Comment:
he lets you redo and is not a hard grader if you take his feedback! Its an easy A as long as you refer back to her lectures he posts and homework is minimal for the least! no research paper given, he is super funny and throughly explains stuff and literally tells you what he expects and you just need to listen and write and you'll get that A!

Very good professor. He really wants to students to improve, and he gives detailed feedback on what you can do better. Do expect lots of reading and response questions though. Each paper you are given feedback for each stage of rough drafts. Final exam is fairly easy, he mentions everything to be expected.

His 101A-07 class was really easy. All you have to do is listen carefully about what he wants during his lectures and meet his criteria when you write essays/do homework. He allows redos and his feedback is very straightforward. Easy A class.

I am so glad to have taken Taguchi for my first semester of English at Ohlone. He was the funniest lecturer and everything he talked about, he would give a little story about. His grading is hard on essays but don't worry at all because you can redo any of your work if you don't like the grade that you received.

Amazing professor. Let's you redo any assignment you receive a low grade on. The textbook is used for reading assignments. Prepare for a lot of classwork. As long as you listen to feedback and turn in your work this is an Easy A.

I loved this class. After being out of school for a few years He really explained and went over everything. Wants the student to succeed . You do have to read and write essays . He does let you redo them for a higher grade. Any class with him would be great . He tapes classes for those who miss a class. All in all best professor ever!

Mike is easily my favorite professor this semester. Hes very helpful and cares about his students. Grades a little hard on essays but is reasonable. Work load is mediocre, not too much. Very honest and real w/ his students. He allows redos, even on essays. A few easy quizzes. Final is not too difficult, just time consuming. Def would take again.

He assigned lots of readings, 3 papers, and we had about 2 group projects. He is such a tough grader.. I hate it. He does allow you to redo pretty much all your essays but I'll say this... He's the type of professor to tell you "I know these are troubling times" then be the trouble during these times by adding so much to your plate 9_9

He is super organized and a really good teacher. He is willing to clarify or explain anything you need. He uses a lot of examples and analogies so u wouldn't get lost during class. He allows redos if you work hard for it. :)

The professor is very confusing when regarding to instructing the real information required for essays. He often goes on lectures and talks that are confusing that he takes more time than he should on. Too much time on insignificant factors and too little time on actual useful information.

TAKE HIM!! He's such an amazing and caring teacher! I didn't know how to write essays in the beginning of the class and now I know how to write them! His feedback is amazing and gives you chances to redo them if you aren't satisfied with your score. The homework isn't a lot if you take time to do it. He's truly one of the best teachers at Ohlone!

Taguchi is one of the best professors at Ohlone. He gives good feedback on essays if you failed on and lets you do rewrites for a better grade. There is a lot of homework he assigns but he's okay. He can be a tough grader sometimes. If you want an instructor that'll give you a chance to rewrite essays, take him.

Don't get me wrong Taguchi is a solid prof. He as well is a very nice person. But for me personally he wasn't the best teacher I could've taken. He is a very very very tough grader and I can not stress that enough. Many of times I've turned work into him thinking I would at least get a B+ but in the end get a unrealistic low grade. TOUGH GRADER

Comment:
Mr. Taguchi is a terrible teacher, for starters he got to be one of the most unreasonably harshest graders I've have ever experienced. To give an example you can maybe do two things wrong on a homework assignment and he'll dock off at least 50% of the grade on that assignment. Take his class if you want to throw your money down the drain.

Professor Taguchi was one of my FAVORITE professors at Ohlone. Loved going to class & listening to the news. He color codes his notes and is very well organized. He is very precise when it comes to grading essays but b/c of that I am a truly better writer. My advice? Complete all the homework EARLY and don't slack!

Professor Mike is really great and he cares about his students. if you go to him and tell him your situation he will give you extensions. He explains everything well and give redo's so you have no excuse to fail, Can be a tough grader sometimes but he gives second chances so works out well. lectures are great as well, a lot of easy assignments too.

Horrible teacher won't even allow student an extension if very busy schedule due to other classes workload. Won't understand that students take other classes except for his. I would never take this class again the review on rate my professor is all wrong I don't understand how a teacher can't understand that us as students have more then one class.

Professor Taguchi is one of the hardest professors I have ever taken. He acts like english is the only class each of his students has. He gives us loads of homework on top of essays and group work. There was a time when the class had 7 lengthy homework assignments due plus an essay AND HE DOES NOT CARE.
