Leans worth takingread from published reviews and public records · medium confidence
Take Tenorio for FILI 12 if you want a prepared, funny, theater-literate core lecturer and you will actually do the readings and recite. Lean away if you need a free A, will not print or memorize readings, or freeze on frequent identification quizzes. Sample is three writeups, so this is lean_take rather than take.

*the structure of the course might be different now? we didn’t do Pasakalye but a lot of FILI 12 classes have it now
I’d write an entire review about how good he is, but here’s some points
- no gadgets (have to print readings)
- quizzes are recall identification from the readings
- major assessments are creative projects (i remember doing a slide deck and some videos) plus oral final by group
but more importantly, about sir:
- he’s a big art and theater guy (will explain passionately, authoritatively, and with such conviction and genuine care that you can’t help but listen)
- THIS MAN IS A PERFORMER; he doesn’t hype himself up or make it obvious in class, but HE IS GOOD. He appears in shows!! look him up seriously
- you have to put effort in, but you’ll wanna make him proud
10/10 WOULD TAKE HIM AGAIN.
I had to work a little hard for this class (esp with readings and some other stuff) but it was incredibly fulfilling. Give me another Tenorio class pls 🙏more

i believe sir tenorio is A-able but with max effort
he grades strictly and his quizzes (++he has a lot of quizzes) are really a test if you understood/memorized the reading. he will make you read this really long epic (my quizzes on this epic all have low scores help)
but even if this is the case, i really enjoyed learning in his class! until now i believe he's one of the best teachers i had—his humor and way of teaching make him stand out among all my other core profs. also he mentioned that if he remembers you by the end of the sem as someone who keeps reciting, he will curve your final grade 1 letter up (as long as the difference between your initial grade and the next letter grade is not too big)more

Read the story or he'll walk out

take notes in class - really really really understand the reading! take note of who said what to who or where does who live or what does this character call another character
- read the reading and know what happens, he walked out on our class because he ignored the frequent reciters and asked people who don’t recite questions and realized no one really read the story - during quizzes, if u dont know the answer, write down whatever u can recall and listen to ur gut because something written down is better than a blank
- read the syllabus 😭 he’s going to give a quiz about the syllabus during ur 2nd session and its a big big big failmore

Couldn't say if he's chill and easy, but Tenorio is one of the best

I couldn't say if he's a chill and easy @, but so far Sir Tenorio is one of the best profs based on what I heard. Too bad wala si Doc. Jerry Respeto, he's by far the best I've experiencedmore

A-able if you do Bonus Bingo

He doesn’t curve unless you recite a lot in his class. I understand the frustration with his scoring because he’s quite difficult to please, but as long as you do the Bonus Bingo (I recommend completing it), should be A-able!more
