(Main Campus) He's Okay. His class is not that hard. He does repeat himself alot. We only had a mid-term and the final. Both tests are all fill in the blank. And he does check attendance. I recommend that you know a little about the basics of filing a lawsuit before you take this class. (Oh and the book is a little expensive.)

He is the best teacher I have taken. He is easy to understand and explains the subject clearly. You do have to go to every class and take good notes.He only give a mid-term and a final, but he review before each one and tells you exactly what areas to study. If you do all that you can make and A in his class.

I have taken this professor for several classes and he is terrific. He says they are hard, but his classes are SO easy there is really no excuse to fail. Honestly I don't think he would let you fail. As long as you listen to his lectures and pay attention to reviews you will pass the tests. Also, he has a great sense of humor. BEST TEACHER EVER

This is a co-op class where you go out into the legal field and intern. HCC needs to do more work to help students set up these internships rather than giving them a phone number to call and hope for the best. An analysis of the student's abilities combined with the needs of the firm willing to take interns would be good. I had a good result though

Spring 2007. Teaches fast & furious. Family law is the bulk of his practice. You will come out of this fam law class knowing more than most practicing attorneys. I feel extremely confident that if I get a job working in family law I will know what I am doing. Since that is why I am in the paralegal program, I highly recommend Mr. Esposito.

Prof. Esposito, A brilliant man, He is a very interesting person. Turn in "Paralegal" Program Pckg. in the syllabus. He is right education, training, and experience to have the knowledge and expertise regarding the legal system and substantive & procedural law which qualify us to do work of a legal nature under the supervision of an attorney.

Ronald Esposito is a great instructor. He tells what you need to know and what can be in store for you, as far as job opportunities and what takes place in each. He also delivers much of the information in an amusing way. Pay attention and take notes.

Ron is a good professor. I don't understand why his ratings are so low. He's laidback, but a caring professor. His classes are easy to understand and easy to follow along in. Also, he isn't boring and isn't looking to fail anyone. Learned a lot while getting a good grade.

Professor Esposito is predictably consistent and encourages student engagement. His ability to convey material clearly is genuine and his teaching style reflects the courses he professes due to his plethora of professional experience. I'm excited to continue and complete my course of studies with Houston Community College and Professor Esposito.

He was a fine teacher. The way he delivered the information made it easy for me to comprehend and retain it. He could be a little touchy if you asked him to repeat something but all in all, he's polite and easy to understand. I would take another class from him.

At HCC, it is impossible to miss this Professor because he runs the department. He talks ALOT. If you listen, you will get everything you need to pass ( including quiz reviews). Some test questions are tricky but so is the language of Law. He swears he is funny but truly outdated jokes. If you have a question. ASK! True life, on the job teaching.

As long as you show up you, you will pass. He teaches from the textbook but it's not an absolute requirement as test questions are usually verbatim about things we've discussed in class. He answers calls & text in a timely manner and is willing to work with you as well as fix any mistakes he may have made while creating the exams. &He's hilarious!

He's created the Paralegal Technology program so he's the best person to ask what you need to take in order to graduate.

Great professor, he gives very detailed interesting information on the subject. He tends to speak fast during lectures, making it impossible to be able to write word for word on what he speaks. I recommend to do a voice memo recording and after go take notes on your own. That will help a lot along with the chapter readings assigned.

He is a great professor. I have taken so many of his classes. Take notes and you will pass. If you don't understand something just ask. He is very detailed, I recommend recording the class. Call him, text him. You will pass if you pay attention. He is funny and he will help you if you ask for it! I definitely recommend him!

I took his legal research class this summer and it was as expected of a summer class. We were to read the chapters assigned (if you want to be able to pass the quizzes and tests) we had 4 quizzes, a midterm, a final, and one assignment. Which was simple. Will be taking him again!

I took Professor Esposito's class online because I took another one in the fall of 2020 and it was super easy. The lecture videos he makes are not too long but they are detailed to where you know what will be on the Quizzes and the tests. He gives you basic information and teaches what is mostly important which I like.

Prof. Esposito's video lectures were confusing, disjointed, with one exception when the voice was someone else. He DIDN'T USE THE TEXT SOLD BY THE BOOKSTORE. His lectures included statements like "I am on page number # in 8th edition. You will need to find this on + or - that page.Confusing. Why not use the edition sold by the HCC bookstore?

Great professor, he is strict on due dates and won't extend them so beware! His review videos are perfect and honestly its almost all you need to pass the class. Very detailed, honest and a nice professor. I have not failed a single class of his and I have taken around 4 of his classes.
