He is honestly the most caring teacher I have had so far. He is really understanding if you are honest with him. His energy is beyond amazing and his optimism is what made me want to become a teacher even more. Definitely recommend him.
take this class with aguilera if you have the option great teacher
This professor is one of my favorites of all time! There are weekly assignments and a few projects throughout the term. He challenges you to have regular reflection on your teaching which has been a really positive experience for me. He gives relevant and thorough feedback, not generic. He grades timely and there are rubrics given in advance.
Professor A. is an awesome teacher. He is very passionate in his subject. You will definitely learn a lot of new material in his class.
Best professor in Fresno State!
Proff. A's class was so well organized. I always knew what was expected of me. This was one of the best college experiences I've had.
Professor A. is a great teacher. I enjoyed learning and doing the weekly learning logs and activities. Overall if you put in the time and you do the work you will pass with an A. He is lenient with late assignments and if you redo and assignment to get the full points he will change your grade.
Great professor, he is always willing to help you out and if you get a "bad" score you can always go back and fix it (he will change your grade). Responds to your emails quickly. His "homework" is super easy.
Professor Aguilera is one of the best grad or undergrad professors I've ever had. He gives specific, personal feedback, believes in us, and is fair. He also makes expectations and assignments very clear. He's the kind of professor who makes you want to put in extra work. Thanks Prof A!
Prof A is awesome! He is receptive and kind, has clear outlines and guidelines for what is expected, and responds quickly to questions. Take this class if you need it, and take this prof, you won't regret it!
Great professor. Really encouraging and provides immediate feedback. Also, gives great examples of what is expected and provides multiple opportunities for class participation
Dr. A is a treasure and should be cloned several times -- every university needs one of him. His passion is inspiring, and his lessons are engaging and meaningful. His approach is truly culturally responsive, and his goal of moving students forward in their knowledge and capacity as a critical thinker -- and do-er -- helps all students achieve.
Prof. A is an amazing teacher! If you need to take CI149, I highly recommend him. He's caring, checks in with you to see how you are doing, has interesting lessons with fun videos, provides great feedback, and he really encourages you and inspires you to be a good teacher. Can't recommend him enough! Take Prof. A's class, you won't be disappointed
I would categorize Professor A as being in the top 3% of professors that I have ever had. His passion for teaching is evident and his knowledge of pedagogy is exceptional. He is patient and kind when you need help. He gives step by step instructions on how to finish assignments, or access certain technologies. I highly recommend him.
Mr. A truly is as great as everyone makes him sound. You can tell that he really loves what he does and makes it incredibly easy to connect with him. He gives valuable feedback and resources because he actually wants you all to succeed and become a great educator. I'd recommend everyone to take a class with him and see for yourself!
Professor A is one of the greatest professors that I have ever had. He is very knowledgeable in pedagogical strategies, respond emails fast within working hours, always very patient to help solve any technical problems. I hope that he will teach more credential classes. I recommend anyone take his class!!
Professor Aguilera is an awesome and caring professor. Makes sure you understand the assignments or content. Gives you a step by step directions on anything you are assigned for the week. Responses quickly on questions via email. Take this course with him , if possible !!
Professor Aguilera is an amazing teacher. The expectations of the assignments and instructions on how to complete the assignments are clearly stated. Out of all my credential classes, his is by far the best. His resources are phenomenal, and keeps the material interesting. If you have the option, I would highly suggest taking a course from him.
This professor was able to make an online class feel connected and organized. He sets very clear expectations, and gives awesome feedback. He checks in with students and actually cares about how they were doing. Make sure to complete all assignments on time, and youll be okay. I wish he taught more courses
Prof. A makes online learning easy and organized! Even after starting the course a few weeks into the semester, Prof. A allowed me to catch up on any work without penalty. The weekly module videos are helpful and personable. He gives clear expectations and offers so many helpful resources. I actually feel more prepared to enter my teaching career!
Prof. A really cares and is very understanding. Communicate if you are going to be late and he will give you an extension. There is lots of assignments in the class but nothing that is too crazy. I feel like I learned lots about being a teacher. I would recommend him for CI149
Aguilera is so understanding if you get behind on some assignments. He's crystal clear about what he expects, makes everything easily accessible. SO glad I took CI 149 with him.
His class is very enjoyable and straightforward. As long as you complete all signature assignments and be an active participant in class discussions, you're on your way to an A! He is caring about his students. If you can't meet a deadline for an assignment, he is always open to an extension. You will learn valuable info about being a great teacher
Great instructor! Everything in the course is very well explained and very well organized!
Prof. A runs an impeccable online experience. He is easy to reach and cares about the outcomes of his students. He tailors his instruction to an online platform, which makes it attainable and organized. If you want to get all you can from this course, participate in discussions and critically reflect on what he is asking from you.
Prof. A is truly a gem. His assignments are meaningful, he provides excellent feedback, is quick to respond. He is enthusiastic and makes it very clear he cares about us, how we are feeling, and what we are learning. High highly recommend him.
Professor A is a great professor and anyone who takes his courses could tell you that. His assignments are great and you will enjoy the course. He works with you and actually cares how you are doing in his course! If you get the chance to take one of his courses, I would 10/10 recommend!
Professor A is one of the best professors I have ever had!
I have taken several courses with him. He presents them in a very organized manner. He is consistent so you know what to expect every week. He is very clear on his expectations and the reasons behind every assignment. During the pandemic, he responded well by making changes to the course with students in mind. He is a very caring professor.
Dr. Aguilera challenges his students in different ways than a traditional professor. If you want to be successful in this class, you need to do more than just complete the readings. This class is challenging in that you need to take the time to use the readings to investigate yourself and teaching pedagogy. Be open to sharing personal experiences.
Professor A is a truly amazing professor! He really makes you think and reflect on your teaching practices! I wish I was able to take another class with him!
Professor A has been one of the most responsive collegiate teachers I've ever come across. I've taken at least 2 of his courses and he's just as helpful and supportive throughout the year. He's one of the few great professors that practices what he preaches; if you're going through a tough time personally, he'll make accommodations to support!
Professor A. is absolutely incredible! I took him for a 3-Week online course and he was one of the most caring professors I've ever taken. There were three projects that we had to do and few participatory videos. It was all extremely organized and he provided great feedback. If you're looking for a kind and informative professor take him.
Very organized and caring instructor!
Prof. As energy inspired me on day one. I knew this would be the best online course I ever had thus far. From sharing my experiences in a safe place, learning how to work with new technology, participating in peer reviews, and receiving consistent positive feedback, THIS course has motivated me to keep affecting change via teaching. #INSPIRED4LIFE
Dr. Aquilera is an amazing teacher! He gives feedback consistently and explained expectations clearly. This class will forever change the way I teach. Even though this class was all online and asynchronous, I learned more than most classes I took in the credential program. I cannot recommend this class and Dr. Aquilera enough!
They have an amazing structure for the entire semester through their modules for each week, and there are no exams, but there are three major "signature assignments" that will actually benefit you as a future teacher. They make themselves available to you, flexible when it comes to other smaller assignments, and actually makes some of the work fun.
Great Professor!
Really flexible and helpful! I appreciated his support throughout the semester.
Professor A is the best. He's incredibly helpful and kind. He made his course easy to navigate and understand since it was all online. All of the course work was completely doable. No stress whatsoever! You'll definitely be content with taking Professor A!
Dr. Aguilera was so organized and clear with his instructions for every assignment. If you ever have a question, he is always willing to help. Even though it is an online course, he made it to where we were able to interact with each other and I honestly did learn a lot.
Professor A is a great professor, he provides great feedback to the assignments and he is very understanding when you can not submit an assignment on time. The class is fairly easy, you just have to stay on top of the assignment, projects, and discussions. He is very detailed in his explanations for assignments. Defiantly recommend!!
One of the most understanding professors Ive ever had. The class was interesting and I enjoyed the entire semester.

Prof A is leading the way for future educators. He always had a positive attitude and was accessible. All of his work was beneficial and he always provided feedback. The course provided a lot of beneficial information.
Class was online, material given at the start of the week. Make sure your pay attention to due dates. Very well constructed class.
Professor Aguilera is a great teacher. He is very organized and really specific with assignments. I like that he is flexible and understanding when assignments can't be turned in at the assigned date or time.
This course is fairly easy to pass as long as you do the work. The work itself is really easy and was self paced as it was online. There were only three major projects to do, which were easier than expected or as they sound. Professor is easy to get ahold of and is really helpful when needed. I would definitely recommend taking his class.
I was worried that an online, asynchronous class might feel, well, like not a class at all, but more like self-study on a set pace. Thanks to Professor A's approach, this wasn't the case. I got plenty of feedback from the professor and plenty of opportunities to interact with my classmates. Great experience.
Dr. A has been a good and great teacher in the education environment. according my experience of this class, I think he has been very responsible person for his work and students. This is a sign of masterful of own work with interest.
Great course! I would recommend it to others. I learned a lot!
Dr. Aguilera is an amazing professor, he does assign a lot of reading but it is not hard to understand. There are 3 large projects, but he guides you through all the work both in class and shows you step by step modules on canvas. If you are entering the teaching/education field I highly recommend taking his courses.
Dr. A was an awesome professor. He is extremely understanding and supportive throughout the semester. The class is an easy A, but he still makes sure you learn a lot. He wants to prepare his students to become great teachers and makes sure he demonstrates good teaching.
Professor Aguilera is a really good educator. He really cares about his students and he doesn't make it difficult for people to catch up if something happens.
At the beginning of the course, I was nervous about this course but throughout the semester I realized that it wasn't going to be as challenging as I thought. The professor is really understanding of his students and is always available for his students.
Professor Aguilera is very down to earth, will work with you if you have an issues regarding lectures or projects. No book is required he will give you the readings. Only 3 major projects, however he guides you step by step so do not worry.
Saying Dr. Aguilera is an amazing teacher is an understatement. Dr. Aguilera goes above and beyond to help support his students and provides the best mentorship. His teaching pedagogy is inclusive and supports all learners. He is woke af. If you have an opportunity to take his class, you will not regret it!
Great professor with clear expectations. Work was meaningful!
Great professor! This was an asynchronous course and his Canvas set up was great! Prof A provides weekly updates explaining modules with videos and everything flowed nicely. His assignments are useful and apply what is being learned in the course. He doesn't have traditional tests, but there are signature assignments that take time to complete.
Prof A is an amazing professor! The class was asynchronous and he posted material every Saturday for the week. The modules were very well organized, expectations and grading criteria were clear and supplemental material was provided. He genuinely cares for his students and made himself readily available in case we had questions.

I have never taken an online course that felt this personal. Professor Aguilera is one of the best professors I've ever had, not just at Fresno State, but anywhere. He is respectful, honest, open minded, and sincere. Works with his students and never against them, which some professors do. I highly recommend him to anyone going into teaching.
Prof A is an amazing professor. He takes advantage of his knowledge of technology and resources. I took the course asynchronously and fell behind on work at times because of my career.

Prof. A was great. Always willing to help and converse with students.
