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 :)

Professor Martinez is really fun and made the class very enjoyable!

I took ENGCOMP 3D with Professor Martinez during fall quarter of my freshman year. He was incredibly nice and a very easy grader. He encouraged building relationship with the peers in the class. There are 3 papers and that is the majority of your grade, although participation (including attendance) is also a small portion of your grade. There are a lot of homework readings, all very interesting and thought provoking. However, you don't need to do them in order to succeed in the class, because as a class, we summarize the readings at the beginning of class. Professor Martinez was very funny and I was sad to say goodbye to him at the end of week 10. He was an incredibly easy grader and this was a very very easy A. Homework was not a part of your grade so everything is basically optional except showing up to class, doing the papers, and occasionally raising your hand in class. Overall, a very easy and fun course. I cannot emphasize enough: IF YOU NEED TO FULFILL WRITING 1, TAKE PROFESSOR MARTINEZ. He is the best professor ever. I would take this class again without a doubt.

This class had a very light workload and was pretty easy. If you go to office hours, the professor will basically edit your essays and ensure you get an A. We only had 3 essays and they were pretty short. There were some reading homework assignments through discussion posts but they were quick,

BEST PROF EVER!!!! Such interesting assignments, I really enjoyed the 3 papers we had to write. Attendance is mandatory, but lectures are manageable and feel like a community because of the small class size.
