Professor Arriola is a easy class if you know how to teach your self. the tests and quizzes are not too bad but he is very hard to understand because his meathods are completely absurd. he pretty much wears the same shirts to class everytime.

I really connect with the way Arriola explains things, I appreciate how he's willing to go over the same material again and again in order to make sure I really "get it", and I like how down-to-earth he is. I don't like his testing style -- most of the quizzes and exams have been multiple choice, which sucks because it's all or nothing. (But actually, that saved my butt on the first test, so maybe I shouldn't complain... I guess that testing style can cut both ways.) He does seem rather inflexible in terms of grading, although those of us who showed up to class on some random Fridays did get some extra credit, which I hope will help me out in the long run. I really appreciate the fact that we get to use formula sheets and a cheat sheet for the final. Overall, the material's not overly difficult and Arriola's got a great way of explaining things. I wish I could take him for calc next semester...

Prof Arriola is pretty much terrible. He seems like hes a substitute during every class period constintly saying "I won't tell you why this works, it just does." He is very unogranized and doesn't know any of the students names. His tests aren't the worst but on the problems its all or nothing; either you get it right or wrong. It class is unbearably boring. Overall I would seriously avoid this professor if at all possible.
