Professor Holub is wonderful. She is very nice and clear with her grading policy. Her class is easy as ling as you complete the assignment. Be ready to read the textbook! Not too many assignments but the ones you have to do will be counted and are pretty easy.

She is the greatest professor ever. You have a small group project but you get the whole semester to do the project. I took her Aug.-Dec. You have a final and a midterm over videos you watch. Last but not least an easy my story which is 6+ pages but again you get all semester. Not hard at all.

Great prof. like her daughter. She makes learning about our pluralistic society interesting with one group project. You will leave each day with a belly full of new foods and a mind full of knowledge. No final test, just a long final assignment, but it can be done in 2-3 days but she gives you a whole month.

Professor Holub is GREAT! She is caring and sends daily emails with her personal stories which are inspiring. She is only a text away and gives good details in her online class. She is always there to help and make sure her students are understanding the work and readings. Totally recommend!

Absolutely loved Prof. Holub! She is adorable and funny and has great stories. There's only like 3 assignments. Final is A LOT of work, but you have plenty of time in advance. She really likes to have good discussions that make you think. Definitely take her!

She is HILARIOUS! Easy work. One presentation with a partner. The final is a bit much BUT she gives it to you a month in advanced! There's really not a reason why you shouldn't make an A+! Would take again in a heartbeat. TAKE HER!

Prof. Holub is hands-down one of the BEST professors! She truly cares about her students and is quick to respond if you need help with something. I loved her stories and lectures- she is hilarious. Maybe split the textbook with someone because you barely use it, but still needed. *Bonus: food provided in every class! Take her before she retires!!!

She is one of the best professors I have had, and is very laid back! She is helpful with assignments and will answer any questions you have. You have one group project, and a few assignments throughout the semester! I recommend taking her!

Best professor I have had so far. She made me so excited to be in the education field and was always so positive and inspiring. Her classes and presentations were SO fun, food in every class. Sadly, she may be retiring but she made a heavy impact on me for sure

I enjoyed this class. She is very opinionated and funny. She's a cute little lady. We had to do a presentation and a few other assignments. The FINAL is crazy - Very easy, but ALOT of busy work. Other that, i'd take her again. Definitely an EASY A!

Class was completely useless and not college level whatsoever.You will be set up in groups and do a presentation every class. The students basically teach the class, and you learn very little. It's a shame because the class could be helpful. She is very rude at times, don't be surprised if you catch her on her phone while you do your presentation.

She is great! Her assingments are fairly easy, and as long as you try she will give you the points. Her midterm is based on a video you will watch, no actual testing. You will only use your book for your group presentation. Presentations can be a bit boring, BUT she is not. She will give you a clear understanding of multicultrual in a classroom.

Mrs. Holub makes you feel wanted in her classroom, she tells a lot of good stories. Very few assignments, but class is mandatory! Best teacher yet at UHCL.

I have taken every class that Mrs. Holub teaches. She is wonderful. I enjoy taking her classes and have learned a lot in each one. It is important to do the work and not wait to the last minute. There is a lot of work required, but Mrs. Holub makes it fun and explains the expectations very well.She is a grat teacher.

Very good professor. This class was "easy" I suppose...as long as you do the work. I think if you don't stay on top of the assignments then it's not a very easy class at all. Taking her again next semester!

Teacher is interesting and funny. This is an ultra easy class... never had a real test and all assessments are done either by completion grade or by assignments that are more like small homeworks. Minimal work, easy work and easy grading.
