I enjoyed this class so so much. I felt like I learned a lot in this class, I took this class my first semester at evc and I did not regret not one bit of it. I was entertained. If you really put in the attention and the work you will get a good grade, I passed with an A.

professor Nava is very nice , all her assignments were esay to understand. If you pay attention in class and do the extra credit work you will pass with a good grade. The essay questions she asks on the test are simple and if you really pay attention in class you will be able to write and excellent paper, everything she talks about in class helps.

Comment:

Nava always looks super intimidating at first, but she really just wants her class to pass. All three of her tests are written, but she gives you the prompts before hand. She drops your lowest exam grade, and if you get an A on the first two exams, you're excused from the third. Lectures can be confusing, but with a little research you should be ok

Took her for 17A and 17B. Let me tell you, before I never thought it was possible for me to be slightly good at history, it would go in one ear and out the other. Her lectures are amazing and I love the way she grades. She pushes you to do your best and really cares. I wish she taught more classes!!

Comment:

I havent finished yet but she is super loud and opinionated. She complains no one reads the "assigned chapters" but she's never assigned any. On top of that, in the start of semester she said the textbook wasnt required but now she says it is. Thinks she's cool but isn't.

I've took her for 17a & 17b because she's an amazing teacher. She really wants to make sure you pass and will help you in several ways! She gives extra credit and drops an exam which helps a lot so don't be discouraged if you start of the semester rocky. Try your best and you will get the grade.

Really great teacher. Seems strict at first but once you get to know her she just cares about you and wants you to pass her class. Gives alot of opportunities for you to pass the class so its really entirely up to you to decide the grade that you want.

Awesome teacher. She can seem strict at first and at times, but she's very nice and wants every student to succeed. Her class consists of essay exams and one group presentation. She does drop your lowest grade on the exams and offers extra credit throughout the semester. Come to class, pay attention, take notes, and you'll be fine.

Comment:

Professor Nava was my first history professor that I chose during my first year at EVC. Honestly, I was scared at first but realized that professor Nava isn't as hard as it seems. To be successful in the class, you got to work hard, read your materials, and takes notes. I took professor Nava for History 17A, and History 17B and I really like it.

Professor Nava is one of the best history professors I've ever had! There are three exams and the final is a group project! There is really no way of failing her class unless you don't try of course. I definitely recommend!

Comment:

This professor has got to be an outstanding example for someone who has lost their passion to teach. She drones on and on during class, doesn't make instructions clear, judges students, and belittles them throughout the semester. She does offer extra credit, a bad grade drop, and an easy test system; dealing with her throughout the year is tough.

She drops your lowest score on the exam to give you a good grade and she gives plenty of extra credit so it's impossible to get a bad grade in her class unless you don't try. Just take notes from her lectures and write down the key points in exams to do well. :)

Comment:

Great professor! There were 3 tests; all essays in class. I got a complete F on the first essay. I thought I was gonna fail the class, but it was my fault because she gives you the essay questions before so you have time to write a draft. Anyway, I got an A on the last 2 essays and passed the class with an A! Loved it! (1 group presentation)

Comment:

I am no history or writing fan to start. I took 2 classes before with other instructors and failed miserably. When I took Nava for 17B I loved the way she taught and talked about history. She made it sound more intriguing to learn and understand. Of course I took her class again for 17A. Mention key point in essays and you're fine. Best Hist Prof

She may seem hard or strict at first but she's a very nice teacher! She'll drop your lowest grade so it helps you out a bit. ) A lot of reading, but its history what do you expect? In class lectures aren't as bad either because she rewords everything in her own way and shows a movie clip

I've never been a big history fan because I always found it to be boring, but Nava is so passionate about history that I paid full attention in class. She's really passionate about what she does and tries her best to show everyone what they can achieve. Just take good notes and you'll do fine on the tests. Always be on time and be respectful.

Took her for Women's history. She's amazing! I would take her again if I could she is passionate about teaching, passionate about women's rights!!Class is easy if you don't slack off. I fell behind but knows if you're trying but just struggling in life or if you are really just not caring about coming to class. I passed with a B yey!
