Comment:
He is so nice! He really wants everyone to do well. There are 2 tests (midterm/final, he gives out 3 essay questions before and you know 2 of them will be on the test. The rest of the test is just defining terms and explaining their importance. If you go to class, and do the reading it is completely manageable.

Comment:
He grades papers based on incredibly unclear guidelines. He grades tests very harshly. His quizzes are on subjects that take up maybe a sentence in the book and make little difference on the actual class.

Comment:
The assigned work was easy, but he is a harsh grader...he goes over maybe 3 slides over 1.5 hours, very boring, and he forgets what he is saying in the middle of a sentence, I wouldn't advise taking him unless you had to.

Comment:
There are only 2 tests (midterm and final) and 2 papers. Must keep up on the readings becuase there are 5 pop quizzes during the semester but they're just definitions. Very easy. The books are easy to read. Easy A! Great teacher!

He is the best teacher I have ever had. He expects students to do their assigned work and readings. He treats everyone fairly, and he goes out of his way to help students with any problems. He also makes history interesting, and he makes sure everyone understands what he is saying.
