He tries to make History fun in his own way. He tries to make interesting. Take good notes and he gives review before test. Very nice and intelligent man. I will defintely take another course taught by him.

Very intelligent, get to know him and ask questions, h is very helpful if you take the time to talk to him, tak good notes and do the reading, very fun teacher

tight teacher, the class is kinda boring but he's a cool guy and doesn't expect you to know everything. test are perty easy since he gives out detailed study guides.

I love this class!! But I'm a history major so that's a different story. Anyway, I like the wat he teaches the class. Not everything is strait from the book which makes everything interesting. Doing the reading is very helpful so that you understand what the lecture is about. I like that fact that he doesn't expect us to memorize every but just have a general understanding of it. I definatly reccomend his as a professor

sO HE LOOKS LIKE THE DAD FROM AMERICAN PIE. YOU DON'T NEED TO GO TO CLASS TO DO GOOD. HIS LECTURES ARE VERY CONFUSING AND MOST OF THE TIME DON'T HAVE ANYTHING TO DO WITH CLASS THE STUDY GUIDE IS LONG BECAUSE HE GIVES YOU ALL THE ANSWERS SO YOU DON'T HAVE TO LOOK UP THE TERMS. YOU CAN MAKE UP TESTS AND HE'LL HELP YOU WITH THE ANSWERS. EASY CLASS

REALLY JUST WANTS TO GET THROUGH SCHOOL AS SAFELTY AS POSSIBLE....

i dont know what everyone is whining about, i think he is a pretty good teacher, yea he goes off on tangents but thats how you learn something new, otherwise he would just be spewing back from the book, ive never liked history as a subject or a class but i actually enjoy this class, he is nice to those who need help,

He is awesome!!!! Very intelligent. Yes he goes off tangent but it relates to his lectures and gives an added persepctive. Breaks down origin of words such as Mesopotamia and others. He is very helpful and willing to help out. Excellent Professor. Hope he teaches upper division!

Don't buy the book, it'll be a waste of 50 dollars. Don't go to class, it'll be a waste of time. Go to his reviews and tests, because there simply just easy. This professor, obviously does not care about the grading system, and practically doesn't care about anything at all. I never went to his class and received an A, by his extra credits.

I barely went to class yet still managed to recieve an A! haha he's really helpful and very understanding. His lectures were odd most of the time but if you do take notes (you don't really need to) it helps just as much as reading the reviews. take him!

DON"T waste your money on the book. Trust me!!! He gives study guides which have everything that is going to be on the test. He is boring but sometimes the class is fun because he does not really teach history until the last 15 minutes.

THIS TEACHER IS REALLY EASY AND NICE. I FEEL THAT YOU DO NEED THE BOOK FOR THE MAPS BUT THAT IS ABOUT ALL.I DIDN'T WANT TO BUY A BOOK SO I TOLD HIM AND HE GAVE ME ONE FOR FREE. HE IS EXTREMELY FUNNY YET WEIRD AT TIMES. I HATED HISTORY AND STILL DO BUT ITS MORE FUN WITH A TEACHER WHO IS EXCITING LIKE HIM. TAKE HIM EASY A BUT HE DOES TAKE ATTENDANCE

This class was really easy, yet a waste of time. He lectures forever and I did not pay attention most of the time. He gives study guides before tests which is pretty much ur ticket to passing the class...he's cool but sucks that he makes you go to class. Easy somewhat interesting..funny sometimes...but sort of weird.

What can i say? I got a C (he doesnt use +/-). Even though i missed class at least once a week, got lower than a 50% on exams, and never participated in class. He gives out study guides that are like a textbooks! sucks he gives em out right before the exams becuz u dun hav enuf time to study for em. anyways hes an OKAY teacher.

the class started off really hard and the test scores were depressing. as the class progressed he lightened up, memorize short answers and study maps

Tells interesting historical anecdotes and can be quite funny. Pay attention to the study guides and maps and you will do fine on his tests. I found this course to be fun and not overly difficult. Thank goodness for no papers! ^_^

WOW! This teacher is hilarious. He seems very passionate about history. I only sat in one class meeting and I can tell he knows a lot, but I personally would not want to sit through a semester with him.

I think he's an awesome teacher. I never cared for History, but because he's funny and adds little tidbits of information that don't necessarially pertain to the lecture at hand, the class has become one of my favorites. Critics should try sitting through a monotone, verbatim from the text lecture-might change your tune. And, yeah, he is HOT!! ;)

Intresting. but does have weekly homework.

If anything, take Hist.110A with Reemes just for the entertainment. He made me laugh everyday and his appearance is also something of itself. You DEFF need to study. He hands out study guides before every test, and hands out a sign in sheet, then most of the people leave. Very intelligent and always helpful. However when you go he talks ALOT...

You dont need to take notes in class, cause everything you need to know is on the study guide, but you do have to go, so if you just relax and listen to his tangents its kindof fun. Exams have alot of anoying names on them, but he makes it as easy as possible telling you exactly what the essay questions are. not bad at all

Long study guides, no need to take notes, very helpful on essay questions and final, can be ****ed and rude at times, takes attendence, okay class

i loved this man, he's funny and interesting. I very much enjoyed his class. there's no need to read tyhe book, he hands out very helpful study guides and his tests are easy if you just memorize the study guides.

i hated history but managed to get a passing grade.i missed class a lot and did poorly on the exams but i did chit chat with him a couple of times, so i think thats why he passed me with a C. hes very nice and cares about his students. he gives out study guides like 2 classes in advance so you have to cram.

hes kinda weird... but the tests are easy because everything on the test is off of his study guide. he also gives you all the answers to the short answer questions. you dont need to take notes in class, but he does take attendance. theres weekly summaries you have to turn in, but its easy. hes a really nice teacher.. just kinda strange.

He wears black, A LOT. He's the gothic kinda type. There's no doubt he has a strong love for history. He gets so excited when he talks about Justinian's wife, Theodora (if you take the class you'll find out why). He's so helpful! Without his study guides, I probably wouldn't have passed. He drops the wrost test score (there's only 4 tests)!

Interesting teacher, but he also made the class intersting. He does have the tendancy to go off on tangents, though, and when he promises 30 minute lectures they usually end up being 45. Nice teacher and the class is fairly easy if you make any sort of effort.

Cool Teacher Overall...Lectures are understandable and interesting. Tests are relatively easy if you pay attention...everything he lectures are from the book. Study guides for the tests are the best thing...Very helpful. Take him he is cool.

easy teacher but kinda weird. no need to take notes the study guide he gives is the only thing you need. He gives extra credit on each test but he gives you each answer to the extra credit before the test. attendence counts he makes you sign in but i never really stayed after i signed in and i ended up with a good grade

If anyone can tell me that what's going on with the "assigned reading summaries"?! Is this really important?! It looks I need the textbook as a tool to complete the tasks...... The class not as easy as ppl. took it before!!two midterm, ****ulative final, reading summaries, and essays...

okay how are you suppose to take notes in this class.. he writes random words on the board. a text book is required as you need to do weekly summaries.. which he does not grade haha easy teacher though

Really, take Dr. Reemes. He's an amazingly witty, quirky, reflective individual and I've learned a lot more from him than just the Roman Empire. He takes a sometimes dry subject, and simplifies it. Offers extra credit on exams that boosts one grade up. Weekly summaries are okay, and his study guides are all you need to study for exams.

He's hot! Class is great if you study. Study guide helps. He is very helpful, if you just ask. Like I said before, he's VERY hot!!!

Extremely great teacher. Claa may be a little boring but does give study guides for exams, which by the way questions are taken straight from the study guide. EASY A'S ON EXAMS. He also gives extra credit on exams and he DOES give u the extra credit wuestions AND ANSWERS. TAKE HIM.

You have to be totally dumb to not pass this class with a B or better...gives you so many opportunity to get an A...3 exam: 100pt, 1/3 easy map id, 15 pt extra credit...questions and answer given before hand. I actually wrote in his end of semester evaluation that he's making his class too easy...

very good teacher interesting gives you a study guide for every exam some writing assignments. i recommend this class

EASY TEACHER!! Gives you study guides to study for the tests/finals, questions/answers to the extra credit essays, and posts on blackboard the map material you need to know for the exams. The only downside is you have to attend class every session for participation points but since he is boring, sit in the back and bring something else to do like o

These people below are mad trippin!! This professor was mad kew!! This class was hella easy. I couldnt see how people in this class could not get an A. Gives 3 midterms (drops the lowest 1), journal reviews, and final. Attendance is mandatory but he just wants you to do good. Take him you wont regret it.

the class is easy, the lectures do bore you but they def help you remember the material.The exams are based off a 5-6 page study guide and they are easy to pass.

i absolutely LOVED this class. Professor Reemes was an AMAZING teacher. He is a very smart man. The class was easy and he prepares you extremely well for the exams. I recommend taking his class!!!!

Easy class. He can talk forever. I mean forever. Written summaries on every chapter. 3 midterms and a final that are super easy and gives extra credit take advantage. Attendance is mandatory, bring something to do, the class gets really dreadful at times.

he loves this subject and probably knows a lot more about it than the actual book. sometimes explains more in depth than needed. he is a stickler for grammar and spelling on the short answers for the tests. just stay on task when working on the summaries and memorize the study guides and you'll get an A for sure.

From the age of 10 Dr. Reemes has had an interest in the big issues of civilization. Combine that with a magician, high level cartoon and comic animator, and a spooky sense for what the audience is thinking and you have all of what it took to turn a potentially dreadful march through history into a weekly Nickelodeon adventure. Loved it!

Very easy class. Just show up to class and the rest is simple. He gives out 3 midterms, with study guides and drops the lowest grade. Final is worth 25% but he sometime has study sessions which you should go to. Got an A in the class!

He is completely far left side democrat and anti american he always puts his views in everything and laughs way too much

Prof. Reemes is awesome! His classes aren't the funnest in the world but attendance is mandatory so bring a phone or something. Talk to him in his office hours and he will definitely help you :) Got an A in the course

Professor Reemes is awesome! He is very informative on the subject and his class is not that boring. Attendance is absolutely mandatory if you want an A in the class. His midterms and final were really easy, especially since he gave out study guides which were pretty much all I used to study. Definitely recommend him if you just want an easy A!

One of the most interesting prof. I have ever had. If you dont want to do anything dont take him bc it is a lot of work but he gives you every chance to get a really good grade in his class. Knows A TON about history and is an old Disney animator. Get him talking about anything interesting (movies, animation, history, language) & he KNOWS IT ALL!

Yes, you must write a 2-3 page summary on each chapter. It's not hard though, just time consuming (I kinda doubt he reads them). Notes are pretty useless considering you get a review before a test.Tests are so easy if you read the review and the final was CAKE! He is a GREAT professor! Lectures are interesting and he loves questions! Take him!

Great teacher. Ya, there is a lot of work involved in the class and the review packet for the test is huge, but I'm a history major so that didn't bother me. He is very approachable and you are always welcome in his office hours. There is no class structure, he babbles and you really dont need to take notes. He tries to make class fun for everyone.

Professor Reemes was actually a very interesting and good teacher. As long as you study the guides that he gives you for the test, you'll be sure to ace the test. The final was actually easy! Plus, if you attend class, it will definitely help you boost up your grade in the long run.

He makes the information covered actually interesting, which is hard to do when talking about world civilization...

The book is NEEDED for hw which is simply 2-3 pages on the chapter. 3 midterms and 1 final. As long as you pay attention, study, and ask for help you'll do fine. He's really funny and interesting teacher. He allows you to drop your lowest Midterm :]

This professor is chill and very smart. There are three midterms and you final, but drops your lowest midterm. Every week you have to turn in summaries so you have to read. Class is mandatory because he has a sign in sheet. Overall a chill professor and is helpful because towards the end of semester he gets study groups together for final.

great professor

One of the best professors that I had. Very knowledgeable, keeps the class fun and is very helpful. Also, always attend his classes and read the book it'll help you get and A. And make sure you go to his study sessions!

Old fashion guy. Doesn't use powerpoints. He just lectures the material. Weekly readings with 2-3 page summaries for each chapter. 1-2 chapters a week. Taking notes is pretty pointless. His study guide gives you literally everything you need to study for. Take another 110A professor if youre not a fan of weekly readings and long summaries

Great class. Professor Reemes probably doesn't remember me, but I'm pretty sure he changed my life. I was going through some tremendous issues at home during the time that I took his course. I started falling behind and let him know I was concerned, and he made time to talk to me right away. If it weren't for him, I would have given up on school.

He is VERY dedicated to the subject that he is teaching and kind of expects you to love it just as much as he does. If you are a history major and find the classwork exciting, this is the class for you. But for me, I found it hard because there was SO MUCH information. Way more difficult than a 100 level class should be.

He's a great teacher. His test are super easy. The only thing that sucks is you have to write like 3 pages of sumaries for each chapter. Great teacher!

Extremely chill teacher and it's a easy class. All you got to do is show up and review his study guides. He also makes the lectures interesting. Totally recommend you take his class and attend the final review session because trust me it is very helpful!

Very chill professor. If you're not interested in history you are more likely to fall asleep. He writes a key term on the board and lectures about it, so if you can take notes by just listening then great! Just study the key terms and study guide, you will get a decent grade. This is a class where you get what you worked for.

He is easy if you study enough. Attendance is mandatory (sign-up sheet). Extra credit on tests. Don't have to take notes. Summary hw is annoying. Drops lowest midterm. Final was all the info from first three midterms and a little more. If you guys want more info on an easy 'A' e-mail me at: deanemerson96@gmail

DO NOT take Mr. Reemes' class if you don't like to write. Homework is graded and is a 3-page chapter summary for each chapter (2 per week). Textbook is a must. Homework is 33% of the grade, so do not expect to skip it and pass. Exams are designed to trick you, and written answers MUST be exact. Often is off-topic during lectures.

Funniest professor ever. Easy A, don't even need to take notes. You do have to write summaries for all the chapters but those are so easy it didn't really matter. Gives extra credit. Texts are straight from the study guides he provides. Gives you answers to test the day before. Take this class if you want a chill class.

Very sarcastic professor that can be a tad annoying if youre not use to it. Lecture heavy, attendance required, 3 pages summary per chapter (22 ish chapters total), and book required. Book is one of the older edition so its cheaper. He might not be a giod choice for devout, religious students as he poke at all religions and such.
