Professor Cho is awesome with using multi-media and incorporates different fields of study into history (such an English and philosophy).
Dr. Cho is one of the best history professors. Our class had great activities and readings, and Cho is a totally fair grader. She made history interesting and relevant. I would definitely recommend her to anyone. Great use of media, such as film.

Professor Cho is a great choice for history majors. she makes her assignments challenging and thought provoking, but good grades are still easily obtainable. I really learned a lot in her class.
Hey, if the worst thing you can say about Cho is that she has a scar, then why are you complaining?
This professor was terrible! I could not understand what she said in class because she has a heavy accent. Her assignments were unclear, she yells at the students, I had a horrible semester in her class!
ONE OF THE WORST PROF. I EVER HAD. I DROPPED THE CLASS AFTER 2 CLASSES. WAY TOO MUCH WORK EVEN FOR A HISTORY MAJOR.CAN'T UNDERSTAND HER AND INFLEXIBLE WITH WORKLOAD.
HORRIBLE teacher, dont take this class. its so boring and she is impossible to understand. she also likes to keep you for an extra 20min after the class ends.
she was hard, gave kind of hard tests considering she didn't cover the info good in class. gave annoying HW and quizzes. did know a lot about history though.
absolutely the worst professor alive...if it gets any worse than this, im dropping out...DO NOT take her class, it is a waste of time and energy, she is IMPOSSIBLE
hard to understand
Professor that tries hard to make everyone learn... the only problem is nobody can understand one word that comes out of her mouth. Tries to make class a little fun, but yet, its boring to death when you can't make out what she is saying. Grades HARD
so dissapointed in her on the frist day. Dropped the course in a second
Oh, my God, kill me now. She's a really nice lady, very enthusiastic about her work, but I can't understand a word she says!!! Class is so boring, but it's cute because she still tries really hard even though she knows no one is listening.
Very confusing, can't understand her...
i never understood her. and she made all the work online. i handed in everything and she failed me because she said she never got my work she never even bothered to tell me till i e-mailed her after seeing my F online
This teacher is HORRIBLE. She is very unclear when she speaks and gives way too much work. She isn't helpful at all.
She's nice but it's hard to understand her. She obviously knows her info but all she does is talk. The work is fairly easy but its a lot of reading and extra stuff.
What did she just say? These are the only words that come out of everyone's mouth in my class. She knows that no one can understand her but she keeps going anyway.
The professor is a good one, the readings and text simultaneously apply to the work she gives, and although the course load is heavy as far as work is concerned, she seems to be a little unorganized, not sure why, but thats really my only beef.
WHOA WHOA WHOA WHOA...WHAT? It makes me soooooo angry that I got a "C" in her class because I couldn't understand a word that came out of her mouth...you can read the text though and if you have a ? about that...she'll answer it, but yo
If you expect someone who speaks your language, don't take her class.
Professors should be be required to speak clear English in order to teach. Sad, because she knows her stuff but can't communicate it to the class. Course load is fair for a college class. Just read make sure the books and you will do very well.
She is hard to understand, difficult work load, but I learned a ton. Take her if you want to learn something for once.
I cant understand a word this lady says....one word JESUS.
Whoever this "Jejus" she's always talking about was, he must have been really religious. Easy work, but be ready to relate everything to religion and the Holocaust. That is, if you can understand enough to care. Made me buy a $50 book she doesn't even want to use...only the sources matter to her.
If you're interested in having quasi-intellectual conversations about Early Western iv, take this class. If you take the class seriously/kinda seriously, you'll do fine. She's a pretty good teacher. NOTE: UNDERSTANDING HER IS A BIT OF A CHORE. ps-Don't waste money on the text, get the source book.
great course if you speak korean or what kinda sounds like baby talk
Knows exactly what she is talking about and seems like a good teacher but is very confusing to understand what she is saying. Good class if you like debates. Very few tests, which are pretty hard but still a nice lady
I didn't know god had another son name JEJUS!!!!! she tries hard to be a great professor, but it is hard to understand her b/c of her terrible accent. Says her class had nothing to do w/ memorization..but her whole midterm was terms names and dates!!!
Shes a nice lady and tried her best to get her points across. These guys JEJUS (Jesus) and I STUDDER (Aerostatle) shes always talkin about sound pretty cool. Her exams are hard but if you study you will get an A. Once you get to know her she seems like a caring woman.
Wow ok first of all this lady needs to speak English and then she could teach us, my friend and I counted once she said the work Ok in over 30 seconds!! Thats insane!!! she's helpful if you want to pass the class, i didn't do good on any of the tests but then again i didn't study but i did pass with
Just bad
She's crazy... in that haha-remember-that-crazy-prof-that-i-had-last-semester type way. Her accent is thick. I feel bad, I bet she's really a nice person but she's so difficult to understand that most people end up getting annoyed with her.
Great Class!! She knows her stuff and enjoys teaching it. Her accent is not that hard to understand. She throws a lot of information at you, but keep up with the readings and you're fine. I'd take her again.
She has to be one of the best history professors here. Her class requires extensive reading but you learn a great deal. She is fair and very helpful. You could become a Hitler biographer after her class. The knowledge she has is incredible. Take her!!!!!!
Couldn't stand the class I asked for help on several occassions and didn't recieve it. Good luck if you plan on taking her
She's pretty unclear and hard to reach. There have been numerous typos on assignments, quizzes, and even the midterm that made the questions incomprehensible. Her test questions are often ambiguous. The plus side: shes not a hard grader, and no real papers besides a single journal article analysis.
This was a great class. She knows a lot about the subject and you'll learn a lot. There's quite a bit of work but it's not that bad. I never had any problems understanding her and she always answered my emails so I don't know what everyone is talking about. I'd definately take her classes again.
I couldn't stand her class every word she says has a J in the middle of it and all I can say is thank god for cell phone games she doesnt answer e-mails and is just so dumb DONT TAKE THIS CLASS the only thing worst is smelling your own moldy armpit!!!
She is one of the best history professors this school has. The course work was hard and very demanding but you learn a ton which is the most important thing. She is very helpful and fair.
Professor Cho is one of the best professors that I have ever taken. I can't even imagine anyone posting bad things. Her classes are interesting and she really knows her stuff. I never had a problem reaching her outside of class. She was always very helpful and willing to help. The class is for those who want to learn. A++
Anyone who writes a negative about this lady is crazy! Yes, she is on the tougher side but your here to learn and learn is what you do in any of her classes. My hat goes off to Prof. Cho...Loves what she teaches and is extremely fair. German history was not my strong point going in and now I feel like an expert...take her and learn something!
Her grading is very unfair! She will always think of something to say just to lower your grade. I think I did great in her online course (as I do in ALL my classes), but she gave me a C! I don't like putting down professors but I feel like this woman loves to think she's always right so she would never compromise with any of her students. So SAD
Pop Quizzes, Checking your homework, Alphabetized Seating... go back to teaching middle school.

Cho kicks ass. She really cares about her students. she expects you to do work, so u have to read to excell. maybe it's a good thing because then we actually have to read the million dollar text books we buy. she's a very good prof with a lot of knowledge and knows how to teach it. she loves to kick back and talk with students, so stop by her offic
This Woman is all over the place She is a overall a nice woman but she has no buisness teaching. Her english is awful and she is always getting off topic or ahead of herself. She needs to calm down and take a few speech classes. Very disorganized. If you can drop this woman's class do it!
she knows what she's talking about. but she spends a fair bit of class defending herself from the attacks made by students. has trouble controling a class, but if you pay attention and take notes she tells you everything you need to know for the tests. the tests are pretty easy. Always do the essay sections, they will save your ass.
Is very confussing at what she is trying to teach.Gives too much on historians philosophies at the beginning of her Germany history class of Bismarck to hitler class.
Best Professor!
this is the WORST teacher i have ever encountered. She cannot speak english and for that reason you are forced to read the entire book just to understand the material. I do not understand what made this woman teach. I have never hated a human being as much as i hate this woman. She thinks a mandatory history class in like a graduate work class.
I had her for Hitler and Nazi era class. She gave great information and background on the subject. She can be very hard to understand, so get a seat in the front. Be in class and participate every now and then, you'll be ok.
She is a nice lady, not always clear with her assignment but is willing to give you more time to complete them. Basically, you just have to do the work and you'll do fine. There's not a lot of thought involved in her class. Just do what she asks of you and you will be fine.
Unfair, Unreasonable, Hard to Understand, don't take her. I don't know my grade yet, but I'm pretty sure I'm failing. I'll probably drop the class. This woman has no business teaching.
don't listen to what you've heard, HERE'S THE TRUTH. history is not by subject and this time i actually got it. yes she has an accent but unless you are a moron, you'll do fine. she is overwhelmingy nice and funny, the class is not boring. 10 quizes, best 6 are counted, very easy midterms n finals, she gives the essays. overall a wonderful lady.
Dr. Cho knows her stuff - had her for Hitler & The Nazi Era...the books she uses are interesting and you learn alot. You must read everything in order to pass the quizzes and final. Be prepared to write, but she helps you along the way. She is fair in every way.
Please do yourself a favor ,and do not take her for an online class !!!!!!!!HORRIBLE!
I took her on-line for an upper level history seminar on Nazi Germany. I found that she was a good teacher and was very helpful. She assigns a lot of readings and there are quizzes on the readings. We had to do two book reviews(3-4 pgs) and an 12 page research paper. I would recommend her if you are a serious history student.
This woman is an awful professor. She is incomprehensible and she demands an insane amount of work for an online class. Unfair grader as well. Her overall grade on this site is definitely an indication of her teaching abilities or lackthereof. DO NOT TAKE THIS WOMAN'S CLASS, I should've listened to my friend who took her.
I took her for an online class. Learnt a little, not much because she only tested us on things out of the "sources" book. Never met her but the class was very intense for an online. I probably got a c or c plus and i wish i would have learned more and been able to get a better grade.
she has an accent and that may lose you a bit but overall a good teacher. she believes that studying is very important and emphasizes it. she does give u quizzes mainly on the source book. Read!!! it does help u. Paper were easy and shes not a bad grader. very energetic person.
Had her for an online class. She is excellent and knows her stuff. You have to read everything she assigns as all the test materials come directly from all the readings. You also have to do two book reviews and a research paper but she guides you through everything!If you are a serious history student, take her online class - you will learn a lot!
She has a bad accent,but she speaks perfect English & you'll get used to her accent.Her notes stink,so you're going to have to read the book to study for the midterm/final.Gives online quizzes every week which are easy if you read.Gives extra credit essays to students who got less than a B on the midterm.Just READ your book & you'll pass.HOPEFULLY!
She wasn't as bad as I originally thought. Never did the readings, but they do give you a better understanding. Her notes are a bit vague, but if you just write down what she says as she goes through them it makes them much clearer. The online quizes every week weren't hard either. Did give extra credit and really knew the subject. Just sit up fron
I took her online class. Let me just say your time is dedicated to tht class if you want to pass. But if you dont understand something she has no problem explaining whats going on. I didnt get my A but i passed with a B. I never met her but she seems really cool and knows her stuff. Only take the online class if your on top of your school work
Very interested in her own subject, but impossible to understand. At times it actually seems like she lapses from english to chinese during a lecture. The notes she gives are random and unintelligible, following no path through history, but relating random crap together. Overall, bad.
It is a little hard to understand her because of her accent but other than that no one should have any complaints. She is extremely knowledgeable and can hold a class' attention. As long as you pay attention the little work she gives you should be pretty easy.
she offers extra credit and her notes are weird and she is unorganized but she is very nice and okay you can understand her but she does have an accent. she is there to help though if you need it. class itself was boring but she isnt bad or very hard.
I took her online class for a 3 week course. After reviewing the 4 pages syllabus i tried to drop the class but would have lost 50% of my tuition. My advice is to read the syllabus twice at first appearance it's not as bad as it looks. Overall not a bad class but you have to do the reading and stay focus.
She's a good professor, although you have to get used to understanding her and if you have a rowdy class, she has trouble keeping control of the room. My experience with her was so good regardless that I took a second class with her online. She's a generous grader and is very clear about her expectations. I would take her again gladly.
hahahahah
Took her class online, was a bit worried about the amount of work expected, however, it was easy. Quiz each day based on readings and movies. If you keep up, you will do fine. I got an "A".
She is very hard... cant understand a word that comes out her mouth, Very bad teacher
Definitely NOT the type of class I was expecting and hoping for. She is impossible to follow, the textbooks are ridiculous, and I didn't learn a thing. It's unfortunate, too, because I am very interested in the subject.
Dr. Cho is a great professor. Her assignments are challenging yet very interesting at the same time. She limits the readings to exactly what you need, although you may want to keep on reading. There is a research paper, but it can be on almost any related topic. You will have to work hard for your grade but you will learn a lot.
Possibly the worst class ever - about such an interesting subject. Thought I would learn a lot, but didn't. Quizzes were misleading, but when questioned, she did give points back. how many times did I get 1 wrong & not question though? HARD,HARD,HARD. Self guided tour through 8 textbooks, no e-mail response when asked ?'s. Hitler took over my life.
Professor Cho utilizes many types of teaching materials - books, movies, news footage, etc which brings this era of history to life. Her knowledge of Hitler is excellent. She is tough but you will learn everything you ever wanted to know about the history of the Nazis and the persecution of millions of people.
I took her class online. There is a lot of work for a gen ed class but it is worth it. I learned a lot. She is very clear in what she wants and answers emails quickly. Not an easy a but still a great class.
The most annoying professor I have ever had. You can't understand her, she explains nothing, tells you nothing, and does not help you at all. She will drag out conversation to reach the very last minute of class. She assigned a paper every class (no other seminar classes had to write more than 1 paper) But I went to her class 5 times and got a B
I really loved her class. She can sometimes be difficult to understand, but her enthusiasm about her subject is contagious. She is always happy to repeat herself or help you understand anything you missed - and she's a very fair grader.
I was really excited to take this class. I am very interested in the subject matter. If I could change one thing i wouldn't take it in the winter and definitely not online. Gives a research paper and tons of assignments which in my opinion were too much for such a short amount of time. I worked really hard and found myself spending a lot of time.
I was excited to take this course but she took it so far and beyond what it needed to be. Spent all this money on 4 books and we could not even use them to site a 8-10 page paper. I understand a lot of work but this was just way too much for a 3week course. This was easy for her because she teaches it every semester, copy and paste was all she did.
Prof Cho answers emails back pretty quickly and you can always give her a call during office hours. Her syllabus is very organized with two discussions and a very short quiz a week but grades best 4 out of 5 for example. Theres more assignments but overall a good class. If your into the subject and don't mind the workload you'll like this class.
Dr. Cho is absolutely fantastic. Her methodology may seem off but youll realize at the end of the semester you learned so much. There are 4 books and theyre cheap. There are book quizzes on BB, theres two exams (one she made take home,) 2 presentations, and an 8 page paper. Extra credit like CRAZY!
I had Dr. Cho for Master's capstone and Nazi Germany. Very knowledgeable about WWII. Classes can be difficult at times but she is willing to help if you ask. As an added bonus, you will also not go hungry in her class!
I had Prof. Cho for two classes, HIST3490 and HIST4800. If I'm being completely honest when I first had her I wasn't her biggest fan, but by the end of my first semester with her I had to take another one of her classes. If you do your best work, show up to class, and participate you're assured to do well. Also if she offers extra credit DO IT!
Really unorganized and terrible with communication. Would show movies sped up for the duration of class for some weird reason. PowerPoints make zero sense and she babbles for so long. Really poor professor.
Cho is undoubtedly lovely but is quite disorganized. The material we needed to study for regarding two massive tests were given last minute. Gets off topic often, encourages students to talk about things completely unrelated to the lesson, and didnt give us much to work with regarding topics to pick for our paper. Disappointing b/c she IS sweet.
Overall was a great class and Professor provides all the material needed online. Clear instructions on assignments. You will have 3 essays, 3 discussion boards, movie quizzes, & reading quizzes.
