I wish I wouldve interacted with him more over the semester because he's so nice and very out spoken. The quizzes and tests are all pretty easy if you do the study guides. Class work helps you learn Adobe. You do have to go find your own videos online to learn things. Can always ask him for help! He's very understanding just email him if needed!

Very nice and understanding! Besides the number of assignments that were due per week (which makes it easy to fall behind if you miss anything), I'd say it was one of my favorite classes of the semester. Most of the work was from the textbook but if you needed help or clarification, he was always available!

Professor Carlos Aguilar does respond back to you with 24 hours. He gives great feedback on your design assignment/project with his honest critique. Even though he is online, he does expects you to put a lot of dedication into your work, so he can see the growth in your designs. Expect to take hard copies of your projects in person. Good class!

He was very kind and understanding that some of us had lives outside of school by letting us complete work at our own pace. I loved how he sent out emails each week about the assignments and what he expected of us. He gave us multiple chances on assignments to make a better grade if we did not do a great job on the first try.

Very nice! He is very fast at replying to emails and has pretty long office hours. You have to pay for the online textbook, but you will use EVERYTHING in it, so don't skip out on it. He is more relaxed for online students, in regards to helping you out with issues. There is a lot of homework- usually 3 chapters with multiple parts & tests.

Kind and understanding professor. The course involves weekly discussions on D2L, and all assignments/exams are completed online. For the final, you interview a person in the field/job you want to pursue, share what you learned in a paper, and then create a PowerPoint (based on the information in your paper), which you then present to the class.

This class was a great experience, especially for a fully online course. He does assign a decent amount of homework, but it's fairly easy to get most of your simnet assignments done before the final project. The final project is interviewing a person in your career field. He is very understanding if you have any difficulties during the semester.

Twice I emailed him with questions about the course, and both times it felt like he didn't speak English. He was nice though and sent weekly emails saying what was due that week. I was and still am confused about the grading, I made all 100s but somehow ended up with a C. He took down the grading rubric so I can't even go and see how it was done.

Aguilar is extremely caring; however, few people mention how difficult his class is. The material is not what is hard; it is the amount of work. He gives you a week to finish each unit, but some of the units have tests/quizzes with over 180 questions. Our final was a 213-question exam (INCLUDING a 50-minute time limit) and a 2-month-long project.
