great teacher, highly recommended his tests are easy and lectures are very interesting. you will never get bored and will actually enjoy taking his class. Great teacher!!!!
awesome teacher the best
NO BOOK, class is fun and he is real cool, down to earth. Took an exam last week, completely over class notes. Take him for history I&II won't regret.
Very easy professor. Bieng history my weakest subject I managed to get a B+. Attendance is not mandatory, except when taking a quiz... TIP: Dont miss quizzes, they are easy.
Mr. Gomez he is a good professor very helpful when it comes to the grades I wanted to drop his class cause I thought I was failing and he told me come on stay so I did and I ended up passing with a C yeah because I screw Up all semester but still his class is very easy and also he is more of a friendly instructor I would recomend him.
professor Gomez is an awesome professor. he gave us three exams and one of them was a take home, 4 or 5 quizzes, and we had to type out the vocabulary words for each chapter. his class was pretty easy and class was usually over within 30 or 40mins.
GREAT TEACHER! took summer 1301 course he was awesome! Funny helpful easy! As long as you DO what he tells you to do (homework, quizzes, study for tests, write these notes), then you should get a really great grade! NOT boring, & I don't even like hist. Quizzes were on the textbook vocabulary, and there were 4 tests. Take notes, LISTEN, youll do gr
he's a joke, i didnt like him at all his test are long and essay form not very nice either.
i took him summerI. it was awesome. short classes but full of information. everything we took as notes was in the tests/exams. used book only for vocabulary. he gives u exactly what to study for test!! super easy class, just study, do your vocab, and show up to take notes. :] loved it.
He's a great professor! I took him for both parts. He let's you take home the first exam and most quizzes. It's a sure A if you put in a little effort.
Mr. Gomez is very interesting and I would reccomend him to anyone. He puts alot of passion into his lectures and he makes it fun. I think he isn't bad looking either.
this professor is a sweetheart. He's super nice! I think he's very humble as well and very down to earth. Definitely take this guy if you want to pass this class.:)
Really good teacher. He made history interesting and the classes were short and sweet. I earned an A. He pretty much gives everything in his lectures that will be in his exams. I recommend you take him. Nice guy!
this teacher is super cool and the class is super easy i hate history before taking this class but this teacher makes you get involved. we never had homeworks just the vocabulary sometimes. you dont have to write essays at all.. i loved the class, super easy :D
Mr. Gomez is the easiest professor. Just show up for class for notes everyday and you will pass his test. He gives extra points for the exams if you show up to the history events in school. People that dont pass his class is because they are lazy.
he is inspiring and extremely passionate about his job. very politically and socially aware, not some manufactured drone. este vato si sabe la onda! 2 thumbs up!
I took his online course. It was fast and fun. I did have problems with the online test system at first and had to retake a exam the teacher was very helpful and walked me throught it. He also gives extra credit!!
guys i always hated to take history class and i never thought i will pass!!! this teacher related to me is the best because he gives a lot and a lot of extra cridet, all what you need dont miss any class and write notes. i did not even buy a book. he teach great keep you always intrested, he is funny and fair. i got A easy
Fun class. All you need is a book called "they called them greasers" and you take quizzes on the chapters of the book. Very easy, yet you learn a lot about the history of Tejanos and Mexicanos in Texas and their interactions with whites before, during, and after the american civil war. Gives ample extra credit opp. so take advantage!
GOOD TEACHER!!!!!
Excellent Teacher. Loved his class. Very helpful just wished he'd teach 1302. I would take in a heart beat. Highly recommend.
fun great teacher is pretty cool..... kinda has his head to high in the air if you know what i mean...if your not in one of his clubs he wont give you the time of day.....
I took this class online... pretty simple. His exams all come from the info he provides you. I recommend him.
Awesome teacher. if you send him an email you will respond to you asap. took him during summer. had all the quizzes and test ready the first day of class. just study his lectures carefully and learn the voc words from the book. if you do that you will get an easy A. also he gives extra credit =)
I enjoyed having him as my teacher. He isn't hard at all, plus he knows his history. He always gives you an opportunity for extra credit and his notes are well thought out. Follow them and you are sure to pass his class!!
I really like his class and I think is easy but when it comes to quizzes and Tests you better read or you will fail the class. He gives lots of extra credit but if you don't read it won't matter because you need to pass most of his test to pass the class.
This class was so easy.... Most of his quizzes and Exams were from his lecture notes. Took him in online and would recommend him to anyone. Too bad he doesnt teach History II.
This is truly a easy class. He highly recommends that you attend class and take notes. The study guides are easy to comprehend and gives a lot of extra credit, which is worth it. He really makes history fun and interesting. I would highly recommend him.
Took Prof Gomez for History 1301 during Summer online. His class has no discussions, just several short quizzes and 3 Exams. Quizzes are based on vocabulary from the Chapters (you need the book) Exams are based on lecture notes he provides. He was slow to respond to email and towards the end he ignored my questions altogether! Still got an A though
The fact that he let's you receive extra credit points for your exam just for attending a speakers talk, is great!! He gives 5, 10 and even 15 points!!
Very nice and helpful professor! I took him for a history 2 hybrid course! Although his class his stupid easy, you learn a lot of history in his class! Don't use your phone in his class because he doesn't like it and he'll call you out:O
Alot of reading from textbook articles lectures n videos . Does give extra credit.
Super funny and i love that he uses everyday mexican slang. His lectures are a must for test hes extremely clear and very helpful if you have any questions. I hated history but he made evrything so fun. Also read the book because you need to further know the material on quizzes. Good with extra credit. AWESOME teacher!!
Worst online class ever taken. The quizzes were easy, the tests were mainly about his lecture notes but they were not given in the correct order. Exam review notes were not at all found in the chapters that were designated for that week. They were found in the lecture notes from previous exams. Would not recommend.
amazing teacher. He gives you the schedule that you will follow throughout the semester and his lectures are a must. Hes very funny and gives extra credit... totally recommended.
I loved this class!
His lectures are amazeballs!!
His lectures are amazing
Horrible! Rude and misleading. He gave me the wrong info on the book needed, he was rude and did not bother to apologize for making me buy two books. Wouldn't give me one extra day on a quiz even though it was his fault I did not have the right book. Also, does not know the meaning of the word oversaw, used in wrong terms in test.
His class was fairly easy, I'm not good in history at all and I got a B in his class. You do need to do the work to pass and he does give a lot of extra credit. I really do recommend him.
Took Hist 1302 online, the grading system was fairly easy to follow. He opens up all the material since day one so if you want to get ahead you can. However, you have to read the book, I never bought it, I just read lecture notes and I would do fair. He give many extra credit points for attending presentations. His class was okay.
This class is based on quizzes and exams. Good thing about him is that he offers a lot of extra credit so take complete advantage of it! Half of the quizzes comes from chapter vocabulary terms and the other half on what you read.. so yes, textbook is a must. Only writing in this class is for extra credit response.
Take his HIST 1 class. I loved this class and his lectures. Never a boring moment! You won't regret. There is assignments but not hard. His exams are tricky though but not hard.
I took history 1302 with this teacher and it was extremely challenging. You need to read if not you wont pass this class i am serious!!!
Took Intro to Mexican American Studies online class with Professor Gomez. He is very cool and gives out extra-credit.
His class is definitely not a walk in the park you really have to come to class and study a lot or you won't pass!!
I Highly Recommend You Take This Instructor For History!! Offers Tons of Extra Credit!! All tests and Quizzes are on Blackboard But You Need To Study Or You Won't Pass!! TAKE HIM!!!!
Take his class, it's easy you just have to attend class for lectures and study. 10 quiz but mostly vocabulary and 10 question true and false. His lectures are clear and he gives a lot of extra credit. You can earn an A if you do all this extra credit.
Easy!!! One quiz a week!! Awesome professor!!!
for us hist 1301 and 1302 i got an A, all exams are online, he gives you study guides and two hours per exam. all answers are on study guide, you might have to read between the lines a bit but it's very easy, if you don't get an A then you need to reconsider going to college. no homework, extra credit offered a few times per semester.
As an online professor he was not very good. I would email him both to his email and using blackboard and he would never respond. I did get one email telling me to message him on BB and he would get back to me later that day. I'm still waiting. The class material is fine. 10 quizzes, 2 exams, and 1 final. True or false questions and some multiples
Took this class online. Only thing I didn't like was the fact that you can't see what exam questions you missed. He doesn't open up the exam for viewing when you finish it. I brought it up to his attention and he suggested maybe after the due date passed he would let us view it but he never did. Once exam is completed it's gone.
Professor Gomez makes the class very fun and you will learn a lot, but you have to read all the chapters. Exams and homework are very easy, all you have to do is go over the notes. You should pass this class with an A. If not, then there's something wrong with you.
Class Was Interesting Very Good Professor . Work Is Easy Vocabulary works and quizzes Book is needed
Took as a hybrid :mandatory attendance; miss a lecture chances are you will get a low grade on tests. Take very good notes! Most of the quizzes are voc; Exams and quizzes are online, but gives little time. Text book is a must. Even though I'm a history major you, my knowledge was not enough."his" opinions matters. His lectures are quick, good luck!
Very easy class, entire class is setup so you can finish it all as soon as you'd like to. Quizzes are easy, straight of lectures and chapters covered. Test study guides are available and everything is straight off the lectures. I registered for HIST1302 immediately with Prof Gomez. He responds pretty quickly but not extremely flexible with issues.
Quizzes and tests are straight off the lecture notes. You can finish the class as soon as you'd like, since he places everything online on the first day. Need to study lecture notes and textbook is a must for definitions.
Loved this class and lectures. Would take his class again. He is not boring. Makes you think of what we were taught in grade school
Took for summer online. Course consists of chapter quizzes from book and Exams from lectures. Quizzes consisted of true and false, exam is a mixture of multiple and true and false. You do get two attempts for the exams which is good. You are also able to finish the class when you want since everything is accessible on the first day of class.
Awesome teacher really funny. I took it Fall 2017 as a Hybrid class which means half online half traditional. You attend class once a week for lectures and all the work is done online. 3/8 quizzes are just to type vocabulary words and email them. The other 5 quizzes have 10 questions. 3 exams and a Final. Extra credit opportunity for every exam!
Took him online for Hist 1301 thinking it was easy, but personally it wasnt. Oh course theres a lot of reading involved. Exams are a bit challenging, so you must ready. But you do get grades for turning in definitions which is super easy. He offered extra credit for all exams. Seemed like a cool guy! Youll definitely learn if you take him!
Victor Gomez is one of the best history professors I have ever taken. His lectures are interesting and fun. I used to dislike history before taking him. Professor Gomez cares about his students grades and provides many extra credit opportunities. He replies very quickly to emails. Highly recommend !!
He is a good professor !! Yes, there is a lot of reading, but assignments are easy and exams are not as hard as you think. I would definitely take him again & I recommend everyone to take a class with him !!
Taken for Mexican American studies & was by far one of the worst professors i have ever had. 8 true or false quizzes 2 exams and the final Quizzes are 20% test 1&2 are 25% and final is 30%. The book he requires us to read is really dense and the questions on the quiz are worded oddly. I recommend making a group chat in order to help each other out
I took hybrid and attended all extra credit opportunities which are anywhere between 10-30 points each. I really enjoyed his lectures, he's passionate about history. He treats everyone equally and as long as you apply yourself you will pass.
Test are easy if you read I would totally take him again!
Summer Course - Online consisted of weekly quizes x 10; Two Exams and a Final. Make sure and read your chapters along with lectures. Lots of Reading involved.
Took his class online during Summer 2. He is strict about his due dates, but gives you more than enough time to complete each section. Stay on top and you could finish the class pretty quickly. We had quizzes, a final exam, and at least three of our quizzes were to type out vocabulary terms. You're given one attempt for each exam or quiz. Easy A.
By far one of the most lecture heavy online classes i have taken. Required textbook seems like it was written by a 70s hippie and his point of view of Chicano history. Quizes (T or F) are full of run-on or incomplete fragments that are distractors. Exams (MC) are exactly the same with over 5 choices. Seemed like an 6th grader made the test. Beware
Took his MexAm Studies class online. EASY A! Everything is laid out for you. Read, take quizzes and read his lectures. He gives 25 extra credit points for all his exams, even the final.
Easy professor
Awesome Professor would definitely take him again. Easy A just do all your work.
Loved his class for summer 2. All class work is provided on day 1. All are about 6 quizzes and 3Exams and final.... easy to pass if you read his lecture notes and push yourself to complete the vocabulary quizzes. But other than that its easy. Helps if you get with other class mates...
Overall his online class for summer II was straightforward and his lectures were easy to understand. If you read his lectures along with reviewing the reviews he gives you for exams you will be good. Make sure you have your textbook ready to use. You definitely need one. Everything is pretty much laid out for you the whole semester.
I took his class in summer 1 and I really loved it. He is straightforward with his exams and quizzes. I felt his class was more about what you learn and how to prepare to be a better student of history. I really loved his class and will take again of possible
he changes his assignments so if you have 4 classes don't get this one since most of the assignments are exams and quizzes
He changed everything on the syllabus. Now his class is harder dont recommend him at all. Too much work and quizzes and exams. Quizzes are written due every week.
Taking his class online currently he gives a 2 page essay quiz every week. Dont recommend if you have more classes. Theirs just too many papers to do. Get another teacher folks.
Im taking this class online and its so hard. His quizzes are due every week and its a two page essay. Are you serious??? Dont recommend this professor at all!!! He use to be less strict over his quizzes. Now he is very strict about his essays.
As a students who has 4 classes and works I think this class is a bit challenging doing a two page essay and reading 3 hours daily isnt working for me. Take another teacher if you work!
He's an awful professor if you work and are a full time student DON'T I repeat DON'T take this class with this professor!!! He makes you read alot and do essays every week!! And he is a hard grader!
Great instructor!
Easy A, nice guy. If you need to take HIST 1301 or HIST 2327, take Mr. Gomez
He is a tough grader!!! Essays are due every week. 2 PAGE ESSAYS. DONt recommend if you work/ have kids. I have kids and its just time consuming. I can barely keep up. Takes so much of my time. He does give extra credit. However, dont recommend.
He basically assigns two page essays about the book. You have to read a lot to do the essays. Dont recommend. Doesnt post your points. Why? I have no idea. Takes some time to reply back. Final grade will be posted at THE LAST MINUTE. Hate that. His a tough grader will give you a ZERO if you didnt do essay correctly. Take another teacher.
I took his hybrid class and loved it. It was early in the morning and his enthusiasm for the subject kept us awake even entertained. I do recommend his classes. For the first time in my short time at STC I think he has been the only one to stick to his syllabus. Oh, and don't miss lecture day. I sort of learned the hard way. Won't regret.
Hes a pretty great teacher, and he gives a lot of extra credit opportunities, so if you arent that great in history you will be covered for the test with the extra credit.i dont like history and i learned a lot from him.
This professor was super engaging and his lectures were almost some sort of must see tv because of how funny and informative he is. Too bad we didn't finish the semester in class because of the virus but he did make the transition very smooth. He helped us by extending deadlines, was very helpful and responded fast. Take him. Won't regret!!!!
Mr. Gomez made everything easy to navigate and gave clear instructions of the expectations. Quizzes were fairly easy and exams were based on the work from the book. You will be ready a lot but all the exams are based on the book. I took as mini-mester and it was very easy!
If you are taking an online course he is your guy!! I took him for Spring 2020 and he gave extra credit and also gave two attempts per quiz and test. I got an A in his class and will be taking Mexican america 2 with him as well. Quizzes and Exam are multiple choice and true or false.
Worst professor ever! Do no take him, his exams and quizzes don't make sense. He says he will give you extra credit on syllabus but ends up not giving you anything.
TAKE HIM!! Very few are as caring and concerned about students like he was. Class is easy but have to read. He is fair and I am taking him again no question.
What I appreciated from this class was he allowed us 2 attempts for quizzes and tests. Lectures were great reads and actually learned and that's because I don't like history. I highly recommend him. He was quick responding emails as well which always is a plus.
I am currently loving his Mex. Am. intro class. He does give 2 attempts and has book available for you to get going. I loved some of his lectures and share with my mom who would tell me these stories to my brother and me growing up. I really like the class and saved some money by not having to buy the book. A lot of reading but worth the time.
Highly recommend him for online! His class has been easy! Just make sure you read the chapter that is assigned and study for the exams. His assignments are just writing definitions, quizzes, and exams. All assignments are open from the beginning so you have enough time to complete them but they do have due dates. Overall, an easy class.
Took his HIST1301 U.S History 1 class and it was very simple. He provides the book and his assignments consist of writing definitions for key terms from the book, quizzes and 3 exams. Gives enough time to turn in the work.
Really easy class so far. Book is proved and lot of assignments. Would definitely take him again
Doesnt give out too much assignments. All are basicallly quizzes and writing down Vocabulary terms. Easy going professor
I definitely recommend Mr. Gomez! Took his class this Fall 2020 online. I work and have a 6 yr old, so my schedule is hectic plus online classes. I must say his class was easy just make sure to read the lectures and take your quizzes and exams on due dates. Piece of cake
Easy class! Work is not hard and quizzes and exams are based on the notes he provides! book is given to you by him!
An amazing teacher. He gives amazing lectures, he makes sure you can truly understand his lectures by giving examples in spanish and in english.
Very easy class. Assignments are very easy,
Took his HIST2328 Mexican-American History II class and it was a really easy course. Just consists of studying the notes & taking small quizzes & exams. Gives good feedback & responds back fast. No midterm exam. No webcam is required. Highly recommend his class
Dr. Gomez is a great professor. If I were you I would get him for class NOW! His lectures are easy to understand and he is really funny. He makes lectures fun to read. There are no discussions just quizzes and test, and all are open. Gives you the opportunity to advance with work, reason he will not accept late work.
Great Class. Everything is open from the start so its at your own pace but there is due dates for the assignments but they are far apart from each other so you have enough time to do them. Assignments are just quizzes from the book. Exams are based on the notes you study on his powerpoints so everything is the same. No webcam. Overall, Easy A.
You do vocabulary words, quizzes, 3 exams and final exam. On quizzes you have 1 chance, but with exams and final you have 2 chances. You are NOT WEBCAM, he lays out all his assignments so you can get started and advance. He does respond to you BUT he doesn't accept late work. You can finish his class before the end of his course. Good Luck.
Mr. Gomez class was sooo easy. He's an amazing professor and im glad I found him for history 2 because I hate history but I really enjoyed his work, it was nothing major. I honestly finished all his work in 3 weeks!
I took HIST1301 online and definitely won't take him for HIST1302. He does have everything set up nicely and organized, I will admit that. No discussions or webcam, or writing papers. You just do vocab words and quizzes/exams. They are tough because a lot are True/False and he makes them tricky to mix you up with the names and years. Dont do it.
I took him for History I and got an A for that class. This was back in 2013. You will need to read book assigned. He gives you 2 attempts for quizzes and exams. Make sure to just do the assignments and you will do great. Make sure to also take all attempts. Wish he taught Federal & Texas Government.
13 total assignments. Very hands off professor, you read the chapters, you take the quizzes/exams/vocab quizzes. One bad grade on anything will drop your grade FAST. His tests are hard because he words it very weirdly and it's like reading a riddle. No lockdown for anything. Can do work at your own pace/by the deadline but everything is unlocked.
Easy class, great professor and will respond quickly on the pronto app. Your "homework" is copying vocabulary words on Microsoft word. MAKE SURE TO READ THE SYLLABUS. He likes the homework to be turned in a certain way. You have quizzes every now and then, overall easy class.
Not sure where he gets these reviews saying he is easy A, I usually pass my classes with A&B yet still have a hard time with his exams.He words his questions weird, and exams are extremely hard even if they are not proctored, you will not find the answers in the book or his lectures!!
Literally, Professor Gomez is a king. His quizzes are the easiest all you have to do is read his study guides and he provides a study guide with the important stuff and he has a funny sense of humor! this is my third time taking him!
His tests are horrible, everything else is easy but the tests are worth the majority of the grade. Most in the class fail the tests or struggle a lot to even get a passing grade. Not an easy A class.
The quizzes are based on his lectures on Blackboard and his tests are hard but overall good class. No textbooks or lockdown.
This course was easy if you study the material. All quizzes and exams are available right away so you can finish the course early. There are due dates on each but you can get ahead. He provides the book. He gives a couple of extra credit opportunities for exams. Extra credit involves going to stc events. I also took hist 1302 with him.
Really clear on what is expected from you. Easy A on vocabulary quiz as long as you follow his instructions. If you review his study guides you should be good. Recommend taking his class
His quizzes make no sense if you fact check them. Quizzes are easy, but his final makes no sense
THIS MAN IS A LITERAL KING! get him no matter what. He is one of the best professors I have ever had. I have taken him 3 times and every single time I have enjoyed his class. 10/10
Easy class with a great professor. Lectures and quizzes are straightforward. Textbook is provided. For extra help, try Unstuckstudy along with the class resources.
His class was one of the easiest so far it was clear what you have to do and you can finish it earlier if you want to. I would recommend taking him to anybody it's an easy A !
Awful. Unorganized. Has major exams on the wrong module (oh, but it's correct on the syllabus). There aren't enough assignments to level out a bad grade. Didn't get the promised credits from the extra credit assignment. Register at your own risk.
Professor Victor Gomez's class was the best! I took it online and loved that all assignments were open from the start, so I finished everything by the second week. Very few assignments, (NO Honorlock), and extra credit for events. There's no way you can fail this class. Highly recommend!
MEX-AME HIST 2. Simple class, 2 unit exams and 1 final, the rest are quizzes, no extra credit for summer classes, its an easy A, has 2 attempts for every thing, but be carefull, he will ONLLY take the last attempt NOT your highest grade, so if you score high the first time dont take it a second time unless you know you'll get a higher grade
Professor is very helpful. Class consists of reading chapters and PowerPoints. Definitely recommend, easy A
Took this course online and was pretty easy with no honorlock or lockdown browser. All assignments are open from day 1 and have specific deadlines. Overall easy class, but some content was a bit confusing. I took Mex-American HIST 1 and its made up of 9 quizzes and 2 exams along with the final. Would recommend!
