Reviews of professor Julian Vasquez Ocoro

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Learning a new language is very challenging but this professor put in the effort and time to make it fun. There is a lot of homework but it is designed to help you really understand the material. This will not be an easy A but if you do the work on time he is a fair grader and really desires for his students to do well.

He was one of my best professors. Attendance was mandatory but if you just show up and try you will get a good grade.

While Dr. Vazquez is clearly very passionate about teaching Spanish, the level and speed at which he teaches are overwhelming. I took his online course and it became abundantly clear that he was treating this course as if it were in person. A ton of group assignments, which is hard online, and he gave absolutely no feedback whatsoever.

I took Professor Vasquez Ocoro for an independent study for Intermediate Spanish 1. He took time out of his own schedule to teach me, including meeting with me twice a week for an hour, going over the material. He will go out of his way to help and teach you, and is be far one of the best teachers I have taken. Take him. :-)

 Mr. Julian Vasquez is a great teacher. Despite what you think about him, he always gives it his all regardless of how many students are taking his class. Mr. Julian is a very understanding professor. For Instances If there is a family issues or problems that you have that prevent you from coming to class. He is willing to work something out.

Prof mainly teaches in Spanish and expects students to complete homework without learning the material in class. When students don't understand, he repeats himself but in a louder tone as if that will help, adding pressure and making things worse. He doesn't offer clarification or address questions when students struggle to understand the material.

He's ok, I didn't have as much of a problem with him as others seem to. Lots of due dates spread throughout the week. Concepts were often not very well explained before a quiz, but he was helpful in video calls.

There is a LOT of homework spread throughout the week, but it is doable with each day's homework taking no more than about an hour. The professor responds to emails within 24 hours, was available for office hours if email wasn't enough to answer a question and repeatedly told the class to let him know if they needed additional help.

Professor Ocoro was a very difficult teacher to learn from. He always talked way too fast for most of his students to understand. He conveyed information poorly, from grading to helping students learn the material. I had to take his class because he was the only one doing Spanish 2 in the summer semester and it sucked. Try to avoid this professor!
