I agree with the other review, Martinez is the nicest professor I've had so far! I hate writing, but the topics were interesting and that made it much more bearable. His grading is also very lenient, so I didn't have to stress too much about my essays and could focus on other classes. Would definitely recommend taking EngComp 3/3D with him.

I enrolled in this class because it was one of the only ones left but BEST BEST class and professor you could possibly take for EngComp 3D!! He is so charismatic!! You will want to actually go to class and it is never boring. The readings he assigns are actually interesting too ! I was so scared to take a writing class because i suck at it but this class was actually ENJOYABLE.

I really enjoyed this class with Dr. Martinez. He is super nice and really understanding. The readings are actually interesting to read. I really enjoyed the essay prompts and look forward to writing my essays. He really cares about his students and really understands the struggles of what they are going through. His grading is very fair also. He really made the class relaxing and enjoyable. His class really brightened my day and I looked forward to coming to class. Looking back, I can definitely say I really improved a lot as a writer in a very short amount of time. I really hope I can take him again for another writing class. Take this class with him!

I took engcomp 3 with Dr. Martínez. Dr. Martínez is a very engaging professor, and he makes engcomp very interesting. The readings he assigns are very relevant to what’s going on in the world as well as the papers that we are required to write. The only thing is he isn’t 100% clear what he is looking for in the papers, but his grading is quite lenient. When I read my papers from the past quarter, I believe my writing has significantly improved. I highly recommend taking this class with professor Martínez!!

Professor Martinez is a very funny and passionate about teaching, he genuinely cares about his students and wants everyone to get better writing skills. I took this class my first year and I do not think I have had a professor that cares this much. If you need help he is super helpful and resourceful, do not be afraid to let him know if their is something going on.

Professor Martinez is an amazing person. He genuinely cares for his students. Despite being an 8 am class, he brightens the rest of my day. Professor Martinez learned most of our names after the first week and encouraged us to learn from each other. In this class, we had three main papers: a rather creative personal narrative (the story of my name), a literary analysis of one of the readings, and one persuasive essay on any topic. I loved how we got to explore the three different types of writing, and he gave us a lot of time and opportunities to brainstorm and make progress. He is also a very lenient grader, and he gives readings that are interesting and aren't super essential to the class. Overall, I think I grew a lot as a writer, so if you need Engcomp 3 or 3D, definitely take his class!

I LOVED this class. I was originally worried about my very first writing class at UCLA, but Professor Martinez was amazing. He gave great feedback, and all of the readings we did for class I found very applicable. Each of the assignments seemed to climb in difficulty, and I found no issue progressing from one to another. He gave ample time for us to complete each assignment, and also gave us class time for peer review for our bigger papers. Professor Martinez gave a lot of effort to individually get to know everyone in my class, and also was super available for questions. I always excited to go to his class, and I think I learned so much about writing and how to revise my own writing. I wish I could take more classes with him!!

If you have to take English, take this class. Martinez is an actual goat and makes you want to go to class. He is very understanding and if you try in his class, it should be no problem to get the grade you want. Great professor :)
