He's hard and never lets you make up late assignments. Found out after semester was over that I missed over 20 assignments. It brought what I thought would be an A- to a C. Don't miss the LEARNSMART reading. It's tedious but there are hidden assignments in there. Wish I knew better. I would have taken a different teacher. No extra credit.

Mr. Lorino is a great teacher and a fair one, in order to pass all you need to do is show up listen and complete your assignments, he gives you at least half of the scheduled class time to complete assignments that are due for the next week so in theory you can walk out of his class with no homework if you spend the time to do it in class.

Jay prefers for you to be on time and miss very few days or risk being dropped. If you looking for extra credit to make up for missed assignments, none maybe offered. This class is well balanced in the terms of the grades you received and layout structure for class assignments, which is all blackboard. Feedback is minimal you have to ask if needed.

Mr. Lorino, is a awesome teacher. I had him for a few classes. If I had to take a class again that he offer, I would definitely have him as my teacher.

Procrastination was my enemy in his class... But he is well liked and respected for a reason... He goes above and beyond to make sure his students succeed in any class they take with him... This is why I am going to be looking for another class to take with him as my professor....
