Nice and flexible, but vague rubrics and answers can still confuse you
- LeniencyNo
I had him for socsci 13 for 1st sem and tbh idk if it's just me but I really didn't know the difference between economics and how he taught this course mismo Pros: - sir is really understanding and super nice! he'll adjust deadlines if you're transparent w him about the heavy workload with other classes - he's really approachable esp in terms of asking for clarifications/questions Cons: - when he does answer said questions, you might be even more/still confused kasi he just repeats what he said or he paraphrases it - his rubrics are pretty vague, I didn't get to ask him for feedback in my assessments but I felt like he could have been clearer with it - he gave midterms on a Wednesday and expected it to be submitted on Saturday of that week, so it took some time to convince him to change the deadline since 4 days isn't feasible - his readings are pretty long and idk how others did it cuz I wasn't able to keep up after the first set of readings Tips: - go to his synch classes (has at least once a week) cuz sometimes he gives plus points to those who show up - get solid groupmates cuz that's how I survived :') TLDR: I wouldn't get him cuz I didn't really learn anything from him. I guess the highest you can get from him is B+ cuz that's what I got this sem in spite of my canvas assessments saying otherwisemore

Very manageable workload; kind, still finding his feet

Oki coming back as a beadle from SocSci 13 nung 1st Qtr — I love him so much HAHA I think he’s new and with that you can expect inexperienced teaching, but that’s not entirely bad! Workload is VERY managaeable like I remember may case study (not those hard ones lol), infographic, paper, and a presentation of it (kasi connected siya sa NSTP and major mo). Most of it are groupworks din so get a good group kasi same group mo yan across all 3 subjects. He’s also responsive when you message him and understanding and kind and compassionate omg like he understands your sufferings ganun HAHA don’t be afraid to tell him your concerns so he can do something about it! Yung con lang for me is that he’s not yet used to teaching yet, hindi siya yung dynamic and energetic, but you can see that he’s passionate in teaching! He appreciates it if you share insights during synch! It’s just sad na the class wasn’t as engaged as much kasi he deserves better! Anyway grade-wise, very B+ to A-able with effort as usual, pero not yung mamamatay ka na. Sobrang kaya yan and I had fun in his class naman kahit some would say it was boring. more

He's a very kind, approachable, and considerate prof whos definitely A-able. Workload is super manageable, and he does his best to make sure the course is interesting so you can expect theres going to be other activities than just answering discussion boards or quizzes. The modules for me were also well-designed and you would learn a lot of practical things about society and poverty. It's just that since he's still a new prof the way he teaches doesn't exactly grab the student's attention, it's a bit monotonous and I sometimes have a hard time understanding him, but he knows a lot and if you need any clarifications he's open to consultations and appreciates students who are active/eager to learn. Overall, I didn't feel stressed in his class and enjoyed the course. He puts in effort for his students plus grades quite generously. more

jfisdfh HAHAH but yes I agree with all the sentiments here! Tbh it was hard seeing the connection of this subj with nstp ( since it was integrated for us ) and I got overwhelmed with the info presented in the module. This course was very technical and I felt that sir expected us to know some of these concepts before but in my case I really didn't have any background on econ. In order to survive this subject, getting good grpmates is key but personally i wouldn't take him again since it was very stressful especially when he gave out the midtermsmore

Nice lola vibes, but lectures go off topic
positive
- LeniencyYes
hi op! currently taking one of maam bautista’s class rn and shes actu rlly nice and gives off lola vibes. id say she grades fairly but this is bc most of the assessments she graded are quizzes. i dont think she teaches well tho:(( most of the time she’d just yap and goes off topic. i had a hard time following and listening during her class. but she posts her ppts and lessons sa canvas so id suggest u focus on studying that instead. shes rly rly rly rly nice op 🥹 i actu like her but not when shes teaching lang. for sir charlon naman he was our intact mod and hes chill naman. idrk how he grades or whats his teaching style.more

Just dip guys…. Hes a low grader talaga, hes chill and class isnt too stressful but when he teaches, most of the time he doesnt make sense or prolly just doesnt know what hes talking abt brah… HES A UBER LOW GRADER. Our midterms was relatively hard but me and my friends were pretty sure we aced it (expected maybe a 87 or 95/100) then BOOM, got a 63.5 like BRAH THATS NOT PARTIAL, thats final midterm exam grade brah, and the mean for 20+ students was 68 like WHAT? and highest was 80. Also for papers, he has like a final paper and a midterm policy paper wch as expected, he also grades rlly low. But in the end, he did say that no one has failed his class and no one will this sem daw so…. if ure goal is to pass econ 121, take him. if u care abt grades, BOUNCE AS FUCKmore
