Comment:

I've had the pleasure of taking two separate courses with Instructor Puisto. This instructor is extremely knowledgeable and provides sufficient information to gain a basic understanding of historical events. His accent didn't distract from he content, I actually enjoyed it. As long as you show up for class & complete Mindtap, you'll be fine.

I'm not even completely done with his class but I would just like to mention that he is more than helpful in giving you great feedback and helping you reach your goals. He is quick with responding to you. Great online class.

Some language barrier but he knows so much about US and European history. Class wasn't too challenging and I gained alot of knowledge on US political history.

Class was very easy, not a hard teacher at all. I guess you would have to go to class at least once a week. Show up for reviews. If you buy the book then you have it made.

He did have an accent, but I didn't think it was that bad. Guy knows his stuff and loves to teach it. I thought he was hilarious and the class was fairly easy if you did the work.

The teacher and class that made me switch my major from Liberal Studies to History! Jaako is the best - I thought he was super friendly. His accent is so romantic - you don't meet many Finnish people. Learn how to say hello in Finnish - it's fun! I don't t
