Nice person. He does get frustrated sometimes but that was because a lot of people did not read in my class. Just read. He gives quizzes on readings. The grading for papers is fair. He tells you what he wants. Do what he says and you get at least a B. He cares about students. He will never say no to help. My writing has improved a lot with his help

I was getting all low Bs in 101 and got an A on almost every paper with him in 102. Here is how I got an A: I scheduled appointments with him. In those appointments you get more help than you do in class (obviously) and you get more of your draft read. He tells you exactly what to change and even give tips for how to change it. GO TO HIM!

Best professor EVER! There are 8 essays (department rules, not his) but he spaces them out a lot. He offers a lot of extra help in conferences. They are VERY helpful and you should definitely go to them. He is also really young and relatable. He understands what we are going through and is really funny. Getting an A is possible with hard work.

He understands if you're going through mental health issues and gives extensions if you just ask. He's so caring and wants everyone to do well. He gives amazing feedback on all essays to help you improve. Take him!

TAKE HIM. Seriously Professor Basualdo is the best. He is lenient but you got to show your trying. Super nice!

I took this class two years ago. He is really smart and cool. The hardest part is the rubric that he is forced to follow. He is a bit more generous than you think. Got straight Bs with him but then went to 102 and got a C. Appreciate him looking at your draft. Other professors dont even do that. I recommend him. Easy pass if you show you care

He makes class fun and you can tell he cares. Gets upset when people do not read and checks who does by giving quizzes. Just read and participate every now and then. If you are trying, he will help you. Dedicates a lot of his free time to helping students. If you go to him for help, you should have no problem getting at least a B.

He is probably the smartest and sweetest person I have ever learned from. He wants to see people do well. He even gives out structure guides for each paper and will sit down with you and help you follow it during office hours (offers a lot of help times). I started with Cs but went to him and started getting As. I would take him again.
