Professor Olmos is one of the most genuine people you will meet! It is so obvious how much he loves the Lord through how much he cares for his students and how passionate he is about the material. Never did I feel like he was trying to shove the Christian worldview down our throats or anything though. Quizzes and assignments are super easy.

Professor Olmos is such an amazing person, and I actually looked forward to his class every day. His lectures are awesome, he prints the notes for you, he ALWAYS dismisses class 30-60 minutes early, VERY easy work, and he really cares about each and every student. If you have the opportunity to be in his class, do it, because he is incredible.

Loved Professor Olmos. He explains things clearly in a way you'll understand and uses examples from his own life to help you understand. He also does a kahoot right before every test which helps tremendously. Also, instead of doing a few of the papers, he'll do in class assignments with a short response instead of an essay. If he's open take him.

Mark Olmos is the sweetest professor I have ever had. He cares about the students and will work with you if you miss points or an assignment. In Christian Worldview 101, he provides study guides for each quiz and has a review Kahoot the day of the quiz. If you have this teacher, you will not be disappointed.

If you are reading this, it is your sign to take Professor Olmos!! He is the kindest professor I have ever had, and it is so evident that he genuinely loves his jobs and his students. This man raves about Jesus and not to mention he makes this course SO easy. He allows you to skip quizzes if your class does well on the Kahoot, and I LOVED him.

Professor Olmos is the best, he's very kind, genuine, and knowledgeable! His class is super easy as long as you do your work. His lectures have fill in the blank notes that make it easy to follow along, and open note quizzes! Also loved his stories added good entertainment to the class! Definitely recommend having him as your professor!
