Reviews of professor Carlos Flores

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
I wish I could take Flores for every COM class. He's simple with the work that has to be done & as long as you put in effort & show you care, he will help you. 3 essays (2-3 pgs, 5-7, and 8-10), midterm & final which are also written - 3 paragraphs. A lot of reading but they are on awesome topics that are relatable and create good convos.

Flores is a great teacher. He really knows his stuff and will make sure to explain it in class if the readings are confusing. He understands his students and tries to be relatable. There are many readings (though just skimming is good), a few activities (they are fun), 4/5 quizzes, a take home final, and two group projects. Super fun class!

Carlos is a great professor and he really does try to make the lectures bearable for his students. He gives out kind of long readings so sometimes it gets hard to follow along after a while. He gives out quizzes every 2 weeks that aren't hard if you pay attention. He does grade participation at the end of the semester so show up & engage!

Wish I had taken IRL, enjoyed the readings & hw but for a sum online course s/t due 6 out of 7 days a week. The day there wasn't s/t due you're catching up on reading/working towards final rhet criticism. Not difficult or boring, but a lot of work. Discussions sucked/were hard when nobody ever did them on time. 2x week disc, prac crit., 4 "papers"

Professor Flores is awesome & really laid back compared to other professors I've had. As long as you put in effort, show you care, & show respect, he helps where he can. We had a group project/3 essays/midterm & final that was written. I loved the topics we talked about in class, I was never bored because of the interesting conversations.

Carlos is a great teacher who explains the material. He goes over the readings and each assignment in depth to help students do well. All his activities and papers help in the end, especially with the final paper. There are a total of five papers (they all lead up to the 5th one) and some practice criticisms. It can be difficult, but he will help.

Professor Flores takes extreme care in planning his lectures. You will be expected to participate in class as there are a lot of group discussions. He is very strict about not taking late work, but is up front about it. He cares about the experience of his students

I took this course in the summer and it was organized highly well. Dr. Flores makes the course easy to follow and divides the work well throughout the weeks.
