I always request to speak with him. He is extreamily helpful and works with you to make sure you are taking the classes you need for your major and to accomplish your goals. By far the best counselor I've spoken with at De Anza. And it is clear that he enjoys his job and helping people.
He is super helpful. I always go to him when i need help. He listens to what you have to say and knows just what you need. He's super chill and down to earth. I recommend you go to him for advice.
Mr.Alexander is a very nice teacher/counselor. If you have common sense, you will most likely pass this class. You will need to study a bit for the exams and write very very simple essays, there is some reading from the textbook, and attendance is mandatory. Wouldn't recommend HUMA20, but Mr.Alexander as a counselor is VERY helpful.
I took coun200, which lasted for 4 days, in the summer. This is a pass/no pass class so as long as you attend EVERY session, submit an educational plan, and take an online final, you're bound to pass! Alexander is extremely helpful and wants his students to succeed. He lets his students out of class about 15 mins early and on the last day, an hour!
EASY A, EASY EASY EASY A HE IS VERY INSPIRATIONAL AND WOULD GO ABOVE N BEYOND FOR U!!!!!!
Coun 200 was only a few days long, but I went from knowing nothing about college at all to being pretty confident and excited for my first year. Robert was a down to earth professor who didn't single anyone out but still got everyone to participate. I would highly recommend taking his class! Its fun and really helpful.
Robert Alexander is a great teacher overall, he made learning fun. I used to have talking in class and talking in groups, well talking overall but he treats his class like family. He frequently shows that he cares for his students and personally says that he wants his students to succeed. His class is fun, interesting, easy, entertaining NOT BORING
Fun class. Helps you explore different majors and find out more about yourself. This professor is the best and is super funny and helpful.
He is a really chill professor who features a lot of cool guest speakers. We all learned so much in this class, like if you want to learn cool info and change your view point in life, take this class. It's not hard and you will have a lot of fun!
Best teacher ever !!
Awesome!! Excellent course, he was able to make the class comfortable.
Such a great class with such a great professor. He had us talking every class about such fun and interesting things that we all had a lot of fun learning and discussing. He was also super hilarious and had a ton of great stories to share with the class. Definitely recommend.
My plan was not to take this course originally, but now I am super glad that I did because I was able to meet this amazing professor. He always brings the class laugh, even the class was hold during the late night at the time when I took the class, it was always enjoyable to be in the class.
Very motivational and he will provide you with guidance for your career.
Really kind and caring, ended class way before the end of the quarter as well.
This class was amazing! Loved our group discussions. Professor was always accessible and helpful with questions. Most of my grade felt like it was from online homework which was super easy and the test were take home. He also gives you plenty of room for extra credit.
This class was one of the most eye opening and informative experiences I've ever had. He brings amazing guest speakers from all walks of life and there honestly is never a dull moment in this class. The knowledge and insight I've gained is something I will cherish for the rest of my life. If I could take this course again I would.
Great professor. He wants nothing but the best for you. Such a great class and you will learn a lot. Come to class prepared, ready to communicate with your classmates and be on top of your work. If you fail this class that's all on you. The best college professor you will ever have!!!
Took this class because i was unsure of my major but with all the research we do I remembered why i chose this major in the first place. He is a counselor so he does want the best for you but you also have to do the work and show up. All in all this class helped me reestablish the spark.
hes really good and awesome
Hes cool
great teacher! would def take again. exams are take home and a lot of extra credit opportunities available. brings experts to talk about certain subjects to make the discussions and class more interesting. really fun class!
I loved this class. It was so interactive and fun. He had so many guest speakers and presenters, it made everything easy to learn and retain. Id give him an A+, thank you Robert!
I was skeptical before taking this class, like how the heck Prof. Alexander can be rated so high. It's really true. Just don't cut class, you will learn all sort of new/horrifying/interesting things from his class. Homework is time consuming, but they are overall easy.
Tbh taking this class make it seem like waste of time. Most of the work are done at home and I feel like taking class for it and getting graded limited chance to explore and finding my career path. Doesn't knew my grade progress and not that much and I felt that prof was not accessible. Feel like field trip to Linked in was only helpful thing.
I learned little bit about my interest and career that match my interest. Also field trip at Linked in me good career advice and useful tips I can use in the future. The field trip was most awesome thing done for this class.
He motivates you through out the course and guides you as well.
Awesome professor! Very open, and caring! Class is really easy, just make sure to come! I didn't use the physical textbook so if recommend using the online package instead ! Thank you Prof!
He is the coolest professor I have ever had. He can really relate to students which I love. His Guest Speakers are very informative and exciting! I loved this class so much. He does a lot of take home tests which is great cause you can work with someone else!
HUMA 10 was one of my favorite classes this quarter. Prof. Alexander adds humor to every class. A couple of guest speakers are brought into class which is great! Learned a lot from them. Homework is easy (read & answer questions online) Would definitely recommend.
This was my first semester at De Anza and I doubt I will get another professor as humorous and understanding as Robert Alexander. I looked forward to coming to class everyday because there was always something interesting to learn. Also, he brings in a bunch of amazing guest speakers who make this class fun and interactive.
Excellent class. Easy to understand while still actually learning and makes you think about your own views and beliefs. My. Alexander is funny and relates to the class. He also brings in really good and interesting guest speakers.
Mr. Robert Alexander made this course engaging, fun, and interesting. He has many guest speakers come in throughout the quarter that help understand the curriculum. Participation is required, but he makes sure to make you feel comfortable. His tests are straight forward so if you read the book, it's an easy A!
Great class !
Dope teacher and if you have trouble pleasing your partner .. this class will teach you how
This man is an amazing teacher yall should fasho take this class
Makes class fun and interactive! I took his Huma 10 class
You have to be on top of your own work, but the guest speakers he brings are amazing and Ive learned so much- more than I expected to learn. Loved this class!
Makes the class really interesting as oppposed to being a bunch of lectures. You learn a lot from the presenters that he invites to speak. Great class and professor.
Professor Alexanders HUMA10 class is very chill and informative.
Robert is a really helpful teacher and is easy to talk to about anything. He brings in guest speakers and you take notes, but theyre all interesting speakers with a lot of helpful information for men and women. You can tel he really cares about his students and their education and offers to even help with counseling since hes a counselor.
The first time I took test home. He is really nice and care about his student.
definitely recommend to take this class, there's always something fun and interesting to learn each class
Very good teacher and very interesting class. Understanding and considerate when it comes to classwork wnd absences. Tests are take home and based off the textbook homework.
im in his human sexuality class, he taught me things I've Never learned. best professor I've ever had
The topics we learned in class are entertaining. He engages the entire class into the discussion.
I really loved his class! A lil bit of homework but he's an easy going great guy! All you gotta do is really show up, but I've learned a lot during this class and my group project in the end was super fun, not stressful at all!
Great Teacher, Truly Knows How To Count With The Young Jits. Loves Talm Bout HUMA 10 And Increasing Our Knowledge
Took his Huma 10 class, attendance is mandatory. Has many guest speakers, so there's not too much lecturing done by the professor. Online homework and textbook, and most big assignments are done by groups. Fun learning and enjoyable class!!
I really did not know what I was gettin into taking this class but really appreciated learning new things about sex and different communitie. Also hesring different stories from guest speakers. I will say, It would have been nice to cut down the amount of guest speakers to really learn about the sections and actually discuss each topic.
Took his class because it was a recruitment but I enjoyed every class. Im comonly a student that misses at least 2 class per quarter and I didnt miss one class. I actually looked forward to attending his class because you learned something new each time. I would hangout with friends and even have discussions about this class with them. DEF TAKE !
Honestly one of my best teachers here at De Anza I actually wanted to come to his class instead of feeling like a needed to come. He creates a very fun class for his students. I took his HUMA 10 class and would recommend it to anyone and everyone!
Took his human sexuality class. Easy A. Lots of guest speakers. Straight forward homework. Not a class for people who arent comfortable talking about sex. Participation is mandatory if you want to pass. Only downside is you dont know ur grade unless you email him.
Brings really interesting speakers about topics that really do relate to both the class and your life, so there wasnt much lectures.
I took HUMA 10 with Alexander. He is a really great professor I would take him again in a heartbeat. He really cares about his students and wants you to do well. He is willing to work with you. TAKE HIM!!
I took his huma 10 class and Robert is one of the most interactive and fun teachers I have had. He always tries his best to teach the information in a way that doesnt make you fall asleep and has tons of guest speakers to help give the students even more information.
Rob is great instructor who really puts a lot of care and effort into his lectures. His human sexuality class is enjoyable because he knows how to keep the class fun and interesting. I like that he leaves the more technical stuff to us with his textbook homework, so that it frees up a lot of class time for interesting lectures and guess speakers
Fun, cooperative, informing class
He is a great teacher and cares about all his students. Hes funny and tries to be very understanding for his students. He is really Lenient and wants to make sure you understand the content.
Hw every week but its not hard. Couple take home midterms, not bad. Hes chill and respectful and class was interesting.
Woooow SO THIS PROFESSOR IS THE TRUTH. As a first-year De Anza student, I was pretty nervous signing up for classes in regards to Human Sexuality but when I asked around EVERYONE and I mean EVERYONE recommended Professor Alexander and now that the quarter is coming to a close I can see why. From his amazing lectures to the inspiring guest speakers.
I loved Mr. Alexander's class! His lectures were interesting and funny. There was never a dull moment in his class. I learned so much in this class and it was all useful information that made me feel more grown as a person. I would take this class 100% if I could.
He a very chill professor. He really tries to make the class fun and be interesting by bring in more guests speakers than doing lectures. He dont assignment a lot homework and all his test are take home/group test.
Rob is fun and knowledgeable. He offered way more to us as students than just course material. He really cares about student success given he is a guidance counselor at De Anza. The speakers he brought into class were always entertaining and provided us with different perspectives. If you show up and put in the bare minimum, you'll pass his class.
I took Mr. Robert's Human Sexuality class. DEFINITELY RECOMMEND. Every week we have a guest speaker(s) which makes the class more interesting. Plus, it's easy to talk about sex and sexuality in this class. I learned so many PRACTICAL things about sex-related anything (thank you!). Great class.
He's a really fun and engaging teacher, he makes the whole class extremely interesting even through lectures. He's a very caring and wants everyone to succeed. I took his HUMA10 class and it was amazing with really interesting material and you will definitely learn a lot. I recommend his class to anyone who plans on taking human sexuality.
Took his HUMA10 class and I learned a lot not about the subject and about myself. The material , lectures and assignments were fun and engaging . Book is online and questions are easy ! easy A please TAKE HIM YOU'LL ENJOY !!!!!!!!!!
Great teacher. I would recommend to all looking for a nice, civil teacher, who helps you out with classwork , hw etc.
Absolutely one of the coolest classes I have taken !!! Just know that you have to be comfortable with with talking about sex !
As my first college class after a year gap, professor Alexander helped me overcome any doubts I had. Hes welcoming of anyone, which has made my college experience great so far. As long as you show up, participate, do your homework, and score well on take-home tests, youre guaranteed to pass his class.
I took his human sexuality class and I could say that it was a great class and very interesting! would definitely take again.
Online classes are a hit or miss for me. This class specifically, you have to basically teach yourself sex ed based on the reading. Honestly, just a curious google search is what this class is. It's not as engaging as other reviews made it out to be, but what did I expect?
He had personal problems this quarter so he wasnt as active. EASY A as far as I know. no midterm this quarter and you get 2 attempts at the online final (answers were online). Never graded til after quarter ended and never really replies but as long as you are active on discussions, you'll probably get an A.
I didn't get to know him very well as he was mostly absent during Spring quarter. All I did was self-study on the Pearson website. You need to read the materials and he ask you short answer questions. Easy tests.
10/10 would recommend taking Prof Rob for Human Sexuality. He's very upbeat so it's hard to fall asleep in his class. :) He brings in special speakers from different organizations almost every week to talk about various topics! Lecture activities are very interactive! Txbk is online. However, GET READY TO READ for hw. Tests are easy if u study!
Such an incredible and easy teacher he really wants you to be comfortable and learn and makes it so fun and easy to do so would definitely take again!!!
An entertaining and enjoyable lecturer, Prof. Alexander stresses enjoyment of the class activites. Class expectations are clearly set and easily attainable, leading to a low stress environment where the emphasis is learning about yourself by learning along with others.
A very good professor that takes his job serious and very fun to be around with, therefore, 10/10 recommend to take his Class very easy to understand and easy testing. I only have positive comments about him nothing negative, which shows a lot.
Hes such an amazing Teacher! He makes you feel comfortable in his class , and the lectures/reading are always so interesting. He also brings guest speakers as well , I learned so many new things and things about myself as well! Easy A if you do all your work and participate !
He gives you take home tests:)
Super interesting and also very helpful. I honestly think this class should be required for all college students! We talk about very common and relevant issues regarding sex and gender. prof Rob doesn't force his opinions on you at all- he just gives very helpful preventative information and statistics that are good to know. does a good job.
Loved this class! Hes an amazing teacher and very helpful, I would definitely take it again. He makes you feel welcome and comfortable when it comes to doing group work and just in general. Definitely an easy A, just make sure you do your hw and come to class youll for sure pass the class without a doubt.
He is a great and funny teacher. His class is very helpful, and you won't regret it when you take his class. Make sure you come to class, do the assignment, and you will get A easily.
He's honestly the best professor I've ever had because of how enjoyable and engaging he makes it to be. He truly does care for every single one of his students and he's always very helpful! You'll enjoy this class a lot, don't miss the opportunity!
The teacher gives you two 200 question tests every week and 2 papers. He does not answer emails. The whole class got together on our own because we did not hear any response from him for 2 weeks. This is an easy A if you don't mind spending 7 hours a week on work alone. Beware: you won't learn anything.
Very unorganized. Assignments were due before the reading was due. The first two weeks of class were a mess. Assignments had the due dates of the previous quarter and we all were very confused. This wasn't fixed until the end of second week of class.
I highly recommend him! He is very easygoing and funny, you learn a lot in his class in a fun way, he has a simple assignments due every Monday with only specific highlighted areas of the book to read (not the whole chapter), lots of interesting easy extra credit opportunities, and he lets you take quizzes twice and gives you study guides! :)
I really enjoyed taking his class. There are writing assignments, Connect assignments, and a few discussion posts. But, just turn in all the assignments on time and the class will be an easy A.
Canvas & hw assignments were easy to manage. Reading material & questions were not difficult to read nor answer as everything was highlighted. Hw & discussions were mostly based on personal opinion. Was a great class to learn further information from what I already knew. Professor was great & thorough of what he asked of his students.
Really great professor! Work is super easy, and is a very passionate and caring teacher!
Took his asynchronous Self-Assessment class. I really didn't learn much, and many of the assignments felt pointless to me (like watching inspirational TED talk videos and responding to them). Sometimes we had work due like every other day, and sometimes we had no work at all for the week. Chill and sweet guy, but I wouldn't take this class again.
Very nice professor, 100% recommended.
Professor Alexander's CLP Self Assessment class is one of the best classes you will ever take. This class will inspire you, and give you the opportunity to really get to know your gifts, your strengths and give you the opportunity to explore different types of career paths in a supportive class. Professor is kind and inspiring. Highly recommend
Robert Alexander is the best professor Ive ever had, he helped me apply for my degrees from DeAnza and gave me reassurance that I was on track to transfer. He was easy to make an appointment with and had amazing life advice throughout the whole quarter. I 100% recommend this class to anyone and everyone!!!
Criteria had alot of motivation behind it making the class fun and fulfilling. Thank you for all you do!
The class was easy, but it was terribly organized. There were assignments from last year on canvas that were confusing. He does not excuse missed homework. He is a nice and chill guy, but do not take his class if you actually want to learn something. You would be better off buying the textbook and just reading it.
Very easy class. Most assignments are self-opinion and approachable. He tends to grade stuff when he has time to. The canvas shell is completely disorganized and confusing, some of them are even available since 2020. Never respond to any of my emails whether on Gmail or canvas.
I had him for Human Sexuality and he was great. I took him again and it was awful, to be honest. He was unorganized. Do not take him if you want a passing grade or actually earn credits.
Very cool professor
I want other students to know that this professor is very interested and intelligent
