Highly recommend taking Prof. Espinoza. He's a great instructor. It is obvious he knows his subject and that he cares about his students. His lectures are very informative and he gives great advice. His class is easy so long as you show up and do his work, basically if you try; if you slack off then of course you'll fail. He uses ACE.
