Comment:

His class was completely based on the lecture with the exception of a term paper. He doesn't use slides, textbooks, study guides, or ilearn. You have to attend lecture and take good notes. Some of the questions on the exam are on things that he said in lecture that are very specific and seemingly unimportant. He canceled the final for my class.

He's the grandpa you'll never have. Theres three big tests and one paper. He's very lecture heavy and uses no technology. Its like taking a class from the 50's. If you show up to class you'll pass/

Comment:

There are only 3 exams. This includes the final (the final wasn't accumulative). Pay attention to his lectures because not all questions from the test can be answered from the print-out handout. Overall, he is a very passionate, and respected professor. Definitely take him! P.S He rarely takes roles

Comment:

Easy A, doesn't take attendance HOWEVER he is SUPER CONSERVATIVE and may offend some people. Still refers to Native Americans as "Indians" because "that's what they've been called for so long" and hardly talks about slavery in US history (or anything related to race discrimination). Also, low-key praises Trump. Easy class, but I didn't like him.

Comment:

Prof Germany is the best teacher I have ever had. He teaches history by telling interesting stories. Stylish and extremely admirable. From his response to questions people ask in class you can tell he is very wise. You will respect him so much by listening to him. Learned so much from him and felt so sad wish I could take another class with him.

Comment:

He's a nice old man who answers any question with pleasure. No iLearn or emails though. He only checks attendance once a semester (at the end). Pretty easy class since he gives a reader (notes). However, attend and pay attention in class : not ALL exams questions can be answered with the reader. No homework, only 3 True/False exams. An easy A or B.

He is popular for the HIST 130 class for international students. He is an stylish old man. Very passionate on history. However, you have to study lots of knolwedge. 3 exams with T/F and you are done. No mandatory except for the last 3 weeks before final.

A humorous, amiable and stylish old man. Every time he walks in classroom with a cane, dressing in suit and wearing a hat. No textbook but only a syllabus that you should download and print out. The content is easy to understand. Totally 3 exams with multiple choice & T or F. If you take every class and listen carefully, they are very easy.

He makes a boring topic less so. He teaches like he is narrating a story. He goes off on a tangent sometimes. This reduces the monotonicity and keeps things interesting.

Germany is awesome! He makes everything quite interesting and tells a lot of anecdotes. He has notes as hand outs which all you need for the exam. No book. 3 exams - pretty easy. Just come and listen to his stories and get an easy A. Got him few times after the class to discuss current issues, fascinating man! ps: He is incredibly stylish too lol!

AWESOMEST TEACHER EVER!!! he is a funny old man, very old fashion espcially in the way he talks. His test are lecture based and are all multiple choice, so attending class is very important. made my summer go by really fast. reminds me of Rich Uncle Pennybag from monopoly.

Easy class. Very nice teacher. It is impossible not to pass the class unless you don't put any efforts. Just read the notes and then you can pass easily.

Comment:

Dr. Germany is an interesting lecturer - he managed to make a summer session of history I'm not particularly interested in compelling. A great orator, a snappy dresser and a very nice man. I went to class, took notes, barely touched the book and had a good time earning my A-

Germany was an amazing prof! He is so stylish, is VERY nice and is super old school. He teaches purely through lectures, you have a few exams and a term paper. I didn't attend class at all - went to all the exams and didn't turn in the term paper. Got a B-

Comment:

Yes he knows a lot but that doesn't mean he teaches well. the info he gives in lectures does not match up with the textbook. I can't trust his lectures because he stutters and says one thing, drifts off, and then say something completely different. Its hard to keep up since he throws in info you don't need and mixes it with the few important info
