Okay hello! So I took sir Gemmy for online intersession for EC111. The first two weeks ata we had ALL days na synchronous, tapos the next weeks we only had 3 days synchronous classes. Our requirements were 9 assignments, midterms and finals. Lectures: sir is a v good prof!!! Though what he says is mostly from the book, he rly explains it in a good way using analogies and examples. Though medj maraming synchronous sessions, he allots around 10-20 minutes for questions sa end. U can literally ask anything he will answer HAHAH. Also, he does one chapter per synchronous session. (We studied 18 chapters in total ata, 9 for midterms and 9 for finals). For me maiintindihan mo talaga si sir if makinig ka ng mabuti! Whats amazing din is he has pre-recorded lectures that he uploads para if di ka makapunta, you can just listen to it. Bale si sir may synchronous session na, tas he recorded himself lecturing beforehand pa HAHAH. Plus, he really gives REAL life applications (baka kasi we told him our expectations sa class is to learn how econ applies in real life). He taught us like how to prep for interviews, what to do if ure gonna pursue business or marketing ganon HAHA. Assignments: Sa simula, sir gave around like three homeworks due on the same day. But then over time he kinda paced it naman na and gave us time to finish. The assignments are really easy, it’s just him asking u to reiterate what he said in synch. sessions or give him an example. Kunwari he talks about how important insurance is in the lecture. Sa hw he’s gonna ask “can u give an example of insurance?” Ganon. Madali lang. Tas giveaway siya, sir automatically makes you perfect or -1 or -2 lang kahit na super mali ka sa sagot mo HAHAH. Midterms and finals: Sir always tells us “prioritize the book, then the ppt, then if needed, the recorded lecture.” So you kinda need to read the 18 chapters for the midterms and finals, which is when the class becomes heavy. Medyo mahaba book so ayon its gonna be hard to cram reading it before the midterm or final. But the actual exam is easy lang. He literally says “i dont wanna put too much math or make ur head hurt” and he stays true to that! Basta whatever is included sa exam, he definitely discussed it in class OR part siya ng book. Plus, open notes exam namin HAHA. I guess the only “””negative?””” Thing you can say about sir is that—he gave a recorded lecture about derivatives lang and didn’t bother discussing it. He expected us to learn that on our own nalang! Pero he warned us naman before the exam “pls read the derivatives, may two items na kasali sa exam abt that.” Lastly, he’s also very responsive sa emails or canvas messages. U can expect a reply right away. He always says “I respect your time” Overall, he’s a really great great guy. Super awesome and smart, really passionate about economics and tried to make us see the beauty of econ talaga HAHAH. I recommend you get him!!! PLS. He is probably one of my fave admu profs ever na HAHAmore

this year is his first time teaching and i swearrrrr he's super chill and is always amenable to moving deadlines or switching to online HAHAHAHAHA one time my friends and i got stranded in uptc bc of the rain, he was kind enough to not count lateness/attendance that day! super approachable din so if you want to consult with him or even chika, pwedeng pwede mo siya makausap mataas din siya maggrade!!! he's a sociologist and a lot of the topics are pretty interesting at least for me! and promise napaka-chill lang ng class niya halos walang requirements tlg......probably my lightest class rn edit: he really likes it when u are specific with ur examples sa mga activity, so always make sure to cite your sources, it's a pretty surefire way to get an A sa kanya if u cite properly and are particular with examplesmore

I’m taking him this sem and we don’t have any quizzes, long tests, or a midterm exam. So far, we have only had class activities that aren't graded, reporting, and the NSTP requirements. He’s chill in the sense that his lectures are more of a chismisan with him because he really tries to make it fun and digestible. He’s a nice & competent prof. You should definitely take him if you can.more
