Reviews of professor Efren Velazquez

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
Worst professor I've had in a long time.

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Very very difficult class, but that's the nature of the course regardless of who teaches it. He's a hilarious person and makes a hard class enjoyable to go to. Do the homework, don't miss class, read every chapter of the textbook, and rework the homework problems with friends (he posts a key after they're graded) before exams. Very glad I took him.

Dr. V is a great prof, exams are hard but the homework packets prepare you for what you might see on the exam. Do good on the lab assignments pay attention and study to do well in the course. He is very funny and is very accessible he cares about his students. The course is hard in itself so the bad reviews are just complaining about the content.

Dr.Velazquez was an amazing professor. He sets clear guidelines for completing the homework and the tests are not too difficult (if you complete the study guide he provides). Lectures were very entertaining and he taught in a very accessible manner. I would gladly take another one of his classes.

Dr. Vs is chill and he likes to joke around a lot. He is a hard grader and his exams are hard, but his lab assignments prepare you for them. The reason he has poor ratings is that students who do not study or show up for class end up failing. Study every day, don't miss class, and talk to him. Also, the content is just hard, so keep that in mind.

Dr. V is very passionate about what he teaches. This class requires reading the textbook in order to complete assignments and do well on quizzes/tests. There are whole class and group discussions/activities. Very strict deadlines, but gives plenty of time to complete assignments.

I was terrified of this class because of what I heard about Dr. V. You can NOT miss class & expect to make a good grade. You have to STUDY. He is strict about late assignments, but he lets you work with other students & the homework packets are really helpful for tests. Your anxiety will be at an all-time high. Difficult, but not impossible.

Avoid him for 3070K. He grades people differently

DO NOT TAKE HIM. great for other classes, terrible for 3070k. He acts like this class is our major.  It's not a difficult class, he makes it difficult.  I truly hope that someone can teach him how to interact with students properly and teach to others advantages rather than scaring them into dropping.

The only reason he has a decent rating is because of the websites guidelines. Would avoid at all cost if you want to keep a decent GPA.

participate in class & talk about your experiences, & do the work on D2L & you'll be fine. There are multiple writing assignments, open note quizzes, a novel to read, & Packbacks.
