She knows A LO

She was one of the best prof's i had and i am now taking courses taught by her

very good. Knows her material. Always there to help me.

Wonderful person who has the knowledge and background to make history interesting for her students. An inspiration! She is the reason why I am a history teacher. Thanks Dr. Bosak!

I LOVE DR.BOSAK!! She is the greatest prof i have had. She will always help and even though she seems intimidating at first, she is actually very helpful. She knows her stuff.. She is a slow marker and digresses a lot but other than that she is perfect!

she is really great. entertaining and informative. Uses boring textbooks, but makes up for it with interesting lectures

An excellent professor. It's a pleasure to take her courses.

Digresses A LOT but it's mostly interesting and she always gets back on track. She definately eeds to give more direction when it comes to term papers and assignments though.

very interesting and very helpful...worldy and sophisticated!!!

Dr. Bosak is a grrat professor , i would recommend her to anyone , although don't be frightened at first cause she can be a little intimidating ! Don't worry you'll get your tests and papers eventually!!

excellent professor!

bravo! excellent prof. entertaining stories, and the lectures were a pleasure to attend and made friday mornings 9:00 much more interesting. no matter how hard core the hangover from breezeway, always managed to make it to her class and stay awake!

amazing prof, had her last year, have her twice next term. She is scaray at first but when she starts telling stories about her trips to eastern europe shes hilarious.

I thought she was great, always tellling interesting stories.

I loved being in her classes. She was intimidating at first, but I learned so much about the history of Eastern Europe in her classes. She has the best stories!

good prof, a little bit all over the place with in class notes, but if you ask her to clarify something she will

She's Brilliant! I loved her class!! How could you not?

Very interseting person. However, all over the place in class with the notes and can be quite intimidating! If you want to have a final good grade avoid this professor.

I thought Dr. Bosak was very fair and very helpful and she knows a lot about what she is teaching. She was kind of scary my first year but then I had her again and found that she was great. Everyone take not though, it's worth it to go to class!!!

good prof, these other students dont understand that in a 2 or 3000 level course you should know how to take shorthand notes, and know what to write down, also i would like to see you people grade 100 to 150 papers in 2 or 3 weeks.

I find that these other people who have had Bosak , do not understand what she is trying to do. She is given a very small amt of time to teach a course and she does it well. Go talk to her outside of class... she is awesome!

Although it is hard to take notes in her class, I found it very intersting. She is big on mutiple choice and takes pride in them cause they will really fool you up. Overall, she was a good prof. and I would take her again.

I will agree that she is very scattered. However, she is very willing to help anyone that has a problem. The best way to excel in her class is to go prepared. One of the nicest profs in mun!!!!

For you first years who think she's mean, she's really not. She's like any other first year prof, she's trying to scare you into doing good. She really enjoys history and makes it interesting, especially when she teaches something that she can personally relate to. Not a bad marker either.

I have done eight courses with her and she is awesome.she is a little hard to follow sometimes but you just have to pay attention.if she knows that you are interested then she will be very helpful.i am finished my history major but i am taking another course from her because i love her

Dr. Bosak is an excellant woman, She knows her material, although she is often all over the place, and sometimes dosen't say some words in English. She is always willing to help with any questions you have, even in her off hours. Very nice prof. But speaks too fast!

A good professor but tends to go off on tangents that last all class. She is a fair marker but sometimes can be a little unclear so ask her questions. Her personal life stories are interesting & make class go by quick. Taking notes can be hard but just read the text. She seems mean but really isn't!

People say she is a bit of a hard ass, but she really isn't. At first it seems like she is a really hard person to learn off. All you have to do is try you best to follow along in class and READ the text, and she is really good at answering ?'s. Great Prof...Great Marker...i willtake herclass again

Like a serial killer, she's a fascinating person to learn from with her experiences, but don't approach her in her chosen profession. Interesting to listen to, but ridiculously subjective and ambiguous multiple choice exam laid smackdown to my average. That much tuition could've bought groceries.

I am a history major and most of my courses for my degree I have done with her. Great teacher, intersting, and always willing to help. For those who think otherwise, she warns you her multiple choice exams are hard and only wants to see her students do good. Always willing to help her students.

i love dr.bosak.she is the greatest prof ever.i dont know why people think she is unapproachable because i have spent hours in her office just talking about history.if she knows you are passionate she will love you.she is disorganized but arent we all? i have done 8 courses with her and i love her!

I guess there's a difference in people who want to work for their degrees and learn something, and those who want it handed to them. Yes, Dr. Bosak is a hard marker. But she IS approachable and cares for her students. Make the effort and you will be rewarded. She teachs students how to improve as historians.

I love this woman i never got below an 80 in her courses and i think she is totally interesting if you go in and think oh she is terrible she will be terrible but if you take time to get to know her she is awesome and i know a lot of people who feel the same SHE IS GREAT

Very slack and understanding. Gets off track easily in lectures... but they're always interesting no matter

Very good prof. Fairly easy tests and she's not too hard on the papers either. Her lectures are interesting because she has a lot of personal stories, especially when she talks about areas her family is from. Very understanding prof whose willing to help you out.

Has a sense of humour, knows what she's talking about, teaches more than what's simply in the book. Overall an excellent teacher.

German history was great with her , she made it very easy to follow and really taught me a lot. She does go off on tangents , but they are always interesting. If you go to her for help she is always very understanding and will give you help in any way possible. She's kinda scarey at first , but nothing to worry about . Her bark is worse than her bi

Very nice teacher. She gets sidetracked easily however her stories are interesting to listen to and if you LIKE history can actually be useful in the long run. She makes it obvious what she's going to be looking for test-wise however will occasionally throw curve balls. KNOW your material and GO to classes, she teaches a lot.

Had Dr.Bosak for almost every class she teaches. Trust me on this one, the bad reviews of Dr.Bosak are written by lazy students who probably don't go get help.Dr.Bosak is all bark and no bite, if you show interest in improving your grade then she will help you do anything. Also, don't get bored by her stories, if you pay attention they have meaning

Dr. Bosak is a wonderful lady. She is so incredibly helpful, and even if her lectures have a slight tendency to be tangential sometimes, they're interesting, and I have always felt like I was learning something when talking to her. Her grades are really fair, and she will do anything for her students. You really couldn't ask for more.

Dr. Bosak is incredibly interesting. She gives lots of commentary that you don't find in text books. Her mid-term is fair if you read the text and go to class. The paper topics were good and the final was as expected. She's pretty helpful outside of class if you ask the right questions. Overall, an OK course.

I have to agree with the "all bark, no bite" comment. She has expectations, but I think they're entirely fair. The women is very intelligent and if you have an actual conversation with her, you'll see that she cares very much about her students.

Dr. Bosak was a great prof! she was very helpful whenever I had issues with my paper , she was very easy to approach and she was extremely nice to sit down and have a conversation with :) I have been out of university for over 2 years , and we still stay in contact :)

O-K prof. Pretty intense...loves History... can be unclear on what she wants... sometimes expects a lot/too much... but helpful. Takes FOREVER to hand back tests/assignments. Some of her marks don't make sense - she can be either a hard or easy marker. Midterm exam was a joke.

This prof was an absolute gem. Between her personal experience in some of the time frames and her noticeable love for History, I was able to get through this course with no problems and became one of the best parts of my day. Recommended to any history major.

I did both her gypsy course and the Holocaust course. I absolutly LOVE Dr. Bosak. She seems scary at first but honestly she cared sooooo much about her students its unreal. Show her some common courtesy and interest and she's an absolute DOLL!

She's a great prof. All you have to do is show you're interested, and that you're dedicated. She's all bark and her stories in the long run, help. Her stories actually helped me remember the lecture better. Will do ANYTHING to help students who show that they are interested in suceeding in her course. I love her. Would love to do MORE with her.

I can't help but laugh about all the people complaining on here. Dr. Bosák is a wonderful woman who knows her stuff and has the ability to make history interesting. She is one of the best professors I have ever had. Do not be intimidated by negative reviews, she really is amazing! Do your work, show your interest, she is worth it!

this prof is my favorite at mun! shes sweet and helpful. She talks very fast in class but if you ask her to slow down it ll be good. Take her classes !!

Dr. Bosak was by far one of my favourite profs at MUN. She was an absolute delight and I enjoyed going to her class. Yes she does veer off topic with a story or two, but they are always interesting and in a way- relevant. Some say that she is a bit tough, but as long as you show up and participate you will learn a lot. A fair marker overall.

She has a rep for being unapproachable but she really isn't. Dr. Bosák will go out of her way to help you as long as you make an effort in her class. She does not know how to do ppt presentations or anything on the overhead - she teaches like she was taught so you'd better take notes! Nothing wrong with that at all. If you don't want to work, drop.

I took a few courses from her. She is great. She doesn't spoon feed you but she is very helpful and understanding if you go to see her. She knows her stuff and expects her students to work hard.

She is wonderful. She has lived the history she teaches. She brings her own great stories to a wonderful course.IF YOU DONT WANT TO WORK DROP. All these people complaining, obviously just got on her bad side. Be nice, and work. Ask questions. Get involved in her class. That's what she likes.

Dr. Bosak is an amazing professor! Her lectures might be a little all over the place but that is because she includes stories of her own experiences which helps you understand the situation more than class notes! I would definitely recommend taking a course with her, her stories are amazing and she's more than willing to help her students.

Dr. Bosak is a awesome professor. She expects a lot from her students, but is more than willing to help. She comes off as a tough professor, but is super nice and helpful. I would defiantly recommend taking her class.

I took multiple course with her at the third level and fourth including Roma history, Holocaust and German History. Write down everything she says make a chance to meet her and show her you're interested and you'll be fine. She is 100% reasonable if you approach her respectfully and once the formalities are over, she's great!

Proffesor provides a solid outline for note readings. Attendance is a must. Easy to approach outside of class, must make an appointment.

I see a lot of first years on here saying "she gives no notes," well I'm sorry, but when she speaks you need to take the notes. She doesn't spoon feed you like high school. She's an excellent prof. If she see's you're putting effort in, she will help you any way she can. Excellent prof. Makes me feel like I'm living the history she speaks about

A really great professor who has great stories and is able to make anything she speaks about interesting and easy to understand as she is passionate about what she speaks about. Just make sure you go to class and read the syllabus.

Dr. Bosák is by far my favourite history prof at MUN. The holocaust course was all movies, 2 papers and a critique. She is a very fair marker and will accommodate you as best as she can. She is hilarious and has so much experience in the subjects she teaches. 10/10 recommend taking this course with her. I loved her.

Dr. Bosak is a fantastic professor who cares deeply about her students. Shes known for jumping from one topic to the next, but if you do the readings youll be able to follow along with what shes talking about. For course material shes one of the best for giving all relevant information. Shes fair for grading and easy to reach for questions.

Edita is such a sweet lady. Technology is not her strong suit and she can go off on rants about things that don't have any relevance to the course but all of that is not that big of an obstacle. The course was only three pieces of evaluation, but they were rather straightforward. Get those pencils ready though because you will need to take notes.
