Interesting class to take. Professor Vazquez is very nice and polite. The class assignments consist of 1 midterm 1 final and 2 paper projects. 2 Extra Credit opportunities this semester.
he is an excellent teacher, very understanding and easy test . very good teacher loved his class
Holy smokes this guy's class is easy! You'd have to seriously know nothing about psychology to be overwhelmed with the material, he puts things in a very understandable format for everyone which is more important than being a tough prof. Nice guy though can't say the class was boring, it made me want to take more classes! Too bad it's not my major!
this teach and the class changed my view of everything. i look at things totally different after his class. he explains things very good and its no where close to being boring. take his class if you want a headstart on psycology.
He looks scary but he is a sweetheart. He is very easy going and teaches without surprises. His exam is straight text book. He gives you test notes prior to the exam (no surprises). His grading system is straight, no curves. You will love his class!
He is really nice, sweet and kind person, the best character as a professor. His lecture included lots of extra credits and videos that you will love. Exam are not difficult at all since he will give you all the tips so don't forget to come to the class with textbook and pen. His essay was quite meaningful for beginner of PSYC. Take his class, best

Awesome teacher, easy to pass with an A. He goes over everything before tests. Test are easy, if you study. There's only one paper to turn in.

Awesome professor! Helps you if you need help, tests are easy. Take good notes and has a good sense of humor. Overall, great professor I definitely recommend taking his class
Professor Vasquez is probably one of the most awesome professors I will ever meet in my life time. He helped me really understand myself in his courses and has inspired me to major in Psychology. Never have I seen him turn down a student. Makes you feel confident and pushes you to do great! Definitely taking another one of his courses in the future
I cant say enough good things about this professor!! HE is the best and the easiest Psych teach anyone can get. He is really clear about the subject and follows the syllabus.. 3 test and a final. two small assignments..Test were easy as long as you study. even 1/2 hours is enough! If YOU NEED PSCYCHOLOGY TAKE HIM!!!!! :))))
I took Abnormal Psych with professor Vasquez and he's an absolute delight to have as a professor. He's humorous, smart, and very helpful. He's very approachable and he genuinely wants you to excel in everything you do. I always have discussions with him and he helps you even beyond the class. I really, really recommend him! Among the best at LACC.
Great professor! Easy A! I took him for psych 1 and very clear and helpful. He is very passionate about his subject. Very nice and humble person. He only gives 3 exams and they are all very self explanatory!! Love his class!!
Excellent Professor. I took him for Psych 14 in the Winter. Very passionate about the subject. Answers any questions you might have. I recommend you take him. He's funny and like for his class to participate.
Whenever I don't come to class, I just study the assigned chapters for the test and aced em all! He gives study guides, too! He's a really nice guy. Very patient. Good sense of humor. His class is not boring at all :) TAKE HIS CLASS :D
I took his class but dropped because i already took General Psy and had to use my old transcript. Honest to god, I can see the passion he has for psychology and intuitively feel that he cares for his students. Great teacher, very knowledgable, most probably has real experience as a psychologist and his lectures are very interesting. TAKEIT ENJOY
Mr. Vasquez is the best. He teaches straight out of the book but gives many examples that make you understand he work better. He gives study guides for almost every test. Excellent teacher.
professor Vasquez is a great professor, if your pay attention at class and study the study guide he gives out, you should get an A without a problem. I took this summer class, it was fast but it was interesting and I got an A.
Professor Vasquez is by far one of my favorite professors at LACC. He gives extra credit that lifts your C to a B and he makes lectures fun! You learn a lot. All his tests are based on lecturesbook. I didn't read my book & always got good grades just for paying attention in class and taking notes here and there. He's awesome if you can, take him!
Best class taken at LACC. He has a lot of knowledge and you can tell he loves what he does. He gives us a lot of information and gives out examples that we can relate to making it easy to understand. Take notes and pay attention. I learned a lot from his class. Just do your work, study, and listen. I got an A in his class which was least expected.
Very great professor!! He gives a study guide before students take the test. Each tests are based on the study guide. It is very easy to study. He also gives one handout(homework) and one research paper(2-3pages) which need to do to pass class.
Just use the study guide, and the book and you're good to go. He's really cool!
Very good teacher to have when you are just starting out in college.
Professor Vasquez takes great interest and offered to help me after I transfer with letters of recommendation or in whatever ways I might need. He would give a study guide for tests to show areas of importance. Also extra credit & grades on curve. His entire objective is the student to succeed.
Amazing professor
Awesome Professor. He always makes time to help those who need it. Take notes even though he gives study guides, it would be more helpful for you. I took Psych 1, Psych 41 and also a Personal Development class with him and I wish he taught other subjects (lol). He is very passionate about his work. You must take his class. Enjoy! :)
Best psychology professor at LACC
excellent instructor
Favorite prof I've had at LACC so far. Very nice and funny. Will take the time to help you understand the material and loves student participation in class. Short paper to write. I'd definitely recommend this class!
Professor Vasquez is one of the most amazing professors i have ever taken a student! He is so passionate about psychology and about teaching it! He really cares for his students and is there for them no matter what. (Yes he does letters of recommendation) He's also super funny which keeps the class interesting and not boring whatsoever. Take him!!!
AMAZING!!! I love professor Vasquez, he gives very interesting and informative lectures that are really more like discussions because he encourages a lot of feedback. He gives extra credit points for the whole class added on to each test if students contribute something interesting to discussion! Would highly reccomend and I'll be taking him again!
The best professor Ive had at Calstate LA. Funny, clever, engaging and excellent when explaining concepts. I wish the counseling major could have more substance abuse classes with him as a teacher. The book he uses is excellent too, totally worth the price.
The class was fun. He gives the whole class extra credit if anyone participates in class (He doesn't call on people participate). He also gives out Study guides. Awesome class!!
Would take him again. He cares about his students. He gives out study guides and everything in it will come up in the tests. Funny teacher and gives extra credit in tests
Elio was a great teacher. He was very inspirational and knowledgeable about how to transfer and telling you you can do anything. I highly recommend taking counseling 40 especially with Elio. I think I came out of this class a better person. Easy tests, goes over everything you need to know and allows notes/laptops on tests.
I took psychology during the summer , because someone told me about his class at Cal State Los Angeles. He gives out study guides, there's only four tests plus a paper due at the end of the course (two pages long). He really cares about the students learning and understanding the material, I would say if you can definitely take his class !
This professor was responsible for the best class I've had all summer. I love his attitude and his sense of humor. He's easy to approach and had such supportive feedback it made me a lil teary eyed when the class ended... I think I like him more than most of my family. :S Take his class!
he cares for his student he loves to help student with anything school related he only test you twice the semester he would help outside of his class by email or office hours he is funny and respectful he will tell you things from his other class he would bring other teacher to tell us things about law, business, and even more
Professor vasquez I love his lectures. He gives extra points in class to use on the test. on his test its all multiple choice but whats the good thing he allows you to use your notes on the test. im taking his class in the summer right now. we have two assigments.
This teacher will not only teach you about humans qualities and way of life, hell give you a different perspective on life. He gives extra credit if you participate, is very generous, and makes the learning fun with cracking jokes left and right. His exams are straight forward. Amazing professor and person overall.
Take him !!! best professor ever. I like him better my family
Take him !!!!!
Hands down! One of the best professors ever!!!!!
I took Professor Vasquez this fall. He is one of the most respectful and funny professors! He makes Psychology very fun and energetic. He allows notes for the tests and gives extra credit points. Would recommend taking him.
Professor Vasquez, is one of the best professor I have ever had. He gives extra credits and study guides. Take him easy A grade and lots learned. He's amazing.
Professor Vasquez is one of a kind Professor. I've took him for Psych 1 and Psych 44. Both classes were amazing. He isn't a tough grader as long as you show up to class and he sees that your making a big effort to learn the course materials.
Prof. Vasquez is a great prof to take for any Psych class. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the class met online via zoom. Reaction Papers were like exams. His lectures were very clear and made the class interesting. I recommend him.
Professor Vasquez is an amazing instructor. Some topics may be a bit boring but participation can make it intresting. He likes feedback and students asking questions. He changed tests to papers since COVID happened but they are not difficult.
THE BEST!!!
Mr. Vasquez was lecture heavy but if you attend and class participates he gives everyone LOTS of extra credit. I bought the book but he tells you where to find it for free and you dont need it if you listen to lectures. The assignments are easy and based on pages in canvas.
This was my 5th and final class with Professor Vasquez. He is an inspiration to every student that is lucky enough to have him as an educator. Elio changed my life, and I will inspire to be half the educated, caring, fair, and respected person in my field that he is in his. I hope he becomes a life-long friend and mentor.
Exceptional professor. He is an amazing educator and his lectures are so fascinating that I wish I could take his class again. As long as you use the scientific method and give full effort into your essays and assignments, you will get good grades. It is not a hard class as long as you do the work and have interest in the topics.
Amazing professor. It was a group dynamic class he did not give assignments or quizzes for this particular class but it was a must participate in the zoom class and give your input. He is very understanding and does not pressure you to share anything you do not feel comfortable sharing.
Prof. Vasquez gives the WHOLE CLASS extra credit for participating, so that's great. The class was very easy, all the resources available on canvas. 4 tests (discussion post essays) that are not too hard and 2 papers. He is always open for office hours and engages in meaningful conversations. Awesome guy.
I took Counsel 040 with him in the fall 2020. I love that class because you can do the assignments at your own pace. I did all of them in the beginning of the semester because I was taking two other classes that was heavy and I needed time for those classes and i am glad I did. He is fast to answer your questions. This class is so easy.
Great class overall, I recommend to create some sort of discussion during class even if you understand the topic as to get extra credit, I noticed the professor as well brings in his past to create a discussion and to further connect the lecture and bring us to an understanding which is helpful.
Nicest Professor and You can tell he is passionate about what hes teaching
