Dr. Garcia has been an excellent professor during my time in the university. His passion for the academe and teaching enables him to be an effective instructor. He delivered his lessons very well and engaging making courses clearer for us. He provides much needed feedbacks on our researches.

He's an excellent friend outside the classroom.

Dr. Garcia was my professor back in Software Engineering class and i could totally see how passionate he is about his profession. He always makes sure his classes are fun and very easy to learn and not only that he's also a very kind person. Thank you sir! Thank you for being a good guide and role model to us students. The knowledge and learning you shared to us students will always be with us and me, as your former student will be forever grateful to you, and all my other professors who helped me be the way I am today as a professional.

Our group capstone project was mentored by Professor Manuel Garcia. We wanted him to mentor us because he became our Professor first in a different subject and I remember clearly how he can thoroughly teach each lessons / modules he'd prepared for us and his passion for teaching is something that you'd love to see as a student because that's what students would want - a Professor who's confident on what he teaches and who would understand each and every students. All of his teachings were easy to understand and at that time our group decided to pick him as our mentor and it was the best decision we ever made because not only he would guide our group together through our capstone project but he'd listen to each member of the group and give suggestions and recommendations enough for us to get through each chapters of our project because he want us to see progressing and to get better. We were able to finish our capstone project under his supervision and we got awards too as Best Aesthetics and Best Gameplay for our video game entitled Beast Chasers. Professor Manuel is easy to talk to and direct to the point whenever we we're having issues. He really loves teaching and imparting knowledge to his students and I couldn't thank him enough for helping us out during tough times of our project. Thank you Sir! I hope you'd be able to give and inspire more students!

I have had the pleasure of co-editing the Handbook of Research on Instructional Technologies in Health Education and Allied Disciplines with Manuel Garcia, and I can confidently say that his contributions to the project were invaluable. Manuel's expertise in educational technology made him the ideal partner for this project. He brought a wealth of knowledge and insight to the table, and his passion for improving education through the use of instructional technologies was evident in every aspect of his work.
