Reviews of professor Reynaldo Tapia

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Gangs and transnationalism, ok so this class has 3 books, and every week you have to read a chapter and complete a chapter quiz but all of the quizzes are helpful for the final exam (same questions). He is very responsive and checks on you to make sure you are completing the tasks and will accept late work. I'm taking him now for Migration & Crime.

WORST CLASS EVER! Regardless of how disciplined you are, if you work full time, are a full-time student, and also have a family, I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS CLASS! Alot of reading, 2 DB,plus a review quiz every week. IF YOU TAKE THIS CLASS, BE PREPARED TO BE EASILY BURNT OUT BEFORE THE MIDDLE OF THE SEMESTER.THE PROFESSOR DOES NOT CARE OF THE WORKLOAD.

The Class I taught me was Sociology 101 in the spring of 2022. I'd put that since it isn't an option on the site yet. Heads up since this class demands a lot of work to be done. You will be expected to write an essay every other week and take an exam every week. None of the assignments are hard, but it is a lot, especially for upcoming freshmen.

Very chilled professor. Doesn't get any better. Accepts late work. But take the online course if you want to get that A.

The course is very interesting with engaging discussions. Dr. Tapia responds very quickly and gives good feedback. He assigns one chapter a week from the book and is also willing to work with you and give extensions on homework. There is no midterm, 2 papers, and a final exam.

This professor is asking way too much!!!! Be prepared to do a huge amount of work each week (including during break). You are going to read and write a LOT. Every week there are two or three DB plus open questions exams (12 questions with 2 or 3 subquestions each). He assigns 3 heavy textbooks and a lot of videos/documentaries to watch.

The course load is a lot. 3 weekly assignments, discussion board, and written response quizzes. All exams are written responses. Exams and papers for midterm and final. Overall understanding and reasonable grader. Responds to email in a timely manner.
