Reviews of professor Jose Alfaro

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
I like how he grades essays, gives good feedback. A lot of the reading material touches on controversial and sensitive topics which I personally liked. I dislike academic reading but the reading material in this class was interesting. As long as you do all the assignments you'll be fine.

AMAZING GUY. Doesn't throw work at you all at once. Helps you develop your own writing voice. Gives LOADSSS of feedback. He's also a student so he understands and doesn't overwhelm you. Talked about race/lgbtq/identity. Read one book. Had one big paper that you started building since the beginning of the course. 10/10 would take again.

Truly the best professor I have ever had. He is so kind and understanding, you can just tell he cares for his students. He also gives great feedback on every assignment and the readings assigned changed my life. That's coming from someone who HATES academic readings. Easy class because of how much I enjoyed it.

Amazing professor. Really allows you to be creative and express a different side of your writing. He knows what matters to his students and isn't afraid to address controversial subjects. Workload isn't extremely heavy, just keep up with assigned reading and writing assignments. Participate as much as you can!

I loved this course. Professor Alfaro was very caring and anyone can tell he cared for his students by his emails. Sometimes he didn't assign anything for a week for us to catch up on our mental health. He gives great feedback on your assignments. Overall, great and inspiring professor. I would take him again and again. 10/10.
