Professor Ortiz was amazing!! Clearly passionate about linguistics, and was very good at explaining during lectures. Go to lectures, pay attention, and participate when you can and you will find it easy to get an A. His exams were super fair and there were no "tricks" or surprises, but definitely study and memorize important terms. He drops the lowest of our 3 exams, so if you are happy with your grade after the first two exams you don't even have to take the final! Ortiz was truly the kindest, most passionate professor and I couldn't have asked for a better HESP120 professor to really kickstart my learning of linguistics and hearing and speech sciences. 100% recommend him. |

Professor Ortiz did a great job teaching the subject. I found the lectures to be engaging, and he provided great examples to reinforce our learning. The exams were pretty memorization-heavy, but if you pay attention in lecture and study the bolded terms, you'll be fine. Overall, HESP120 was tougher than I expected (primarily because of the memorization), but I really enjoyed the content. |

Spunky and fun! knows the material better than anyone I've ever met and genuinely is passionate about it and wants you to be too. I think he was an absolutely fantastic professor and was incredibly fair with all assignments. He even dropped our lowest test grade out of the three tests to help out students who weren't doing well. Jose is the man and I'd take any of his classes in a heart beat |

Great professor. Exams are exactly what is on the slides. He works well with you if you need to reschedule any exams. He also gives extra credit if needed. Goes a bit quickly through the slides but posts them after class. |
