Reviews of professor Arturo Villalobos

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Villalobos is a really sweet sincere guy, and he really believes in his student ability to do well. Very willing to answer student questions. A lot of people do have trouble understanding him, if you review the powerpoints before class it is easier to keep up. He mainly uses short essay questions, but grades them very leniently.

He really cares for his students and encourages us a lot. He gives us pep talks at the end of most of our lectures. He gives quite a few quizzes between tests in order to keep us on our toes with studying. However, his grading is very fair. Definitely take him for any class you are able to, everyone loves him. Also he responds to emails very well

Dr. Villalobos is a real gem in the biology department. Sure, his test is quite difficult and demand you to understand the material, but he's pretty gracious with his grading and will give you points if he sees that you're trying. His accent is very hard to listen to but you'll get used to it

Dr. Villalobos has to be the most amazing professor I have ever taken. He will answer your questions even outside of his office hours. He's a professor who actually cares about your education and your understanding the concept, willing to re-explain it to you anytime. His expertise and interest in the concepts he's teaching make the class enjoyable

Very difficult tests and subpar lecturing. He is very accessible after class and often offers extra credit for in class participation. You will have to read your textbook if you want a good grade.

Very difficult lecture material, however, Villalobos provides study questions that often reappear on quizzes and exams. If you prepare all of these questions, you will be fine. Attendance is not mandatory although he will often give in-class assignments which you cannot make up. He also gives a LOT of extra credit during lectures.

Cares about all of his students and works hard to make sure everyone can understand the material. He's willing to meet after class if you need extra help. Great lectures and provides good study guides so you are prepared for tests and quizzes.

Dr. Villalobos was very knowledgeable and demands that students understand the content. While it was difficult during the semester, I gained a thorough understanding and appreciate his passion in the field of biology.
