Reviews of professor Francisco Vieyra

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
I recommend this class as an easier upper level SOC. The exams are so straight forward. The lectures are interesting. He is a very lenient grader and he provides very clear instructions for his assignments. Its easy to get away with not doing the readings because he does a great job in explaining them in his powerpoint. He offers lots of EC points

I can't say enough good things about Professor Vieyra. I needed some extra help throughout the semester as I was having a lot of demands outside of school and he worked with me every step of the way. So caring and empathetic. Interesting lectures and a really smart guy. One of the few who really truly cares and wants the best for his students.

Great professor. He is very helpful and understanding. class consists of 2 reading responses and 4 exams with the lowest grade being dropped. Exams are multiple choice and he posts a study guide online a week before the exam. The exams do require a bit of studying but are not hard to pass. He also offers extra credit opportunities. Highly recommend

Great professor! I have taken ASOC 373 and 282, they're both set up the exact same. Attendance randomly, 4 exams (lowest dropped), 2 reading responses (1-2 pgs), and opportunity for up to 15 points ec on exam grade. Lectures can be a little boring if you're not super into the topic, but he's a good guy. He gives hints in class on exam questions ans

Very good professor. He does assign a lot of reading but they're actually quality pieces that contribute to the content of the course and provide great insight. Lectures are a bit dull but exams are very straightforward. Attendance is just another way to earn extra points. I've taken two of his classes and would happily take more.
