Notes. Lots and lots of notes; otherwise, you are doomed for failure! And, you better do A LOT of your own research, or you will fail her tests! Our class thought we did good on a take home test--and 95% got a C- or worse! Take her only if you must!
She doesn't know how to teach. Expects you to know much of the stuff she teaches. Very disorganized teachiing plan. She also seems lazy, like if she did not want to be there.
Christe was very helpful to me. most students did not bother to approach her so they were mad with their grades. she gave me lots of opportunities to do better. if you don't read the material you will fail. lazy students beware!
She made it all too clear that she was not interested in teaching our class - it didn't interest her. And you know what? Our grades reflected it. She should have her teachnig credential revoked.
she is not only hard but looks like she hates teaching. does not know how to lecture, mumbles when she talks.doesn't explain anything. gives a test and adds the following chapter into the test and when you tell her she says "well I expect you to read ahead" dont take her, horrible teacher!!!!
Horrible, horrible teacher. I read all the material, took lot's of notes, studied, and got a C in the class. Her notes do no co-incide with the material she gives, she is dis-organized, she never returns tests on time. Worst teacher I've ever taken.
Very bad teacher. Didn't care about treating students fairly, nor did she care about our grades. Late to class, late giving papers back, constantly contradicting herself. Tests had poor grammar, yet she would critisize OUR paper. Worst teacher I've ever had, do yourself a favor, STAY AWAY.
Terrible teacher. She might nice and funny, but she DOESN't know what she is talking about. I hope if she reads this she'll realize that she'll be better off doing something else...
Really wanted to learn about the subject matter. But she was completely disorganized in presentation and there was a huge disconnect between her 'lectures' and her exams. Nice enough person but it seems like she is just trying to pick-up an extra paycheck on the way home to Oxnard from Venice where she teaches math at LAUSD. Take another professor.
She was 30 minutes late for a final the class rescheduled at her request. I missed one-half of one class (better than her attendance), but didn't qualify for her 'perfect attendance' 10% final grade boost. Overall, really disappointed in this lecturer because I took the class to learn about the subject but don't feel like the material was covered.
She made me buy a $40 book and never even talked about it. Her test's some times contradict what she lectured. She gave take home test's at times, and let us use the notes during the test
Nice teacher learned a lot from her. A little confused on where to get the information from but found a web site to help with studying. Cares a lot about her students.
Stay away from this teacher.
I got a B but still want a refund.

She's crazy. She's one of those teachers who wants her students to think for themselves as long as they think like her. She includes her opinions in test questions and is incoherent in terms of lecturing due to the fact that she TALKS ABOUT EVERYTHING ELSE BUT THE SUBJECT. She'd be cool if she was a crazy aunt, but as a teacher she is lacking.
the best professor I've had eventhough there are a lot of****heads in this class I thank god I've got a brain to have gotten a grade of A
Never stays on topic! Horrible lectures, no way of taking notes, making class time pointless, yet she still requires perfect attendance. If you don't agree with her views you will not get an 'A' on the test.
SHE'S THE BEST TEACHER..SHE LECTURES THE BEST WAY POSSIBLE WITH POWERPOINT, WHICH MAKES IT EASY TOO UNDERSTAND...STRONGLY RECOMMEND..
she's funny and at the same time helpful..uses the easy textbook..tests are simple and she gives you chances.. take itt..
I've learned so much she really tries to help you learn the material. Worth the money
why not..smart,funny, make the class interesting and i got an easy "A".
I enjoyed the power point presentations whic are more inter3esting than lectures
I like her because she is kind and cool because she uses powerpoint and it makes it easy. She does not discriminate.
Awesome Teacher, Chill and Down to Earth, Bonita Chica!
Really nice.I love her.Always look foward to her class.
She really knows her stuff and makes it interesting. Very sexy teacher. Learned a great deal.
very intellegent. The best teacher ever
best class ever
best teacher ever
She is cool and she uses power point to keep us interested. I would recommend her to anyone who wants to enjoy a history class, for once.

She is by far the coolest prof. I've ever had. I'm so happy...
She explains everything and makes me want to know more. I love her and wish all professors could be like her. She should teach western civ. too!!
Way to cool...I wish she could teach western civ. to finish off my requirements. I would recommend her even if she taught dishwashing

Man I would take her for any history class she is very helpful and will not turn down anyone. She helped me get through it all.
I'll be taking part 2 with her as soon as I can that is how much I am banking on her!Invest in her and you'll be rich like me.
she is a great teacher!!! loved her class and look forward to taking history 44!!!
Shes a unqualified professor. If you scroll back some pages you can see the truth about her.She's irresponsible and doesnt know what she's teaching. She appears to be very lazy and her powerpoints are created with as little work as possible. She has no business teaching.I took the class to learn and got nothing from it.Wonder who gave her 5's ha.

She is really nice, friendly and fun in class. Just pay attention to powerpoint and you will be good on the quizes. The tests are just like the study guides, You just need to read the book before the test. She is a really fair grader.
not the best professor to take for history, take anyone else but her.. ANYONE.. even mchargue!

she is so awsome!!!!!
she s kinda weirdo. THe class s not helpful at all, however take the class if you want to pass without knowing anything about history. prepare well for cheat sheet(she allows), that will help u! B was average grade
Had to drop as I could not hand with her at all. Appreciate the subject, but not really her as a professor. Needs to be better organized.
Awesome and interesting! Really cares about you!
Had for winter and did great so I'm taking her again this semester. I can count on her to do me good.
i took the class over the winter. she summarized the whole subject in a short semester pretty good. her tests were right from the study guide. fair grader. fun class. take picture from the slide shows.
I would recomend this profesor to anyone who likes cool - she is intelligent and knows her history. I left her history class better informed than ever. She lets you use a notecard for the tests and wants you to suceed. She makes me feel smart!
great class- fast paced and the tests were easy
I must have taken another C Armendariz @ Pierce because my experience was TERRIBLE. Shows no interest in what she is teaching, cynical, inconsistent and ALL over the place during lecture. I could not in good faith recommend.
she is very helpful and cares that i learn: i especially like the group work, helpful: the class is definetly not for the lazy in the summer
Ms. Armendariz is a professional and very fair teacher. She knows how stuff and I learned alot. The other students wanted to do what ever they wanted. She would emphasis on the syllabus and some students would be upset cause they were late for class and they were not allowed to interupt us students who were taking the test.
She truly has no idea what she's talking about. Lazy, inconsistent, politicizes everything, clueless.
I love her she is so nice.
To anyone trying to make some sense of history take this chic cuz she'll explain everything and at the end she you'll like get a good grade. Highly recommend by our group. No regrets
Easiest class ever! hardly went to class, she does take attendance for extra credit but its not needed. Provides study guide a week in advanced. Exam questions are directly from study guide. You can also have a "cheat sheet".
She is the coolest professor! she teaches and connects history with today's events. She is occasionally funny. she is very understanding if u can't make it to a test, fair grader, friendly. show up, she takes roll. pay attention. study the handouts and study guides (google) & you will get an A. You don't need the text book. she is good. take her.
SHE WAS REALLY EASY, I TOOK HER FOR CHICANO STUDIES, AND I REALLY THOUGHT IT WAS DOPE HOW SHE BROUGHT IN OLD ARTICLES FROM THE 1800'S ABOUT MEX AM. HISTORY.. RECOMEND! I GOT AN A!
very cool teacher. My favorite class this semester. Easy, but not too easy. One has to like history and at least be interested. Funny teacher. Sometimes entertaining. recommend this class.
She is cool, her class is easy. we are allowed to make cheat sheat during exam, 1 presentation, and a final. all are okay, she is fun. highly recommended
Professor Armehendriz is ne f the greatest professors i've ever had. She really cares about the student and wants yu to pass the class. I learned lt about Mexican America History and cant wait to take her for her next history clss. I would definetey reccomend her to anyone that wants to tak a class to learn an have a great experience. TV

Simply said, the ideal history teacher. Perfect teacher. Highly recommended wont regret taking her

Amazing teacher! Her teaching skills are really good, and class is enjoyable.
Best teacher!!!!! So helpful. Take her for History 43 and 44
Professor Armendariz is one of the most outstanding professors at Pierce. She helps out the students to their needs and makes sure the students are learning. I would definitely want to take another class with her again, she makes the class fun and you would want to attend class every week!
Professor Armendariz is by far one of the best professors I've taken at pierce. she makes her class very interesting and is very helpful and is good looking. TAKE HER!!!!!!!! YOU WILL NOT REGRET IT!!!!!!!
amazing teacher real easy class shes extremeely helpful u can use flashcards on the final and midterm no homework no quizzes freakin amazing class and shes fine too ;)
One of the best teachers I ever had! She is amazing and explains everything so well. I took another history teacher and this teacher is way better. Take her u won't regret it
She's amazing! Love her! As long as you pay attention you'll be fine :) Take her!!
She is absolutely fabulous and I highly recommend her to all my friends. They make no complaints, and they Thank Me! You do have to work, though because she wants everyone to learn. Really Outstanding Professor.
easy A, put almost no effort in her class and still got an A. dont bother taking notes, she gives u the questions for the midterm and final. just make a cheat sheet and youll pass the final and midterm easily. 10 percent extra credit for showing up. and one easy project. highly recommended if u want the easiest A ever.
Worst teacher I've ever had!! You will only get an A if you're a guy. Had the same cheatsheet as a guy friend, I got a fail, he got a B
Professor Armendariz is very sweet and her class is fair!If you study for tests you will get an A.Cheat sheets allowed on final and midterm. You need the textbook but she also goes over material in lecture. Take her!
Great Professor. Really Cares about students. Sense of humor good! Tries to help you learn.
Boring but easy A all you need is to just google the questions she gives before each tests and write them in a cheat sheet! Write as much as you can, and attend every class.
She's really funny Easy A. Just come to class everyday and you'll be just fine. She's nice about tests and lets you use a cheat sheet that is really helpful. She really cares about every student.
such a fun class, it is three hours once a week but defiantly does not feel like that at all!! by far my favorite teacher!! helpful and funny really knows her history facts got an A in the class take this class!! wish she taught all my classes :( loved this course would take it again and again if i could!!
Shes funny and easy as long as you dont bother her
Summer class. 3 test and a final. She drops lowest scored test. Gives questions on the test and allows you to use a cheat sheet. Gives extra credit for helping her with random stuff. Cares about her students passing even though she says she doesn't care. Easy A.
She is perfect and easy. She gives study guide before the test. I really enjoyed of her class.
Professor Armendariz is a very easy professor. I liked taking her class but the only thing I did not like was that this class gave me so much anxiety as she grades the tests randomly. 2 tests and a final in total. If you are lucky this class is the easiest A ever.
non-technological person! if you could not come to class even the emergency situation, it is not acceptable for her. You have to contact her but there is no way to contact her. Just, make sure to have somebody in class and tell them but it is no guarantee that she accepts it. she is not logical at all:(
BEST history professor out there. She is very knowledgeable about everything related to history. She wants her students to do well and make sure they learn. Very caring and chill. Must take!!!
This Professor is nice and easy to get an A in her class, just be nice and do all the assignments and youll get an A, help her out as much as you can and shell give you an A no matter what grades you had on assignments. She tends to ramble on so just be quiet and sit in the back on your laptop, good notes are not necessary, youll get an A.
At first she seemed hard but as the class went on shes the best professor Ive ever had!! Youll regret not taking this class
I had no problems just listen , take good notes ,and do the study group. She likes it when you ask her questions on history like Charlemange. Lectures are long
she is not logical at all, and she is not fair too. she doesn't grade fairly. she gives random grades even if you work hard.
