Comment:

Inspiring! The best lecturer I've ever heard. She makes history so interesting because she doesn't just go by the text, and gives you side information on people that makes it more fun and relevant. Loved her class!

Tests are not too difficult. It is not necessary to read the book but you need to attend class in order to get a good grade.

Comment:

She seems boring, but i hate history so it's all boring. no attendance policy, gives study guides early on, i sleep in class and still do well. i recommend her, she's nice and is helpful when you need it. overall she's good, tries to be interesting. she outlines notes well- makes it easy to follow

heard lots of bad things about her, dint like her at first but really turned out to be an interesting lady, whom i wouldnt hesitate to take again given the chance. Her class is a breeze if you just do the reading and take down the notes. Turtle Power

Comment:

Although her methods of teaching are good, there could be improvement in terms of raising interest level. It is nice to cite dates and key figures during important historical events, but there is not enough regarding helping people gain interest in the subject material at hand.

very boring at first, but warmed up to her. just take notes, and study those notes--it's that simple. no need to read the book or anything. Even though it wasn't an EXCITIN class, ppl hardly missed it.

She isn't interested in helping the students, only in teacher her lesson plan and finishing with that. Every time someone asks her a question she yells at them.

She is a great prof. She is somewhat hard but you learn. The tests are kind of hard, but the maps are really easy. She is a really nice person, so if you get her talk to her outside of class and let her know who you are.

BORING!! The subject matter is fascinating but her presentation is so boring. Her tests are fairly easy, just study the map and IDs. No attendance policy, which is a good thing! She is not very responsive or helpful.

Comment:

Worst teacher I have had at CNU. She is the most unresponsive and unhelpful person I have ever met. Essays are worth 50% of your test grades, yet she doesn't give you the questions beforehand to study. Is boring, lifeless, pretentious, and aSatan-incarnate.
