He is THE BEST teacher I have ever had. Instead of spoon feeding you information, he makes you debate and decide your own feelings. It is a hard class, but he will go to any lengths to help you understand, he even has a final exam study session with free pizza. He is the best!

If you take good notes and study hard there is no reason you shouldnt get an A. I recommend this class to everyone that need to take his class. He makes you think for yourself.

Professor Angulo is terrible. Everyone says he's hot and all, but only if you like stuck up pretty boys that spend more on hair spray than their mortgage. On ever test I've had for him, he'd take 2-3 points off each short answer and not tell me what I did wrong to fix it. He goes out of his way to confuse you. RUN AWAY!

Dr. Angulo's tests are easy if you are able to outline both his lectures and the text. Appropriate class participation is a must for a decent grade. I thought his lectures were interesting, but outside communication (email, etc) was never responded too. Overall, a good teacher, but he kind of looks like a brunette Zach Morris off Saved by the Bell.

You have to work to get an A in his class, he doesn't just hand out good grades. I think that is why a lot of people do not like him.

Dr. Angulo is an interesting professor. I feel like I've learned more from him than I have any professor at Winthrop thus far. I know that I will use what I learned in his class in my future career as a teacher. You have to work really hard in his class and read the textbook. His tests definitely are not easy though. Overall, great guy.

He is very intelligent and knows what he's talking about, but he plays "Devil's Advocate" and you may never know what he wants from you other than to create your own opinion and know more or less everything. Don't bring a laptop, and READ THE TEXT! Good luck though, it's some thick reading.

Professor Angulo is a hard teacher, as far as tests go, but he prepares you well for them. He doesn't lecture from the book, so you have to read that on your own time. He makes class interesting; even the history portion of it. Attendance is not mandatory but come anyway. He keeps me awake at 9:30 in the morning, and that's saying something. :)

Hardest teacher EVER. I hear about other HMXP classes watching movies...we don't do that.

Cramming is key for his tests. Participate in class (it counts for a lot, even if he doesn't tell you that). Very smart man, but he's extra full of himself and pays no attention to professionalism of being an educator. He rarely responds to emails, and he takes no regard for wu grading policies.

His syllabus is useless, when you go to his office to ask for clarification on what the syllabus says he simply replies with "Look at the syllabus."
