Reviews of professor Richard Armenta

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 1.0/5
So caring and approachable. He is so knowledgeable and will help his students with anything they need. He went above and beyond in his class and made the material fun. One of the nicest people both in the class and outside!

I really liked this class as an introduction to public health. He gets a bit distracted and carried away during lectures but overall I liked his teaching style. The only downside of this class was that he doesn't grade anything in a timely manner nor did he give any feedback. All of the slides/ lectures provide everything you need, no textbook.

Dr. Armenta is hands down my favorite prof. He's so passionate about epidemiology and public health and truly cares about each and every student's success. I can go on and on about how incredible he is. About the course, make sure you study for the exams and participate in class! He will greatly appreciate it :)

Professor Armenta is my favorite professor by far!  He is caring and passionate about public health and is always available for extra help.  His lectures are great and he provides the right materials to do well on exams.  2 exams, 1 project, and 5 homework assignments. 10/10 professor!

Hes an easy teacher for statistics. If you show up and understand the lectures, which are really easy, then you'll pass the class with a B or A. There is no reason to fail since he is able to help you. Lectures are a drag but He is a quirky person and tries to make the lectures better. Attendance isn't mandatory but you will be loss in class is mis

He is a great professor, and he wants all of his students to pass and understand the concepts of the course material. If you do not understand the homework, then he is always available during office hours. He's also very funny and tries to make the class fun, even if the subject matter is boring.

By far the best professor I've had at CSUSM. He truly cares about his students and he's super understanding. He gives so many examples and is happy to go over anything you don't understand. There's homework but plenty of time to do it and he also provides study guides that actually help with the test. Do your part and you'll pass.

This teacher was awful. He is very interested in promoting CRT and sociology instead of epidemiological practices. He boasts of his own sexuality and work in distribution of illegal drugs to illegal immigrants in class and masks it as part of epidemiology. Lectures are sprinkled with epidemiology but centered on CRT fluff. Avoid, or take online.

I'm currently taking one of Dr. Armenta's classes in COVID online, which with other prof's have been unorganized challenging settings for learning- however he is the total opposite. So available for guidance about class problems /your future, & very straight forward with what he expects and you'll be graded on. I'd take him again no questions asked
