Reviews of professor Luis Perez

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
You must read the book or you will not understand what is going on, he does not cover the topic of the class in class he rants about his life experience I do believe that this was a waste of time and money on this class.

For lecture he literally reads from the book and rarely goes over example questions. Instead he just finds someone who isn't getting it, puts them on the spot and questions them. I find his method is ineffective and doesn't make students comfortable participating. Other than that he just rants endlessly and swears the journal is the best idea ever

I'm taking IDS 3309, I'm confused by all of the good reviews. Writing assignments must be 500 words exactly or you get a letter grade deduction. I spent more time editing. The Turnitin AI detection gives misleading percentages. He takes over a week to grade these reflection papers so you won't have feedback in the 4 days mentioned in the syllabus.

Really nice and chill professor, easy to understand.

Perez is a tough grader when it comes to your notes and actual homework problems as well. Never gives out 100's when it comes to homework or notes given. Need to read the actual textbook and do all homework problems for his exams. He said class was all about the reading and actual info from the book, but the exams were mostly math problems

Very stingy with grading, took off points for my journal for highlighting. lectures are terrible, you will learn nothing unless you study on your own or with others. Wastes time with irrelevant conversation topics and has a terrible test grading system. Would avoid at all costs, also he claims this class to be more important than thermodynamics.

Terrible professor whose lectures don't add any value or knowledge to the course. Exams are the same questions from the homework so it incentivizes you to memorize the homework problems rather than learn the actual material. He also has a mandatory journal that on the syllabus requires a minimum of 70 pages.

Professor Perez reached out to the class ONCE the entire semester. Terrible teacher with absolutely horrible communication. He takes very long to grade assignments, and takes about 2-3 months to respond to your emails. I am in shock that he is qualified to teach at a university. Worst teacher I have ever had!

 From all the professors i had taken before this has been the worst professor i ever taken, just his personality itself makes the class horrible,  had a classmate first day of class who had to go early because one of his classes was far away, when he saw him packing up and leaving he threw a tantrum and told everybody that he doesn't like the kid .

Very lenient grader and lets you turn in late overall easily accessible and would take the class again
