Reviews of professor Jose Buitrago

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
Do NOT take this class if you dont have to. 4 Exams. Each 25 questions. You have zero clue what will be on the exams. He just says read the book and memorize the slides. Its close to 200 slides for each exam. No one can memorize all that. Really boring class. Terrible teaching. 0/10

The absolute worst professor I have ever had. This class should not be so hard. The man only reads the powerpoints so no reason to even show up for class. Only have 4 tests and no other grades. Each test is 25 questions and is based off of 7 chapters!! He doesnt care if you are passing or failing so dont bother asking for extra credit:)

His class is tough simply due to the weight of the tests. Fail one, and it's hard to recover. He offered extra credit to our class that saved many of our grades. Definitely get the book and study everything in it, even the captions.

This man has a lot of knowledge to teach. In a big lecture class, he might not be the best, however; in a small class size of 15 students, his teaching style was the best. He was so patient and will go through each student's work and discuss it with them individually. Also, most of the time it's a workday so you can leave at any time.

Dont enroll. He makes it so much harder than it should be. I wasted so much time trying to learn in this class just to withdraw. There are 4, 25 question tests. He gives you super broad information and tells you to memorize 175 slides and youll be just fine!��. However, when the test rolls around all the questions are specific (and in Japanese?

4 tests make up all your grade that are hard and unpredictable

if you look over the lectures beforehand you should be fine on the exam. Easy to reach professor and isn't clear what's on the exam sometimes, but he gives you everything that you need to well in in this class

Here's my take. He is a really nice guy who cares about how the entire class is doing. However most of the stuff on the test was unnecessarily random. You could expect all these chapters to be on the test, but it would only be one very specific chapter. I thought about dropping the class, but stuck with it. In the end, he did offer open note test.

Buitrago is very practical and realistic when he teaches. He does an excellent job at teaching hand graphics and has a lot of experience. Expect to spend a lot of time after class working on projects. He required 4 different books, but each of them were very useful and showed many different hand graphic techniques.
