Winter 2020 - Professor Perez-Torres is truly one of the best professors that I have had at UCLA! He is so passionate about his work and demonstrates the most genuine care for students that I've experienced at this university. He organizes his class through organized PowerPoints that provide a clear structure for each lecture, and he welcomes questions with enthusiasm! We had one midterm that consisted of ID's and explanations, which wasn't too hard if you kept up with the readings. Our final essay explored significant topics within several of the texts, and his prompts were very engaging! I would highly recommend this professor; honestly, I wish I could have taken another class him because he was just so positive and so passionate about the material.
