Reviews of professor Javier Garcia

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
this was for the previous semester. if your currently enrolled in communications at CCNY you will unfortunately have to encounter this professor. Be prepared for no email responses for a few days, extremely harsh grading techniques, and 0 ramose or empathy. He also tends to have a creepy smile during his lectures. good luck

Probably the worst professor I ever had throughout my whole time at CCNY. Not a single lecture was given, I basically paid for this class, just to watch YouTube videos. At that point I could've stayed home and learned the material on my own. Doesn't reply to emails and if he does it will be DAYS later. Steer clear, you WILL regret taking his class.

I had this professor twice and found his class interesting and Informative both times. He always answered my emails and even looked over my resume for me. Class is not too hard and he gives good feedback if you ask for it.

He was truly an amazing professor and mentor. Will never have another quite like him.

This class is lecture heavy and slides are not provided. He is not an easy grader but is lenient and allows re-submission of papers for a better grade. Midterm was writing heavy and long. He brings real world experience to the classroom and gives good feedback. Take this class if you want to learn something and be prepared to work.

Professor Garcia isn't a bad professor but he does give a lot of work that is graded pretty heavy. I wouldn't mind taking him again. For the midterm, you're going to have to study on your own and make your own review sheet but its not that bad since most professor don't even provide one for you lectures aren't boring and he's a good guy.

Lectures can be a bit robotic but if you take simple notes you're fine, compared to many of the other reviews he's seemed to soften up a bit. The only thing that was off was the group project assigned before thanksgiving break (almost out of nowhere) that we didn't have to present, but then he gave us another one after thanksgiving that felt rushed

Honors 150 is a very difficult class, but Javier Garcia helps all freshmen with their transition into the program and into the school. He knows his stuff and will make you work for your grades, but he also can lighten the mood of seminar and make everyone smile. He is very good with the books of the Bible and anything philosophical.

Although he is very knowledgeable, it is shadowed by his hubris, smug demander. His fault lies within his ability to be an advocate for his students. During harsh times a little compassion goes a long way. However if you do your work, show up and participate you will receive what you put in... Hopefully.
