sir camacho the goat Marco Francisco

He’s a good grader and easy to talk to! You need to memorize a lot and study for what he calls his long tests, which are every week. Some are individual which are simple to answer, and some are group (pick your own at the start pa lang) where you can divide the load. All multiple choice. Each group has 1 group report are a thing where you have to make a game to teach a topic and make a quiz, and we had to do a video also. Super kaya mag-A and camacho makes studying for finals easier as well cos of the weekly LTsmore

U can perfect his LTs just by reading the book. (U don’t even need to go to class tbh) He also barely takes attendance. Super bait in general

Amazing prof overall! One of the highlights of my sophomore year as I genuinely enjoyed accomplishing his requirements (even if I spent hours scouring the internet for possible journals that fit my topic). He's very approachable as well and I do recommend grabbing a partner to consult sir about your paper. iirc, the quizzes at the end of each module weren't required but accomplishing them would give you extra credits ++ you get 3 tries to memorize your correct answers and fix your incorrect ones! Overall, you won't regret taking his class and definitely A-able with effort!

Each topic has their own video so its easy look for references in his lessons, very approachable and he gives great critique in your papers, pointing out their strengths and weaknesses not just in topic usage but in overall flow (if he was my editor I’d be a happy writer lol)more

hi! i had sir ryan last year and he’s easily one of my favorite profs ever! ❤️ he’s super nice and i definitely enjoyed his class sm! his lectures are in the form a video where he presents a ppt and basically discusses each point (there’s a transcript as well iirc if u want another medium of learning hehe)! he has quizzes for each module as well but u have like 3 tries ata for them and they’re fairly easy!! his reqs are mostly DBs (both group and indiv), thought papers, and a group presentation! the indiv DBs and thought papers take some time as some research is involved but tbh i rlly liked the thought papers as u get to choose ur own topic! :> overall would def take him as a prof again and he always ends his lectures with “i wish you well, i wish you peace, and i wish you happiness” ☺️ def B+/A-able w effort! ❤️more

took field methods under sir ryan (was also his beadle). what i appreciated most about him was how he gave very detailed feedback. he’s also approachable so whenever you have questions or if you need immediate comments on your work, just send him a message on canvas and he’ll most likely reply. he has a one pass rule tho so sometimes he might not answer your questions if they’re too specific.. or if you send him a draft of your work, he won’t check it bc u only have to pass it ONCE. but that’s ok kasi you can always frame your questions in a way that’s not too… specific and direct ig as a beadle naman it was very easy to communicate with him. he was very lenient with our class requests but ofc if may mga di mapapagbigyan na requests, we’d understand.more

Literally the most considerate prof you could ever ask for. I was a beadle last sem for one of his SocPsych classes, and he is so chill it's crazy. Very lenient with deadline extensions, long exams extensions and workload negotiations BUT PLEASE do NOT abuse this privilege. Sometimes when I ask for extensions (based on what the class wanted), I feel so guilty because I feel like we're asking for too much. Pero he doesn't mind naman kasi he was a student nga raw before. Nasa sariling konsensya niyo na yan kung aabusuhin niyo. Regarding his teaching style, very straightforward. He adds information that you can't find sa reference book so important to actually listen to lectures. He's fun and engaging din, so kahit inaantok ka you'll actually absorb something. Long exams are usually based on his powerpoints, ref book, and lectures. Just make sure to read the readings before the exam and you'll be fine. Book chapters are, as usual, long but pinahaba lang siya because of the research examples. Easy to understand naman. We had an archival research paper for our semester-long requirement. He'll give proper instructions, just follow it and you'll be fine. There are also mandatory consultations about those so make sure you're prepared. Be thorough with the details you add because he will ask questions. Not super strict naman like those terror profs you think of. Basta handa ka ok na yon Can't say if easy A bc I was a beadle. Definitely A-able though. But tbh, matalino at masipag ka naman siguro kaya mo na yan 👍 imo, madali lang exams niya basta nag-aral ka. You're in good hands! He's the goat 🫡💙more
