He is so helpful and extremely helpful! I never enjoyed or thoroughly understood math until I took his courses. I strongly recommend him for anything!
He's a great teacher. Take him for every math that you can!
He's the best
Very nice instructor. If you do not like math, take him; if you are a Math/CS major you might want to take someone else. He is known for being really good with those who have trouble; but you might miss info for higher maths levels.
Great teacher, easy work and lectures are clear and understanding.
Javier is a great teacher. I hate math and I got an A in this class. Don't get me wrong though, he's not easy; he is just a great teacher... he explains everything!
Very good teacher! Gives numerous examples and answers any questions.
He is a very nice man and is very clear and helpful
this teacher is the greatest teacher ever
If your not good in math, he's awesome! Gives plenty on examples! You'll do great in this class!
AWESOME teacher! He explains things so that you will understand. He allows you to ask questions when you don't understand. Hillarious sense of humor. Loves to teach!
I made an A in his class. We always got to use notes or homework on the tests. If we did bad, we were able to make up our grades somehow. :-)
This guy is probably the best teacher in the world. He makes everything understandable and has the best sense of humour I've ever seen in a teacher.

He is a very awesome teacher. He is very nice, clear, and helpful. I have him right now for and 1hr. and 40 min. and let me tell you the class flies right by. So far he teaches from the book so those who have problems with math can refer to the book because I have had teachers who don't and it was hard for me. By the way, he is hot!
He's a really great teacher. I plan on taking him for all my math classes at NVC.
A very excellent teacher. Takes the time to teach and explain the subject very well. Afraid to take a math course? He can help you understand the subject.
I took him for two math classes and they were great. He makes things very easy because he has a corny sense of humor, so you can get into the class more. He's not afraid to be a nerd. He also has some really cool markers that he uses to show the steps of problems. A different color for each step. It's great. It helps a lot. He seems like he's always happy. Great teacher.
He is an awsome instructor. Best math teacher ever, I recomend ne one who hates math or struggles to take him. His lectures are very clear and always offers to go back and review somthing for you.He does all he can to help you out and he's really funny. I like the way he encourages students and goes out of his way for you. I highly recomend him.
great sense of humor, fair, gives opportunity to earn extra points
Very funny and quick witted! No formula memorization with Prof Guerra, he lets you use homework, text and notes for the tests. He explains the subject clearly and does alot of examples. Do the homework! It helps you understand the material and counts as a test grade. Go out of your way to take stats with this professor, you won't regret it.
Best math teacher i've ever had! Explains things very well and takes time to go over everything. His sense of humor makes his class more interesting. I will be taking him through out my time at Northwest Vista.
HE WAS VERY EASY- EXPLAINS WELL AND HELPS WITH EVERY HOMEWORK- HIS TESTS WERE EXACTLY WHAT HE REVIEWS OVER AND YOU WERE WELL INFORMED WITH WHATS GOING ON IN CLASS- NO SURPRISES
The BEST teacher I have ever had. Funny, helpful, challenging. He could have made this class so hard, but it wasn't, yet I learned so much. Tests are open book, notes and homework. His personality makes the class so fun. Do your homework and ask questions. He is always willing to help.
EXCELLENT INSTRUCTOR!!! Never thought that learning math could be fun. Well, with this man it is! He has a great sense of humor and uses it to teach. He is always ready to help you if you need assistance. I took him for two different levels of math.
Cute as can be with a wonderful sense of humor. I don't like to do math but he made it easy and fun. He is so helpful and wants you to suceed and will help you when ever you need it. Take him!!!
Absolutely the best Math instructor on campus. He cares about your success, if you just ask! Do your homework, as it helps your test grades. He goes so slow that you can't help but keep up and understand. If you need math take this guy. He makes the material easy.
he is sooo funny and cute. his tests are easy and 3 of them are take home. i love how he tells jokes to keep time passing....great professor!
Best mathematics instructor at NVC. I took him for both college algebra and statistics. He doesn't hand everything to you on a plate, you definitely have to work for a good great...but he is always willing to help and go over things a second time.
J. Guerra, really cares about the students sucess. He is encourgaging and positive. No question is too stupid to ask. All you have to do is look lost and he is concerned. Wonderful teacher!!!
Best math instructor without a doubt. Took him for remedials and college math. The best!
I have taken this class like 300 times before at SAC and was never successful. I dreaded math. Mr. Guerra makes math fun. He helps you understand in the most basic form possible. You still have to work for your grade but he helps you every step of the way. All you have to do is put in the effort and time and you will pass.
Mr. Guerra is such an awesome teacher. He really knows how to keep a class intresting. He makes learning fun and easy with his great personality. I thought statistics was going to be so hard, but he really made the class easy. Take him, you won't regret it.
This Jay Leno look alike will go above & beyond to help. Loved the guy & his humor! All Math Instructors can learn a thing or two from this fun loving guy! He cares!!!
Well this is how much I love this teacher.... I had him for Math 301, 302, and College Algebra! He is by far the BEST OF THE BEST!!! I would never take another math teacher. He really helps you when you need it and explains over and over a million times if you need him to. He cares about his students and you would be crazy not to take his class!!!!
Easily the best math teacher i have ever had!!! You use the book a lot, but he takes time to make sure the whole class understands and even if you need extra help he more than willing to give it to you. He is a really nice guy who keeps the class fun. I actually like math now!!! My only warning...keep up with hwk and study for test!!
He was the best math professor i have ever had. How can anyone not like a professor that can explain how to do the same problem in three different ways!
the easiest teacher ever holla
The concepts in this course are difficult, but this professor has an outstanding way of bringing the students and info together. He is probably tied with a Gunnery Sargent that taught at my first A school as one of the best teachers that I have encountered, period. If you have the chance, take your course with him. You will not be disappointed!
Great teacher, really laid back. Lots of jokes throughout the semester. Highly recommend this teacher.
I cant say enough good about this guy, he is one of my all time favorite instructors. He always makes you laugh, which makes the class so fun. His presentation of the materials is crystal clear.Open book/note tests, even the final!I wish he taught every subject.I thought I was gonna fail stats, but i made an A! Makes it easy to earn an A. Loved him
Despite the fact that he's totally crazy, Javier still does a great job of getting everyone's attention and making the class really fun. I've taken all of my math classes with him, and I wish he taught all the other subjects, too. The coolest prof ever!!!
Who said you can't teach an old dog new tricks! I am a slow learner and got an A in Algebra with the help of Mr Guerra. He is the best teacher I have ever had. He has a great sense of humor, he is fun, patient, and the list goes on. He is the best teacher at NVC and gives meaning to the NVC motto.A great guy! He has my vote for teacher of the year
I highly recommend Mr. Guerra's class to anyone, especially if you've been out of school for awhile. He gave lots of helpful notes. Come to take, take notes, do you assignments and you'll be fine.
This is the second class that I have taken with Mr. Guerra and it was a pleasure having him as a teacher. He does a great job explaining the material and makes sure that you understand. Open book tests are a plus. Take him if you get a chance.
great... REALLY FUNNY
Mr Guerra is the best there is. He is a wonderful teacher and he makes the class very enjoyable b/c he makes jokes throughout the whole class. He is HILARIOUS! He also does a great job a presenting the information and makes sure everyone is clear before moving on. It is a tough course, but you would never now it with how easy going he is.
Koolest Math Teacher evea,, Will help you with if you have trouble understanding it, very nice person...doing him for cal 1 as well
I dont know about his regular classes, but his class for math intensive majors (MIM),to put it lightly, nearly made me rip my hair out. Tests are challenging, work is normal, near the end we were learning something new every class. nonetheless hes a great teacher, and very attentive if you have a question.
Very good teacher. explains everything 100 times. might be boring for people who are good at math and don't need the extra explaining. but good for those who suck at math. kind of funny. you'll mostly laugh at his jokes because they are so corny and lame, not because they are funny. he's really cool though
very good teacher. wouldn't recommend it to someone who doesn't know anything about the course. though he does explain alot of things thoroughly. it was my second time taking calculus, some of his explanations made no sense. but the answer was still right so overall. he's a good teacher, very funny too.
he is great teacher. very funny, the time goes by fast. makes everything very understandable and will help in any way he can
funny teacher......great methods used to learn. Understanding and gives u points for homework, which actually helps you by gaining points and studying doing homework
OMG (one of his signature lines)he is so funny. He breaks down all the work so that you could understand it. He is very helpful. I really don't care for math but taking it the Guerra it is fun. I would take another course with him if I wasn't all ready finished with my maths. I would recommend for everyone to take him.
He made things easier than most teachers. He is funny and that helped keep the class relaxed. If you want to take a teacher who wants you to pass, take him. He goes the extra mile.
Good teacher if you know material already. If you cant teach yourself dont recomend him, he is too easy.Funny but not strict w/material.HMWK due at the end of chap, we are 3 wks behind,online quizes due end of semester (nobodies started them)10% of grade.Im making C's on test. Again if u dont know material and need practice/help dont take him.
One of the best algebra teachers at nvc take his he keeps the class interesting ,im very bad at math but he clarrified a lot of material i recommend him!!!!!!
I took the Math Intensive Pre Cal and this was the the easiest math class I have ever taken. The material is challenging but the teaching is awesome.
Great professor! Loved being in his class, he breaks down the work until you understand it. He is very funny.
Very excellent professor; take him if you have the chance. Can be funny at times. Just do the work and you'll get a superb grade on it.
This professor is great! He is also funny and we always get out early! Just do the homework and you will pass this class with no problems!
I really liked this professor and he's 100% helpful. However, I felt like he over-explained and that his processes weren't linear enough for me. I know several people in class loved how much he broke things down, but it was very distracting for me. Work hard throughout the semester because, the regular tests are moderate but the final is a killer!!
Mr. Guerra is hilarious. I feel he broke down the material too much, but it did help. The tests are very hard, but they are all open note, 2 are take home, and 2 were group tests. I loved coming to his class everyday. Take him if you need a math course. You will not regret it.
amazing teacher.. really knows his stuff and teaches material very well.. extremely helpful and fun .. keeps class interesting and is always willing to help whenever you need it I HIGHLY RECOMMEND HIM
This teacher is so cool! He shows you step by step to get the answer. Very funny, in his onwn way. If you hate math, take this class:D
He is so funny. Everyone in the class got an A. My most favorite teacher of the semester. He explains stuff if you don't understand and you will laugh the entire class.
Nice guy. Goes around the class helping people individually to make sure you understand. If you don't understand something and don't say anything, you have only yourself to blame, because he will go out of his way to help you...tests were open-book but still very hard. NOT an easy "A".
Great teacher!Would deff take him for another math class. One of the best teachers here!
If Math scares you this is the instructor to take. He explains each problem if needed and he doesn't make you feel like you're stupid or wasting his time like some instructors do. He even takes time to explain the use of each type of calculator if needed. He is there for the student, not making his salary. GREAT INSTRUCTOR..Will take for statistics
Very cool professor! I hated math but he made if easier to understand and showed you short cuts and easier ways than the book..very funny and made class enjoyable
Had for MIM Precal. Excellent instructor, will break down the material as much as needed (even for MIM students). Is very patient and extremely willing to help. Test were hard, but he gives extra credit so it's possible to get an A even if you avg B's on in class test.Didn't require homework, which was great since it didn't really help on test.
Best professor hands down. I've never enjoyed going to class so much. Stats itself is a really tough subject yet he made it somewhat easy to comprehend. I'd take him again if I could
I hate Math but I love this prof. He is an excellent teacher. He is funny. Very helpful and wants you to pass. If you do not like math take this man!
Mr Guerra is awesome. I had a lot of fun and laughed everyday. He knows his stuff and I would suggests not missing class if you can help it. Take him!
Mr. Guerra is an awesome teacher and very funny. He really made the time fly by with his crazy personality. He lets you use your homework, book and notes on Exam and lets you turn in all your home work from the chapters on Exam day once your done. He is always willing to help. I would strongly recommend this class. ;)
Awesome professor. Makes the class and learning the subject fun and interesting. Also very fair, always willing to help and answer questions.
Mr. Guerra is a great person and instructor, he really knows how to break it down barney style. Meaning your going to understand what statistics is about. Home work and Test are easy and he teaches whats on the test. No reason to fail this class. I would take another class by him any day.
Mr. Guerra is an AWESOME teacher. He makes math so easy to understand and makes the class so fun. He is funny and witty. You will definitely not regret taking his class!
Mr. Guerra is an awesome teacher. He is easy to understand and helps you along the way. He is hilarious and makes the class fun. You won't be bored and you'll actually learn!
His class is super easy. But the tests never seem to be what you learned in class, the tests have much more difficult questions than in class. So always do the review he sets for you for some easy bonus points and study. You don't really need your book in class but it helps. But all in all great teacher
Took his "math intensive" course. Would take again. He's ready to answer any questions you have and really enjoys interacting with students. Wish all professors were like him.
Hands down the best professor ever!! He made Statistics fun which is hard to do in my opinion! He does give out a lot of homework but it is not hard at all as long as you go to class. Also, he is willing to help you with any questions. I would recommend him to anyone especially if you have trouble in math!
Mr.Guerra is the most knowledgable, personable & understanding proffessor. If you have questions, ask him even after class during office hrs. Keep up w/homework, book is on-line, & make a true effort to learn. Class-time is very important. I would take any math with this professor. Stats isn't easy but he makes it less painful IF you try.
Makes the material easier to understand. He is helpful, especially when you don't understand something. Also very pleasant.
Excellent Instructor! he takes the time to make sure you understand everything. He is an instructor that will stay late to help and make sure you get it. He also makes the class go by really fast!
Funny guy. I had him for college algebra and pre cal MIM classes. Math is hard,but he makes it easy to understand. Test for the MIM class are difficult, but passable. He is the best professor here. Take him if you really want to learn
He made the class very enjoyable and entertaining. Would definitely recommend you take this teacher for statistics.
Professor Guerra is a fabulous professor. He is definitely there for his students. I took him for Maymester and he made it a breeze. If you have questions, ask and he will go through every step, until you understand the concept. His tests were open book and note. He gives reviews too, I definitely recommend him. I highly recommend him.
Mr. Guerra was a FABULOS teacher! The concepts were a bit difficult at times, but he really made them easy to understand. All of his tests were open book and note. He was very approachable and understanding. Loved to joke around and would answer every question, even if it meant starting all over! seriously recommend him!!
AWSOME
Mr. Guerra is the best professor i have ever had. He is very clear and very fair when it comes to grading. DQ is not an easy class and he made it very interesting! this class was my second class with him and i would totally take a class again with him!! HE IS THE BEST!
Mr., Guerra was by far the most amazing professor I have had. He makes the class fun it goes by super fast. Few exams and home work Is turned in on date of exam. Definitely would take AGAIN if possible.
Mr. Guerra is amazing! One of the best professors I've ever had. He doesn't over-complicate anything and is always very helpful.
I guess everyone likes joking rather than being focused and serious about their work. Way too much joking. Never a serious answer from him. The tests were passable I actually did good in his class but the point is that he makes everything a joke and then comes the killer test. But I guess college is about "fun" not about being proffessional anymore
This teacher takes real world examples to make statistic understandable to the students. He likes to joke and is always available to help. I looked forward to his classes. The tests are not challenging if you study and pay attention , and he goes over everything in detail to make sure students are ready for an upcoming test .
Statistics is a very tough class but Professor Guerra is hilarious and makes it as much fun as possible! He is AWESOME!
Mr. Guerra is cool. His class felt like a fun class; like play time in kindergarten. And it was precal! He is very neat and nice and funny. However, be careful, he isn't as great as people say, please take my work for it. What I mean is, his class is "fun" but if youre not careful his jokes will side track u: HIS TESTS ARE HARD! HIS TESTS WILL KILL
Guerra was the best math professor. He is hilarious. Loves to joke around. Make sure you pay attention and try not to get side tracked by his jokes. Attendance is essential to passing. If you miss a class you'll miss a whole section. Take him if you have the chance. You won't regret it. He makes the class go by quick. Very understanding lectures.
Guerra is a nice guy, but there is a level of professionalism that is lacking in his classroom. He never keeps you in the loop about your grade, and when asked he keeps repeating "it will be okay." The excessive humor leaves little room for actual learning, and his tests are brutal. Overall I wish he would have taken his job more seriously.
Mr. Guerra is an amazing professor! I never considered myself a mathematician, but towards the end of his class I felt like I mastered college Algebra. He makes you work for your grade but makes learning fun, jokes around a lot but thats a bonus. I feel like the jokes keep you awake and interested. I am taking him again in the fall for statistics!
This class was amazing. He didn't give us a huge amount of homework, just enough for us to understand the material. He's kind and he's always telling jokes. I took him for the summer semester and it was a piece of cake. Just remember to always go to class because you might miss something important.
I took Mr. Guerra for MATH 0320, 1414MIM, and 2412. You dont use the book in class, but he suggest you do the problems in the book for each section covered( not for a grade). If you want to push your abilities in math i suggest him, but if your not the type to study and do homework you will probably pull a b.
Professor Guerra, in my opinion is one of the best professors in the whole campus. He is extremely helpful and dedicated to his job. He really is an inspiration!!!
I recommend this professor!! He walks you step by step to work out all the problems!!
He is amazing teacher I was kind of dumped into the MIM course and it was a lot harder than in high school. You need to study for these test the best way to do it is by completing the homework. FYI & MONEY SAVER THE BOOK IS ONLINE AS FREE PDF!!!!!!
I recommend taking guerra because he is so hilarious!! He is willing to work with you one way or another. Just show up for class, go to his office hours and you will pass.
If you've had him for a previous class, he might recognize you
He's good
I recommend this professor for not just statistics but for any math class being taken!! guerra is so hilarious and extremely helpful and clear. Just show up for class and if you need help on the homework, he is willing to help!
Mr. Guerra is Hilarious, we only had 4 test during our semester & they were super easy! Grade will consist of 4 test ( one of them is take home) & the home work. I would recommend everyone who needs to take Elementary Stats to take him.
Professor G money is awesome, very comical, and actually explains all material thoroughly although do homework or else you will fail! Definitely would take him for pre calculus again!!! wish he had a cal 1 or 2 class!
An excellent math instructor who breaks everything down into clear information you can actually use, but go to every class, take good notes, do homework assignments and study hard every day, because his tests are notoriously brutal. He expects students to understand the concepts, not just how to plug numbers into formulas. That takes effort.
I had to withdraw his math class because he was a very difficult professor to work with. he is a very comical guy but wouldn't really help with the actual work. I didn't understand much going on in the class, I'm not very well in math and when I would ask for help he would just reply with "it'll be okay" and "try the math lab" I wouldn't recommend.
I had the class mon/wed from 9-12:30, so the lectures did tend to get very long. He has a very playful attitude though, so that balanced it out. Doesn't take attendance. Everyone who says his class is hard just isn't used to college level classes. You have to put in effort! You can really tell he cares about his students .
Professor Guerra is awesome! I would definitely take his class again! He takes things seriously but while he does, he likes to make jokes and have fun. I would recommend taking his class any time!
This teacher had a great way of breaking down the problems. I am very bad at math and he made it possible for me to understand. He is a very funny teacher, which makes the class less uptight. I would recommend him to anyone I know and would take him again. I never enjoyed a math class like I have in this stats class.
Understand Algebra as this course is intense and formula heavy. Terrible combo book (Sullivan 10th ed). He does not offer extra support, gives 3 tests and a final( 20 questions ea). Hw is graded on if you did it, not if correct. No quizzes. So your not sure where you stand. tests on things he touched on. No application model, No concept. tough
Mr. Guerra is so awesome!! He really is an easy going guy, so don't be shy w/ questions. Also, he is super funny. He gives examples of what will be on tests & will work out any problems that you have questions about. Also, there are quizzes every couple of classes that can't be madeup, but he gives you time in class to work with him and classmates
Best math teacher EVER! I have never been good at math, but Mr. Guerra explains so well, and makes sure you are right on track!
Amazing teacher! Made math fun. Cares about all of his students and wants everyone to be successful. Grades fairly. Doesn't get mad if you ask questions and is VERY helpful. Definitely recommend him to anyone who is scared of math! He takes all the "math-anxiety" away!
A Hilarious Class and He made a joke to make everyone laugh. very motivate learn with him. and would love to take a class with him again, sadly he don't teaches 1314 that I wish. he is Rock Teacher I ever have!!
Great professor! He is hilarious and makes the class fun. Goes over most of the homework in class. It is important to be there to learn and and take notes for the class. Easy A if you pay attention!
By far probably one of the best professors in the Alamo Colleges!
TAKE NOTES & PAY ATTENTION & YOU WILL PASS! Mr. G reviews before some test. He uses jokes which help you memorize formulas. 4 HW assignments due on each test date. Test are tricky because he changes the wording. If you fear STAT I strongly suggest taking him. Overall "his class" is quite easy if you pay attention, take notes & do HW. Best of Luck!
Professor G is THE best professor at NVC, he is my favorite ! I would definitely recommend him to anybody taking stats ! He makes class fun & helps you learn formulas by making jokes which obviously help you learn the material. He does give plenty of homework but you have more than enough time to do complete it.
He is there for you when you need help. But beware: you may not take him seriously
he is a very funny teacher. I highly recommend him. I toke his in the summer for 5 weeks and it was super easy. you do not need the book he writes everything on the board. I would take him again.
Honestly, best math professor! There was no day I walked out of class feeling confused about what I just learned. I literally didn't even have to study for the tests, because he teaches you not only how to solve a problem but also how to figure it out on your own. He's funny and cares for the success of his students. 10/10!
Absolutely amazing professor, connects with every student one on one. Be prepared to laugh every class.
If math doesn't come naturally to you, avoid this instructor. Seems bothered or agitated when people ask about his office hours, like we shouldn't have questions because the lecture should have been enough. We shouldn't have to feel like a burden going to office hours. If you are super smart and understand every single thing then sign up. Good Luck
He'll tell you to work with classmates when you ask a question, instead of simply explaining. Gives no partial credit, even if the answer is right but the process didn't show every single step. You can only solve problems his way & NO other way, otherwise no points are given. Teaches one way to solve, does not offer other ways to solve problems
Do not recommend
Mr. Guerra is pretty awesome. He gives you reviews and goes over problems in class. He's super funny and does care about his students. I had him for 0320 and he really worked with me. The ALEKS was a little wonky but he offers extra credit and tries his best to work with you.
The instructor is funny and kept the class interested. I took him for 0320 and he really worked with me, I am sure I asked a million question. The ALEKS program is the course textbook, it great, videos and plenty of examples.
Mr. Guerra is super funny and explains the material in the best way possible involving the whole class. He's always in a great mood. The reviews are straight forward. I currently have a B+ in the class but because I have missed some lectures. Attendance isn't mandatory but it is very helpful so don't miss class!!
So I'm not the greatest when it comes to math, and feel pretty dumb anytime I'm in a math class, but this was the opposite with this professor, Mr. Guerra is the best math professor you can have ! He knows what he's teaching, explains in detail if there's something you don't understand, and always makes math fun for everyone. Truly a great person !
Professor Guerra is an AMAZING teacher to take! I took his Stats class and he made it so easy and incredibly enjoyable! He loves to crack jokes so theres never a class period where you wont laugh. If i could take him again i 100% would!
I love Professor Guerra he the best Stats teacher ever! He loves to make a lot of jokes and very sweet and very helpful I would love to take his class again he the best Math teacher!
Mr. Guerra is THE BEST! best stats teacher ever!
I've learned a lot while having lots fun in his class! he is caring, respected and funny.
Show up to class, learn the lesson and then do the homework. Great teacher that makes class fun. Does a really good job at explaining and answers any questions you have.
Professor Guerra was an amazing professor, very funny, and cool to be around. He really cares about his students and wants them to pass. He really sets you up for success as he lets you use your notes during tests and has test reviews before the test. I definitely recommend him to anyone who needs to take Statistics or any class he teaches.
Best teacher I've had! His teaching methods might not be the clearest thing to follow but you will understand it rather quickly! He makes it interesting and if you just pay attention you will pass! All exams are open note, open book, and you can use your hw. The final exam was one question. Super easy! Easy A and loved him!
Love this guy! I've taken him for two different math courses and he is by far one of the best math instructors I've had in all my years of learning! He's so funny, so if you have him for an early class it'll definitely wake you up. With stats, he made everything simple and easy to follow he knows what he's talking about. Only grades hw and tests.
He's an easy and funny teacher. Not a hard class at all, only tests and homework is due on test day
Ive always looked forward to going to this class! Professor Guerras positive & easygoing energy along with his informative, helpful lectures made it easy for me to learn & pass this semester! The only thing is that theres a lot of homework so its recommended that you do it as the lessons go along bc itll all be due on test day.
I took this instructor because the reviews were so good, but it is because he makes it so easy to pass his class that you don't even learn anything. Super laid back yeah but to the point where I hardly had to put in much effort to get an A. Easy A if you don't have to take higher math classes. But if you do, then good luck you won't learn much
Professor Guerra is by far the best professor I have ever had! He makes the class fun and enjoyable! He is super funny and explains everything really well. He takes his time when going over examples and will explain and help you understand if you're having trouble. I wish he had a cal 1 or cal 2 class!
i had him for a morning class and even at 9 in the morning he was energetic and he was ready to teach. This professor not only helped you with anything you were having trouble with but he did not make you feel stupid instead he helped so you can succeed. Txtbook hw is optional, exams are alittle hard, but the quizzes are easy and he gives more time
His personality is fun, he teaches very well. Pop quizzes are super easy, even if you aren't great at math its still easy. He will literally tell you what will be on the exams. But the first test everyone failed, because we assumed that it was too easy. He will go over concepts with you if you still do not understand. I finished with a B.
He is absolutely my favorite professor. He makes his lectures interesting and fun, math is usually boring but the way he teaches its not. Mr. Guerra is really funny and tells lots of dad jokes during class. He always teaches very well and clearly, if you show up and pay attention then you can definitely pass. He wants you to pass and will help you
He teaches one thing in the course then in the exams are things he did not cover. He covers the tip of the iceberg and gives exams on the whole thing. I was clueless for most of the exams. I received between 100-80% on all of my quizzes and homework. However, when it came to the heavily weighted exams I received grades ranging from 68-40%.
The best math teacher I have ever had. Explains very simple to understand, perhaps every 2 weeks of the material worked in class. There were hardly any assignments just Aleks.
The coolest professor ever!!!! Loved his class, took him in the summer and honestly was the best. TAKE HIM!!!! Way more fun too 10/10 test and homeworks are a piece of cake he'll help on anything
Mr. Guerra is heaven sent! Due to the pandemic I was terrified to take Statistics via Zoom. However Mr. Guerra's really breaks it down for u, he's super funny, & always available via email. Class is not mandatory but going to class, taking good notes, & doing HW is vital for passing. Lots for HW but gets u ready for test, 4 exams, & no extra credit
Professor Guerra always had a good attitude and was helpful. The only complaint I would have is that the class sometimes felt slightly unorganized, but still typically predictable, in that you could guess what you were probably going to be doing the next class. If your wanting an easy math credit, I would highly suggest this course and professor.
8/10 professor. He makes A LOT of dad jokes, but he's a good teacher. To pass his class make sure you practice problems outside of class, and you pay attention during the lectures. He is a really tough grader and when he says, "show your work", you must or he wont give you any points for it.
AMAZING instructor. He made a hard class an easy A!! You won't regret taking him. I took class in person before the pandemic.
You have to either attend the zoom, or watch the zoom. He makes a lot of dad jokes, but he's a good teacher, To pass his class make sure you do practice the problems outside of class and know how do the type of problems or you will fail. He is a really hard grader and when he says, "show your work", show your work or you get no points.
Professor Guerra is one of the most caring and genuine people I've ever met, he is by far one of my favorite professors I've had yet. I was about a week or two behind in his class because of my other classes and I was still able to catch up and receive a high A. If you take his class prepare for a whole lot of cheesy jokes. He is the BEST!
If I could give Prof.G a higher rating, I would. He is by far one of the best professors I've had at nvc. Math is not my strong suit, but he is exceptionally well at explaining, gives clear notes, helps on hw, and his tests are representative of what he goes over in class. He really restored faith in myself to take higher level math classes. GREAT!
If you're searching on ratemyprof with anxiety about who you should take, take this guy. He makes concepts very, very easy to understand. He breaks them down to the simplest forms then slowly builds up to harder questions. He revisits basic concepts that you may have forgotten (like solving for x) without shaming you. He is an amazing professor.
i took him for a summer 7 week class & hes my favorite professor ever so far. hw heavy since it was summer . his jokes can be corny but theyre so funny & it makes the class better. im not a math person whatsoever but i swear the way he explains i can do this in my sleep. If u gotta take stats 12/10 yall take him fr & thank me later.
Professor Guerra is by far one of the most amazing math teachers Ive ever had. He explains things very clearly and never rushes, and he always makes sure his students understand the material. He makes corny jokes all the time but theyre what make the class fun and something to look forward to. He definitely makes my Mondays a bit more funny.
IF YOUR LIKE ME AND NERVOUS TO TAKE STATS BECAUSE OF THE THINGS Youve HEARD TAKE THIS PROFESSOR. Semester has not ended but so far have a high A. Read text book + practice problems and youll do fine. Tests are word for word the review just diff #s obviously. Hes amazing and fast at responding if you need help!
The tests are slightly harder than whats covered in class, very understanding of mitigating and complicated circumstances and very cooperative, but prepare yourself, because the dad jokes never stopever. Still a great professor, the negative ratings were written by dyscalculia bozos who might need to take up a different major, also theres no hw.
BEST MATH TEACHER! I was worried to take stats but he makes the class enjoyable and the jokes are an everyday thing. The homework was a little dense especially if you're a procrastinator and the exams were similar to what you see on the homework. Overall he is a great option you wont regret it
Professor Guerra made math easy for those who struggle with it. I would highly recommend him for any math course. He breaks down the problems so they are easy to understand. If math is not your strong suit, take Professor Guerra you won't regret it. He will make it more understanding and fun! Plus he is a hilarious guy!
He's an understanding professor. What really helps is that you look view an example on the homework to also help you understand what your working on.Get your work done on time don't procrastinate otherwise you'll fall behind. Also, go to tutoring that will help you. I had many obstacles in this course but I study hard and manage to pass the course.
Professor Guerra is hilarious! He is always cracking up jokes, so please laugh at them. He is also very sweet and caring. The exams are worth A LOT, you must study and do practice problems in order to do well in the class. Let's you take quizzes 2 times, HW are easy 100s.He is not clear on due dates, so it's up to you to stay on task.100% recommend
He tells you exactly what topics are going to be on the test in order. It helps with studying plus lessening test anxiety. He's also really funny so it helps!
Professor Guerra made math easy for those who struggle with it. I would highly recommend him for any math course. He breaks down the problems so they are easy to understand. Best teacher ever !!!
Professor Guerra was my favorite of all my teachers if you show up to class and are willing to learn its hard to fail. doing the homework and showing up to learn the material is important for his class but he makes it truly enjoyable coming with his jokes and humor. I would 100% take again just make sure todo your exam reviews its important.
He is funny and makes learning fun. There is lots of homework but they are completion grades. The tests are what you do on the homework just different numbers filled in. At the end, he drops your lowest quiz and the quizzes are easy too. Definitely recommend him, I have never liked math and he made the class very enjoyable, I wanted to be in class.
Professor Guerra is a hoot! His jokes keep the class entertaining. While exams are crucial, with the help of unstuck study and practice problems, you can ace this course. Highly recommend if you need a math credit.
Great professor, his class environment was light hearted and his lectures are effective. I received a C because I should've studied more which is what every math class needs, had I studied more I would've received a higher grade. Take his class!!
For someone to absolutely hate math, Professor Guerra had opened my eyes to see that it really isn't so bad. He is very kind and caring, has a lot of jokes which makes you feel less stressed about learning math. Such an exceptional Professor, I would definitely take any of his math classes again. Best Professor ever!
Best math professor at Vista. He really livens up a classroom and made math fun. He is very helpful and explains concepts so easily. Would definitely love to be in his class again, I recommend to everyone.
