Ms Kalisa is very nice although sometimes she is not very clear on what she's looking for which could lead to surprises on a test. She likes students that attend class everyday. Not difficult to make an "A" here.

I like history but Kalisa's style has totally turned me off from it. She is more interested in people attending class than teaching. When she is "teaching" (usually means sitting in her chair and making us read out of the book) it is the most mind numbing exercise invented. Beware!

First off, this teacher is very sweet and you will pass the class if you show effort. she cares to help you and thats what i love about her! I got a B in her class! BUT i only recommend to take her if you dont mind reading out the book to study. she does not provide any notes for you to study and her lectures tend to be boring. good luck!

She is the sweetest kindest woman, and she really wants you to pass. She is the only teacher I know that provides you with STUDY GUIDES!!! She's awesome!!!

I was disappointed. She is very sweet, but the quality of her teaching leaves much to be desired. Her lectures were boring and monotonous, rife with historical and geographical errors, yet she was critical and condescending to the students for not being more interested. It's as though she's lost her motivation. She could do better. (I made an A.)

BORING! All we do is read from the book. Study guides are provided, however notes and pages are very long and sometimes things appear on test that aren't on study guide. Very disorganized and very boring class. Also, if she doesn't like you, you will KNOW. She can be so harsh to kids leaving or late!

Awful. Never even stands to teach. Study guides don't match tests, removes information like the Mexican-American war but must know minor details like how Andrew Jackson shut down banks. Really disorganized, so boring. Better to just take online. Made a history lover like myself loathe history

The worst teacher I've ever had, hands down. She doesnt start her lessons until 2 weeks into the semester, and she grades by how much she likes you. I made all A's and B's on the assignments/tests, and somehow I ended up with a C in the class -_- Don't expect to gain anything from this class. How does this woman have a job?

i am not a fan of history so her teaching made it a little harder to like it. she takes 2 weeks to just get through 4 pages and we would have an exam in 1 week and barely covered the chapter. what she reviews does not match the test. when you take her class just read ahead of the class to past the tests. she is a nice lady but not a good teacher.

Lecture-Lecture-Lecture it sounds boring but if you stay awake in class and read a few handouts you'll never need to open your book or STUDY!!! What you hear is what you get. So just sit there listen and get an "A". She likes participation and she's truly old school so show some respect and understanding for her style- and read your syllabus!!

Good teacher. Grades fairly and gives many opportunities to students to do well. A little quirky but overall a good instructor. She likes lots of oral discussion and writing. Show up, participate in class and complete assignments. They will help on exams.

She speaks softly and does not teach what is on her tests. One time we spent days on one chapter and there was one question on the test about it. She picks favorites with students and does not do well with questions. If you ask her a question it turns into a argument .

She's a nice, sweet teacher even though her lectures can be a tad boring. She's funny and tries to lighten up the class if none of the students participates. Her tests doesn't really match of what she lectures you just have to read the whole chapter to get the answers.

It is almost finals week, we have TWO TESTS for grades and we had to go visit a museum on student study day (btw she cancelled the trip to the museum at 5 in the morning, and then told us to go anyway for a grade). no real office hours, just "catch her". There is no h.w YOU must PARTICIPATE in the class discussions. she uses the word stupid ALOT!!

Wouldn't take again

She did not put any grades in the system the ENTIRE semester. I couldn't see how I was doing until the final grade went in, and even then I couldn't see what I did wrong.
