I took his Filipino Experience 133 class. He is very professional and a very easy grader. I turned in many assignments that I thought I did not do too well on but he always gave a better grade than I deserved. His format of the class is very easy. He makes you appreciate Filipinos and their history. TAKE HIM YOU WILL ENJOY IT AND AS LONG AS YOU SHOW UP and do the work YOU'LL GET AN A!!

I guess I had very high expectations for the class. The class was structured as following: pop quizzes (we had five throughout the quarter); one timeline project; a Filipino Experience in Los Angeles project; an in-class presentation; and an in-class final. Overall, the class is relatively easy, but you do have to do some work and it consumes time. The professor is a good person, but her teaching methods are not quite effective. The class was disorganized and very hard to follow along. It becomes tedious to go to class as the quarter progresses. I guess that if you like ethnic studies classes, you ought to enjoy the classes. Not my particular interest.
