My Professor is very nice and fun to listen to.He can make all of the class laugh and have a great time but you need to do your work.He makes us work and tells us that we have to work very hard. I really like the way he makes us feel special.He is also kind of cute.
I really did not want to take this class. But the professor is so nice and funny I look forward to this class more then any other course I have EVER taken. Speech is a lot of fun.
The guy is one of a kind.He can scare us as much as he can make us laugh.I think he is wonderful.
We just completed our mid-term examinations and so far both me and my girlfriend are doing great in his class but we are working very hard. The class is the hardest course I have right now and I am having a great time.But I do tease my girlfriend about having a crush on our teacher.
My boyfriend likes to tease me about how I think Mr.Puchot is very nice and good looking.He is an excellent teacher and really seems to care about everyone in our class.I know that both me and my boyfriend will be taking another course with him next semester.We BOTH think he is great.
I have maintained a 4.0 over two years and have never really had a hard time earning an A in any of my courses.However,this man is making my life a "Living Hell" I have a B- in his class at this point and he has told everyone in class that it is only going to get harder.I hope I do not learn to hate him because he seems focused on making me work!!!
He is both a fantastic teacher and very good looking.He uses humor to keep us on task and is always willing to answer questions.He is without a doubt my favorite prof.
HE IS THE HARDEST PROFESSOR i have ever had but he makes me laugh and damn he is FINE.
He is new at LCC but he seems to be one of the most favorite teachers on our campus.All of the students in my class really like him and respect him.They also seem to laugh at most of his jokes.
I never wanted to take this class and at first my teacher scared me to death.However,as the class has been given even more work I am starting to have fun and realize that I could become a very good speaker.
This class is my favorite because the teacher keeps it in control and we learn something new every time the class gets together.In addition, he makes me proud to be a Latina.
I love the class and appreciate how much he demands of each of us.
He is without a doubt the best dressed professor at the college and he is very entertaining. I love speech so much that I am thinking about changing majors.
He teaches the only class that I never miss because it is so entertaining.He makes us laugh a lot but we seem to learn something new each time we meet.
I love the man and wish he taught ALL my classes.He is the only Professor who seems to really care about his students.I wish other Professors would take a class on motivating students from him.
He is very demanding and at times comes across in a cruel manner but he really is concerned about all of us.I wish more of my teachers showed as much concern for their students.
The man is too HOT for words.He is without a doubt the best looking Prof. I have ever had and if I acted on my thoughts I would go to jail.But I am sure that it would be worth it.
i could not agree more with the comments made before.he is demanding,intense,but very willing to help all of us.I love his class and I thought I would hate taking speech.
I had to come back to Laredo for personel reasons and was not looking forward to becoming a Community College student because my friends told that this place was a joke.However, Mr.Puchot makes me work harder then ANY Prof.I ever had at UT and he is always making my class laugh.Best Prof. I have EVER had.
This is the most intense class I have ever taken.The professor combines the qualities of intensity and challenge like no teacher I have ever had.Do NOT take this class if you are NOT willing to really work because the man does not seem to be playing when it comes to demanding the best from my class.
You will never get bored in this class because he is very funny and you learn a lot.I will be taking another course with him this Spring.He is my favorite Professor because he makes the class fun.
HE IS A GOOD PROFFESSOR HE'S RESPONSIBLE AND ASIDE OF TEACHING US COMMUNICATION HE ALSO TEACHES RESPONSIBILITY AS WELL HE'S ALSO VERY CARING OF HIS STUDENTS AND ALWAYS TRY TO HELP IN ALL THAT HE CAN HE'S AN EXELLENT INSTRUCTOR
MAN WHAT A PROFESSOR!!=) He is absolutly the best teacher I have ever had within my 2 years of college. He is very helpful and explains very clearly what is needed. He may be intense at times but so that reality doesn't hit you in the face once you face it. There is no regets at all for taking with this professor.Thank You So Much For Your Help=)
Mr Puchot offers a very stimulating teacher! He is very concerned about you passing, is extremely helpful.
Mr. Puchot is an excellent professor. I learn to control my fear and anxiety of public speaking.
He is a great teacher to learn from. It was an adventure and he made sure to challenge us mentally. I wish we would have had much more time to learn more from him cause he has alot to offer for our future. I would recommend anyone taking his course.
Excellent Professor!! Has plenty of knowledge and shares it. He is a great speaker and makes you pay attention to his every word.
I highly recommend Mr. Puchot to anyone that is gonna take his class. His teaching is very effective and interesting just to say that I take with him in the evening and have never once caught myself falling asleep in his class. Great Professor!!!!
Hes a really good instructor and has alot of experience. I really enjoy his class.
Really great teacher! You really will learn. Not like other teachers who just talk and never ask you if you understood. Speaks clearly and is very helpful and understanding. I would take his course again just to learn more from him. Class was alway fun and very informative. Again, great teacher, one of the best I've had since I began college!
He is a very strict,but helpful professor. He is willing to help you in whatever you need whether is about the class or personal.
Without a doubt one of the best professors I have had. Mr. Puchot challenges his students to try their best. Personally, I feel like I have learned things that will help me, not only in the workplace, but for every other aspect of my life. Is it easy? No, but it's not hard if you push yourself to do your best. Don't worry, he's ALWAYS there to help
he is a good proffesor the class is challenging but really fun great great teacher
Mr. Puchot at first seemed to be a strict teacher, but i was wrong he is an awesome teacher!! has excellent communication skills, great tone of voice, great ideas, has alot of knowledge, but not just about being a good communicator but being a great student over all, very helpful all the time!!
Incredibly helpful to students. He shows great skill in what he does. Best teacher from my first year. Tip: always present first. Don't procrastinate.
He is one of the few teachers I have had in my life that actually made learning interesting. His class has taught me lessons not only academically, but also lessons i can apply in my life. he always makes the class entertaining and he communicates with the students very much. this class is worth taking
Mr.Puchot is a great teacher and makes learning interesting. The way he goes about his class is orderly and very organized. Organization is very important when trying to learn and he does that great.He cracks a few jokes here and there which is great light. do your work and everything will be just fine. I would strongly reccomend taking him
Funny, attentive, and pretty cool teacher.
very good teacher, enjoyed this class!!
When taking speech I highly recommend this teacher. He is someone who really enjoys what he does and is always in a good mood. He communicates well with students and makes sure his students understand his lessons/lectures. Tip: One thing that he doesn't like is tardyness!
I recommend this class because it will help you alot when you give speech in front of class. Mr. Pucho, Great Job, I Love Your class. Take Care and see around
Mr.Puchot has been one of the best proffesors I have ever had. He is a very respectful, educated,organized and comprehensive proffesor. Mr. Puchot has teached my classmates and me how to obtain the confidence needed to overcome the fearness of public speaking. It has been a privilege having Mr Puchot as a teacher. TIP:DONT YAWN WHILE HE'S LECTURIN
The professor is an excellent professor. He helps you out with problems you have in class and he is real lineant. He gives you ways to improve your structure of a speech and is strict at times for attendance.
MR. PUCHOT IS A PROFESSOR THAT GOES ABOVE AND BEYOND WHEN IT COMES TO PUBLIC SPEAKING HE IS ALSO A PROFESSOR THAT TEACHES IN A DIFFERENT MANNER THAN OTHERS. HE HELP ME BECOME A BETTER SPEAKER AND EVERYTHING I LEARNED BY HIM HELPED ME APPLY IT TO MY LIFE. THIS PROFESSOR DISERVES TWO THUMBS UP.....
Awesome professor, he helped me get into a university and went above and beyond. Don't be late or he'll call you out on it, and he hears everything! But I deffantly got over my fear of public speeking and am now looking foward to talking in front of the class.
VERY good teacher. he is always willing to lend out a helping hand and he makes it very clear that not only his class, but all classes are important. i look forward to his class because he makes learning fun and interesting. HIGHLY recommend this professor!
IN PREPERATION IN ADDRESSING THE WORLD FOR WHATEVER REASON, TAKING SPEECH WITH MR.PUCHOT WILL PROVE TO HAVE BEEN YOUR BEST DECISION. PROFESSOR IS PATIENT, UNDRSTANDING, AND WILL PUSH FOR YOU TO DO YOUR BEST EFFORT.

He's extremely laid back and very helpful when you do need him, he is a professor i highly reccomend and i will never forget him. <3!
good teacher
Excellent choice of professor for course
good teacher i really learned alot.
Mr. Puchot is a great Professor. He is one of the few who is doing a lot of motivation to the group. He is the person you know he will tell you the truth, but at the same time he will help you to improve. This is he first time that I really feel very motivated to continue studying.
Great teacher, help student throughout the semester, fun class.
Mr. Raymond is a very good teacher that does everything for his students to succeed. he is very honest and doesn't give that much homework, but expects for you to do a good job when he hands out anything. if i could retake speech again i would of taken it with him
He is a really good teacher...
Outstanding professor with great enthusiasim and lots of help. Very outspoken as well as entertaining all while staying focused on course and helping students become great speakers.
Outstanding Teacher !!! I Really recommend his class !
he is an awesome professor. he will work with you at all times!
he is a great teacher, proud of his roots as a latino. He will work with you. His class isn't difficult at all. His class room environment is very simply the best. you will get over your fears of public speaking, and it is a guarantee that you will come out a better speaker because he gives you advice after ever speech.
WHAT CAN I SAY ABOUT MR. PUCHOT HE IS A GREAT TEACHER THE 1ST TIME THAT I MET HIM HE WAS REALLY STRICT THE FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL BUT THATS BECAUSE HE WANTS YOU TO DO YOUR BEST AND THATS ONE OF THE THINGS THAT HE HAS THOUGHT ME AND I REALLY APPERICATE HIM AS A TEACHER OR A PROFESSER CANT WAIT TO SEE NEX SEMSTER IN YOUR CLASS AGAIN
BRILLIANT PROFESSOR! although i dont agree with his grading, its impossible to fail his class, unless you really dont do your work! he will push you to do better and he just wants the best for you! i absolutely recommend this professor!
I was priveldge to have mr.puchot as my professor. He is a really good professor I liked the way he handled the class. He is very understanding of situations. I really enjoyed his class n appreciate his beleifs n efforts for the future for lcc students. Thamks n take care mr puchot
This class was the most enjoyable course I have ever had both in H.S and in college. My class was funny but hard working. The Prof.was hard but VERY sexxy.I will take another class from him next semester and I hope to get to know him better.
I had a lot of personel problems this semester and failed most of my classes but Professor.Puchot never gave up on me and FORCED me to keep coming to class and work with the other students.I want to take him for another course next semester and I know I will do much better.Thank you for being my friend and I hope that you do not leave LCC.
I never wanted to take a Speech class and I NEVER wanted to have to give a speech but Prof's Puchot class has changed my attitude forever. I loved my class and the Prof. was wonderful.He kept me motivated and helped me from being afraid of Public Speaking. I can never thank him enough.If you get a chance take his class ASAP it will change your lif
I had a great time in my class. My group was always very supportive and the teacher was always willing to help all of us. He even wrote me a wonderful letter of rec.and I will be leaving LCC in the Fall of 2011 with a scholarship to TAMU.
Mr. Puchot is awesome!! He jokes around a lot but also takes his job sersiously. He is very helpful! His exams are the same as notes! He is very understanding! I am so glad I took it with him. He makes everyone feel comfortable! and he interacts with the students! Mr. Puchot-A+ ! :D
He seems very charming and well spoken.He makes the entire class laugh in his lectures and is always willing to answer questions even if they are silly.
The class scares the HELL out of me but the Professor really turns me on.I love the way he challenges us and yet is really willing to support any of our efforts around the college.
I agree with the comment below because he can be very hard and intense when you do not present well. He is very scary but he seems willing to listen and help all of us in my class.He is very unique but really seems to care about all of us.He is cool in a weird way.
No doubt about it if you come to his class unprepared I PRAY for you. He is always expecting the best from us and will let you know when you are not meeting the standards for his class.Speech is a really intense class.
I did not want to take Speech but it has become my favorite class because the Professor is always funny and you never know what type of surprise he has in store for us.The class is never dull.
I had him last semester and I loved the class.It is not easy but if you listen,practice,and work hard you can do well and also have a great time. My boyfriend is in his class now and he is nervous but he also likes the professor a LOT.
I am a Non-traditional student who works in the Banking Industry here in Laredo. I am taking this class in order to complete my degree at TAMU. Mr.Puchot seems to enjoy putting a great deal of stress on everyone in my class. He is very enjoyable to listen to during lecture but asks very difficult questions to any one who speakes in class. BEWARE!!!
I had a fantastic Spring Break because I received a scholarship to Our Lady of The Lake University which I will be transferring to next Fall. Prof.Puchot wrote a great letter of rec.for me and even made phone calls on my behalf. I know that Mr.Puchot is very demanding in class but he is the type of Prof.that will do anything to help his students.
I really like Mr.Puchot because while I had never taken a Speech Class before but he makes it fun and enjoyable. I am NEVER bored during his lectures because of his sense of humor. Giving Speeches does make me nervous but I am starting to feel more confident and I am even looking forward to his Q & A.
i NEVER thought I would be stupid enough to have a SILLY SCHOOL GIRL CRUSH ON ONE OF MY TEACHERS UNTIL NOW. Mr.Puchot is simply the finest looking teacher I have ever had and his charming appeal makes me melt. I LOVE MY SPEECH CLASS.
My friend told me that she was going to rate our Speech Instructor and tell it like it is. I agree with her comments below and am also very impressed with him for a wide variety of reasons including his sex appeal and manners.I really enjoy coming to his class.
It is true that Mr.Puchot is smart and good looking but his class is really HARD and keeps me up all night long.I have never had to work so hard to get a good grade in all my life and I really hope all of my haed work will get me what I want from his class.
Mr. Puchot is great!!!...He is charming, deep voice, and very articulate! He interacts with the students, and he wants to see his students succeed! I got an A+ in his class! It was super easy! I was never stressed :) He is also funny and great with comebacks when he jokes around! I highly recommend him!!! :D Puchot= A+! & his tests are easy!
He is a great professor, it is a fun and learning class. it remind me of Stand and Deliver. If you are looking for a great fun and learning class for speech I recommend you take this one with Mr. Puchot
Very helpful.
Great teacher, and grate personality. Always helpful, and understanding of other students. Pushes you to strive in his classroom. One of the best teacher's I've ever had.
He's an awesome Teacher one of the best I've been taught by.
May you rest in peace. its because of you I have more confidence when it comes to conveying information to crowds. By far one of the best professors Ive ever had.
Mr. Puchot was a great instructor, the best i?ve ever had. May he rest in peace. I?m so blessed to have been a part of his class. <3.
Mr. Raymond Puchot was the best teacher I've ever met, he was also funny in giving us examples of what he taught. May he now R.I.P. Im sure gonna miss him. Because of him I now know how to communicate more often.
Mr. Raymond Puchot was an excellent instructor. I was so happy of having him as my professor for this past semester. He made me lose my fear of public speaking. I will always have him in my heart for the dedication, the time, and the patience he had towards my class.
I will forever remember him. Amazing professor <3 rip mr.puchot
