Has bad time management skills, the whole Javier takes his time with a bunch of unnecessary abstract exerices and when it comes time for the final project he rushes you, while changing your design and whole project a week before the finals. not clear in direction and guidelines. will often have favorites and spent a lot of time helping them.

Javier is an abstract teacher. He won't coddle you or give you a step by step schedule. He pushes his students to stretch themselves. His goal is usually to get you to a place where your work is better than it was previously and he explains that at the beginning of the quarter. Don't take him if you need hand-holding. Take him if you want to grow.

Second quarter in a row taking his class and he is great! Vey brutally honest but wants the best outcome for you. He does so much more than give feedback, he helps you think creatively and pushes you beyond your comfort zone. Make sure to give this professor a chance, he's very abstract and different from other studio instructors at Bellevue! A++++

He knows what he is doing and youll leave with better knowledge of the industry. he isnt wasting time sugar coating feedback. If you feel hurt easily during critiques this isnt the guy for you. He pushes you and can almost be rude in his delivery. I personally loved his class but he also was into the work I was turning out. Polarizing prof.

I would recommend not reading these reviews and just taking the class with Javier to see how great of an instructor he is. He makes you think outside the box, be creative, and think logically. He has been one of my favorite teachers at BC so far- just make sure that you are passionate about your project, present quality work, and you'll be fine!

He is very disorganized and doesn't know how to teach a class. His due dates changed all the time and he was never clear about what he wanted for the assignments so everyone in the class was on a different page. He graded the final project based on comparing other people's works to yours and what he likes instead of seeing your design.
