Mr. Soto is my counsler and I felt that was a great help to me. He explained everything clearly and made sure he knew what I wanted from rcc.
New teacher. Very energetic but its a cover for skill. He does not know the material fully just yet and seems like he wings the lessons. He sometimes treats students like if we were in highschool still and he gives too much importance to irrelavent assignments.
He is a really cool Teacher he's energetic, understanding, helpful, funny, and he will not let you fall asleep!!He knows what he is teaching and you can tell he believes it. He is also a counselor and the puente guidence teacher. i took two of his classes and have no complains.For the tests he gives you the Study guid so thats really cool.
Even though he has an accent, he is a Very Good Counselor. offers a lot of help. Sits with you patiently and answers all of your questions.
Mr.Soto is amazing. I learned sooo much in his class. It was the perfect class to take straight out of high school and im gonna keep contact with him. he is helpful and understanding.
The class was fun , he was a good teacher.. He was just a lil annoying at times because he would treat us like we were young kids in high school, rather then young adults.. He shouldn't blame the whole class for what certain people do... But over all I would recommend him.. He was a good teacher.
Mr. Soto was one of the most energetic instructors I have had in a LONG time!!! He is so passionate about helping his students find themselves and what suits them in terms of their academia or career! YOU MUST TAKE HIM! Do the readings and the exercises in the book and you will walk out of class with a plan! LOVE HIM! He is great!
this class is an easy A as long as u do the work and study the studyguide you need to have all materials need for the class as he says or he will humiliate u so bring ur stuff
He was very helpful
He is a great teacher, his first apperance of him he seems like a rather hard techer because he has high standards, but i would defiently recommnd him, he is a very helpful professor
he is AWESOME!!!!!!!!!! fun spontanious and a great guy. if you see him outside of class he will shake your hand and say hi. super friendly and i would recomend him to everyone
Mr.Soto is really great professor. He lets you know you to survive in this crazy world and how to take responsibility. Anything that you do in this class he relates it to a real life situation. This class isn't hard at all just do the work and Study the study guides given.
Mr. Soto is an amazing teacher. You will honestly have to take a look and evaluate yourself after he is done with you. He has changed my life tremendously and I thank God for giving me such an amazing person like him in my life.
HE IS AN AMAZING TEACHER!!!!! I WILL NEVER REGRET HAVING HIM AS PROFESSOR!!HE MADE ME PUSH MYSELF HARDER AND HARDER AND SHOWED ME THAT IN ORDER TO BE SUCCESSFUL IN LIFE U HAVE TO HAVE FAITH IN YOURSELF AND TRY AS HARD AS U CAN TO BECOME WHAT U REALLY WANT TO DO!!!! THANKS A LOT MR.SOTO!!!(:
I am glad that i had this instructor. Mr. Soto is a wonderful professor. He can be tough on you(he was on me), but he knows it's for the best. He teaches you the basic fundamentals in life and tries to help you apply them to yourself. Take the class and the subject seriously, it will benefit you and give you a different and better outlook on life.
Mr. Soto is an amazing teacher. I've never seen any instructor do his job with such a passion. He really does care about your success in school, and in life. He does push you a lot, but it's for your own benefit. It has been a privilege to be in his class.
Mr. Soto is by far the best teacher that i have had. He is entertaining and helpful and i will remember everything that i learned in his class, the information i can use for the rest of my life
I loved the class. Very funny and helpfull.
By far the best teacher i've ever had. He's so passionate towards his job and helping his students out. He will get you out of your comfort zone, put you on blast, and make you see things in yourself that you never saw. Extremely recommend him.
Mr.Soto is a great teacher, he will make sure you are engaged in his class. He makes sure to apply the lecture into our everyday lives.He is very energetic and always makes time for every single one of his students.
This class helped me to apply the different methods to become a better student through all my classes. Highly recommend other students to take this class, always remember to bring your " Uniform to class and participate during lectures.
Mr. Soto is a one of a kind professor. He has such a fun personality and his charisma will win you over. Not only is he passionate about his student's success, his classes are helpful and will help you put everything into perspective when it comes to real life situations.
Professor Soto is one of the most charismatic and passionate teachers. He knows when to have fun, but he is also very professional. Don't go into the class expecting an easy A. You will have to work and expect to be called on to answer questions. Soto definitely goes out of his way to better his students whether they know it or not.
Mr. Soto is Mr. Soto. He is an amazing instructor who goes far beyond out of his way to help you. But just know that he cares so much that he WILL NOT let you slack off. Despite that, he pushes you to a level that you never imagined. He is truly an amazing professor, counselor, and friend. If you put in the effort, he can change your life.
Though some may say Mr. Soto's class is difficult, in my opinion he simply prepares you well for the future. I encourage anyone who is a serious student to take his classes. He provides a good mix of jokes along with class discussions that evoke meaningful conversations.
Mr. Soto is a great professor!He is funny and understanding. I really recommend his class. Also,if your going to take his class be prepared to do alot of work!!! Slackers are not welcome.
Wow. Amazing teacher. Prepares you for the outside world. Life changing class. Recommened for all.
Mr. Soto is an amazing professor. He always manages to connect the day's lesson with the outside world making it easier to comprehend the material. He's motivating and will definitely keep you awake! There's no downtime, he takes his class seriously but knows how to have fun at the same time. He has high, but reasonable expectations. Overall, I truly enjoyed taking his class. Strongly recommend this class!
Great class, very helpful only if you think you need help in organizing your life in school. The class is pretty simple, doesn't require too much work, and basically requires commen sense to pass the class
An amazing teacher, helps develop plans in a productive way that is directly relevant with the textbook, Mr. Soto is very engaging and requires you to be engaged. Very interesting class with group discussions that incorporate ideas from all students. This class implements great habits for success in education and for your future. Recommend!!
He is understanding and helpful. Be also very strict so take the class seriously.
This class is not easy at all but in the end everything you learn is helpful and very applicable to school and life. Professor is really enthusiastic and passionate about his career. He will do his best to make sure that every student succeeds.
Mr. Soto is an excellent professor. He's dedicated and gives his all when he is teaching. I highly recommend GUI-47 with Mr. Soto!
Soto is a great instructor. He genuinely cares about the success in his students. I recommend taking his course for those students who are serious and want the best out of the Guidance course. Homework and Participation is key to success in his classes!
Really passionate
This class was hard on homework but easy on the test
Both of these classes were required enormous amount of homework but tests are easy due to all the focus on the homework we need to have
Mr. Soto is quite a character. I honestly believe that he cares WAY TOO MUCH. He is an amazing guy! His class can change your life, but you have to put in the work. If you slack off, you won't gain anything. I think that the most amazing part of his class is how he makes us teach ourselves life lessons by interaction with each and every student!
Soto is my ABSOLUTE favorite teacher at MVC. He is SO PASSIONATE. Every class was like a motivational seminar. He genuinely cares about your success. Textbook/class-participation heavy. Lots of hw. Study for tests. BRING YOUR "UNIFORM" OR YOU WILL GET EMBARRASSED. You WILL talk in front of the class, no avoiding it. But it's okay. he's great!
Mr. Soto is a great individual. I truly trust his knowledge and skills. A very powerful man. I acknowledge his intelligence and awesome behavior. This class is only as easy as you make it out to be. The experience in his class was intriguing. I really enjoyed his class. Mr. Soto if your reading this I really appreciate everything you have done.
One of the Best professors I've ever had. Very passionate
One of the best teachers. Guarantee you will enjoy his class. Very dedicated to his work. Has high expectations for his students.
Amazing professor. Very energetic and humorous. He is very helpful and you will never be bored in his class. Although he is rather strict about how he wants everything done, it doesn't ruin the class.
Great professor. He is going to be hard on you but it's because he wants what is best for you. He brings you to reality. Life is not easy and neither is his class. You can either suck it up, show up, and do the work to the best of your ability or you could give up. Give him a chance. This is how true teachers who care teach.
Great class to take.
He is an amazing instructor and motivational speaker. His class is very helpful when it comes to life planning and by the time you leave the class, you are walking out the door with much more confidence in yourself going into the professional world. MrSoto is great and I recommend his class to everyone.
Mr. Soto is an amazing professor. He is unorthodox but he makes a point to always have your attention. He will strong arm you to do better and he won't let sit through his class without participating. His homework is easy if a bit tedious. His test are easy enough if you study. Overall a great professor who loves what he does.
Mr. Soto loves his job and is inspiring to most students. his whole class is really trying to make you grow up and teach you life lessons which I feel he goes a little overboard but he gets his point across. there is a lot of homework, it's easy but tedious. he forces you to participate which good, it brings people that are shy out of their shell.
Mr. Soto was a very helpful instructor, his class was very helpful, he will guide you step by step, and he expects you to so your best, I will definitely recommend this class to any upcoming Freshman.
excellent teacher, very helpful, and passionate about his job.
Mr. Soto is an excellent professor. He is very energetic and passionate. He has high expectation for all of his students. Make sure you come prepare to learn in his class. Thank You Mr. Soto for all your help above and beyond.
Great professor he gives out a lot of work but you definetly do learn from his class. I strongly recommend this class to college students.
Unbelievably energetic, a bit hard at first but once you get to know him you will enjoy the class a lot more. A lot of work, but its definitely worth it.
MR. Soto is a very helpful teacher, he makes you participate and gives you plenty of work to keep you busy. i really loved his class.
This teacher is great. he clarifies and articulates his lessons and has everyone participate. He makes you come out of your shell if you are shy. He also gives out a lot of easy homework but it is tedious. He is very energetic so it's hard to fall asleep in his class.
Great Teacher! So involved and enthusiastic!
Mr. Soto is an Excellent Professor. I'm thankful that I got a chance to have Mr. Soto. I think it was the perfect professor to make the transition from High School to College. He was energetic, stern, down to earth, and supportive. I feel that most of what the lessons discussed in class will be very effective in and out of college.
Easily one of the best professors I have had, probably ever. He can find the best out of you and bring it out in a strong yet profesional manner. Workload is manageable and not too hard if you are comfortable with yourself. Being social is a must in this class and is actually encouraged, making it a fun and eventful time every class meeting.
One of the most energetic professors ever. He is very helpful and often keeps people's spirits afloat. I would recommend this professor if you really want to improve and mold yourself into an authentic master student. Just make sure you pay attention in his class though.
Great Professor to have gives tips and skills that you will carry on for life while also clarifying the book and giving life examples. Very energetic and eccentric teacher will always remember him and the class.
One of the best classes I have ever taken. He is an energetic and lively professor. He enjoys what he does and is very good at explaining the material. He brings out the best in his students.He will mold you into a master student. It was an honor to take his class, it is an experience I will never forget.
Seriously the best professor ever! So energetic and helpful. He does all he can to make you pass, he will not let you fail! It's a workload in his class but nothing you can't accomplish. Everything he says is meaningful! Be sure to elaborate and participate.
Awesome teacher! So energetic, and never fails to keep each student on the edge of their seat! Very helpful I do not regret taking his class. A lot of work but nothing that can't be done. Again awesome teacher!
Thought this class was pointless, but boy was I wrong. I learned much more than managing my class time. I learned more about myself and who I wanted to be and what I wanted to do. He really makes you push yourself to do the best. He might come off as rude, but don't take it personally. Work was intense, but do-able. 10/10 would recommend.
I'm not going to lie... at first I thought this class was going to be a waste of my time, but I was wrong, I learned so much in this class. On the other hand, he is very helpful, and caring for his students. The work may seem as a lot, but in reality, it isn't, he's just preparing his students for reality. GREAT TEACHER, I definitely recommend him.
I am so thankful for taking his class. He is by far one of the best teachers ever. Without him, I'd be lost.
Mr. Soto is the funniest and well prepared, over achiever professor i've met so far. He is very enthusiastic and energetic towards his students and this class was a success in my opinion and soon you will say the same.
This class was amazing and Mr. Soto is a really amazing teacher.
Great professor! stay on top of all your work, study, pay attention, and participate willingly!!!!
very inspirational. he will push you, only to your full potential. he admires participation, and truly cares about his students. his methods are uncoventional, but this keeps it interesting. Outstanding professor.
He was very humorous and brought life into the classroom. He was dedicated to not letting you fail and was very understanding. He cares about your education and will do all that he can to help you with it. Excellent man.
Took GUI48 with him, now completed GUI47. I have never taken a professor like him, he's great. The work may be a lot of work if you're not used to typing, but overall easy class. Study guides provided, IF you show him you're prepared to have it. I really reckoned taking him, he's hilarious and cares about his students passing. Great professor!
BEST teacher I've had in a LONG time. highly recommend to new students. such a wonderful person. a little tough but great motivator. you have to want to pass & apply yourself if not he really won't tolerate you NO free rides! final pres. a little nerve wrecking but you'll do fine if you're prepared. I would take his class again if given the chance!
He try to get you to get the most out of the class he is the best teacher ever!
He is really light hearted and he just has a fun spirit and tries to adopt it into his teaching. His lectures aren't planned out. Participation is a must. He is really easy to talk to and get to know, and approachability isn't am problem with him. Although there is a lot of work, it's not difficult.
Honestly the best professor out there he is someone who cares about his students and loves being a teacher has the best personality ever helps you out so much there is not one bad thing that I could possibly say about him or the class
Teacher it beyond great. He changes stuends eduacational expiences. Potive and Optimitic. .
He is the BEST Professor ever ! Energetic, great humor sense. It keep you interested in the class. Be on time and do your Homework . Simply : Great .
Mr. Soto is amazing. Energetic and definitely involved. You must participate in his class, there is no other option. He has transformed me from that student in the corner that never talks, to participating regularly. I definitely appreciate all of his efforts in making each student feel that they can and will do better for themselves.
One of the best teachers you could ever take. He is a very inspirational person who takes chances and helps others take risks that would never take risks before. Not only does he teach the normal lesson every day, but he keeps you engaged with his dynamic high energy, and makes you feel important and makes us prepared for the real world.
Professor Salvador Soto is very demanding of his students to put forth their best effort and bring out their full potential, so preparation and participation are KEY in this class. He is energetic and passionate when teaching and working with his students, and sets clear expectations from the very first day of class.
Professor Soto is a great professor for those students that have a hard time staying engaged in class. He sets the standards high but there simple. We had some laughs and cries in the class but it felt like familiy. The professor an classmates pushing each other to do better. Excellent professor hope to meet more just like him in the future.
The professor is amazing! He gives the the tough love you need to come out of your shell and find the confidence you need to discover what you want to do in life. He is very interactive and expects participation. He is worth taking because he knows what he is doing to connect with students. Homework is clear and cut nothing out of the ordinary.
