Reviews of professor Ronald Martinez

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
I took this professor in Winter2020 I suck at math but to be honest his lectures were super easy pay attention, take notes, and do your homework. What I liked about this prof although he made you work for your grade he gave feedback on your mistakes. Exams are based from your homework so again prioritize it! You'll be fine just don't be lazy.

If you're looking for a easy breezy, homework free class than I would take someone else. If you're actually trying to learn the subject and move into higher math classes than I would recommend him. Yes, he assigns a LOT of homework, but it helps prepare you for his tests and quizzes. He encourages students to ask questions and go to office hours.

Why everyone is not happy, I think professor Martinez give us a great opportunity to lean Math in other dimension skinsHw is basic to learn and grade good in quizzes.

Makes you feel like his math class is your major. When the math class is just a pre-requisite. Also, he gives you a lot of homework as if it's the only class your taking. So, be prepared to do a lot of hw and have time to do the hw. His a though grader and takes points away for little mistakes on the exam. No study guide.

Teaching style is difficult to keep up with. If you have trouble with math, I would recommend taking another instructor. Homework helps only if you understand the concept but if you dont it will be though.

Amazing professor and has very clear lectures, he's genuine with his teaching and wants his students to succeed. However, he does assign lots of homework and you will fail the class if you don't do his homework since it's also tied in with the quizzes and tests.

Professor Martinez does give a lot of homework but it's for a purpose. He truly cares about students' learning and he's willing to help you if you go to his office hours.

In face to face classes, he was a cool professor, good lectures but he gives a lot of graded homework. But after switching to online, he did not give any lectures at all, only like 4-5 sets of HW every week which sucks if you struggle in math because you will have to learn everything on your own. Did not even give answer keys for tests/quizzes.

He's an alright teacher. He gets the job done. But the pressure of homework is very difficult. Also you don't get partial credit for homework. Homework is basically all or nothing (he grades random problems). Was also difficult to work with if you have accommodations. He gave me a hard time when I would take exams in the special services center.
