I had the pleasure of taking Professor Howard's Education 130 class in the Fall 2014. This was by far one of the best classes and professors I have ever had! It was a great pleasure to have that class as my first quarter experience here at UCLA. He gives off such amazing energy and interacts with his students, making them feel a part of the class. I highly recommend taking this class or any class with Professor Howard! By far my favorite professor!

Prof. Hunter is overall a great professor who is interested in everyone learning and relating from the readings and lectures. He's very well organized with powerpoints and is very approachable in person or through email. I strongly recommend the class if you're interested in education and/or social justice and in answering curiosities about your own education experience. The midterm is not that hard but you have to prove you've been doing the reading so that's one thing you can't fall behind on.
