I took this class Summer 2010, and it is my favorite history class to date. Dr. Hellstern is a great lecturer, and his tests are not too difficult - they are take home, open note, open book. He really brings ancient civilizations to life. Great teacher!

ive taken four of Dr. Marks classes even though i only needed one for my major. he is that good. best teacher at TCC no question and maybe the best ive ever had, super knowledgable and very very funny. he makes lectures fun and is all in all a breath of fresh air at TCC. show up to class, pay attention and look over your notes occasionally = A+

He is a great teacher and he does make the learning fun and very interesting. It's nice to have a knowledgeable and good teacher like him. I'm lucky I got his class. I would very much enjoy taking him again for anything at all. One of the best there is.

He's amazing. I wish that my major required more History credits, or that he taught on other subjects, so that I could take him again. Funny and knowledgable. Willing to work with you! More teachers should follow his lead.

No homework, but like everyone says, write down everything he says in class and study for your tests. Tests are multiple choice, but he wants to know that you know the info. Nice person, and class is never boring, some kids in my class brought in machine that makes fart sounds and he just laughed. I'm taking 2 of his honor classes next semester.

Comment:

8wk online class itself was pretty easy, but communication from the prof was very poor. Very slow to post grades, study guides do not match tests. Be sure to read all chapters & watch videos. He grades pretty easy ( I ended up with over 100%), but you're definitely on your own in this class. Would recommend as quick and easy credit.

I took his online class for American History, it was great! He would email the study guide with the topics for the test. I would answer them on my own prior to the test and he would have questions very similar to the study guide. It takes him a while to grade your tests but i eneded up with a really high A in the class. It was pretty easy :)

To the one who rated right below me, I am in the same course, and I found Dr. Hellstern to be VERY accommodating and nice. His emails were crystal-clear. You must be one of those who never reads the syllabus or pertinent emails, then gripes about things you don't understand. This may be a telecourse, but it is still college. Grow up!

Comment:

The guy is HORRIBLE! Won't answer questions and when he does he is rude and insulting. Doesn't explain anything and is extremely slow to post grades. The class itself is just read the material (but he won't tell you what chapters to read) watch the videos and fill out the 40+ essays on the study guide. Tests aren't always like the guide. Beware! :(

I just finished his 8 week Telecourse class, and it was great! I learned so much! 4 tests, each test has a study guide. Listen to the streamers answer and understand the questions and you'll do fine on the tests! Highly recommended!
