Reyes has absolutely no patience for people that dont want to learn. Neither do i. If you want to learn and try to do so, he will reward you accordingly. As far as teaching, he could slow down a bit. Even so, he loves the subject, and hence can teach it.

he teaches like a college professor should- as though people have read the book. people who complain about him generally do so because they dont do the assigned reading outside of class. if you read and pay attention class is quite simple, and he is happy to clarify things for people who have obviously put time into the class.

Those that don't like this man's teaching want to be spoon fed. Grow up people this is college!! I took this the hardest way, online & got a B then an A. Mr. Reyes, gives you all the notes and powerpoints, expected you to READ the chapters, and the reviews were whats on the test. Period!& If you watch the PPt's you know the essay ?'s !! DUH...

YOU ARE EXPECTED TO STUDY/READ BEFORE CLASS FOR THE LECTURES YOU HAVE THE NEXT DAY. TESTS COME FROM THE LECTURES AND THE BOOK. CHALLENGING ONLY BECAUSE OF ALL THE STUDYING YOU HAVE TO DO. ITS TRUE HE WILL MAKE YOU LOOK STUPID IF YOU DO NOT KNOW THE ANSWER TO A QUESTION BUT IT WILL TEACH YOU TO READ FOR NEXT TIME.

very good teacher, bit hard , gotta study before class, when you walk out you would feel the knowledge that you have gained.. I LOVED HIS CLASS

Easy class? hell no. However, u do learn a lot. I thought i was gonna drop the class because honestly it seemed (and it is) hard. But if u read before class (before every class) and u LISTEN and take notes... and then u STUDY them before the test.. u get an A. Hard, but very interesting. Learned a lot. I do recomend him.

I was in a class with him this SSI. Had to pay $170 for the textpacket...I couldn't get over how dense some of the other students in class were...half didn't even have the book, he laid out all the stuff you were responsible for(better than UT profs)...he explained lots of stuff I covered in Finance and other business courses I wasn't quite clear o

Personally, He was somewhat intimidating, but after awhile you get use to his teaching style. He's funny, straighforward and although its a lot of material, if you study and read it will be okay. tests are hard, a lot of short answer. i missed a lot of class but managed to make a decent grade.

Hmm one word different. He is not a laid back teacher he will ground and pound on for his readings. The book will need to be read day after day. YOU WILL NOT PASS IF U DO NOT DO ALL KEY TERMS FOR EACH CHAPTER! No lie i just did not have time with readings and work and i understand my grade.

Great Teacher! A little hard but the course itself is hard so nothing he can do about it, he grades farely, explains everything in clear words and is a good teacher if you are willing to learn ECO and not just taking it cuz you have to...IF you do what he asks you to do and read your chapters a high B or an A is easy.

he lectures extremely clear and he covers all the material in the class. its very important to know the terminology in his class and be very familiar with the graphs.

he' cool, good teacher

I took the class online and found that as long as you study the book, it is pretty easy. He does curve the tests. Overall, it is not too bad.

He is a good teacher that wants you to learn. A genuinely nice guy who knows his stuff. His tests are hard but I haven't studied for more than an hour and I've made an A on the first two. He gives bonus on his tests and lots of paragraph answers. Pay attention in class and follow it up with the book any you'll be fine. Again, a great smart teacher.

Originally I viewed the student comments on rate my professor and was very scared to take him based on what other students said. Thankfully I went ahead and gave him a chance. Although he wasn't the most excited professor I've taken, he is very clear on what is expected and deadlines. Test are serious so you better review chapters provided.

I took both 2301 and 2302 with him over the summer. He's pretty good. A little uptight, but nice and helpful if you ask. I was only disappointed that we had to skip over some material because of the 10-week pacing.

I took ECON 2301 & ECON 2302 with this professor Fall 2010. If you read everything he asks you to and follow directions, you should be okay. The only down side to this professor is that it takes him a very long time to respond to your emails. Be prepared to be on your own.

Online: He is definitely very uninvolved with the course-- it's pretty much a selfteaching kind of thing, but that is how most online classes are, and it is not hard at all to keep up in this class. Very simple layout. 4 tests, and a Myeconlab. 15 points extra credit offered on every test. Impossible to not make an A. MUST READ BOOK though!

Mr Reyes is very strict, which is really good for my taste. He used to say in class that he would not force any student to participate, make questions or do homework. Simply that the best ones and the worst ones deserve what they really are and offer in class. I have already a major in Accounting and I was impressed with his class.

loved this teacher, every test comes directly from the book. as long as you read, you'll pass the class!

Prof. Reyes is one of those teachers that makes you learn. He is very knowledgeable about economics and wants you to learn. This class will help you understand how the US and the world's economy works. I was so lucky to have him for this class.

Took professor Reyes for Micro Econ. If you wanna slack off and expect an A don't take him. He goes over the material and makes it easy to understand. Read your book and attend class and you won't have a problem getting an A in his class. Very knowledgable and wants you to learn but won't push you, you'll have to do that on your own.

4 tests make up 100 percent of grade. He would say that he won't give extra credit, BUT he did give my class 15 bonus point on the third exam. He has a huge ego, so sometimes can be aggressive and rude. But he makes you read the textbook. I made good grade and think the grading scale is pretty fair.

Good teacher. Dont see why there is all these negative comments :)

In his class I learned so much! I will not lie, he is a challenging professor. If you do not read, take notes, and don't do the assignments the class will be difficult. But if you read, participate in class, take notes and complete the 4 test, you will receive an A. If you are interested participate, ask questions (not stupids ones). He's the BEST

I took him for Macro (first econ class ever) and I was blown away with his high expectations. He gives really in-depth and detailed lectures, and I figured out that all of the test material can be found in his "summaries" in the beginning. I made it clear I was willing to work hard, and he did everything he could to help me out. Ended up w an A!

Reyes is the type of teacher that wants you to learn. His lectures are some what interesting and you can tell he really knows about what he is talking about. His tests are a little hard but they are fair. As long as you do the homework and pay attention you will get an A in the class.

Basically if you don't read and complete the Connect assignments for each chapter (not required for your grade, but definitely necessary for your success!), you won't pass the class. He's easy to reach and quick to respond to e-mails if you have any questions. Bottom line - read + do the practice problems, and you'll pass.

Mr. Reyes answers his emails rather quickly and wants to be sure you do well in his class. Class average was based on 4 tests. If you study then you are sure to pass.

He only graded test for my class so my grade did not turn out as well as I hoped. However, he taught me a lot on how to be a better college student. I think this class prepared me better for other college courses.

Professor Reyes is an excellent instructor. Miss his class and you will be behind. His exams are easy and straight forward. His exams are based off his lectures and the textbook reinforces his lectures. I am going to take Prof. Reyes again for ECON 2302

He's awesome. I don't get why others are complaining. Just pay attention and study for the tests (you don't have to go over board). Making outlines helped me with the class. Also he has reviews before tests and those help a LOT.

This professor has to be one of my favorite professors I have ever had. If you pay attention in class and do what he tells you, you will get an A in this class. The very first day of class he tells you to sign up for the online practice and that his test look "VERY similar to those questions online" I never read the book, lowest grade I got was 89.

Professor Reyes repeats himself a lot but that's how he gets the information to stick to you. A lot of people complain about his class saying that he doesn't know how to teach or that he just draws all over the place. He makes it clear on the FIRST day that you have to read in order to pass. Some people are just lazy and want everything spoon feed

Honestly just go to class and pay attention to his lectures, his tests are directly out of them. He has alot of extra credit opportunities and its a really easy class, i would highly recommend.

4 test and 1 essay. Test are a little hard but if you study you will have no problems.

Not sure why anyone would give this professor a negative rating. Professor Reyes is not only kind, but he cares about his students passing. He doesn't grade hard and he doesn't overwhelm you work. I took his class online and it was very straight forward. I would definitely take his class again and I recommend him to others. Read the book.

Had him for Econ 2301 and was a great professor. Did not overwhelm students with extra assignments. Only grades are the 3 exams and 1 final. As long as you read you will easily make an A.

Reyes is an amazing professor. Your class grade only consists of four grades which are three tests and one final. He gives adequate extra credit on tests but don't expect anything extra. In order to pass, you must read the textbook and take notes during his lectures. His test questions are derived only from the book or his lectures. Read to pass

I don't know why he's rated so low. Took his online class and it was fine! He gives you a month to complete 4 chapters at a time. 3 exams, 1 final and chapter quizzes on the Ebook that allow you to answer as many as it takes to get a 100%. Only thing I didn't like was his tests opened on Friday @ 4pm and closed Saturday @ 10pm.

Read the course material, understand the chapter 's content, you will be fine in the 4 exams . An A is doable.

Read the book, go to class ready. Hes an amazing professor, wants you to participate and succeed. Would take him again any given day.

Sit in the front of the class and he will ask you questions, answer the questions right and he will like you. I never read the textbook because I found it pointless. Just show up to class and take notes. If he repeats himself that means it's on the test. If you are confused by a concept just go to the page it's on and read. He's a really nice guy.

Overall he is a good professor. Just read the book and you will pass. His terms are very clear, gives inquisitive which you have several times to try till you make 100. He uses camera, but if you read, there is nothing to be worried about. He gives additional point to make up your grade

If you read for this class, you will pass. If you don't want to read DO NOT take this class. The tests are a little confusing the way some are worded, however, overall Reyes is an awesome teacher. He makes sure everyone participates in class, and if you don't participate you most likely will not pass. He wants all his students to pass.

Get ready to read before listening to his lecture, follow his guidelines and you're guaranteed an A. Exams are heavy but it's easy to get an A, he's really hilarious during his lectures, participate and he'll like you. READ, READ, READ. That's the most important thing to pass his class. Don't skip class because you will need the notes.

Clear syllabus; Inquisitive and Exams for grades. Super easy as you can take IQ until you get 100. You have to read! Exams: open book, multiple choice and "essay" - Answer the question and provide an explanation to get full points. I work FT and took 9hrs including this class, got an A. Not easy but not stressful either.

This class was very easy and simple layout, 3 exams and a final with inquisitive assignments due each week. Read the book, be aware of due dates and you should pass. He is a tough grader when it comes to the short answers on the exams so make sure you manage your time on the exams to give a good answer and actually read the book

I'm surprised that the rating is low. The class was EASY with clear weights, 3 exams & final w inquisitive assignments due weekly. Read the book, that will help you. He is a tough grader on the exam short answers. He did not use the lockdown browser on the exam and that was very helpful. He is responsive to emails and gives good feedback.

Took him in person right before pandemic. Before, he was a great teacher, but very strict on his grading. You'll work for your grade! After everything was online and he relaxed a bit. Only got a B because of the one exam we took in person!

Professor reyes is the best!! The first test was lockdown browser but he allowed you to use your notes. Every test after was no lockdown browser. That was an easy A, and I am taking him again for 2402.
