Comment:

Professor Trusty is not a demanding instructor but be aware of pop quizzes during her lectures. Notes and attending to class are very important. If you miss a class youll get lost. Her exams are multiple choices, true or false, fill in the blanks, and write a small paragraph or essay. The questions on the exams are reasonably fair.

I had her in the fall semester of 2017. She is a great teacher who I learned a lot of great study habits from. Lectures heavy but worth the listen, and do bonus points it will help.

She's the best World Regional Geography teacher. I wish I could take her cultural class this semester but it's full. You will not regret her class. So much fun! You do need to buy the book. Group quizzes every Monday but they're super easy and she drops your lowest score.

Comment:

Trusty is one of TCC's finest. She frames geography in a way that reflects the relationship between people and land, and it is one of the most fascinating classes I've ever taken. Grades are dependent on success on quizzes and tests, of which there is a learning curve, but she a great judge of her classroom and will give every chance to succeed.

I didn't want to take this class when I first signed up, but at the end I loved it. DON'T SKIP CLASS, you can read the book to help but, she gives a lot of her own notes. She is very nice, easy to talk to. If you ever have questions, very easy to get a hold of. It's a great class but, you do have to work for it. She is one of the good ones!

Dr. Trusty is SO great. I made an A because her lectures were really fascinating and discussion based. She lets us take quizzes in groups and gives you chances to earn extra credit on her tests. If you want to get credit and learn something new, take her. She is my favorite teacher I have had in college so far and you will not regret it.

She's great, be prepared to take quizzes but pretty easy as long as you read the material, take good notes and pass. She even let me borrow the textbook. Would recommend her.

I loved taking her class! She gave us a lot of information but she always takes time to answer a question. I would not recommend missing her class if you can help it but she goes back over her notes at the beginning of each lecture so you will be prepared for the test. Take Dr. Trusty's class, she is a fabulous teacher and you not regret it.

You need to be in class to pass. Her tests are comprised from notes taken during her lectures. I wasn't looking forward to taking this class and ended up enjoying it. Quizzes are given over reading assignments, which help with grade. Make sure to read information. Prof. Trusty is helpful and wants her students to pass, be willing to work.

I LOVE Dr. Trusty! My favorite teacher ever-I wish she had more than just 2 classes! Very knowledgeable of material covered & switches things up for each class. Quizzes in groups & tells you when & what to read-so no surprises. She will go above & beyond to help! Passionate about the subject & teaching! Dying to go to Europe with her one day!

If you are looking for an easy A this is NOT your class. Test are hard!!! Expect a Quiz every class period. You will learn a lot but it wont reflect on your grade.

Comment:

A supreme instructor. She stands tall above most others at TCC; a genuine human being and an expert on the course material. Took her for Intro to Geography, would take every semester if I could. However, don't expect an easy A. She is very dedicated to hard work and attendance. If you have any interest in history or the world, you will love her.

Professor Trusty is truly one of the best teachers I have ever had, she is extremely knowledgeable and passionate about her subjects which really comes through in her lectures making them very engaging. If you put forth effort in this course you will leave with so much, just make sure to attend all lectures and do the required reading (not much.)

Comment:

Trusty led an interesting class, but despite what many of the reviews say, I did not like her for some reason. Wasn't very helpful to me for some reason. I learned a lot in her class, but I really had to work hard. TAKE NOTES! Some of her facts, as well as religion topics seemed inaccurate, which confused me on exams. Not an easy A.

Comment:

She's really interesting to listen to. She lectures the whole period, but not in an annoying monotone way; she's very involved. I loved her course and would take her again. She's super sweet and she's easy to converse with. Taking notes is key, so show up to class. She gives reading quizzes which are easy points. Take her if you can.
