Reviews of professor Kevin Valenzuela

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Had him for Kin 201 and unfortunately had to take him again since he's the only prof for 300. The whole class is you watching prerecorded lectures at home and then going into your in-person 50 min class once a week just to have him restate the same things you already taught yourself asych. Unapproachable prof and the class structure isn't ideal.

Be warned this class can be difficult if you do not put the effort in. He gives no extra credit or rounding and if you miss an assignment oh well thats on you. It took me forever to do the lab reports because the TAs would grade them very strictly.

I took this prof for KIN 300 and got an A despite it being difficult. Here (KIN 441), he MAKES the course difficult.
A LOTTTT of group work - the group paper holds a lot of weight and the project. Very hard grader (no one got an A in the papers/projects), and he's hard to approach without making you feel stupid. Hard material, harder prof.

I received an A in the class but I personally didn't think he was a good professor. He doesn't teach and expects you to know the materials by yourself. I re-did my hws, final reviews, quiz and lecture3+. Don't forget to go over the labs; it sometimes shows up in the exam.
If you don't know your basic math or physics, know that you'll be struggling

Not a good lecturer and is very hard to follow, had to teach a lot of this to myself. On top of that when you ask questions he tries to be intimidating instead of just answering your question, which is not only unhelpful but also hilarious because he is just not intimidating whatsoever. Also will not hear you out no matter what on late assignments.

Does not give ec, does not round, and won't even let people take the final early so if you have plans with family then too bad. Awful lecturer. 50 min class once a week is him yapping with no solid notes, just gifs and pictures. TA's don't know what's going on, no doubt because of him. Lecture exam is worth 150 points in total but is 25 q's each.
