This class was by far one of the worst classes I've ever taken at UCLA in the English Department. Professor Sanchez's lectures are poorly organized and not engaging what so ever. Every time I got to class, I couldn't wait to leave.

If you like a class where the professor just reads from the book you're learning from and asks occasional questions from time to time about it then maybe this is the class for you. He gave us quizzes every single class meeting and never remembered what he quizzed us on, which was unprofessional and made every student question how we were getting graded.

He's horrible at answering emails. Even though in class, he'll say you can always email him for help, this is a straight up lie. He makes it incredibly difficult to communicate with him throughout the quarter. So if you're sick or have any question good luck...

He's also incredibly unprofessional. He handed back every paper I wrote like it had been crinkled up in a ball in the bottom of his bag. He literally unfolded and flattened out the paper on his desk before he handed it to me. This really shows he doesn't give a shit so why would you as a student care about his class at all. The books we read were so boring and his lectures did not expand on anything. I basically wasted an entire quarter taking this class where I didn't learn one thing.

Do yourself a favor and never take this class or any class from this professor.

Seriously, run for your life. This guy was horrible. I had Romanticism at 8am and he would be like screaming with anger or enthusiasm about Wordsworth or Wollstonecraft--way to early for that kind of teaching. He quizzed us every morning at the beginning of class and that's how he took attendance. Also, for the final research essay, DUDE GAVE US HIS MASTERS THESIS AS AN EXAMPLE TO LIVE UP TO. And I quote the following: "I want to see your thesis in the abstract, and then never see it again!" or "I want you to mention your research, and then never see it again!" When I asked him for help on finding good research/sources after I said my efforts were futile to live up to his standards, he said "well then I don't know, you shouldn't be an English major then. This is what we do." Really? I'm a transfer student doing English Honors and am in FIVE different honors societies, AND GRADUATING WITHIN A YEAR'S TIME and you're telling me I should change my major? Cool bro. And to top it off, he emailed us our final grade before they came out. DUDE PROMISED ME AN A- AND I GOT A B+ WTF
