This teacher is really cool. the class is super easy. i highly recommend him. make sure you pay attention when you review the exams and you will be ok
I really enjoyed the Dr's class. He knew his stuff and had a lot of travels and experience to back it up. I learned a lot of history and the music it's associated with. Great class.

AWESOME TEACHER, SUPER COOL ATTITUDE, VERY FRIENDLY, VERY FUN, WORK IS SUPER EASY, IT'S AN ELECTIVE OF MUSIC IT'S NOT ROCKET SCIENCE, TAKE HIS CLASS, HE'S AN AWESOME TEACHER!
greeeeeeeeeeeattttt teacher. Very friendly and noble. the tests are kinda hard therefore you must study with the textbook . He is very funny.
GREAT PROFESSOR. HE IS FUNNY, INTELIGENT. AND REALLY KNOWS HIS MATERIAL. A GREAT PIANO PLAYER. I WOULD RECOMMEND HIM TO ANYBODY WHO WANTS TO LEARN ABOUT MUSIC. HE MAKES HIS CLASS INTERESTING AND FUN. VERY EASY TO LEARN THE MATERIAL
He was such a sweetheart. I had him for jazz and populaar music and I'm having him again for music appreciation. He is super sweet. He tells you what to study. He plays the paino in class (he's amazing). He puts on videos to better understand the material. He was one of my favorite teachers. Fun and easy class.
This professor is AWESOME! He's a kind, wonderful, and intelligent person. Super nice to his students, remembers every one of them. Absolutely loves music and loves teaching it. Use your book, it's super easy! Gives extra credit. One of the easiest classes I've taken. He's GREAT!
Great Professor, He is kind and helpful. I loved it:)
He is the very best of the best!!! If you want to get rid of "Humanities" section from your Credit Audit, you should take MUL1010 and MUL2380 with him. Super nice, happy, intelligent, funny, extra credit. AWESOME! Thanks profe!
professor sergio is soooo nice! his class is very easy & fun. he really knows alot about music and he really knows how to teach music. he plays piano in class, and plays youtube videos for you to understand the material. your gonna love this class and your gonna love him. :)
The class is soooo much fun! You listen to music and he's truly a fun teacher. You learn so many new things and your love of music will only grow. <3
Great professor, very kind and help students a lot !! The class is easy..
Took online course. Good instructor but the tests were extremely difficult. If your not a good test taker dont do it. Quick responses and posts grades quickly.
Very entertaining class... just took the 6week summer A course aned passed with an A+. Be ready to remember songs and composers while taking tests, but other than that, the class is easy. He's a very awesome and dedicated teacher. Recommend him to anyone who loves music :)
easy class, good professor replies to emails fast, fair grading, can see progress online 24/7. u WILL need the book, a lot of reading which can seem a bit overwhelming if u r taking other classes. Every week u will have to read a chapt & a test, easy if u do test review & xtra credt, make sure you do all the assignments & you will pass.
One of the best music prof at mdc!! Definetely reccommend him for both music courses he makes class really interesting and fun, especially popular music in America course! Take him you will not regret it!!
Online class is hard if you do not have a background in music. Weekly quizzes, 4 small writing assignments, a concert report, proctored midterm and final. Great professor though, answers e-mails very quickly and makes everything clear. If you take this online class, do your work! Unless you are a music guru this is not a slack class.
Great professor and really helpful, he wants you to do your best and learn about culture and music.
Super easy class; he's very easy going, doesn't make it hard at all. If you want to pass MUL1010 or MUL2380 take him! You can pass the class with your eyes closed. He makes sure you pass, if you're failing he'll tell you exactly what to do in order to get an A. Take him you won't regret it! :)
Great professor! I took this class online and it was simple and fun. It is a lot of work though so don't just think its peaches and cream. You have to read about 3 chapters every week and many quizzes, tests and posts. Also you have to visit a museum. About 5 essays are also necessary. But he is great!
He's hilarious and fun to talk to. The class always has a good vibe to it. Best professor for music hands down.
Took him for MUL1010 as well, and he is by far my favorite professor at MDC. I actually look forward to going to class. Very easy!
For me he is a good teacher. I know hi is a good teacher because he has teacher blood in his vains. Music class is not an easy class, but I pass the clas with A because Professor Gonzalez encourage me and I did the best in class. Thanks Professor Gonzalez.
He is the best professor I've ever had! Very sweet, funny, and genuinely cares about his students. I wish I could take every class with him!
Awesome professor hes funny and knows hes material.
Awesome teacher! I took his blended course, met twice in class and then had an assignment online every week. Super easy just do all online assignments and attend 1 concert. Test were online. He's super sweet, nice, and funny. Always liked going to his class. Gonzalez knows what he's talking about.
This professor is funny and you won't be bored at all. The class is super easy and he helps you if you have a bad grade
Professor Gonzalez is a total sweet heart! This class does have a good amount of work so it's not for those looking for a SUPER easy A. There's TONS of extra credit, you have three weeks to do three chapters which include 1 discussion, a quiz and he gives a study guide. 1 proctored midterm, final online. GREAT communicator and really concerned!
One of the best professor in Miami Dade College. I took his class online. He is very organized, One quiz per chapter. Midterm protected, and final online. 2 super interesting essays about a museum, and a play. I really enjoyed the class. Thanks professor Gonzalez.
He is there for you and very understanding love the class and will recommend and he is a very energetic it makes your day a :)
Professor Gonzalez is great! be ready to read to pass the weekly quizzes. There's TONS of extra credit, make sure to do the study guides they help with the quizzes and tests. You will have 2 essays 1 at a museum and the 2nd performance show. Don't worry there are clear guidelines to them. responds quickly to to emails too. would take again.
I really enjoyed his online class. He is always for you via email and is fair grading.
Great professor, would take it again.
It was an online course so my interaction with Professor Gonzalez was limited. He always answered back promptly and was helpful to myself and my classmates. It was a lot of work, but if you get all the reading done and pay close attention to the study guides it's easy to pass. And in case you are struggling, there is extra credit galore.
This professor is very knowledgeable and inspirational. He has a very uplifting and charismatic personality. He loves to be funny and can be very silly at times which helps engage the class. Honestly he made it very bareable to wake up at 7am to get through traffic and arrive at 9am. He is very understanding too, he helped me make up a test.
This professor was amazing and knows much about the subject. Makes class fun and entertaining. Always keeps the class engaged in conversations about the topic. Loved this class!
Amazing teacher and person, perfect lectures, loves his job, enjoys the material, makes you enjoy the class and hence pass the class. We need more teachers and people like him in the world.
You have discussions and quizzes for each chapter but they are not hard. If you have questions you can email and he will respond within 24 hours. Only have a proctored midterm and he gives study guides. Taking this professor again!
I love Dr Gonzalez, he is the best professor . He leaves good feedback and is very inspirational and always have good stories. As long as you got the book you will pass. No midterm, 2 papers, and a proctored final. It is a very easy class to take. I will definitely take this class again.
He likes to give online testes so you can do it on your house with the book. BOOK IS A MUST, the questions are found EASILY in the book. There are listening quizzes. He makes you write 2-4 papers depending on the term and 1-3 of them are concerts critics. If you miss a due date he will reopen it for you. Obtaining an A you will if you pay attention
Hands down, most interesting and entertaining, knowledge filled class I have ever taken (142 credits to date). Easy to follow availability and due dates. Easy A if you put in the effort. Not the generic discussion, response, quiz theme as most online courses. Interesting and unique assignments. Awesome personalized feedback after each assignment.
Just do the assignments and you will be fine. Mandatory final and I got A's on all my tests and quizzes and that final was extremely hard! Especially the written portion because he never taught us that. However since I did really well on everything else I still got an A at the end.
This is the best Humanities class to take if you are someone with a busy hectic schedule! You have a discussion and a quiz due for each chapter. You have one Midterm thats only based on two chapters. He gives extra credit, a chance to make up your work, and study guides for everything. He also has two visitation assignments that are super easy too.
This professor is the best, take him and you will pass and actually get to like music his class is just on point. You gotta take him
One of my best professors this semester. He is amazing and helpful.
Great teacher and he's very helpful! Loved this class. Make flash cards that helped me in the final.
Very nice and funny. You get graded by online homework. Always willing to give extra credit.
Great Professor. Lots of extra credit. Superrrrrr easy to get an A with him. Exams online. Just be prepared to write
The professor made the class really fun. He did assign excessive homework but nothing too difficult. You need to attend two concerts and write two critiques. One solo presentation and a group project.
One of the best professors at Dade, He is a super cool and funny guy who just wants to share his passion of music. Expect online assignments, but nothing crazy difficult. Exams are done online at home, guaranteed A. He will do anything to make sure you pass his class, with your effort of course. Take him!
This professor is great! If you have the chance to take his class don't miss out. He truly cares for his students, leaving positive comments on your work. Easy A if you do all the assignments, and if you miss any assignments he allows you to make them up for full credit. I took him for HUM 1020 online. Quick to answer emails, and overall easy class
Idk the prof bc it was online. but get ready to work your ass off. but he does provide you with A LOT of extra credit opportunity. the assignments were easy, just you had to work for it and its very time-consuming. I missed a ton of assignments and still passed with a B. usually takes about 2 days to reply to your message. but great class. thank u
Such an easy class, text book is not needed. Have to write a rap at the end of the semester and he will play it in class. Very embarrassing.
Taking this Humanities class with Dr. Gonzalez was a life-changing experience, I loved it! . You can really tell he is passionate about the subject and tries to keep you motivated at all times. There is a lot of reading involved, but that is not something odd when you are taking online courses. Do not miss work assignments, it is hard to catch up.
Awesome guy lots of work but great professor if anything so far he's my favorite professor
Great professor, helps you a lot and gives lotsss of extra credit!!!
Prof. Gonzalez was an amazing teacher. I wish he taught other humanity classes. He gave a lot of work (not a ridiculous amount) a lot of reading but I enjoyed it and learned a lot.
Professor Gonzalez is such an amazing professor. He is super patient with his students and is always willing to help them out when they need it.
Professor Gonzalez was such an amazing professor!!! he is super funny and he cares about his students. He gives a lot of homework but they're not hard and he takes the time to explain anything that you have doubts on!! I seriously recommend you take his class!! you wont regret it at all
He loves music and he will make you feel the same way! Amazing and easy profesor
Best professor ever, I really recommend him. He is super funny and kind, you will learn a lot about music and get some culture as well.
Great professor, but does not play around when it comes to turning in your assignments. There is a museum visit and paper, if you dont do it, you will not pass the class. He will give you chances to make up missed work. Gives good feedback, and is easily accessible, I recommend him.
Amazing teacher! definitely a lot of class work but nothing you can't handle. Attendance is important, I wouldn't miss more than once. All the classwork and homework contain the same questions the test have and the test are open book. Good class, great teacher.
Great experience!
He was awesome, he got along with us and was helpful. He made us all feel welcome to the class and comfortable.
This class was a complete disappointment. This was supposed to be an easy class especially the fact that it is an online elective. This class is EXTREMELY HEAVY ON WORK LOAD if you are planning to take this class thinking it will be easy it is the complete opposite. He requires you to go to plays and museums and write papers about them. Overall bad
I took this class for a mandatory credit. The syllabus is not clear. If you do one of the visitation assignments you get an automatic F in the class. It is a work load for an online class. I would not take any of his classes in the future.
Really great professor. Not a difficult class. The assignments are easy, make sure you do them. He gives a LOT of chances to help raise your grade. Also make sure you attend the two concerts. Overall he's really lenient and very funny.
I took him for both MUL1010 and MUL2380! I love this professor so much and he really is amazing. You do not need to buy the textbook, he uploads whatever content that you need from the book on blackboard. He is extremely funny and is always positive everyday. I'm so glad I took him and I'm sad that I have already taken all his classes...
He is so passionate about music and is so happy to teach people how to appreciate it. I really recommend you to take him for music appreciation.
The class isnt as easy as people on the reviews say it is. He gives an exaggerated amount of work to do. Dont recommend you take this class if your taking multiple classes and work.
Professor Sergio gives A LOT of easy work. If you are against doing a lot of homework then why are you in college? He is a good professor, definitely knows his music background and besides, you will also learn about the past. Great class, definitely guarantee!!! Plus, you don't have to buy the book! He posts PDF of the chapters.
He's pretty good, homework every Friday. the hardest thing is listening quizzes, and you must attend concerts and write about them. Also if you get an 87% or higher you don't have to take the final
Assignments are an easy A. About 3 or 4 online tests but once again, they are pretty simple. Show up to class as much as you can and you will be good. He really makes the class entertaining and you learn a lot of cool stuff about music and different artists. He is a really great teacher. I highly recommend you take his class.
First time I ever take an online class and it was the best! Professor Gonzalez class wasn't difficult at all to navigate in BB. He always answers any messages you sent him in a timely manner. Every week there is 3 assignments due every week. There is two visitation papers you need to do as well! Overall, I would recommend to take his class!!
I would take this professor a hundred times again, he is very caring for his students, the assignments are due weekly and they are pretty clear, but if you have any questions he responds his emails with the solution for your concern. Take this professor, you won't regret it!
Y'all really out here hyping this man up. He's not all that. I PERSONALLY found his lectures extremely boring, but that's just me. expects you to have the memory of a genius in order to pass audio and song quizzes whilst remember featured artists, composers, etc. Changes HW after you have already completed it so he wastes your time, etc. Not my fav
BEST PROFESSOR EVERRR!!! I WOULD definitely take him again, super caring, lets you do assignments after due dates, super funny, tests are mostly taken at home, gives about one assignment weekly, final is optional if you have an 87% or higher! (EASIEST COURSE EVER)-promise
I took this class online even though I hate onlines classes. He give us a lot of homework but it was well organized and always giving you greats feedbacks. This class is an easy A if you do the whole job. He was always very responsives via phone or email. Loved this class, definitely recommended.
Professor Gonzalez is an amazing teacher that really cares about his students. He gives a lot of homework but if you manage to do it, you won't be having any problem passing this class, especially because they are very easy to do.
I have never rated a professor but after taking this one I felt I had to ! This was the best class I have ever taken in 3 years of being in Miami Dade! This was my first online class and I am so glad I took it with this professor! He is extremely caring, always sends emails, leaves assignments available even after they are due! Very easy class !
Professor Gonzalez truly cares about his students. However, he makes you work for your grade. Which is completely understandable. Although, you are assigned a good amount of homework it is easy to manage and helps with your overall grade. If you for whatever reason are not able to do the assignment he does give you a secondary opportunity.
Honestly, one of the best professors I've ever had the pleasure of learning from. His classes are not difficult and he really cares about his students. The work is only able to be failed if you absolutely do not care or pay attention. Catch him on a good day and you might watch an educational movie in class. Can't wait to take him again.
The class was online. He used connect, which requires for you to buy the book and do work, but gives you a week to do things. He gives extra credit on every chapter. Gives good feedback. Tests are on quizlet.
This professor is amazing. You have to take him if you are taking HUM1020. I've had only a few professors so caring like him in my life. He cares about his students and give feedbacks on homeworks or participation. He is always reminding you about what's due. I learned a lot in this class. And I hope this professor gets a raise soon. He is the best
This teacher wad the best Ive ever had his feedback was amazing he helped in everything and responded to all messages as quickly as possible. he is well respected. Yes I will take him all over again. His work is legit if you stay focus. the classmates were amazing at feedbacks and responses, glad and happy I took this class and learned so much.
Nicest professor ever, i took this class for the summer during the pandemic and he was a real gem. His assignments were very easy and I actually learned alot. If you have a high grade you don't have to do a final. He didn't make us buy the book and he responds fast to emails.
As someone who took this class a second time but online, THIS PROFESSOR IS THE ONE!!!! Professor Gonzalez was really nice, gives extra credit, the work is really easy!! I will be breaking down the ONLINE course for you guys(: 1 PROCTORED MID TERM. 1 AT HOME FINAL. 15 CH LESSONS, QUIZZES, DISCUSSION POST (WHICH U CAN CHOSE 1 OUT OF 5 OPTIONS)
He is one of the best professors in MDC, he gives a lot of homework but not that hard, the listening quizes are the hares't one
Took this class during my first semester and in a pandemic, he always responded to emails, class schedule is very organized and clear. There is a good amount of work but it is totally doable. The class is interesting
The class was very easy. Lots of connect hw but easy and doable. The midterm was proctored and the final was not. Very organized with the chapters. Super easy A.
Professor Sergio made the class very easy. All the homework was on connect and was not hard at all. The midterm was proctored and the final was not. The course had a great layout which made it simple to navigate through.
Great professor very passionate about his area of teaching Lots of work but a easy grader A good amount of tests but they are quite easy and doable
Take him if you can! he is literally the best professor ever , not even joking i barely like anything that has to do with history and he makes it really fun and is very undersanding.
amazing professor, he likes to teach and makes his students engage with the content. gives a lot of work but easy and enjoyable.
If you have to take Humanities, take Professor Gonzalez. He is great and flexible. He responds in a timely manner whenever you email him. He gives great feedback on all the work you turn in.
Took this professor online, at first seemed like a lot only because the gradebook had a lot of things to do and that's only because he gives out extra credit. The packback & the chapter connect quiz is bit annoying but the quiz the midterm and final is easy & the final is not proctored. He is easy to contact and if you have any issues he will help
He is a magnificent professor, you will learn a lot from this class. This class is a breeze and it is fairly simple even if you do not have any knowledge of music yet. If you need an elective, I recommend choosing this professor and class.
This professor gives many extra credit opportunities, and is noticeable that he cares for all his student to pass. he does have more or less a sufficient amount of work in his class, but nothing over the top. Really nice professor. Somewhat easy. One proctored midterm.
Professor Sergio is so fun, caring, and an awesome person, he makes humanities easy and fun to learn, just make sure you do all your homework, show up in class, and read. Easy A, he tries to make you relax before class, such an amazing teacher.
Favorite Professor. Truly a great human and born to teach. He will make sure to assist you and address any concerns or questions you may have. Funny, respectful, entertaining and caring. Take his class in person, he will play the piano for you. Will do the most he can for you to pass if you show that you care and you do your part by doing homework.
This professor, literally, is the best professor I've met, not to mention his quality as a human being. He really cares about his students, and he was an absolute master of the topic. Easy tests, easy essays of 500 words or less, and a super-easy non-proctored final. I cried writing the goodbye discussion post... Best person ever.
This class was easy. Textbook needed. Assignments done on connect as well as chapter quiz for every chapter along with packbacks due every tuesday. Midterm based on 2 chapters. Didn't find the work to be hard at all and was an interesting class.
Entertaining and easy to learn, loves to play the piano
Professor Gonzalez is the best. His class is well structured and interactive. Weekly, there were only 4 assignments due which included a quiz, a study guide, a discussion, and connect questions through the book. Theres one easy project due, a proctored midterm and a non proctored final. If you study the guides, youll pass. Take this professor!!!!
Super caring, funny, and human Prof. The classes are fun and interactive. A fair amount of HW but it's all very easy. Loads of extra credit options. We had to write a short paper as a mini-project. To get the most out of the class, engage with the prof and students and you will be sure to have a laugh. Easy A!
The negative side is only tons of paper. Like too much sometimes. But the rest is excellent. A lot of extra credits opportunity. Interesting lecture, funny jokes. He is a great man, I wish him all the best.
He's one of the top, best teachers I've ever had. His classes and performances were really interesting. He gives extra credit and make up work so it's helpful if your grade gets low. He gives a fair amount of hw but just do them on time, and you'll do good. He makes the class enjoyable and easy to learn. Best humanities teacher, take his class!
The course was simple but remained interesting and lively. Prof. Gonzalez constantly communicates with students with updates on their class grades and progress. His course work consisted of Smartbook assignments, quizzes, Packback questions, and a proctored midterm. If you want to pass this course without any issues, take this professor.
This class was a breeze, such an amazing teacher! I actually learned a lot in this class and I didn't think I would like it at first. The midterm is proctored, but the final is not and he gives a lot of extra credit. As long as you do all the work you will pass the class with flying colors!
He makes his classes super interesting since he shows videos so that we understand better. He is super funny, and enjoys teaching. His class is super easy; you have to do discussions, connect exercises, quizzes and give your opinion on videos. There is also a midterm exam. Final exam is optional. In each class, there will be hw but nothing hard.
Prof.Gonzalez is Incredible. Class is fun/diverse/eye-opening. Clear explanations/ great videos supporting theory lectures. Some Writing, some reading, but easy. Great Feedback / Caring, accessible. Clear Grading Criteria. Exams are not proctored. Great cultural display of knowledge. You learn, you have fun and you pass. AMAZING PIANIST!!!!!
Super nice professor. As long as you do your assignments you'll pass, plus they're easy.
This professor is a MUST to pick. Super cool professor that allows you to redo assignments later on for a BETTER grade. NO Final, NO midterm, Just one essay on a concert critique. There's lots of NON-Proctored Quizzes, Exams. As well as, discussions and mini assignments that are super easy to complete. NO textbook, NO Access code, best teacher!!
GREAT professor, he is very passionate about the subject and very knowledgeable, and he gives you multiple opportunities to reach a better grade during the semester. He always looks for different ways to make the lecture interactive and listens to his students if they need more time for a certain assignment. He is also an amazing pianist.
really passionate about music and genuinely cares about all of us passing. nothing was proctored, and hw was easy. 1 critique is that he gave last-minute homework every single class due the same day or a few days after & they were very tedious. we could never catch a break. love him as a professor but his class felt unpredictable and unorganized.
This guy is AMAZING! I would give him a 10/10 if I could. You got extra credits, reopen assignments and quizzes, feedback on homework. The lessons well, you will learn actually some pretty cool stuff about arts, paintings, music, and history. Definitely take his class because he is first a kind/caring person, and a great professor.
I took this class online and it was very easy. The workload was not overwhelming at all. He gives tons of extra credit. The only proctored exam was the midterm which was not heavily weighed. He also gives you feedback which is nice. I would recommend him to anyone.
I enjoyed his class we had connect assignments, a quiz, and a discussion every week though.
Professor Gonzales was by far one of the best professors I've come along in my lifetime. He has a clear devotion to teaching the material and to make sure everyone passes. He gave incredible flexibility regarding deadlines. Additionally, attendence is not mandatory but he assigns classwork which you can only submit during class time.
Flexible!!! what more can we ask for. Amazing and very attentive to whether the weekly assignment was missed. Gives two opportunities to do missing assignments. Only midterm is proctered.
I absolutely recommend professor Gonzales if you are interested in the class and are willing to learn. Grades based on participation rather than performance and if you pass the final exam then you basically pass the class. His assignments motivate you to think and actually question certain topics. His lectures were very interesting.
Great professor, a lot of homework but he will help you go through, proctored Midterm but easy, you will pass believe me.
In order to easily pass the class, you have to do the connect exercises and quizzes. There is a mid-term (proctered) and final exam (optional and not proctered). There is only one hard assignemnt which is the Visitation assignment but he can help you out on how to complete it. Overall, very easy class.
I recommend this class to everyone. Professor Gonzalez is great and you can tell he cares about his students. He made the class fun, you can tell he is very passionate (he does send a lot of homework but he gives us a lot of time to complete it and its pretty easy).
I don't regret taking Professor Gonzalez for this class. I took the class in 6 weeks and there were a lot of assignments but they were all easy. He is funny and cares about your grade. We had a lot of fun during his lectures. 100% recommended.
Great class. Midterm proctored, Final non-proctored. One paper but it was not hard, he gives you a layout that makes it easy to set up. Gives extra credit and does make-up weeks. My only regret was not studying more for the midterm, I could have ended with an A instead of a B. Take this class but do not procrastinate on graded HW.
I recommend taking his class and him as a matter of fact. He has a lot of contact with the student.
The nicest most professional professor at MDC. Do yourself a favor and get that easy A. Just review for your tests.
Great teacher and easy assignments. Per week there is one discussion post, quiz, and book assignment (basically just asking questions on a chapter until you answer properly enough). Seemed annoying at first, but very, very easy after a few weeks. Proctored midterm and museum visit assignment were a bit more difficult, but no biggie. Take this class
I've had this professor twice for both MUL1010 and MUL2380 and I can say he's easily one of the best professors out there. Not only was this course easy, it was also fun. If you need an elective to take, please take this one.
Professor Gonzalez is by far the best professor I've ever had. I highly recommend taking his HUM1020 course. It involves a fair amount of work, but if done on time, it's very doable. I finished with an A. He is very caring and understanding. He offers quite a bit of extra credit if needed throughout the term.10/10 professor.
I loved this professor. If you do the work, you should be able to pass. There is one proctored midterm and a not proctored final. There is a visitation project, but he is not a strict grader. He genuinely cares about his students and constantly sent emails making sure that everyone was doing well.
best gen ed professor that I have had by far.
Professor Gonzalez makes the class enjoyable with his engaging lectures and genuine care for students. The workload is manageable, and Unstuck ai proved helpful for study prep. Definitely recommend this class.
Anyone who needs a humanities credit I highly recommend Professor Gonzalez. There is a lot of reading involved for each chapter. He provides plenty of online material and videos that make the learning more interesting. Professor Gonzalez offers multiple options for extra credit each module. Which makes it easy to achieve an A in the class.
Very kind and professional, for online he gave one homework assignment and a packback (discussion) post weekly, and chapter quizzes which was not bad at all. Proctored midterm and unproctored final. Your grade would rely most on the midterm and the museum visit essay he requires which was only ~700 words required. Not as hard as I thought. Take him
One of the best professors I've ever had. He truly cares about students and teaches amazing classes. There's a lot of homework, but he's understanding. The class has a proctored midterm, a non-proctored final, and a visitation project. He explains everything clearly, and it's not hard. Highly recommend!
Decent amount of work. Prepare for the listening quizzes the most. He was a great professor, very knowledgeable and understandable about the subject. He was always open to talking to students and understanding about situations. There is a concert critique at the end of the semester but he has a concert and also provides other resources. Great prof
Professor Gonzalez is an amazing professor. His teaching is incredible and very interactive. The grades are very easy and he is extremely lenient with grades. 10/10 would take this class again.
There is no better teacher than this, he is very concerned about the students and enjoys that his students have a good grade.
This class was amazing. He only gives 3 HW's for an entire week, which realistically can get done in 2-3 hours. He offers many extra credit assignments, so if you're worried about not achieving a grade good enough, you can use these to help boost your grade. He's so caring, and if you need to take this class, TAKE IT WITH PROFESSOR GONZALEZ!!!
Good teacher. It's important to know that there are at least four to five assignments each week. He responds quickly. Despite the fact that there are several assignments, they aren't that complicated.
Professor Gonzalez really cares about his students, he's fun and patient. It's a humanities class, which requires a lot of activities, so he assigns between 2 and 4 activities per week, but they are not difficult to complete.
Professor Gonzalez is very chill and nice. Very lecture heavy, 3-hour online class. Make sure to be ready to participate. Make sure to complete every assignment, they are all easy, but he assigns A LOT.
He's a very kind man and he is really passionate about what he does! If you don't mind staying most of the class time, he is awesome!
He's very passionate about music and is an amazing teacher. He's very interactive and discussion heavy. However, he assigns a lot of homework, and the classes last up to 3 hours without many breaks. Despite all that, he's an amazing and understanding teacher in regard to absences and late work along with general discussions about music.
Overall, the class covers a lot of material and he always assigns test after teaching the material. However, most of the tests are taken by yourself outside of class. Participation is veryy mandatory! But he's pretty nice about it. Moreover, he rounds up grades so like an 88% would end up in an A. Super nice professor and easy class!
This teacher is so nice, he lovesss participation. If u take his class on MDC Live he will call u out to do things like reading small paragraphs or to answer simple questions. He is very passionate about music and his assignments are easy. If u have a 87% or higher in the class by the end of the course u are not obligated to take the final.
There were textbooks but they were provided through PDFs. Super interesting class. Had a lot of fun. Delightful teacher. Understanding and very flexible. Fun lessons but the class encompasses so much that you oftentimes find yourself relying on the slides and PDFs. Would recommend him to anybody and everybody I know.
Sergio Gonzalez is a phenomenal professor who keeps lectures interesting and really likes student input, don't be shy. If you pay attention and participate, the class is easy. He's very forgiving (I had several missing assignments at the end of the year, and he let me redo them all). Always open to questions. I'd gladly take another class with him.
