Reviews of professor Gerard Robledo

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
You need 2 textbooks. You will use them. He is hard to speak to and approach. Some students day he makes them uncomfortable, I feel it too. Cancels class many times, you won't get your money's worth. Take someone else.

Took his class during the pandemic, so I'll forgive the amount of absences. However, he picks a textbook that is out of print, yet still too expensive and difficult to find. Impossible to get any positive feedback, so you're feeling around in the dark. Harder than Calc I of all things. You'll become a better writer, but you'll hate every moment.

Professor Robledo grades really tough and you must read a lot. Took him for a flex online course and he only believes his opinions even though he asks for your opinions. Be ready to write a lot and in depth. He's very specific with what he wants and doesn't give constructive criticism in the way it should be given.

I took Professor Robledo for a creative writing summer course. Two books were needed. Lots of short storys and poetry are to be read and dissected. Online course, so be prepared to create commentary on what is read and engage other classmates in posts. Decent grader, and course is deeply involved so prepare, he also has a slight political edge.

Unprofessional ,constantly canceled class, unorganized. Take a different professor, so many offer 1301 and 1302...

Just a terrible experience last semester. Even with textbook answers he still considered the answer provided wrong. Stay away!

Professor Robledo is an amazing person. I took him in '17 for creative writing and he helped me when I needed it the most. I was about to flunk the class because I gave up on myself and he helped me finish and still got a B in the end. He's incredibly caring and great to work with. Highly suggest this class! Perhaps even in person.
