Reviews of professor Ivan Castaneda

Rating: 2.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
DO NOT TAKE THIS PROFESSOR. He grades the toughest and is not a good professor. If you do not want a C or fail this course DO NOT TAKE HIS CLASS PLEASE. I regretted not dropping the class.

Just started college and this was one of my first classes. Not reasonable at all and does not care for students. I dont know how I ended up with such a bad professor. I barely passed this class and asked many times to improve grade and he refused to help in anyway. Such a tough grader and his instructions change and not always clear.

Do not take a course with this professor unless you are ready to fail. This was the 8th or 9th class I have taken at UMGC and was the most demanding professor I have ever seen. The discussion post requirements are all over the place and the feedback he gives is copy and paste. 

STAY AWAY

I would highly recommend finding another teacher. He does not grade in a timely manner or provide adequate feedback.

My experience with Professor Castaneda has been, put simply, awful. I enjoy that he is a tough grader, but a lot of his feedback comes off as rude and belittling.

This Professor is rude whenever he replies to discussion. He expects you to critique every reading material and address the issues and everything else for all in your discussion posts. He even comment on your replies to students with words that would make you want to tell him off. He cares zero for students. Would never take this professor again.

HORRIBLE instructor Ive ever had. Ive never had any issues with previous classes taken at UMUC until I took this class. I withdrew from this class because I literally felt like I wasnt learned a thing. Ive never had a class where the instructor states that you must Interrogate another classmates discussion response. DO NOT TAKE HIS CLASS!
