Reviews of professor Ismael De La O

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
He does not communicate. Waited to grade everything until the end of the semester, with very little guidance & tons of reading. The main teaching theme of this class was racism. You will get severely depressed. He is a harsh grader. We needed guidance on what he wanted from us & never got it until the end. Do not take his class. He's not worth it.

I took him during the summer. He is very knowledgeable about the history of Chicanos, just do your work and you'll pass. Very respectful and wants you to pass his class. His funny and cares about his students.

Professor De la O is very unorganized. The class felt rushed and out of place. I do not recommend taking his class if you have OCD or like to know what is/will be going on in the class.

Prof de la o is a great dude. He's pretty funny and laid back. He knows his subject and the class is an easy A if you do the work. He'll help you out if you need it. Your GPA will not suffer!!

I took an online class and did everything on what the assignment was talking about. On one of the assignments, I didn't give credit because he didn't understand what I was talking about. He is asking so much and I don't understand how the class works and too much on what he is asking for. I really recommend not taking this course under him.

A decent teacher but I wouldn't take him again. Contradicts himself pretty much every class. Will help you if you're struggling. An okay guy.

Does way too much for a 3 unit course and leaves almost a whole course of grading to the last couple of days of the semester.

Hard-pass. Do not take this class in person. This is a required course for completion of a degree in CA state schools and the professors know it. First lesson is on white supremacy and lynchings, with no attempt made to tie it in to the primary subject...which is Chicano Studies. Teacher taught me Chicano culture is fundamentally racist. Good job.

Great professor, great vibe, and hilarious! Really cares about his students, there for you if you need help and very easy to talk to. Knowledgeable and shares great literature. Easy homework-reading (her provides most material) and prompts, you can easily get an A in his class, just do the work. Will definitely take another class with him.
