LOVED this guy. My favorite class to go to. I had to skip once and was very sad about it. Makes everything about psych interesting and tries to give you ways to study/remember it. Very educated on psych in general. I was able to ask lots of questions & get good answers. Only wants you to succeed in his class. I wish I could take more courses w him!

If you are psychology major and have a passion for it, I would recommend taking this class. If you are like me and are not a psych major, have zero passion for psychology, and just need the one credit to graduate. DO NOT TAKE! Class is SO lecture heavy and you end up having to self-learn because he can't make it through a PowerPoint. Not happy.

I enjoy psychology and thought this would be a fun elective class to take. I needed an elective and thought, why not. Big mistake. Huge. He treats this class as if it's a capstone class and everyone in the class is a Psych major. His tests are intentionally tricky and his lectures are not helpful. I survived off the book. Would not recommend.

He makes the material simple to comprehend. In his lectures, he makes sure to remain engaged with the class during the entire thing. Outside reading is needed, as he will go in-depth with the material during the in class lecture. He will often encourage open dialogues, which makes the experience enjoyable/better. I have no problem taking him again.

I thought Professor Angulo was a very laid-back and exciting guy, I genuinely enjoyed his class and found the material to be intriguing throughout the course. Exams can be a little rough, but reading the textbook is helpful while studying for exams. He gives a study guide before each exam, very helpful but doesn't cover all of what is on each test.

Professor Angulo was a great professor who is passionate about his knowledge. His lectures are interesting, and he uses helpful examples. The only thing is his course relies heavily on exams as there are few assignments. These exams are proctored in person. With that, make sure to read through the textbook and you'll do well on exams.
