She's the best teacher. All you have to do is go to class and take notes and you'll do good.
EXCELLENT TEACHER. political science is already a hard class but she makes things easier and understandable. there are three take home exams that determine your final grade and nothing else besides that. she's funny and knows that is not the quantity of stuff covered in the book, is the quality that matters.
She is an interesting prof. never had a teacher like her B4. Makes a class that is normally boring very interesting and fun. Exams and finals are all TAKE HOME TESTS. Easy class
Awesome, fun, awesome, intelligent, interesting, and did I mention awesome? She's a flaming, bleeding heart liberal... and I'm not. But she is the BEST government teacher you'll ever have. Lectures are relevant to present day and she will make you THINK about what you are learning. Rarely uses the book and exams are take-home.
If you study her notes and don't miss any classes you will pass with flying colors! The great thing is she makes class fun! I took GOVT I & II, you have to be quick to sign up for her classes. Space runs out fast.
really fun to be with,,,,she make your day, belive me, you will find yourself laughing on her jokes after the class.exam do really sucks but sure is easy.class is nterseting and has a family envoirment.
OMG this teacher is an ANGEL!!! she's so awesome!! very motivational, very interesting and her class is super fun!...you learn so much about governments, she really sucks you into the subject. This is really a class with a purpose!! definately take this class!!! even if you don't like government you'll end up appreciating it!!! GREAT CLASS!
She by far has got to be one of my most favorite professor in college! She has one heck of a personality and made my government class fun and interesting!! She truely cares for her students education and well being. I would take her again in a heart beat if she taught other subjects!!
She is the best teacher ever I learned so much in her class! I wish I could take her for every subject!
Best Teacher ever!!!!!
She is an amazing teacher, best teacher ever!!! Extremely motivational, helps her students understand before moving on. I'm lucky enough to get a spot in one of her classes next semester!
She is the best teacher I've had at Lone Star. She is very supportive and understanding of students re-entering college after an extended period of time. It was never a boring class, always lively and entertaining. Amazingly, I walked away with a lot.
Awesome teacher! She's enthusiastic about her subject and loves teaching. She's also very helpful and accomodating to her students.
Greatest professor i've ever had at lone star. Keeps you interested with her stories, the classes are never boring. She is a very understanding teacher. Very good at explaining the subject
Seriously the best teacher I have ever had. Ms.Twitchell's class is never boring, she is very funny and makes learning fun. :D
Out of all the professors I have had so far, Professor Twitchell is my favorite. She's extremely entertaining, helpful and doesn't drag on about things. All tests are take-home, and if you have perfect attendence/text her when you can't come, she'll take questions off the test. TAKE HER CLASS!!
She is to awesome. She is a great person and is extremely understandting. If she would teach other classes I need to take I would choose her in a heart beat. Totally take her.

Ms. Twitchell is an AMAZING professor. You definitely don't need a text book. She writes down notes as she speaks and she goes through it with you. Her test are take home, they're a bit trick but fairly easy. She really makes you sit up and pay attention to what is going on with our government. She's super funny and her lectures are never boring.

Mrs Twitchell is AMAZING, she is the best instructor I have ever had. She is very concerned about her students success, She will definitely keep your attention and when you complete her class you will be very informed
The best teacher ever.She gives great lectures, She really does keep your attention.You will know everything you need to know about government when you complete her class. Take home test (not easy ,but you can take them home)If you do your work there is no way that you will not get an A. Highly recommended. Don't take Govt from anyone else
I took her for 2301 and 2302! She is an awesome teacher, she's very helpful. She was very helpful after class if you needed any explanations, her notes are kind of weird and she talks through the whole class, but she's funny and she tells it like it is. GREAT teacher, if I had to, I'd take her anytime in any subject again! :)
BEST TEACHER EVER! You must take her for Government. She is so cool and HILARIOUS!! She will not waste your time. Take home test wasn't as easy as the rest but still pretty easy.

Her lectures are ALWAYS interesting!She also has a great sense of humor. You DO NOT NEED a textbook for her class. However, she is big on attendance. So, attend all lessons because in the end she will REWARD you for having perfect attendance! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND YOU CHOOSE AND/OR REQUEST FOR HER!

ALl I CAN SAY IS OUTSTANDING! SHE'S THE BEST TEACHER I'VE EVER HAD. SHE HAS A WONDERFUL TEACHING STYLE AND NO BOOK IS REQUIRED! IF YOU NEED HIST OR GOVT....TAKE HER, YOU WILL NOT REGRET IT!!!!!!
Mrs. Twitchell is an excellent instructor. Her lectures(no books) are very informative and entertaining at the same time. She communicates to her students via text when not in the classroom, and is VERY prompt about replying back. You definitely want her for History 1301.
Ms. Twitchell is an EXCELLENT EDUCATOR.I took govt 2301/2305 I could write a whole essay about her but I will just sum it up by saying I wished she taught all of the classes I needed to take to get a college degree! You will get more than what you paid for!I drove an hour just to be taught by her! She's the epitome of a great teacher!
super easy class!!! best teacher ive ever had!
She's an awesome teacher! You can get an easy A, while learning the material. Definitely take her.
Amazing teacher! you should definetly take her.
Awesome! I wish she taught everything lol
Mrs. Twitchell is probably the best and most entertaining instructor I've had ever. No textbooks needed for her class. Everything is lecture and taking notes.
I enjoyed Prof. Twitchell's class. She made history interesting to listed to. She definitely cares about her students. If you need to take Hist. 1301 & 1302 I highly recommend you try and get in her class!
Prof. Twitchel is an excellent professor. I had her for TX gov and I wish I could take her for other classes. She may be easy but do not be fooled, you have to work for it. Come to class, take notes and pay attention and you should be good. She makes class really interesting and makes you really think about the subject.
Professor Twitchell is the best teacher I have met.I took her for 2 history classes and 2 govt.Both of the classes i passed with A's or B's.Take this lady you will not regret it.No textbook needed because everything comes from her. You have fun and learn at he same time.Im a mom,wife,and still managed 2 ass her class.Trust me you wont regret it.:)
she is the best teacher i have ever had, she is hilarious, she is very witty, she is very nice. you will truely learn from her lectures and enjoy doing it.
I took her for Texas and Federal Government the best teacher every. She really knows her stuff; you do not need a textbook she is the textbook. Please do not take her for granted do your QUIZZIES AND OYO and you will pass the class. I wish she could teach other courses.
She is very fantastic. Her lecture is very interesting to listen. She use simple language and make history easy to understand. I am taking her Gov this summer too.
she is an "AMAZING" teacher, we should have more encouraging, helpful, easy teachers like her. She truly teaches from her heart, her classes are super enjoyable, extremely fun. she is very knowledgeable 4 packets to read online & answer, just copy paste, online.Then 5 online quizzes easy A. That's all if u have 100% attendance u have "No Final" :)
Honestly? She's the best. That high rating she has is a well deserved one. She has interesting lectures, she's funny, she's kind, and she gives A LOT of chances. It's harder to fail than it is to pass. There is some work involved, but it's not going to kill you. She is one of the best teachers you could ever have.
One of the best professors I've had so far. I never understood the government and how politics actually work until I took her class. Very wise , gave us awesome "Twitchellizsm" advice and made sure you understood the material needed for quizzes and homework. I promise you will not leave her class without understanding the material.
A very good instructor , make teaching learnable
She's awesome! her lectures are very interesting and she is real! I always looked forward to her classes...super recommend!!!
Her enthusiasm makes me happy, so she was a joy to have as a professor! She cares about how each and every student were doing. Her lectures were easy going because she would lecture and also write down what we needed to know and copy. I like learning about the government and having her as my professor made me LOVE it.
She's a great professor! Her teaching style is great. The lectures were very interesting and I actually learned a lot. If you show up for class and take notes you will do just fine. I highly recommend taking her courses.
She is awesome, you don't need a text book because she has her own style of teaching, which is way better. She helps you out more than she should, so there is no excuse to fail her class, do not take advantage of her because she will know and will not help you out! The test are exactly like the notes. So going to class is very helpful.
Miss Twitchell is one of the most amassing professors I've ever met. It was an honor to be in her class, she was really helpful, lectures were very informative, and she was very helpful. For every assignment or test, she provide the needed materials to study. She is a great professor!
Very good teacher! if I could take her for all my classes i would! don't look any further just take her!!!! take home test and quizzes and if you show up to class and take your notes easy easy A!! just don't get on her bad side and do your work ;)
Ms Twitchell is one of the best professors I have taken thus far! She gives really amazing lectures, and notes! As long as you write notes and study them you will be fine for the test! She is very inspirational and she truly cares for all of her students. Show up to class everyday, TRUST ME you won't regret it! ;)
You'd be crazy not to take her class. Amazing professor. Words simply cannot describe her teaching skills!!!
She is an amazing teacher! Easy A! Do your work and SHOW up to class!
She is an AMAZING teacher! I'm taking her again for Texas Government this summer and I'm not worried at all. This is one class I always wanted to go to. Attendance and taking notes are key, show up everyday and take notes and you will pass. Quizzes are written straight from the notes, and she is hilarious!
SHE IS AMAZING THAT ALL I HAVE TO SAY
Mrs. Twitchell has been my favorite college professor thus far. I am currently taking her 3 week mini-mester and making an A. I rearranged my fall schedule to take her for TX Govt. She offers extra credit, She teaches what she tests! Come to class, Take Notes, & you will pass with an A. SHE IS HILARIOUS & Understanding! BEST TEACHER EVER!
She is seriously one of the most inspirational, hilarious, and wonderful professor I have ever taken. She makes fun of every race so don't take it personal, she does not mean to offend anyone. I seriously thought the class was going to be harder than I expected. However, she made everything possible for all her students to be successful! Take her!
SHE IS THE BEST PROFESSOR EVER! I DEFINETLY RECOMMEND HER AND IF YOU DO NOT PASS HER CLASS THEN SOMETHING IS SERIOUSLY WRONG WITH YOU!
Professor Twitchell is one of the most inspirational, caring, and humane person I have ever met. Her lectures are exceptional, and hilarious. She makes fun of everything and everyone, don't take it personal thats just who she is. I would definitely take her class again. Trust me it is the easiest A you will ever earn in a college credit course!!!
Ms. Twitchell the most amazing teacher ever!! She knows her subject matter very well & makes it easy and fun for students. She is always there to help & really puts in effort from her side to help you get a good grade. You'd really have to try very hard to fail her class! Take good notes, come to class, do your assignments, you will get an A !
Took this class as a summer mini-mester, best decision ever. No papers were assigned, no book was needed, and extra credit was basically handed to us on a silver platter. However, you need to show up everyday, and stay the entire class or you will fail- which is very hard to do. Tests online @ home with two attempts each. Super laid back!
Mrs. Twitchell is a great professor with a real passion for her students. She makes learning the often dry material very entertaining and captivating. Her classes are not difficult and she's very clear on instructions. So anything less than an A is due to laziness or attitude. I would happily take her again if I could.
I've never done one of these, but Ms. Twitchell is the best teacher I've ever had. I've never had an interest for Government, but she always kept me engaged. She is funny and laid back and knows what she is talking about. If you show up for class everyday and listen and take notes, there's no way you won't succeed in her class. Love Ms. Twitchell!!
Mrs. Twitchell is AWESOME at explaining Texas government! Her lectures are intresting due to her story telling and knowledge of the subject. Her tests are online and she gives great notes. She is the best of the best.
she is the best professor I have ever had. she is direct and straight forward, she explains in details for u to understand and works with u in any situation. its only a dumb that will make a "B" in this class.
Professor Twitchel is the best!!! You seriously CANNOT fail this class. Homework assignments are easy (just 2 hw) and her exams "Quizzes" are literally based on her notes (just 2 exams). Everyone makes an A, if you get a B or below then something is seriously wrong with you. No textbook needed and she lets you out early. TAKE HER!!!
i wish it was possible for her to teach me in all my class till i graduate.. only if all professors can be like her. she is very clear in instructions and makes it easy for students to pass. if u make less than A in her class, that is due to complete laziness.
THERE IS A REASON THAT THERE IS NOT ONE BAD/AVERAGE REVIEW!! Do not think twice about taking prof Twitchell, ENROLL WHILE YOU CAN. She is the most amazing teacher you will ever have. 2 tests and 2 assignments along with a ton of extra credit, its impossible to fail
STOP READING THIS AND GO ENROLL IN HER CLASS WHILE YOU STILL HAVE THE CHANCE! There is a reason why her classes fill up within hours of open enrollment. She is by far the most heartfelt teacher I've had my entire college career. It is because of her I want to major in political science! She Teaches what She Tests! Offers Tons of Extra Credit! EasyA
Awesome listener terrific teacher and inspirational as long as you show up every class no exam at the end of semester she's very loveable and understanding best teacher alive.. Take her, she rocks!!!
"TAKE HER CLASS RIGHT NOW!" YOU WON'T REGRET IT! EASY A+ JUST SHOW TO HER CLASS AND WRITE ALL HER NOTES WHILE SHE LECTURES. TEXTBOOKS ARE NOT REQUIRED FOR ALL GOVT 2305 GOV 2306 AND HIST 1302
AWESOME TEACHER! Two projects and two major tests and that's it! lots of extra credit. Don't think twice about taking her!
Most amazing teacher the easiest class i have taken but i have learned so much . Extra credit.2 exams . 3 homeworks. Love her she is hilarious you will never get bored of her lectures.
Amazing Teacher! She Makes learning in a way you can understand. Her lectures are never boring, by the end of every class you have learned something.
This is one of the most inspirational professor's ever. You wont regret taking her for any of your government or history classes. She is very clear and makes learning fun. I thought I would forget the things I've learned like in several of my other courses but I was wrong. Everything you learn in her class sticks with you. I strongly recommend her
Ms. Twitchell is amaaaaaaaaaaaaazing! She really cares about her students. She gives tons of extra credit, her classes are only 45 mins long because she typically lets us out early and our quizzes are online and we get two attempts to take them. She breaks down the lecture so it is understandable, she was wonderful i am taking her for gov 2306
Ms. Twitchell is one of a kind. I feel she's very engaging and interesting. She is very knowlegable and passionate about her topics and it was so easy to get caught up in her lectures. I felt her method of teaching was very effective and I was able to retain the information. I will make an effort to chose her again for future courses.
Professor. Twitchell is amazing at what she does. Her teaching methods are awesome, because she breaks everything down for the students to better understand the material. All you do is take notes and no book required. I did not regret taking her. She's easy, sweet and most of all funny during her lectures. I am taking her for future classes!
Awesome.
She is open minded, funny, and incredible with lectures. She is very organize and she grade punctually. She help students out and when you ask her about anything she give you her full attention. I would definitely take Professor Twitchell again.
She has been the greatest professor that I've ever had at lone star. Her lectures are always funny and entertaining. I strongly recommend for you to take her class! She is fantastic.
Twitchell is amazing and super funny. Her lectures tend to be short, quick, and straight to the point. If you take notes and do your OYO's there is NO way you will not pass her class with an A. I also took her for GOV2305 she really is great, i recommend her to anyone needing a history or government class!!
Professor Twitchell is an amazing teacher, and you will learn in her class! I took her class in the summer semester and it was a piece of cake! Stress free class, just do the 2 OYO's which are very easy, take notes, listen to her lectures and you set! Your notes are the answers to the test. She gives out PLENTY of BONUS points. EASIEST A MUST TAKE!
Professor Twitchell is AMAZING! She tells you exactly what you need to do to pass her class with an easy A. Impossible to fail her class. I would recommend her to everyone! She is caring, hilarious and very helpful. I'm not a big fan of government but she made lectures entertaining. YOU MUST TAKE HER!
This professor is awesome . You will not fall asleep in her class because her lectures are interesting. She gives you plenty of extra credit which will help you, especially if you do bad in an exam. The only thing I found hard was her exams but like I said before the extra credit will help you a lot. Overall, she's amazing & you should take her!
Best teacher ever her class fills up quick so if you have a chance take her. Easiest A. No hmwork. 2 exams and 1project .
GREATEST professor EVER! I absolutely love her! Easy Going. Very understanding.
She kept my attention in every lecture. She tells you exactly what you need to know for the test. If you show up to class and write what she writes on the overhead you can pass with no problems. But better yet, you will learn a lot with little effort on your part. She is by far the best professor I have ever had and would take again.
Prof. Twitchell is not boring at all. Teaches with her own style, and uses her own experiences to relate the material in a very understandable way. You must come to class, really, if all teachers were like this it is not a sacrifice. No textbook, take notes. Reviews for tests and some homework.
Professor twitchell Cares very much about her students and the importance of leaving her class having learned something. She is an easy going teacher but make sure to come to class because since she dosent use the book all the material you will need is the notes from class time.

If you wanna get a good grade while actually learning she the one.
Y'all she is seriously the best professor! She cares so much about her students and I promise you won't leave her class without laughing at least ten times. She makes her class extremely easy so that her students have one less college class to worry and stress about and that is something that makes her very unique! She makes learning enjoyable!
I heard great things- partly true. Took as summer mini. Good teacher, pretty easy A, lectures are straight to the point. Can get a little snippy & will call you out for things you weren't doing to try and impress the class. Overall, I got an A so I can handle the inappropriate jokes and attitude. Gives notes exactly as needed, don't miss class!
Ms. Twitchell came to replace another professor and I must say it was a pleasant switch. She gives a lot of notes and will be lenient if you come to class everyday, and pay attention to the lectures. Its best to focus on your note taking skills because sometimes she lets you use the lecture notes on the test. I would definitely recommend her.
Professor Twitchell the GOAT. She makes the lectures entertaining. Her assignments are easy and her exams are open note. Attending class is important, but she is fairly lenient on it. Easiest A you can make in class. I highly recommend her
Professor Twitchell knows her Texas Government I learned a lot in the semester that I have never known. She made showing up to her class easy and ready to learn.. great professor
Lecturers are not hard to understand, she is short, concise, and makes learning very fun. She offers extra cred for early turn in and attendance and allows any WRITTEN notes for exams, including final! Only downside is she pushes her political opinion on few topics; but what else can you expect? Most hist and gov prof do. Fantastic prof overall.

Only con is she pushes her political opinion on few topics, what else can you expect? Most hist and gov prof do. Fantastic prof overall. No textbook.
She is an amazing teacher. She makes you understand what you are doing. Helps you if you need help. She is always making jokes and tries to keep the class entertaining. Gives the same notes she is going to use for the exams. You definitely learn something.
Ms Twitchell! If there was a word above awesome, she is that! Loved her 7am jokes which were truly a starter for the day. She knows what she is teaching. Clear grading criteria. You have a perfect attendence, she will drop 20 wrong questions for you in the final. Mid term, Final and One DO YOUR OWN project. I wish I could take her again and again!
P. Twitchell knows her stuff & cares for her students, she has good humor & makes her lectures interesting; take notes, attend class, get a classmates number if you do miss. There is a Mid Term & Final Exam (open note) & an 'On Your Own' Project. She offers extra credit for perfect attendance & is there for u; questions or concerns, she texts back!
Twitchell is the best professor you can ask for! She makes her classes easy and fun to learn. There is only two tests, Mid Term and Final, where she will allow open notes, if you have taken her notes! She will tell jokes and scream to make sure you are up and ready to learn. I highly recommend her!
This professor is the best! This is an easy A, but you will definitely learn. I took her for all my government classes. TAKE HER!
Professor Twitchell is amazing. Her lectures are interesting, funny, and easy. She is very knowledgeable and knows her stuff. She cares a lot and makes sure everyone passes with an A if not a B. TAKE HER!!!!
Best professor there can be!! She will make you love the class and she will always make sure you laugh in her class. I would take her for every history class
Love her! Her lectures are amazing she will make sure you learn! BEST CLASS I'VE TAKEN. Easy A If you study and go to class. Take notes on what she tells you, and you will be fine! TAKE HER!
Best professor ever!! Attend class, write the notes and you'll get an A+. I wish I would've taken her sooner! She makes jokes throughout the lecture and relates with her stories making class 10x more interesting. TAKE HER!!
Take this professor!! I took her during the summer and her class was simple and easy. She makes jokes throughout the lecture to keep us focused and awake. Her exams are open book (from the notes) and she offers a ton of extra credit.
Professor Twitchell is the best professor, you will not regret taking her. The work she assigns is simple: 2 exams and 1 On Your Own. Her exams are based off her lectures, which are short and funny. Just be prepared to take lots of notes and be sure to show up to class!
She makes sure you learn stuff while making it fun, only prob is her own political views are somewhat incorporated in lectures, so some ppl may get frustrated, but don't let that stop you from taking her class. Very easy work, 2 tests include final, and on your own project, easy but worth 1/3 grade, so don't procrastinate. No textbook and may curse
Well laid out class with suggested daily work to get you ready for midterm and final. Only 2 tests and one project from a list of topics - great choices! Prof. Twitchell followed up personally if you fell behind and gave lots of extra credit opps by watching videos on subject. Excellent class, would love to take one from her again!
She is the best professor ever for HIST and GOVT classes. I thought these kinds of class will be so boring, but she makes it more interesting. She gives you chances to earn extra credit, and if you have perfect attendance, you will have even more. Only 2 tests and 1 easy project. Take her. Highly recommended. Her classes are filled up really quick.
Prof. Twitchell is the best professor I ever have. I hate History but after I took her class she changed my point of view. Take her and you won't regret. She gave a lot of extra credits which she called Knowledge points. Just come to class and you'll pass with an A.
She is the best teacher I had! In college shes supper funny, knows how to make hist very interesting. I hated hist but after I took her I loved it.. she very sweet and gives good extra credit! It helps ur grade a lot! Just put in effort and youll pass! I would without a dough take her again.
This prof is AMAZING! It says I made an A+, no I made a 100 across the board so did half my class. Midterm, Final, Project. Easiest teacher ever. Summer 1 6 week class, I am in GOVT 2306 now with her. Lets class out over an hour early. KP'squestion can miss on test. She is amazing. Dont take her if you cant stand cussing.
Amazing professor!! Her style of teaching reaches clearly and efficiently to all her students. Truly an inspirational wonderful woman! Fun fact about her: At the age of 8 she could read about 800-900 words in under a minute and still have a good understanding of what she read.
Amazing professor! Super easy class. She changed my views on government. She is funny and makes lectures easy to listen too. You will NOT fall asleep in her class. Won't need the textbook cause she is the textbook. I drove 40 mins to take her class because I'm from Kingwood, but it was worth the drive. Take her class and you won't regret it.
Amazing, just go to class, do assignments. Tests are taken online and they are open book. NO TEXTBOOK NEEDED. Everything comes from her lectures. She gives extra credit, allowing to miss question on test and adds point to average if perfect attendance. Super funny, honest and helpful. I just wish there were teacher like her for math & science.
Twitchell is THE BEST HIST/GOVT PROF at lonestar! I took her for HIST 1302, GOVT 2305, and 2306! Her classes fill up so quick so make sure to get her when registration opens. I never liked history until I had her. Her notes are the answers on the test! THEY'RE OPEN BOOK! She informs all her students about what's really happening in America.
Best Prof ever!!!
I love Professor Twitchel! The most amazing professor in LSC! Highly recommend for GOVT and HIST 1302 class. No textbook required, but you should show up EVERY CLASS, you won't waste it! Just take her class, you won't regret it!
Best professor I ever had !! Seems like she is the ideal professor that every student would love to take
Best Professor ever! Everyone should be able to take a class of hers!
I took her online, and my 1 gripe is that she treats her students like babies instead of independently letting us work. I get a text, email, or notification from her multiple times a week, and it's not about pertinent info. It's always her griping about people not spending enough time online or logged into videos. It's like I'm back in highschool.
We required to take note all the time in class with her. It is good because you need to focus all the time to get those notes. However, her class is fun, so keeping focus is not a difficult thing.
Professor Twitchell is the best Professor who is very hilarious and friendly. I am taking her GOVT 2305. There are just 2 tests for the whole semester. She always gives her students many opportunities to get extra credit by KP. I love the way she teaches her lectures in which you feel easier. Take her class and you will not regret.
TAKE HER YOU WONT REGRET IT. Professor Twitchell is awesome ! She knows what she teaches and makes class fun and interesting. 2 Exams, 1 project , and gives out a bunch of extra credit. You don't need a textbook. I truly enjoyed her class!
Mrs. Twitchell is very nice. she always willing to help and reach out to her students. Her lecture was fun and inspirational too.
Professor Twitchell is great and nice! Her online lectures are amazing and funny. She gives a lot of extra credit which helps since there is only a project, midterm and final. Just stay organized and do everything she puts online then you will get an A. I totally recommend her class online or in person.
She is by far one of the best professors ever! Took her online and had her for GOVT. She gives LOTS OF EXTRA CREDIT, which is why it's very hard NOT to fail. She also gives amazing lectures, and relates them to real life. Hands down take her!!! BEST PROFESSOR IN HISTORY AND GOVERNMENT. You won't regret it!
BEST LECTURES EVER!! You have no idea how much I learned in this class. She is very funny and cares A LOT about students. More than 50 years of experience. if you go to class, listen, and do extra credit (easy assignments), is impossible to fail. 2 tests (online) and a project (long but easy). English is not my first language and made an A+TakeHer
If you do what is asked of you, you will make an A in this class. Professor Twitchell gives ample amount of opportunity for extra credit and there is plenty of time do do all of the required work. There are 2 major tests and a major project (power point). She is reachable by text and will work with you as long as you are putting in the effort!
I have taken two classes with Professor Twitchell and she is amazing!! Hands down the best History/Gov teacher I have ever had. Her lectures are very informative and interesting. She uses many examples relating to issues occurring in the present time. If you show up every day you will get an A and you will most definitely learn a lot.
She's really GREAT PROFESSOR! She inspires us to study government with hilarious lectures. Caring for student and reviewing before the test. It's very useful to remember what we studied. Posting records of every lecture helps students catch knowledge better. Giving students incentive words to go ahead & helping them to catch their goals. I love her
She is just so nice, and gives extra credit. She records classes.
AMAZINGGGGGG PROFESSOR, I highly recommend ! Shes very understanding, and communicates well so you know whats expected to pass. She will send reminders and make announcements on d2l NOT to be annoying but to make sure her students are updated every message is class related or due dates so you stay prepared for the next class.
Proffesor Twitchell is an amazing proffesor. She is caring and loving and she makes learning fun and educational.
I've never had a teacher that made me feel more inspired and cared for. The class is easy, as long as you pay attention and do your assignments, but other than that, it's simple. She's amazing, caring, and you'll never feel like "just a student." Her humor makes even the most boring parts of government bearable and you might even love it.
I never felt overwhelmed in this class because she always explained topics and assignments clearly. Professor Twitchell kept an open line of communication and was always there to help even with personal problems. Do the assignments with detail as they help on exams . Terrific class!!
My Gosh professor Twitchell is hilarious, she very straight forward but super cool. She lets you know from day 1 what to expect and if you dont come to class you will not pass. I enjoyed lectures especially because she would crack a joke every now and then but I mostly Ive learned so much that I did not know pertaining to History.
She is amazing. Hybrid class was the right fit for me. Easy A. Do homework and she will be happy.
Twitchell is great you will leave her class knowing something different everyday.
Great Hybrid Class, did learn a Ton! I would definitely recommend her, she is Hilarious! Keep in mind she does her twitchcast with that being said pay close attention to them they are the key to getting good grades for vocab. And you also learn. Also, go to class you will not regret it!
TAKE HER!!! This professor is definitely accessible outside the classroom. She inspires you to learn something every time. Her amazing and funny lectures was what got me an A+ on her Exams. She gives you hope to learn about History. She is very upfront and from the beginning she will say YOU GOT THIS! SHE IS BY FAR THE BEST TEACHER IN HISTORY!!!!!
This was one of the best classes that I have ever taken. I took this class on Saturdays and I drove over an hour to get there from Conroe, TX. Professor T made the class very interesting. She is a very caring person. I truly learned a lot in this class. The course load is manageable for those with busy schedules. Do the work and you will pass.
Such an eye opening professor. She was VERY passionate about what she was teaching and made lectures something to enjoy. Tests are over the material covered in the lectures so if you miss, it's up to you to watch her presentations to get the info. Very fun and I would 10/10 take this class again!
Her class was very easy for me. She was super funny in her lectures and her class if definitely an easy A if you just do the assignments. Its basic vocabulary you must get from her videos. Each vocab ws took me about 1.5 hrs so prepare. She is a great choice for online though!
Only graded by vocab (really long and confusing), 2 tests (midterm and final which are cumulative from each section up to each exam) and a PowerPoint which was 20% of the grade. She is a hard professor. I would not recommend this teacher for anyone due to her workload. Switched to a different professor and got an actual grade with different things
I will make this simple for you: if you want to take either hist 1301/1302 or govt 2305, THIS IS YOUR BEST CHOICE. Mrs. Twitchell is such a sweet, compassionate & comprehensive professor that wants you to learn interesting things and pass. We did not have any tests and had to do a vocab once a week where she would post videos talking about them.
I LOVE TWITCHELL!! She was the best history professor I have ever had. She takes her time to record lectures for her online students and actually teach unlike most professors in an online class. The grades were very easy but somewhat a lot of work. You will be prepared for the 2 exams with the vocab assignments. She is awesome! Take her!!!!!!!!!!!!
IF YOU LISTEN TO THE LECTURES AND COMPLETE THE GUIDED VOCABS YOU WILL DO GREAT! 2 TESTS AND A PAPER. SHE IS AMAZING AND PROVIDED US HELP DURING COVID 19. I WOULD RECOMMEND HER FOR ALL HISTORY AND GOVERNMENT CLASSES.
Professor Twitchell is amazing! She is passionate about her work and her classes are never a bore. I would totally recommend taking her class!
Professor Twitchell is an amazing teacher. I truly wish all my teachers were like her. Clear instructions for all assignments.
Best teacher I have ever taken at lone star! She really cares about her students and you can tell in her lectures. After every assignment she gives feedback on what you need to improve on or if you did really good. She is really funny and makes the class enjoyable. I will definitely take her for all of my future history classes!
I took the 6-week summer course, 2 tests which are the midterm, and the final exam and about 5 or 6 assignments. Her class is very easy, you can use your guided vocabs on the tests and most of the material comes from her videos, some you do have to use the provided websites. Highly recommend.
I cannot tell you how awesome Prof. Twitchell is!! I took this class based on the good ratings and was not sure if she was going to live up to them. My first assignment was a mess and she pointed out my mistakes (and gave me another chance). After that, I just followed instructions and learned the material (she makes it easy). Highly recommend!!
Easiest government class I've ever taken. She made it easy to understand and had a low amount of projects for us. She was also very understanding if we were not able to attend so long as you told her in advance.
Professor C, is so caring for her class. Her lectures are interesting and her assignments are easy. She is one of those professors that does not have her class buy any textbooks because she understands her students may not be able to, especially with times right now. You can tell she loves teaching. I definitely recommend for everyone to take her!
I love her. She gives a lot of extra credit opportunities. I had 50 extra credit points and I did not do all of the extra credit work. Shes amazing! Shes very flexible and truly cares for her students. She is one of the few professors who actually knows how to teach!
I love this professor, she teaches the material very well and her class is always enjoyable. Go to class, take notes, and complete the work before the due date. Early is always better! Extra credit is easy to earn and is understanding about everything really. Put in some effort and you will pass!
This one is good! As long as you aren't slacking and aren't not paying attention you will definitely get an A. There are many opportunities for extra credit, and if you just talk to her about any problem she will work through whatever it is needs fixing. I Would take this professor again most definitely!
I actually took her at San Jacinto college but she is literally the most caring and understanding professor I have ever had. The work is not hard at all.
The best professor I've had. Awesome lectures that don't make you feel like you're in class. Easy A, I would recommend and have already recommended this prof to my friends. Hilarious too. If she wasn't a hist/gov professor she could have been a comedian! Wish I could have taken her face to face class and I don't say that too often
She is a very caring and understanding professor. Her lessons are detailed for you to complete your weekly assignments and she provides a textbook online you can use for the assignments too. She is not a tough grader and provides ALOT of feedback on incorrect answers. Shes very good and recommend you take her class!
Professor Twitchell was awesome. I loved the "Twitch Casts" that she puts on each week. She makes sure that you understand the material and able to pass the tests.
Professor T was such an awesome professor! In my 8 week course, there were 13 study guides, one midterm, and one final. Everything is super easy if you read the material. The midterm was open notes, and the final was a powerpoint report of the people that represent you. Mine ended up being 93 slides. She wants you to succeed. Take Professor T!
If you listen to everything she says during lectures, you'll be successful! Great person, great professor!
Easy class, easy teacher. All you have to do is watch her videos explaining the lecture and answer the questions for each topic. The only problem was that sometimes she doesn't talk about a certain topic, but then she asks many questions about this, and she doesn't allow us to use outside sources except for her videos, which confused me.
Professor Twitchell is an amazing professor and I will be choosing to have her as my teacher for US history 2. I have always been very bad at history, and actually hated history, but with her twitchcasts (lectures) she not only gives you the exact answers you will need for your test but she teaches you in a way that you will enjoy learning.
this professor is so bad at grading, she does not give you the grade you deserve. when you email her about a problem she responds weeks later and not worth it anymore.
Professor Twitchell has been my absolute favorite teacher. She is very kind and also very funny! She always makes the lectures interesting and makes learning history very easy. She only has a mid-term and a final which are very easy if you pay attention in lectures. There are no essays in this class. I wish I can have her as a professor forever.
She WANTS you to succeed. She grades on just notes, midterm, and final. I used to get really bad grades on the notes but she graded them and showed where I went wrong and let me correct 4 of them which boosted my grade up to a 98. Our class didn't even get a final since we were doing so well. She's a great professor I definitely recommend her.
Her lectures are solely based on the videos she provides and you have to take notes on them. She doesnt give enough information to fill out the outlines and expects you to basically write 3-5 sentences per each question. VERY UNORGANIZED CLASSED!!! Please dont take her!!I'm an all A student and this class sooo was so horrible.
I took her due to other reviews and I honestly enjoyed her class. She mainly taught based off of her "twitch" youtube videos, which were very informative and went along with 95% of her assignments. The best way to achieve an easy A is to just do her assignments and communicate with her is any trouble comes up. If you don't, you will fall behind.
I took her during a summer session and online so maybe it is different in person but the differences shouldn't be this pronounced. The lecture videos that go with our assignments barely cover half of the questions and she ONLY wants your answers to be from the videos she provides. very hard to get a response from her and if you do she is rude.
Twitchell made learning history enjoyable and I really enjoyed her lectures. She has a lot of personality and her workload is not too overwhelming. She was also funny and very sweet. I would definitely recommend her!
Prof. T was AMAZING!! Every assignment was based on her tcasts, which were very informative. Every question can be answered using her videos. She also gives a lot of extra credit if you do very well on the assignments! However, the assignments are fairly long but nonetheless easy. My class did so well she didnt even give us a final! Def take her :)
Professor Twitchell was literally awesome!! Her content is always easy to understand and requirements are clear. She gives plenty of opportunity for success as long as you apply yourself. Even a late grade isn't that big of a deal. She's a hoot to listen to in her lectures.
This is the best professor I think I've ever had... she knows what she's talking about and if you just take good notes and actually watch her videos you should receive an A no problem. Also, she hands out extra credit like candy if you're doing the work. Very kind and understanding, take her class if you can! She will take late work too.
Seems nice, talks slow, grades really specific to her words, rambles, says unnecessary and time-consuming things a lot. Other reviews say shes easy on late grades, but not anymore, she does not take them at all unless you have an excuse up to her standards. (This does not include overbearing workload.) I want to like her so much but I can't.
She was very lecture heavy, but I appreciate the tcasts. She made me love history class. I loved listening to her, she has a great sense of humor and made learning FUN. 100000% take this professor!!
Take her if you need the credit! She is really good at what she does and is very caring for all students. If you fail her class, its because you didn't do the bare minimum. Easy grader and her lectures (twitch cast) are very fun to watch. Expect one assignment due each week.
Literally, take her if you have the opportunity, omg I can't recommend her enough. LOVE her. Funny, caring, understanding, wonderful lectures. She really knows her history. Quick grader, great feedback. Work will take you a few hours though, assignments can be lengthy. Overall, I wish she taught every class so I could take her forever.
Prof Twitchell is amazing - her Twitch Casts are super helpful for prepping. Between those and resources like Unstuck study, you'll be set up to nail this class. Highly recommend taking her if you can!
Very heavy course load. She essentially grades your notetaking but this notetaking must match the info from her own lecture videos. Some answers are not in the provided materials.
Really class to take you do all the work. The homework is basically your note taking. Be aware that the homeeork she gives has many parts in it but she gives you a lot of time to finish them. Overall, if you do all the work there should be no problems. She really knows her history. Quick grader, great feedback.
Amazing professor! Just do the work and you'll be fine, very self explanatory and easy. thank you professor Twitchell!
Take this professor! Her twitchcasts are great and funny, I wish she taught all my other classes. She was straightforward from the beginning, if you received a bad grade it was because you did not follow directions. She literally tells you what she expects from you with examples and the assignments are easy if you watch her casts.
She was a good professor; I highly recommend her. I had to write a paper, but it wasn't long at all.
I actually retained a lot of information from 1301 and 1302. Her positive attitude towards teaching really helped me. I enjoyed listening to her lectures. Gives great feedback on important events to remember and take note of.
