Selected Teaching Evaluations
"He helped us better understand the harder topics we went over in class. While the topics became complex, Jose managed to break them down into smaller pieces and make them easier to understand."
"Jose always came to class prepared, was fantastic at answering questions, and did a great job at judging when we were confused and needed further clarification."
"He did a great job of making the material and questions more approachable. He was always positively reactive when asking him questions both in person and via email."
"Jose is kind, patient, insightful, and accessible. I looked forward to coming to discussion section every week."
