Love his teaching style. He made history make sense and his tests are rather straightforward. If you pay attention, he'll give you what is going to be on the test the class beforehand and you can practice write stuff ahead of the test and be uber prepared.

Comment:

Outside of class, Professor Sherayko is an amazing person who cares deeply about his students. If you express that you care about your school work and grades, he will take you seriously and treat you as an equal. He does show a lot of movies and you will read a lot of books, but if you plan ahead, you will get everything done.

Comment:

I had a good experience with Sherayko. He insists on using an overhead projector and he displays large posters of SocialistCommunist leaders but hey, what do you expect from an EXTREMELY liberal teacher. I would not be against taking more of his classes.

Comment:

He got off topic many times. When describing times in history he would jump around with dates. Tries to act like one of the students which is annoying. His grading system was confusing, and if you said one thing he didn't agree with then he would not take your comments into consideration.

Took lots of classes from Sherayko. Took two of his seminar classes. Genocide and Propaganda. They were completely wonderful and got me interested in the topic I am writing my Master's paper on. I would recommend him for anyone interested in history.

Fantastic professor, but a better person. He will always go out of his way to help you with the material or to get through a bad day. Thankful he was there! I ended up taking many other of his classes because he was so enthusiastic about his courses.

I don't understand how this man is so popular. He tries to hard to be liked, his lectures (when he's actually 'teaching') are boring, and his jokes aren't funny.

Best Professor at R-MWC. He really knows how to present material in a way that is clear and easy to follow. However you have to pay attention to detail because he likes details. Loves them actually and he will take off for not paying attention to detail.
