Chill and funny dude. Explained the material fully and would definitely take again!

Professor Pulido-Velasquez is probably the best professor I've had at GVSU. He uses the full class period to lecture and goes over the homework that is required to be turned in by the end of the week. Has an accent, but not super hard to understand. He takes pride in knowing his students understand what he's saying. Would take him over any prof!!

If you just go to lectures and follow along while he does notes you should be fine. Theres just weekly online homework that goes along with the lesson and then the exams which arent too hard because you get a cheat sheet.

A really good prof. He lectures and goes over the assignments due weekly so worth it to attend class. Exams aren't lockdown which was a plus. He knows what he is talking about and is very helpful. He gives helpful real-life examples. I definitely recommend him to anyone. He does have an accent, but it is easy to understand. TAKE HIM!!!

Did not like Professor Manuel AT ALL! Super hard grader and had so many assignments during the week. I needed to get a tutor. Not to mention you can't understand his accent well. Take a better Prof. for this difficult class...

He's a great guy and understanding of your situation. I learned a lot and he would help if had questions. The only thing I didn't like was we had to do tedious modules online and they were fairly time-consuming. Other than that I would definitely recommend him; he is very fair.

Manuel was one of the best professors I have ever had. He is very smart (PhD holder and Fulbright scholar) and knows a lot with out having the air of pretentiousness about him that some professors have. He genuinely cares about his students and is very accessible.

He is fresh out of PHD school and has a slight accent but the guy is funny, engaging, and cares about his students and wants everyone to do good. Most importantly he is a fair grader and makes sure that he doesn't swamp his students with work. Take this prof if you can

He assigns a lot of homework each week. There are a few quizzes and two exams, but these are not worth a lot of points. He drags his lectures on really long. He drops your lowest quiz and replaces it with your average score of in class activities. Overall he is very lenient

Good teacher who I respected while I was a student. I learned more from his course than I do from others. Easy to work with.

Maunel is very nice and understanding professor. He doesnt require attendance at all. Everything is easy and accessible in his class and he has a very good layout for the class. Highly recommend him.
