Ann is one of the most amazing teacher I have ever had. Her passion for history rubs off on you.She does not have a huge work load, but you will work hard. If you only do one thing at RCC take her class and be prepared to be amazed.
Ann is an AWESOME teacher! I hated-I meen hated History before her class. The telecourse is awesome but, be prepared to work. Lots of reading and writing. I love the way that she cares about her students. She really wants you to understand where our country came from as well as pass the class. Great
Ann is an excellent teacher. By far, the best I've had at RCC. She is concise and efficient, fair and very caring of her students.
This teacher is the reason students go to school and enjoy it. She will inspire a future president or senator. I really enjoyed her class and hope she will still be teaching when my little ones go to college.
taking history 34 right now. i loved her in hist 7. she is the best teacher at rcc that i have come across so far, take her classes you will love it. she is so passionate about history, i swear it is like watching your favorite movie, she is just too animated. thanks for making history fun.
took her twice because shes so amazing. she makes the class extremely interesting. there is mostly just the midterm & final & one major paper based off a book.
I took her twice and I regret that she doesn't have more to offer. She is probably the best professor I have ever had at RCC. Even when I see her on campus, she still goes out of her way to say hi to me. She is a class act where other professor do not take the time to learn your name, she will
She's the first teacher I ever had at RCC and she spoiled it for me. Few teachers can even match her let alone surpass her. I recommend the class for everyone that is even remotely interested in history. She is a really cool gal and she even made muffins for us once. How cool is that? She's hot too!
By far the best teacher I have ever had and will ever have. She a very cool yet hyper teacher. Her lectures are interesting and insightful. Her work schedule is very easy. I wish she offered more classes. I would highly recommend this class to everybody because she is the best.
Take Her! She's one of the best teachers i've ever had & more teachers should be like her! She makes history really interesting and the assignments are really easy too.
Take her. She is a great history teacher. Very passionate. I loved the class. The work and test where also fairly easy!
I loved Anne. her teaching style is wonderful and she one of the few who can actually keep you awake in history class!
Best teacher at RCC...she really loves history!!! I would definately recommend her...best of all, no tests & easy homework
Very Good Teacher.....Take Her...Never A Dull Moment...
i've taken her for both history 6 and 7 just because she's the only history teacher i'd ever take. she's by far the best teacher, not only within her subject but on campus. she is truly passionate about her occupation and very successful within the classroom. you will not regret taking this class. She's also extremely attractive....
I know this sounds rediculas, but I'm a history major who HATES American History, but I have never taken a more fun, interesting, and intightful class in my life...Ann Rocks
What can I say, I saw the comments here and decided to take the class. I definitely was not disappointed with my decision as Ann provided an excellent experience. Lectures were never boring, and workload was not bad at all. All I can say now is can't wait to take womyn's history!
Pfeifle is such a great teacher! I took her as a telecourse and regreted it because she is so good at lecture! I plan on taking her again for his 34 in spring!
Pfeifle is the best teacher I have ever had. She knows her stuff, and she makes history fun (which is hard to do). I would take any class that she offers if I get a chance.
Just take her, shes great!
What can I say...I LOVE Ann, she is the best history teacher ever! I have never liked history, the facts never stuck in my head, but she is so interesting everything just sinks in! I would highly recom. her. I plan on taking another history class of hers!
I wish I could take a class of hers every semester to break up the monatony of my others. She's awesome, and totally into the subject. Makes you live history not just read about it.
DO NOT take her online-telecourse class...you will be making the biggest mistake of your life in comletely missing the essence of Ann. Her lectures are amazing, and you will never fall asleep!
SHE IS EXCELLENT! EASY TO UNDERSTAND DIDNT MAKE IT COMPLICATED VERY ANIMATED. I LEARNED ALOT AND ENJOYED HER CLASS. IF YOU HATE HISTORY YOU WILL LOVE THIS CLASS! I HATED HISTORY, BUT SHE DEFINETELY MADE IT FUN! TAKE HER FOR SURE GREAT TEACHER!
I have never seen a teacher so passionate about the subject they teach. She made me want to be a history major. She is GRRRRREEEAAATT! please take her. She is so animated and you will never fall asleep and actually find yourself asking more questions and wanting to know more. She is cool, flexible and helpful if you hsve problems talk to her and sh
SHE IS THE BEST HISTORY TEACHER! I HATE HISTORY AND SHE MADE IT FUN AND INTERESTING. I LEARNED SO MUCH. IF YOU FEAR OR DONT LIKE HISTORY TAKE HER. TESTS ARE NOT BAD AT ALL, JUST DO YOUR READING AND ATTEND CLASS. SHE IS AWESOME!!
She is the best history teacher I have ever had. Although she is a left wing liberal, just ignore that if you are a right wing republican and you can learn alot.She is very energetic and shows alot of videos. No test just 30min. of who,what,where,why,&when from your readings. Easy A if you go to class.
Professor Pfeifle is funny-funny, she makes her classes very entretaining, great teacher. She helps you a lot if you get behind. Do your historical terms. Her tests are very easy. She is very understanding and she knows her subject to perfection. The best teacher I have ever had!!!!!
the comment about her being a left-wing liberal is just ignorant. that really doesn't matter when it comes to ann, because she knows how to teach in a way that is entertaining, interesting, and informative.
Wow it's already been said. She's really attentive to students and she's super animated. You won't fall asleep. Plus, she's really smart too. Take her.
FANTASTIC TEACHER....REALLY MAKES HISTORY COME ALIVE. VERY APPROACHABLE AND IS WILLING TO WORK WITH YOU. MAKES SURE THAT THE BOOKS SHE REQUIRES ARE VERY INEXPENSIVE BECAUSE YOU ARE THERE BY CHOICE AND TO LEARN AND NOT TO GO BROKE.
great professor, you will never be bored in class. attend all meeetings and you will do fine in class.
Ann is a great Professor. This course was slightly stressful as far as essays, but that's to be expected. My essays were probably not that great, but she gave me A's on them. She's a very nice gal who's very approachable if you need to miss class for some reason. I highly recommend her classes.
Best teacher ever! Keeps students interested, very passionate about what she does alot of work but you turn everything in you will do good.
assigned alot of essays, book was not the best, cheap, but info in book jump around was not a good choice.
i hated history with a passion before i took this class. OMG she is so good! she makes history fun and tells it like a story. daily videos. lectures. jokes. A+++ you cant get better than her.
she is amazing and animated and comedic her work load is very applicable and she makes history come to life. she is very intellegent and is very keen on what u need to know relative to the level of history you have to take. She grades fairly and is organized.
This teacher is the best history teacher i've ever had. She entertains you with humor and makes history fun. you get a funny lecture in the beginning of class and end it with a video. The only bad thing is those damn terms but if you keep up with them the class is a zinch. You will definitely enjoy this class, even if you hate history.
Such a COOL teacher. By far the coolest teacher i've ever had. She's funny, passionate, and makes such a dry subject interesting. The videos suck, and she grades kinda hard too. She can EASILY tell if you don't put your all into an assignment. Read the readers early for the final paper!! TAKE HER!!
One of the funniest and best professors you will ever have. She keeps you laughing and interested in the subject the best you can. Yeah the movies aren't the best but sometimes its okay just to sit there and veg instead of listening to a lecture. History 6 is boring so take History 7 with her instead!
Great teacher! I took two of her history classes back to back and was sad when they ended. She's hilarious and makes every class really enjoyable. You can tell she loves her job.
She is great! Simple as that. Very passionate about what she teaches.
super dope teaching ability. super funny and entertaining. shes a loopy nut job and knows it and uses it to the students teaching ability
I love this teacher! She is so hilarious, very non-prejudice and kind. She talks about the parts of history that most people don't mention, and is so passionate about her subjects. Highly Highly recommend this prof.
Very funny and explains things very clearly.
wonderful teacher, she is a great professor. she has a great way to get you inderested in history and explains the whole picture of hisroty not just one piece of it. GREAT TEACHER, highly recommendable!
Great Teacher!!! Funny and very helful.EASY class.Not lots of work. Easy A. No test. She grades students from History terms. Every week she assigns terms and you just have to look for info. the signifance of the term.
Ann is a wonderful person and instructor.Her class is fun and you will love history after taking this class.Ann is naturally funny,she doesn't have to try at all.Bis bonus; no tests or final!!!!! LOVED HER!!!!
Ann is a wonderful person and instructor.Her class is fun and you will love history after taking this class.Ann is naturally funny,she doesn't have to try at all.Big bonus; no tests or final!!!!! LOVED HER!!!!
This lady is AWESOME!!! She's funny and she obviously loves what she teaches. The class is a little difficult but if you stay with it it's not bad at all. I wish she taught more subjects so I could take her again! I'd recommend her class to everyone!!!
Helpful, and teaches in a fun way that makes everyone want to come to class. It was the 2nd day of class and people were still sitting on the floor to get her class, she is awesome! and hillarious
Love Love Love this teacher. She loves History and loves teaching history. I was never really into History before I came to this class and now I can't stop watching the History Channel. She makes class super fun and entertaining. I wish we had more teachers like her to make learning fun.
My first day I was shocked to find a white lady teaching Afro. American history, but I learned so much. I really like her and her class!
such a funny teacher makes me want to come back to class every week I enjoy her lectures compared to alot of mundane lengthy classes !
Take her! Passionate about the subject, funny & loves to teach. Work load is heavy (lots of mini-reports), but if you do it she grades fairly leniently. I learned a lot and I used to hate history.
I enjoyed the class and as long as I took the time to do my work, I got As on everything. It's easy to exceed the point value as long as u come to class. The hardest assignment is the book report.
I was suprised to find that Ann was teaching black history. But she teaches it well and I feel comfortable talking to her about the past. I hope she countines to keep the passion for history and stay in the field. I imagine her retiring at a history museum or something. She cares a lot for her students and she is definately in my top 3. She's awesome inside and out. I had for history 6 and 7.
Nice teacher but so much work! Don't fall behind in your readings because they take forever to do and are a little hard to understand.
Mrs. Pfeifle is a very enthusiastic lady who has a great sense of humor. She always love to hear students' opinion of History. It is an easy class if everything is done on time. Do not fall behind with the terms she assigned and read the books! It's an easy class, but it wont be for slackers!
Ms. Pfeifle is a hilarious teacher who makes learning history lots of fun. Make sure to not fall behind on all the reading or you'll regret it later. Other than all the reading, i enjoyed the class VERY muh
She's great, i got an A and her class is not hard at all. i would recomend her classes to everyone she makes history not lame:)
Her class was fun! But she changed her class guidelines. She now does essays, midterms, finals, and so on. Prior to her class, I heard that all she gave out was definitions but she told us that now she will give us tests and essays. The workload is very heavy, lots of reading and memorizing sources! Its crazy. But she is AWESOME!!!!
Great teacher and made history fun for once in my life. Great getting the social aspects of history and very enthusiastic atmosphere.
First things first, SHE'S HILARIOUS !!! Her class is tons of fun and it was so enjoyable that i just might take another one of her history classes just for fun. I hate history, but her enthusiasm made me love it. Don't go with any other professor for history
Professor Pfeifle is an absolute jewel. She obviously loves her job (history gives her actual goosebumbs!) and is interested in every one of her students. Goes well beyond what is required of her to help her students out, and makes class interesting and enjoyable. Will definitely take her again! Highly highly recommend!
a very great teacher. one of the best. you will learn alot in her class. it wil be very easy for you if you try...i took her class twice for history 6 and 7. i passed both with an A..TAKE HER CLASS NOW....or else
What a great Professor! Her class is truly inspirational. If you weren't interested in history before taking this course, you definitely will be afterwards. This is a professor that honestly loves her job; and it shows!
She's so humble, inspiring, and compassionate. I love her and her teaching style. I will take another class with her HIS 7 or HIS 14.
Great class with an amazing teacher who really knows and loves the subject she teaches!!
Very Animated, refreshing to have an Instructor who loves the subject they teach! She is a bit all over the place, read your text, use online material to quiz yourself and read syllabus and you'll get an A. (I used {optional}online material too late in the course and received a B) USE YOUR RESOURCES!!!
Great class and an amazing teacher who really knows and loves the subject she teaches!!
Loved her! She made history tolerable. Must put effort into her assignments and study for her tests, an A is very doable. Only needed one history class but I might take another class she offers, that's how good she is.
This woman is a history genius! She is passionate, fun, and exciting. She is my favorite professor. The level of conversation is high for history buffs but keeps the layman interested also. YOU WILL NOT FIND A BETTER TEACHER on any of the 3 campuses, for any subject. This is history on STEROIDS!
There are some papers to turn in but she is an esy grader. Her test can be challenging if you do not prepare. However, it was an entertaining class and if you attend class, there is no reason not to pass her class.
She is amazing!! Her class are not boring at all. You get to cover many interesting subjects and participate in the discussions. There is a lot of reading involved if you want a good grade. Tests are not hard if you do the reading. There is an awesome book you have to read and do an essay on, but its worth the read. Definitely take her.
Took both of history honors classes and she is amazing. She is a great person and an even better professor. :]
She is cool and witty. Here class is good....TAKE THIS CLASS
Best teacher EVER!! She made me LOVE history and i use to hate it. She made history come to live and explained it so good. I nominate her best history teacher that ever existed :)
Amazing! Such a sweet and eneregtic teacher. She gives a unique twist on history that I had never experienced before.
Honestly, I usually hate 3 hour long classes, especially when they're on Mondays but she made me actually look forward to coming to class every week. I have never met a professor with such passion about what she teaches. She is SO incredibly funny and witty. I wish I could have her as my professor for all my classes
She has to be one of the most awesome professors ever! She's very knowledgeable! She also gives you candy if you visit her office!
I never used to enjoy history class back in high school, but I loved lecture with pfiefle because she made history interesting to learn about. She made us read the book by giving us a source analysis paper to do. SMART. If it wasn't for that I would have never cracked my book open. Quite a few papers than I expected but everything was easy and fun
She is funny! Although history was a subject I was never interested in, I enjoyed this class more than anything. Ann is a rare person who loves what she does. Take her!!!!
She is one of the BEST professors I've ever taken. She doesn't make history boring, but rather more of a story. When she lectures, it's like you're almost there during the time period of that historical moment
Amazing Professor. She is honestly the best. If it weren't for her class, I would've ripped my hair out since my other teachers were so boring. Pfeifle is extremely funny and nice.
Ann is awesome. I'm a bit sad that I cant take anymore history classes due to my ed plan. I am strongly considering my minor in A.A. History because I am that convinced by Ann. She's very involved and concerned about her students education. She teaches with passion and conviction. If you don't consider Ann's class then I feel sorry for you.
Great teacher one of the beat. She gets into it and enjoys her class. Does not use power points though. So be good at listening, and taking good notes. Not many assignments.
Hands down one of the best I've ever had. She will make you LOVE history. Naturally hilarious, she will make you cry from laughter. Her lectures include you--that is you have much opportunity to voice your opinion in class. Had to do 3 major assignments (source analysis, project, essay), midterm had an essay+mult. choice. Final had take home essay.
Ann makes history fun to learn, even if the class is 3 hours. She keeps you entertained the whole time. There are not very many assignments, but the few she assigns are big, somewhat difficult, and worth a lot of your grade. If history is not your thing, take it with Ann. She makes it worthwhile.
Nice prof. Gives out study guide, 15 points extra credit, take home final essay, essay 4 pages essay to submit almost at the end of the semester. Very knowledgeable, helpful and energetic.
I took her class twice because I failed the first time, but because it was mu fault. The second time I put so much effort and I passed it! She really loves to teach and her class doesn't see like a class but rather as a group of ppl discussing. You'll love her class
great teacher took her class twice his 6 and 7 everything was clear and to the point. she makes the class fun and easy to interact.
Stays on schedule, give an opportunity to raise grades with essay and reports. She does s whole lot of talking, but has a great personality. If you fail the test but ace the papers you will pass with a solid B.
Her lectures are long but very entertaining. the essays she gives are a little long but if you read the books assigned then you'll pass. You need to be there everyday or you will miss something. Read what is assigned.
I truly admired her teaching and attentitiveness. She grades very quickly and answers all concerns. Easy to talk to about assignments and help needed. Despite having tons of students she remembers them all. The lectures don't drag on unless you haven't slept. Do the work on time and you'll pass! It's given in the beginning of the semester.
Do your homework. Finish your work on time.
I took her for summer. She is very nice and her lectures are very entertaining! The downside was she required you to purchase a new online book for the code ($75). There was no way out of that due to the tests being online with the book. Besides that she made the 3 hours fly by. She assigned a ton of work, but it was still a good class.
SHE IS AMAZING!!! TAKE HER! TAKE HER!!!! TAKEEEEEE HER!!!!!!
I recommend to take this teacher she is an amazing teacher, I loved her class and honestly I would take her class again. Not really a history major, but she makes history want to become my major. She gives homework of course, but its not hard.
I have taken her for history 6 and 7 . Her lectures are very interesting, fun, and she doesn't read from a book. She is very enthusiastic every lecture and knows what she is talking about . The projects are fun and reading is fair. The essays given are reasonable and youre given more than enough time in advance to complete them. strongly recommend
Her class is never boring and the grading is more than fair. There is a lot of reading but the homework is fair. The projects are fun and essays are reasonable. Every assignment is given on day one and you have more than enough time to finish. Her lectures are very enthusiastic and she is really eager to working with you. participation fun.
She is pure comedy and has a wonderful personality. She will make you laugh a lot. This class was late at night and 3 hours long, but never boring. She is very fair with the grading. You have to write some papers and visit a museum, but it was a great experience. Also, there is some extra credit available. I highly recommend this instructor.
IF YOU HATE HISTORY TAKE HER!! Great Professor! Her Lectures are hilarious, there is a lot of reading but its optional (recommend you do for your midterm and final) there is extra credit and a project but its soon stinking easy. there is a book she might have you read so get a head start. other than that she was great, made me like history again.
Take her if you don't like history. Even if it's just a required class to take. It's a class you won't get bored. She's funny. Explains everything clearly. There's a book report and a project that aren't hard. Plus only two test which she explains what to expect. If you put the effort, you should get a good grade in the class.
I've taken as many classes as I could with Ann - she suggests to call her that as she prefers it to anything else. She' made History interesting and is always lively and informational. There are a couple of tests and some essays, but that's all you really have to worry about. Pay attention in class and do some reading if you need!
Her History of American Women was seriously so much fun. She was always clear and unbiased when she lectured so please don't think that she's in there throwing men under the bus. The books were super interesting to read and I never missed a single lecture due to my high interest. Please take it, especially if you're male! It makes her happy to see.
I want to add more tags like Get Ready To Read with which her is not a bad thing. I also want to add Hilarious and Gives Good Feedback. She's awesome and I recommend her immensely!
I despised History until I took her class. She cares about her students and is passionate about teaching. She is funny, provides extra credit, and her grading is very clear. She wants to connect with her class and does so with ease. No pop quizzes, a few essays, reading was not heavy. I loved this class and recommend her to anyone!
Fun and funny does not equal a good teacher.
She is awesome. I love her views on History.
She is easily accessible and is approachable and makes learning history so much fun.
She's awesome
Awesome!!!! Best History Professor/Teacher I've ever had!!! I absolutely loved Mrs. Pfeifle's class Hist 7. She gives the best lectures that keep you intrigued and her assignments keep you on task with the course. I would most definitely recommend Mrs. Pfeifle to anyone that has to take a history class because she makes history exciting.
She was awesome!! She is very funny and down to earth. Her lectures keep your attention. She works with and wants you to pass. Her grading is pretty simple. Loved her! I would take her again, she is happy and very inspirational.
She is very funny, laid back. She is very nice too. Her work is not hard, it is online work. Easy class.
Professor Pfeifle is the best professor I have ever had in my college career. She is so passionate about history and she makes it so easy to understand. She seriously made me rethink my major because I found history so intriguing when listening to her speak. I definitely recommend her! You will not regret it!
Great professor. Goes of topic at times but it's always about history. Really understanding about outside problems and stuff, will work things out with students.
I am not much of a Hist fanatic but her class gets you into it. Do all the work, read ,study, attend class & you should be able to learn a lot and understand her class. Such a great Professor. Took her for 6 weeks & would do it again. She answers questions properly and takes time after class if needed. Motivated me to take another Hist. class.
Absolutely loved this class. Her lectures will keep you engaged in learning history. She is funny, full of energy, and full of information. As long as you do all your assignments you should get an A or B. She is flexible and is available to answer questions after class. She is definitely one of my favorite professors. Took her in Fall of 2016.
Awesome teacher...
If you can take her class, take it. She definitely knows history and is passionate about it and that shows in her lectures and her life stories. The class is interesting and you learn a lot. Lots of interesting videos too. Just read the book and the class will be a breeze! I absolutely recommend her to anyone who needs a history class.
If you get the opportunity to take Ann's class, ANY of Ann's classes, you are doing yourself a favor. She is an amazing lecturer, she loves and encourages class participation. I took her for three separate classes, two of which I did not need. She is accessible outside of class, she is involved and she cares about her students. Best professor!!
10/10 amazing teach changed my life literally there is really no other option than Ann!!!
Professor Ann was amazing! She's really passionate about the lecture material, and she provides good feedback on all major assignments. There's extra credit available. If you're on top of everything, it's an easy A, but I dont recommend skipping class!
Awsome!
Wonderful, hilarious, inspirational and dedicated professor. Make sure you read and are participating in class discussions if you are taking the honors course. Papers are due about every other week. It wasn't always easy to score a high grade on the essays. Luckily, there are other ways to keep up your grade if essays are not easy you!
Shes an amazing teacher yes you write papers but what she talks about is amazing am taking her African American history class as well
Not a PowerPoint lecturer. Her lectures are very interesting plus shes pretty funny. Personally it was hard to follow along without PowerPoint slides but thats just me. You have to read a book and write a 5 page essay. 3 other small papers (3-4 paragraphs). 5 paragraph essay on midterm and final. We got a take home final *thumbs up*
Professor Pfeifle is awesome, love her lectures, test questions are a little difficult but overall all essays and assignments are easy. She is understanding with any personal problem you might have but dont take advantage as she is a great teacher.
Ann is an outstanding professor. Her lectures aren't traditional (no powerpoint) but are much more effective & interesting. It might be hard to keep up, but its worth it for the funny moments. If you follow her assignment requirements, you'll be fine. Just make sure to at least skim the textbook. Overall best lecturer I've had up to date.
She is the most considerate and passionate teacher Ive ever had. You are lucky to take her if you get the chance! She made me so excited to learn history.
Ann is absolutely one of the best history professors and is one of the best professors period. Make sure you do your readings and your essays and youll be fine. Shes fun and energetic.
I usually HATE History. Pfeifle made the class one of my absolute favorites. She is incredibly passionate about her subject, and she's always so enthusiastic and excited to share her knowledge to the point it's contagious! I've never been so interested in a history class in my life! Lots of writing. All homework and exams are essays.
Favorite class Ive had so far. She made learning fun. Get ready to write a lot of essays. As long as you know your stuff you should be good. Would definitely take her again.
I would definitely recommend Professor Pfeifle for History 6. There are quite a few writing assignments, but shes a fair grader. Shes very funny and energetic. Youll need to read a book, and visit a museum for two essay assignments. Written and multiple choice exams. No powerpoint, lectures are all verbal w/ videos to supplement.
Would highly recommend taking Ann if interested in history. Even if you don't like the subject, she makes it a lot better. Lectures are fun and interactive, a good balance of verbal and video. Only 3 assignments and 2 exams, straightforward and easy if you give yourself time. Offers EC near end. Appreciate her kindness and don't take advantage!
She makes history so much better! I took an 8 am class and she made being awake so early worth it. Two exams and extra credit is offered. She doesn't go off lecture slides which is different but makes for a better experience in my opinion. Very funny and really caring.
Ann is an amazing professor. Very understanding, funny and helpful. I learned so much in her class, and the reading is very interesting. Book is free.
So funny hands down my favorite professor! super funny and interactive
She is a very great professor I ever had and it easy to get an A as long you do the discussion board and also their question primary source and 2 essays in midterm and final. One thing there is a chapter essay and history project just ahead up. Also, you don't have to buy a textbook because she will provide you with an online website and text.
discussion posts that where due every sunday but i felt like she was a tough grader for discussion post. We also had to do a history project essay, midterm essay & essay on this book she has us read and then finally the final exam essay. Was also a tough grader on that and felt like it was Eng class. Didn't have to purchase textbook she provides
Ann Pfeifle is amazing and very informative when it comes to History. You will be excited to share what you learned with your family and friends.
You can tell she's passionate about the material by her lectures. She's also really funny. There are some readings but very few assignment just make sure you don't procrastinate like I did.
Her syllabus is all over the place and doesn't respond to students.
She grades as if she was a strict English teacher. She never gave me full points , always a 9/10 or 8/10 and I followed assignment guidelines.
The whole course is based on reading two books and writing 5 essays through the semester along with weekly discussion posts. Her grading is very strict, almost felt like I was taking an English course instead of history. I received an 86% in her class and she still gave me a C. The class is very boring, she for seem too enthusiastic about teaching
I believe it is the students that don't put the work and study time for class that leave bad reviews. This Professor is very understanding and if you need help or extension for a date she will help out if you communicate on time. Her class was very informative, and the final was very fun assignment grading is not as tough.
Solid professor. I took this class in six weeks and received about as much work as I expected to when going in. Exams/Midterms are worth a large chunk of the grade and have an essay embedded within them. Additionally, there is another essay on a book I didn't read. Essay was also worth a large percentage of the grade, which is why I ended with a C.
I loved Ann, she had amazing lectures and was very caring and understanding when outside life happens. The exams were essays and book questions, but overall easy. If you want a super chill class take Ann.
She makes the course not too difficult. 5 assignments worth 20% of the grade: Midterm, Two papers, Final, and Participation. Her lectures are engaging and entertaining. She generally did not reply to emails so make sure to ask questions in class.
Professor Ann is engaging and makes the course manageable. Assignments include discussions, essays, and exams. Unstuck AI was a helpful study tool alongside the provided materials. Overall, a solid class option.
IF YOU TAKE A SUMMER CLASS WITH THIS TEACHER, YOU BETTER HAVE GOOD TIME MANAGEMENT! She does not assign as much work as some other professors, but the work itself is a lot. Essays are a huge thing for this professor, so stay on top of it and do NOT lag behind. She takes a long time to respond to emails and is a hard grader so watch out.
I really enjoyed Professor Pfeifle's class. Her lectures were informative and fairly entertaining. Grades are based on 2 essays, the midterm exam, and the final exam (both of which include essays, and psrticipation. She's a very easy grader - just do the work.
