Reviews of professor Zoot Velasco

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Professor Zoot is an excellent professor. I don't know why there are haters in this page. This is by far the most exciting career development class I've taken. It actually helped me in my professional life. Take him if you want to improve your writing and really get a chance to learn. Just participate on all the activities and you'll have fun.

I think the intense grading can be a bit offputting to some, but I appreciated how much time he put into reading and grading assignments. I feel like my writing improved significantly having taken this course. This professor isn't a "submit homework and get an A" type of professor. You'll be working your tail off. But you'll learn a lot too.

How? How? How? How is this person teaching still. It makes me question how CSUF picks teachers. He is not self aware enough to know he says offensive things in class. He wants you to be in class for everything and likes to hear himself talk.

Overall, great teacher. He's a hard grader for a reason, it really helps your writing. This isn't a class you expect an A in, even the hardest working students got B+. Doesn't give super clear feedback but he makes you WORK for the right reasons. If you wanna improve your writing I suggest him. If you wanna test your skills/improve, take him.
