Robert Rodriquez's class was a breath of fresh air. The class is very fun, enjoyable, and very interesting. I never wrote down a single note in the class and finished the year with straight A's. The homework in this class is great. It's always manageable, and if you write enough, you'll get a full score. Even on days when he assigns extra pages or sentences, it's Social Studies, so it's easy to write a ton about it. The only thing you really need to worry about in the first semester is the assignments. Finish them with good effort, and you'll do well. However, in the second semester, you may need to reread the text, but that's it. The most challenging aspect of the class is reading comprehension, so don't worry about this class. If you're also in Mrs. Lu's class, spend more time on her assignments. You'll need it. The only time you need to spend more effort on this class is the night before a test.

Mr. Rodriquez is an example of a peak 7th-grade Social Studies teacher. He handles all types of students well, has a good sense of humor, and is generally tolerant. Make sure not to talk over him, space out in class, or do your homework in class when he doesn't allow you to.
