he is the worst teacher i ever had

he is very arrogant and gets irritated when you don't understand something the first time around (which is almost impossible to do because of his accent)he is very unclear in his lectures and gets off subject alot.

i had to drop this class. don't take this class don't make the same mistake i did.

He is the worst! Hard to understand and only wants to talk about cell phone bills and the movie the Matrix. Doesn't like you to ask questions. Probably one of the worst teachers, though the teachers at HCC seem to be getting pretty bad....

Knows his math, but sure doesnt know how to teach it.

This teacher is awful. He is too inteligent to teach and is very rude. would not recommend this guy at all, unless your an algebra wiz or can teach yourself.

He's a pretty crappy teacher... u cant understand what the hell he is talkin bout Half the time because of his accent and then he does not answer any questions at all... All he talks bout is everyone bein lazy cause we use calculators and bla bla bla...

SUCKS! He he is hard to understand! DO NOT TAKE HIM. SHOULD NOT BE TEACHING! talks about xoxoxoxo and stupid crap like that. Total lamebrain.

blows questions off

I liked math before this class. He doesnt give a 2nd chance like drop lowest grade. Only way to pass the class is just study the book no need to go to class. I would not recommend this class to anyone. Take Totten or Soash for math.

This class only allows you FOUR grades. 3 tests and the final! So, if you fail one, chance for you to pass is hard. He offers NO extra credit and when you tell him you don't understand, his response is "that is not my problem".. what teacher says that!? Take grieco. I heard she is really good.

This teacher is impossible. Even people who are very good at math had trouble in this class... I ended up having to drop it because I was doing so badly. He obviously loves math but he's not very good at teaching it. He comes off as very rude and uncaring.

He is an idiot all he talks about is technology in Europe and cell phones he also never fails to mention that when you have a problem is because your lazy refers to you as "you people" very rude. He also has a michael jackson nose!!

VERY unhelpful. always says the same things over and over again that have nothing to do with anything! "that's math, you know?" i had to drop the class because i didn't learn a damn thing! take simon ramos, he was much better and will help you.

Is too hard to understand. Doesn't really explain the material and when you ask a question he says "that's voodoo." I learned more in one day with Ramos as a sub then him the whole semester.

This teacher is horrible. I always have trouble in math but this guy is ridiculous. I could not understand him. He always talks about Big Brother and how we may use this math to prove that people are cheating us outta money but he doesnt explain anything. DONT TAKE THIS PROFESSOR!

Wow...I agree w everyone else said...Do not take Romero or Fox are both very good.

THIS GUY SUCKS!!! I did not listento the warnings!! I SHOULD HAVE!! IF YOU ARE SMART YOU WOULD NOT TAKE THIS TEACHER!!!

One word.......HORRIBLE!!!!!!!!!!!

please dont waste your money as i and others shown here have

Unless you are a masochist, you do not want to take this class. He is difficult, uncaring, and pompous. The tests were impossible and he wouldn't explain anything during class.

This guy treats his students like morons and tries to impart his conspiracy theories to his students. When you really need help, he makes you feel like a retarded child and will not admit he is wrong. I saw him make a bright "a" student cry in frustration. DO NOT TAKE HIS CLASS unless you want to throw your money away!!!

Please listen to these warnings! I had to drop out of this class because i wasnt learning anything. All he talks about is time travel and smellovision and then calls you stupid when you ask for help. Someone should report him to the dean!

Do not take his class not helpful at all. I had to drop his class because i knew i was gonna fail. there was no hope. Don't go step by step with you on problems. His test are absurb.

Avoid this Professor, he is very nice but does not teacher at all. Expects you to know everything from previous classes, if that was the case then why take the class. Only talks about what you people don't do or like to study math and numbers. You people refers to Americans I assume.

//!!WARNING!!// Avoid Urrechaga like the PLAGUE!!! He is a detrement to learning!! He is NUTS!! LOONY!! If you stick around him long enough you'll be loony too!

this guy is insane. he's seriously out of control. i thought he was just a geek at first, and i loved to listen to his crazy ramblings about time-travel but then! when we needed his help all he did was tell us how dumb we were. plus, the grade you get is based Only on 4 tests, that's it. so i dropped the class after i got a 50 on the 1st test. meh

this guys an idiot. do not take his class. talks more about how other cultures can count better than he does teach. DO NOT REGISTER FOR NE OF HIS CLASSES>

This is the worst teach I have ever had in my whole entire life!!! He is horrible and can not teach at all! Teaches as if everyone in the class has a Ph. D in mathematics.... Our class started out full and ended with less than 10 students. This class will ruin you grade, stay away at all cost!!!!

This guy is a ****ing idiot. He needs to retire! What a idiot idiot! I can't say it enough! If you don't want a teacher who is going to talk about other cultures instead of math, Don't take his ****ing class! PLEASE! I BEG OF YOU!!!

This teacher SUCKS!!! He spends too much time telling you what you might need this stuff for, instead of teaching it to you.

Albert has said on a number of occasions that american students are "stupid" and don't want to work for a degree. If I didn't want to work for my degree i wouldn't be enrolled in college. Albert is very unhelpful, rude, and very unclear when he lectures. I recommend that when considering classes pick another mathmatics professor.

This teacher cannot teach period. If you got stuck in his class then get ready to do a lot of at home studying because he doesn't teach in class and tells you useless info. don't waste your time get out while you still can. i had 35 ppl in the class ended up with 8 very very hard teacher..He is somewhat interesting but still can't teach well at all

One word: HORRIBLE!!!

GET OUT WHILE YOU CAN! He is a horrible teacher.

Yall this teacher sucks so bad... he doesnt speak clearly and cant write for ****... he is always talking about some foreign countries and how we will be able to time travel in the future... do not take his class.. im seriously thinking about dropping it... just take my word for it... dont take him...

DEAR GOD!!! DO NOT TAKE THIS PROFESSOR. He assumes you already know the information and scorns anyone who asks questions. He babbles about computer viruses, radar technology, and time travel. He's a complete loon. If you already know the information, by all means... if you are trying to LEARN anything, take someone else's class, I beg you.*DROPPED*

DO NOT TAKE THIS TEACHER! He is horrible. Its like he is speaking german the whole time. All he talks about is how great Europe is and that he believes in aliens.

Please be wise everyone. Listen to these peoples comments. DO NOT TAKE THIS PROFESSOR!!! For god sake i have never had a worse teacher in my life. Thats a promise.

Do not take his class. He is a very smart man but he is crazy. He talks about aliens, time travel, espionage, and how great europe is. oh and let not forget Americans are stupid to him. He also does not like graphing calculators. Hard to approach. Enough Said.

The worst math teacher at HCC... I'm serious. Check the ratings on here and try to find someone worse!! He has a strong accent and is difficult to understand. Not good when you dont already know the materail... Who does?? Find someone else. There are lots of really great teachers to choose from, he's just not one of them.

I am not strong in math and found his class very hard to understand. His way of teaching the subject was not helpful. I am sure HE knows the information but as far as breaking it down to teach it, I felt he did not do this well. Those who were already strong in math did better.

Brilliant matemathician, terrible teacher. If you had a hard time with intermidiate algebra,dont you dare taking this class with him!His teaching is complicated.He easily goes out of subject (Walmart,Satellites)and kills your concentration, understanding and patience. Take the class if you're a self-taught student, who can read the book and learn.

He should not be teaching

This is probably the worst teacher i have ever had. I have never dropped a class until i signed up for his. He would always go off of subject and speak about dna being in credit cards....etc.The only thing i was to do was sleep. One day he announced "the last day to drop the class is today" and i think there were only 2 ppl that stayed.

very,very hard..he doesn't even teach you because he just wants to get through it. Even if you're paying for your class, he doesn't care.

if you feel like wasting money on a class. take this guy, you will end up dropping it anyway, guarantee. this teacher has no business teaching, you think he'd figure that out after 100 years but he hasn't. he's nuts.

DO NOT TAKE HIS CLASS. U basically have to learn everything on your own. He teaches his own techniques, none of which you can study at home. He speaks broken english and rambles about how students are all spoiled. I hate his class and only wish i could write more. 90% of my class is failing and all have the same complaint. He is to retire by admin

Eh... He seems like hes an ok guy but he is very strict on tests. Harsh grader. But he means well and wants you to learn what he is teaching. Highly recommend reading and doing all the problems he assigns, even though he gives like 150?s for each HW.

DO NOT TAKE A CLASS WITH THIS PROFESSOR!!! That is unless you are already a higher math prodigy! He is a little loopy and takes up most of the class time talking on subjects that have nothing to do with math. He also talks about what you should know as opposed to giving you the tools to learn the material.

Very difficult teacher, I regret ever taking him. I'm an idiot for staying in his class, I don't know why they keep him, he has no place in a classroom. My GPA is in turmoil because of this class, even though I do study and go to tutors, it was no use. I still could not understand this man. DO NOT TAKE HIM, PLEASE! LEARN FROM MY MISTAKE!

Please do not take this class.even after going to tutoring you will still not be able to understand what is going on.Hes confusing and gets side tracked very easily but he is a nice guy=]

worst teacher ever. just completely useless. he needs to be fired. he doesn't care about his students and he expects everyone to automatically get it which is dumb because he pretty much UNexplains it. he makes everything more difficult than it needs to be. he's horrible.

He is a terrible teacher. He tells you when he should teach you....

horrible teacher. I did not learn anything. only like 8 students stay till the end of the semester. Very bad bad teacher. lost my money and my time.

I am a very dedicated student and i get A's and B's but this teacher is just terrible. I really wanted to drop this class, but didnt because it would mess up my financial aid. There were around 30 students and after the drop date we were left with 13. I am currently taking this again with another teacher and i went from getting D's and F's on test

THIS IS THE WORST INSTRUCTOR I EVER HAD. I WAS COMPLETELY LOST. IF YOU ARE NOT STRONG IN MATH DON'T TAKE THIS CLASS YOU WILL NOT LEARN A THING.HE DOES NOT EXPLAIN ANYTHING AND HE IS HARD TO FOLLOW. ALL HE DID WAS TALK ABOUT ITT TECH AND GEICO COMMERCIALS.

Firstly, If there are ANY positive comments on this professor, he wrote them himself OR paid someone to do it. HE IS AMONG the top WORST professors of all time. HOW and WHY he is a professor is beyond me. TWO WORDS: RUN NOW!!! or run your GPA into hell. You choose :)

worst math teacher of all time, gives you an exam that has nothing to do with the content of the textbook, his notes suck, and his speaking does too. my friends told me to check out this website.... wish i would of listened. DO NOT sign up for his class.

terrible!!!! extremely terrible

If you don't plan on teaching yourself, and haven't had higher level math classes before don't take him, he's a nice guy but you will NOT understand anything he's talking about.

IF MATH IS YOUR SUBJECT AN YOU'RE ABLE TO REMEMBER SEVERAL CHAPTERS OVER A PERIOD OF TIME AND CAN TEACH YOURSELF THE MATERIAL THEN GO FOR IT!! UNLIKE MYSELF I AM NOT GOOD IN MATH. SO IF YOU NEED THE MATERIAL BROKEN DOWN AN EXPLAINED WELL I SUGGEST YOU PICK A DIFFERENT TEACHER BECAUSE HE DOSENT BRAKE IT DOWN WELL!! OTHER THAN THAT HE'S A GOOD GUY.

Horrible professor but ALL the tests are in the textbook. Only went to class on test days and got a B. Memorize the chapter tests and your golden.

His handwritting on the board is difficult to understand and he gives you different ways of doing problems that are not shown in the textbook. By the end of the semester we only had 6 people in the class, when we started the classroom was full.
