"I genuinely love Pedro so much. By far the best TA I've ever had. He's funny, empathetic, knowledgeable, kind, and GREAT at teaching. He cares about his students and it really shows. I think he made learning for this class much easier to digest and more entertaining and it was nice to be able to talk to someone about the class who genuinely understood where we were coming from as students. Just a great guy in general and he formulated discussions in a way that did aid my performance on quizzes and midterms. His strong suit is being able to explain complex problems/ideas in very basic terms."
"The strength of this course was that TA was truly passionate on students' learning economics and often checked whether every student was able to follow all the steps to solve the questions."
"Great TA that provides great examples and works through problems in discussion. Always happy to talk to you about grades or questions."
"Pedro is amazing. I would say that he is a huge reason why I learned the material. He made the material very simple and easy to understand and was very patient."
"Strengths for this discussion include the teaching style, as concepts were explained and exemplified so clearly, and I always understood everything when discussion ended at its designated time. the topics that were difficult from the lecture were solidified too. I know that econ is not a fairly easy course for everyone. I struggled too at many points- but the environment the TA created made me feel more confident in the subject and welcoming when there was difficulty with a question or topic."
"Pedro is the only reason I did so well in ECON 1011, his discussions always helped me actually understand the lectures and the skills that we learned throughout the week. His practice and working through the practice sheets during discussion was immensely helpful. He was always very attentive and helpful during discussion times and office hours."
"Pedro was very understanding and helpful. He did a great job of making sure that no singular students answered all of the questions. He made sure that new people were participating with every question."
