Great professor! His US History class was the first class I took in college. I like his teaching style! No homework, just show up and take good notes and do the reviews. Reviews were very helpful for the tests! One of the easiest classes I taken. Amazing Professor!

He is a very great professor! The class is easy to pass if you pay attention. One of my favorites, his reviews are the exact same test.

Comment:

If you haven't mastered the art of taking notes (the old school way) without the aide of a power point--or at the very least know how to google questions on the reviews--don't bother taking this class. If this is you, then this class will be one of the easiest As you can get. I just finished a multiple choice/matching/true false test in 15 minutes.

He has a good personality. Classes are mainly lectures, no textbook or other outside information. The only grades given are 4 test grades plus the final. The review sheets are exact copies of the tests, but the tests are more difficult than expected. Attendance isn't mandatory as long as you are good at studying for tests.

Comment:

Amazing, you dont even have to show up and he wont count it against you. There are only four grades in this class and thats the four tests plus Final. The reviews are the test but you(the student) must fill in the answers. Super easy, take it for an easy grade if needed

Comment:

First off don't buy a textbook. Use quizlet because he offers a review which are very similar to his tests. The only grades he has are 4 tests and a final which is optional if you want a higher average. He also drops your lowest test grade! As a person he makes a lot of jokes, and his lectures can get lengthy but his classes are easy and manageable

Great guy and a good professor. All he does is lecture, no ppt. Take good notes and you can do fine. 5 test make up the grade. No hw or projects but 1 pop quiz for extra credit points and thats it. Study hard for the test AND COLLABORATE WITH OTHERS to get the review right. Review is the exact test w parts missing. Dont buy a textbook.

I hate to say this, because I genuinely do like the guy, but his lectures are just plain awful most of the time. I've tried my best to follow him, but he goes WAY too fast and there's no powerpoint or anything to help us follow. He only has 4-5 tests in his class where half of the answers on the reviews never seem to be on the test! NO HELP HERE!

Comment:

Worst experience I've had so far at TCC, none of the material is concrete because the class and tests are based solely on his biased word. There is nothing to look back on at the end of the day except for any notes you took and 90% of his lecture is not even material he puts on the test. Avoid this teacher... i had all A's before him. Just awful.

Hope is a really good guy. He gives you a review first day of starting a new chapter. The review is the test. By is the test I mean it's word for word the test. If he gives a quiz it's for extra credit. There is no home work, no group projects and no papers. He just talks there is no power point. You may have to open the book to get some clarity.

Comment:

MR. Hope is a nice man, kind of a boring class though. Took him for both parts of US history. You don't really need the book but must take notes because his tests will be comprised of what he lectures on, not necessarily what the book goes by. He is fair and clear about what to expect.

Comment:

The only good thing about this class is you only have 4 tests. 3 tests and a final, and if you do well on the 3 tests, you do not have to take the final. He does not use any visuals like powerpoint, he just sits on the table and talks the entire time, while you are trying to keep up with what he is saying. PAY ATTENTION OR YOU WILL MISS IT

Comment:

I recommend him for 1302. I feel he likes this time period more and it shows in the lectures. If you pay attention, you don't need the book or even to take notes. Just fill out the review as he talks and you are good for the test. Super nice too. He is clearly a big military history guy (like myself) and he even lent me his own DVDs to watch.

I ACTUALLY LIKE HISTORY BUT THIS CLASS IS TOTALLY BORING. THE REVIEWS ARE LIKE THE TEST BUT IT DOESNT ALWAYS GO ALONG WITH THE BOOK AND HE TALKS FAST IN LECTURE WITH NO POWER POINT. AND HE OFTEN RAMBLES ON ABOUT HIS OWN LIFE. I WOULDNT TAKE HIM AGAIN.

His reviews are very tricky. Take notes during his lectures no matter how fast he mumbles. 4 tests, and he drops one. The only reason you would need the book is bc he talks way to fast and no pw pts to use. Book helped me get an A. Use the one @ the library.

Comment:

I regret taking him. Had all A's and B's until his class. Doesn't do powerpoints.. Just sits and talks. You have to listen. He talks fast. His test are tricky. It will start with a sentence that you have to finish off. Ex. "Democrats did.." Find it. He's cool. Doesn't care about phones, sleeping, or tardiness. Avoid if you don't care about history.

His class is easy minus the fact that he doesn't have power points, strays away from the lecture and majority of it doesn't match up to the text book he suggest we get. Reviews are our test but he isn't specific on what he wants us to know exactly, very vague on his expectations.

Comment:

Extremely boring teacher. He doesn't have power points or any notes, all he does is sit down and lecture. No homework or class assignments only 5 tests. Tests are like reviews, multiple choice, matching & t/f. But can be hard. I honestly don't recommend him to anyone especially if you don't like history!
