Reviews of professor Derrick Ortega

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 1.0/5
Ortega is amazing! Whether you're a creative writing or English major or just looking to fill a GE, I highly recommend taking his class. All you have to do is show up and write, and he only asks for a few assignments to be turned in. As long as you turn in everything, you'll get an A. He is also great about communicating and offering extra credit.

I was super nervous to take this class because I would not consider myself a great writer. The only reason I took this class was because I needed to fulfill my art GE. He posts recorded lectures but I never watched them. Just do all the assignments on time and you will get an A in the class. I definitely would recommend.

I loved taking Professor Ortega's class this semester as all the writing was really open and he made all the assignments very clear. Professor Ortega is a very kind and flexible teacher who shows a genuine interest and care into the work and success of his students. I would highly recommend taking his class!

Professor Ortega is THE BEST! he's so kind and very helpful. His class is just the right amount of work and reading where you feel like you're learning something, but it's not too much that it burdens you. I would for sure take him when you get the chance!

Dr. Ortega was spectacular. Going in as a freshman creative writing major, I was so excited for my first creative writing class, but also nervous that the course would scare me out of it. Learned a lot in this class from his lectures and he is easily accessible outside of class. Would gladly take a class with him again.
