WOW, terrilble semester!!! I don't know where to begin, she lectures on the most random things, and goes off on many tangents. Also lets her politics come through way too much! Would NOT take this professor again. Bring a pillow to class, you will need it .. :(

Comment:

Hist. of America;Had to 'W' from class to protect GPA. Tests are confusing. Took notes and attended every class,but don't know where she got those questions from. Have to teach yourself basically. Read text too, multiple times, no use. She is very fussy. Poor choice and a waste of your valuable time as a student. Look elsewhere for a history prof.

Prof. Drummond is a very good teacher, as long as you take her subject seriously. Remember, she likes those who participate in her class. She does Not like those who come late to class, try to be on time because she'll remember you. Take notes it will be on the test, but the tests are not hard overall. She's very passionate about her work. Easy A!

Her handwriting is difficult to read at first but as the semester goes on you can translate it. Participation is big in her class otherwise it slows the class down. Do the assigned reading!

The class was really easy as long as you paid attention. The test weren't that hard. Some multiple choice, essay questions, and fill in the blank. You watch alot of movies in that class. Overall I learned alot in that class and it was fun.

Wouldn't recommend this Professor what so ever. Lectures are extremely boring. You need to basically teach yourself because she's so confusing. Her test aren't multiple choice, and she gives no study guides. This class was a waste of time!

Comment:

Teacher's curriculum is terrible and haphazardly put together. She teaches lectures as if she's conversating with a friend. She spews out information, and seems to randomly pick some of that info to put on tests. Her tests are the hardest thing because Idk what to study. Don't get the book, she doesn't follow it. Learn by lecture Pray for LUCK. Sad

Comment:

What you have to do in this class is watch movies and write paragraphs. It's quite simple as long as you pay attention on what the teacher says. Really easy A, just remember what the movies are about and her main topic the movies portray. By doing this I guaranty you a Passing Grade. Also there is an assignment to write, about a studio tour

Comment:

She is a really sweet teacher and you can tell that she really loves her job and she wants to encourage students to participate. Unfortunately a lot of students at this community college don't care and they don't even try. It's unfortunate because she really loves her students and you can do well in her class if you put the effort in.

Comment:

Don't venture to voice an opinion she doesn't agree with. You're liable to be outright mocked (e.g. namecalling) in front of your peers. Very unprofessional. Not a hard class, but just a very strange one. Really, the worst teacher I've had. Kind of like Judge Judy; gets off on berating people.

Great teacher and interesting class if you are serious about your studies. I was borderline AB and she was super helpful to let me know what I needed to do to raise my grade. My favorite teacher, hands down. DON'T NEED TO BUY THE BOOKS, JUST BUY HER COURSE PACKET!

Comment:

Favorite professor, hands down. She is such a character, I love her. She teaches history like she's telling a story and I was on the edge of my seat hearing how Cortez conquered the Aztecs. She doesn't tolerate slackers, but all profs hate loser students, so don't be one. Highly recommend.

Easy class if you study a couple days before the test. She will usually tell you what you should study a day or two before the test, which is a big help!

Comment:

I took her for Humanity 1 and History 5, but I dropped hist5 because It's pretty difficult to follow her. I got B in Humanity1 because the topic was interesting. I also used tape recorder in all entire semester. Attendance is a must and don't be late. Book do no but book, because we never used it, however, need to buy a book that'd she published.

She's super nice, attendance is mandatory mean you a must attend the class and do not be late. Book do not buy text book we didn't used it at all. However we used the book that she'd published. Need to use tape recorder if you are not good taking notes.

Comment:

She is full of knowledge and genuinely loves history. Sometimes goes on rants about society if no one participates in class. Easy class if you like history. A lot of lecturing and isn't specific about what is on the test. Don't slack off and you will pass. Cusses sometimes which is funny. Overall decent teacher.
