab due per semester.
