What Students Say
“Great guy but overall not the best teacher you write essays using the notes which are easy A's but then he gives a 60 question final with a word bank that's all jumbeled up and then it messes you're grade up I went from like a 100 to an 85 but still he's better then other professors TBH take him if you can”
HIS131 - 3.0 rating“Nice guy and pretty fun class but don't expect an easy A because he counts attendance and class participation and he expects EVERYTHING in his essays and will take points off if any material is missing also don't be more than 10-15 minutes late”

Probably the best proffessor in this school. He is very unique. It's impossible to fall asleep. He's halarious and a really good proffessor. I hate history and he actually made it fun. I recommend highly!
Amazing teacher! New to mcc this year. uses no notes yet very smart. Gives take home exams and always reviews. TAKE HIS CLASS
Best teacher ever! Class is easy because it is so clear and has a lot of info so you understand. I've never experienced a class with so much info lectured in such a great way.Like the subject or not, when you take this class you will learn and love it. Can't beat a guy with passion and knowledge and can apply it.
Great professor, Very helpful and clear. If you have a choice take him!
OMG what a pleasant delight in the late morning and middle afternoon. I love his class and the teacher is amazing and he is hot. Alot of information given from knowledge, but gives you alot of time to get all the information you need. TAKE HIS CLASS
Great Professor! Make sure you don't miss a class since the essays are based on it. Come to class do the work and get the grade. It's that easy. Be familiar on how to take decent notes.
He would be just as great of a comedian as he is a professor. He is genius and very passionate in his teachings. You look forward to going to his class! Trust me I COULD NOT STAND HISTORY until him. I refuse to take any history class if it is not with him. Your hand might hurt at the end of class but it is COMPLETELY worth it. and he's hot!
The best professor!!! I learned a lot take him you will not regret it but attendance is mandatory
This professor is funny and totally full of energy. He loves what he does, unlike many at MCC, and makes the material interesting. Grades are based largely on taking good notes on his lectures, but if you're prepared to go, do this, and work on your essays early, he'll look over drafts, which is very helpful.
best teacher i have ever had! P. Constantino keeps the class engaged,creates an atmosphere where students WANT to participate & take part in the discussions. he will go over any material you choose before a test to ensure you will recieve the best possible grade. He's purely amazing and you wont want to have any other professor for history after
this was THE best professor i have ever had. possibly the best history class i have ever taken. You can tell he loves what he teaches and it compels you to feel the same. I would recommend everyone to take his class
The best history teacher ever! I am a history major, so I have taken a good share of history classes. But this one was truly remarkable. I have never been in a class where the attendance rate is almost 100% every class. Truly amazing teacher. Extremely knowledgable. Never uses own notes to teach.Deserves to be teaching in a much better institution.
BEST history teacher at mcc. take him! does not make class boring at all, but be prepared to take alot of notes.
Doesn't get much better then this man. Awesome teacher! He is one of a kind. Really goes out of his way to teach and makes sure you get it. I wasn't too much of a hisory fan before I took his class and now I can't say enough about it.
An active, very knowledgeable, & caring teacher. You can tell that his work is his passion & he wants sincerely for you to learn so he goes to great (& even funny) lengths for you to do so. At one point he jumped on a table & said Islam is a religion of peace, which it is! and states things the way they are. Can't miss class & lots of writing.
awesome professor, all you have to do is go to class and pay attention and youll get a good grade, no tests all you have to do is write your notes word for word in an essay for your grades (if you take good notes very easy). Little homework and hes very entertaining, i enjoyed going to his class alot.
simply amazing the best history teacher you will ever have
extremly funny and teaches very well
best teacher
Probably the most helpful teacher you will ever meet. He truly does goes all out in trying to help and ensure you do well, not just in school, but all around. Class goes by fast since you are actually enjoying the subject. Just attend and participate and you are basically set. I have never met a professor like him. Take him..you wont regret it!
Constantino's class is unique expeirence you do not come across often. He is knowledgable and extremely passionate about his subject, you will see him jump on chairs and sweat explaining things to you. He makes history material vivid and memorable. His home essays are long and very detailed, however I believe most of the class got A and B.Take him!
He has the passion for teaching that all teachers should have. He loves the subject he teaches and it shows; he runs around the classroom, breaks a sweat, screams out loud, and jumps on desks in order for his students to understand. He teaches history as if hes telling a story & really captivates his audience. Doesn't hurt that he's good looking ;)
He was a great professor very, VERY passionate about history and his students. His tests were extrememly easy. Don't miss any classes because for his tests you have to rewrite the notes in the form of a report. Exactly what he says word for word. Very nice gentleman. No text books, only as reference for clarification.
hes jus AWESOME!!! hes funi..hes intellignt...hes loud get ready not to sleep in his class...!! hes jus supperb! :) ull pass with an A ..n ull fail with a B trust me!!
Best history teacher at middlesex!!!
I'm not in his class, but I hear him screaming and yelling from the room next door. Our prof asked asked him to lower his voice, but Constantino still yells every single word. Why can't he use his "inside voice"? Our prof is moving us to another room. I'd hate to be his student. My hears would bleed.
this person is out of their mind. his voice and teaching style make the class great. maybe this person should attend his class before passing judgment.
Pure genius! Doesn't use the book, doesn't ask you to turn to page so and so. Everything he tells you is from memory, including quotes. He is loud, sarcastic, funny, and Intelligent! He is the definition of an amazing professor. He loves what he teaches and that makes you want to attend and LEARN! Recommend for everyone.
Best teacher at middlesex for sure. for that kid who said something about their teacher, Professor Constantino is not loud and obnoxius, ive learned more with him than any teacher in h.s. Maybe youre teacher is stuck up and a prick. WANT to come to class at 8 a.m. He is hilarious and does his best to make sure you do well in his class.
Best Professor i have ever had. He has inspired me to become a college professor to teach kids the right way. He gives out good grades but its because he teaches the material so well you earn the A. All around great guy. Doesnt just teach history but gives you life lessons as well.
I've learned a lot about history in his class. Thinks he knows every thing. Very funny and caring. Love attending his class.
He is not your typical professor, but he is a great teacher nonetheless. He has an amazing personality and unique teaching style that helps you remember the material. Overall, his class was very interesting and his tests were time-consuming, but you do learn about everything you need to know.
best history professor at mcc. hes the greatest. he goes out of his way just to help you. if you have any questions about anything. he will help you with them. take this professor and you wont regret it.
He was the best professor i've ever had. He cared about his students and he was a great teacher. he always answered any questions and was very understanding. No other teacher is like him. Def take this teacher for history, he's awesomeeee :)
BEST CLASS, BEST PROFESSOR I THINK I WILL EVER HAVE. He goes in extreme detail of what he is teaching. He does not teach from the book. Everything is from his own knowledge. He is very intelligent and a overall great guy. Fun class and I enjoyed learning every class!
He's definitely a character. You will need to come to class and participate, otherwise don't expect to get a good grade. Very passionate about his subject, always tries to make the class interesting, especially if the topic gets boring. Good for those who are not particularly interested in history- he'll make you love it
What a truly inspiring individual! I have never seen someone so passionate before. Forget the textbook, this guy is a wealth of knowledge. He is an individual filled with integrity. Taking him again for 122. TAKE HIM. Best class I have ever had!!!
Professor Constantino is an amzing man! I admire him so much he is a true individual, he knows everything, he goes out of his way to help his students, his passion spreads like wildfire and makes you love whatever he is teaching. Take him he is fantastic! one of THE best professors at mcc... he changed my life! he is That important!
Best Professor I've ever had. I literally recommend him to EVERYBODY. Love him!
Greatest professor I have ever had. I learned so much from him not just history. Take this professor at MCC trust me you won't be dissappointed. He is so enthusiastic its contagious. He is extremely smart and cares about his students. Attend, participate, listen and take notes you will do well.
One word, amazing. In every detail. He is still my favorite professor to this day and always will be. I wish he taught at my new school. Too bad he doesn't believe in the way things go at larger schools. He is so knowledgeable, I felt like I could have stayed in class for longer. More than just an easy A for me. Good person.
He is an amazing professor. no textbook required because he is the textbook! So much energy he teaches. Offers all the help he can give, but he makes you work. Show up, participate, take all notes, do his papers, and u will pass.
Professor Constantino is honestly the best teacher I've ever had. He is so dedicated and passionate about his work that is so contagious. He's extremely funny and does anything he can to make the class interesting. Participation is a must, as well as attendance and note-taking. You will not regret taking him. He also really really hot.
He is literally the BEST professor ever!!!!! I've never met someone so passionate. He makes you want to come to class and learn. I had him for HIS 121 as well and would have sooner waited a semester to take him again then take someone else for history. Dont pass him up. I promise you wont regret it. Sign up FAST because he WILL be the FIRST FULL!!!
One word.... AMAZING!! I was never a big history fanatic, but now i am. He is like a human textbook. He goes through everything step by step, offers to help and much more. I already booked his HIS 122 class!! TAKE HIM, YOU WON'T REGRET IT!!
Professor Constantino is the best college professor I've had by far! This man has an awesome personality, super friendly, and is very helpful. You don't need the book because he knows the material. And his teaching style will keep you interested. I've learned a lot during this semester. Such a rewarding class!
I'm a junior at MCC and I knew he'd be my favorite professor yet. Extremely passionate about the subject and his job, cares about you learning and your well-being, enthusiastic, insane which makes him that much more interesting haha, absolutely hilarioussss, etc. I am so glad I took him this semester and will most definitely be taking him next :)
HANDS DOWN THE BEST PROFESSOR AT MIDDLESEX. yu don't need the book cause everythings in his brain that he'll share wit yu. I don't like social studies but I love it now and learned so much. he's funny, smart, wonderful personality and great, yu'll lOVE HIM AND THE CLASS. WHAT A GREAT GUY
Best HIS prof in MCC, must take, only three essays, no textbook needed,take notes and participate in class, you will surely get A+.. funny, intelligent, helpful, intersting, down to earth
Best Prof at MCC in history or any other subject!
Best professor ever. Really knows his material! You dont need the book, he is your textbook! If you ever have a problem he is easy to work with. No tests, just essays on his material. You need to go to class in order to get his notes. Makes me die laughing. Im graduating this semester and I would come back just to be in his class again.
This man is the best professor I've ever had. Very funny and very clear. No textbook needed, he is the book! He has the ability to make history interesting to anyone. Only class where I would hate to have to miss it. If you're looking for an extremely smart, funny, and interesting professor, this is your guy! Don't use your phones though!
This guy is the bomb. Class goes by fast because you learn alot and he is pretty humorous and friendly. Definitely recommend him you will learn so much history and enjoy his class. He does grade hard on papers though and talks to fast so it's hard to keep up with his notes. Overall great professor i will miss this class.
I could write a book on why you should take this guy. He has to be one of the easiest professors at that college. He genuinely cares about you and if you do good. If you ever need anything, go to him. He'll help you pass the class with a good grade, unlike everyone else who set you up to fail. Take him take him take him. So easy.
BEST PROFESSOR EVER! I hated history before taking his class. He makes it interesting. I found myself coming home and talking to my husband about the things I learned in his class. He goes out of his way to help you even with other classes. AWESOME GUY. Papers are easy if you go to class and take notes. He goes over everything.
I hope professor Constantino reads his rate my professor comments because he is such an awesome teacher who deserves recognition and to know how his students feel about him. I hear students talk about him all the time in classes that I have and he is just an overall great person. I wish all of my professors had as much passion about teaching.
Awesome Awesome Professor. He is so funny during classes. I learn a lot for his history class. He HATES how the college priced the textbook so high, dont buy it. He is one of the few professors that i enjoyexcited to come to class.
Professor Constantino is like none other. He is absolutely hilarious, but there is so much more to him than that. He is an incredible man and educator full of information and passion. He sincerely loves what he does and truly cares about his students. Professors like him seem to be few and far between, so if you get the opportunity, take him :)
BEST PROFESSOR EVER!!!! He is hysterical! But he is a very smart passionate man that cares about his students. I hated history until I took his class! He makes learning fun. I really learned a lot, and you don't need a textbook! TAKE HIM HE IS AMAZING!
BEST PROFESSOR EVER HANDS DOWN. Never liked history in my life but I looked forward to going to his class all the time he is so funny so sweet so incredibly smart! He remembers every single detail you don't need the textbook he is the textbook himself. So down to earth and a bit crazy and did I mention he's hilarious?
Every college needs a million more professors like him. He is truly amazing. Take him it will be the best class you've ever had. He is an easy grader, will help you out with anything, and all in all cares for his students and wants you to do so well! He will make sure of it that you get an A+ in his class and without the tests and dreadful quizzes!
History was never my thing; my idea of a history class was an boring, old man reading random facts from a power point that I could not care less about. Professor Constantino's class was the antithesis of this. If you choose any other professor for a history course, you are depriving yourself of an amazing experience and of an education.
Constantino is the best professor i've ever had. He's not only an amazing professor but an amazing person. he really does care about his students and their grades int he class. He's loud and obnoxious but his teaching style really helps when remembering the information. He truly is amazing and would take him again in a heart beat.
Constantino is an amazing professor!! Took him for HIS 121 and 122. Being in his class was truly an experience. Loved coming to class- he is super funny and passionate about what he teaches. Very helpful and clear. Going to miss him.
awesome Professor, he can discuss any topic and uses historical evidences. he is so funny and loved by many students who always want retake his classes, too bad he only teaches certain history classes. I learn a lot from his notes and he enjoys teaching which is his passion. texbook is not needed. and writes all the essays plus the extra credit one
He is a great and funny professor. Though you'll have to pay extra attention to while taking notes. Thankfully, when he says, "Write it down" That's the signal to write down notes. If I were to take another history class, I'd want him as my professor.
The guys is extremely smart who is as passionate about history as the students welfare. "Focus on the learning," he says, "and the grades will follow." Simple, but such profound words. Exsistence of professors such as these, is the proof that god really loves us.
The mcc family should be proud to call him a professor here. From the getco he demonstrated a care for his students learning and maturing. His lectures are most likely unrivaled in passion and comedy. I even became upset when class was cancelled! He teaches like its the last lecture of his life and the student cant help but be memerized by the zeal
I loved taking his class. He gives the course in such a way where you automatically memorize the info. If I didn't like history before his class .. Now I actually love it! His tests are not bad, just show up to class and you must take notes! His sense of humor is a bonus too! I'd take all over again. Textbook isn't needed for he is the textbook!
Constantino is amazing! He loves what he does and is SO passionate about history and teaching. Attendance is mandatory and participation is a must. Really awesome guy and really awesome class. He'll tell you what to write down for notes. Take notes, pay attention, show up, and participate and you'll pass. Don't buy a book.
The brilliant madman of MCC. He assigned 2 extremely long papers (taken directly from notes in class, which is mandatory if you want to pass, anywhere from 9-15 pages if you want a good grade). Demands attention every minute of class, but extremely funny and knowledgeable. You will learn. Do not buy the textbook. Get a tape recorder instead.
He is the single greatest professor at MCC. period. I liked him so much I asked him if we could have an extra lecture after the final just for fun and I never considered myself a fan of history. Every teach should follow his philosophy.
Amazing
Hands down best professor I've ever had. Extremely funny and makes class so enjoyable, even at 8am. Attendance and participation are mandatory. No tests just have to write a lengthy essay but only from his notes so basically just typing your notes. Recommend him to everyone.
Prof Constantino is honestly my favorite teacher I have taken so far. He is extremely knowledgeable and makes learning fun and easy! Not only is he funny, his lectures make you want to attend class. Great teacher, highly recommend!
My favorite professor I have taken so far, he is amazing and very passionate about the course material. He is very big on class participation. As long as you come to class and take notes. There is no way you can fail.
He is a really great teacher. Need to be conscious all the time. He is the only one professor throughout my life at MCC really cares about participation and attendance, so do not miss any class. Overall, he is a great teacher.
This man has such a passion for teaching that I have never seen before. 100% recommend him. I wish I could have taken another one of his classes. The textbook is not needed. Absolutely phenomenal!
Constantino is one of the best professors I ever had. He'll basically give you an A if you take good notes and participate. Take him as soon as you get the chance.
One of the best professors at MCC. Amazing lectures and hilarious professor. Come to class and take good notes. Dont buy the textbook, you dont need it. Highly recommend anyone to take this prof.
Hand down the best professor. In short, take him!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Best professor at MCC by far!! I am not a fan of History but his class was well worth taking. I will be taking him again next semester. He really cares about his students and wants us to do well. As long as you make an effort and participate, he will make sure you do well. MUST TAKE, you will NOT regret it!
Professor Constantino is an incredible Professor. It's an easy grade, but you do have to work for it by attending every single class, taking the notes, and writing long (but easy) essays. This class will change your opinion of history and education. Plus, the guy is hilarious. The first 20 minutes of every class is a comedy show.
I hate history, but Professor Constatino made this course so enjoyable. He has such a passion for teaching and deeply cares about his students. Participation is a must and you should not miss any classes because each class you write a good amount of notes. Make sure your essay is full of detail and you study for exams.
Professor Constantino was seriously one of my favorite professors! Come to class at least 15 minutes after it starts, don't miss a class because it will effect you. You have the option to dye essays that come straight from the notes and ONLY THE NOTES. OR if some of your classmates mess it up for you like they did to me you'll have tests with about 50 to 60 questions on everything you learned, which I enjoyed doing that as well. Great thing about this class is you don't need a text book, and don't worry about what time you take this class he'll have you full awake by the end of the class! Do the work EASY A, and you'll remember so much after this class as well.
Very energetic and upbeat prof. His lectures are good and his way of teaching will certainly keep your attention throughout the semester. As long as you show up for his lectures, participate and write down everything he tells you to, you'll pass.
Decided to take this class as a requirement and I couldn't be happier! This guy is a comedian and the best professor I've had yet at MCC! First 20 minutes of class is a comedy show , he manages to include everything he needs to and makes you love history. Best professor ever
This guy could not be any more passionate about history. He know his stuff and will make sure you understand what he is trying to teach you. Easy A if show up to class, take notes and participate.
Professor Constantino is a crazy fun professor. Lots of notes but he tells you what to exactly write. We had papers as our tests directly on our notes burn because someone cheated we had tests in class which were sort of hard. Other than that, he will have you crying laughing. Definitely recommend him but you can't miss class bc you NEED the notes!
I'm so happy I enrolled in Professor Constantino's class. I've never seen anyone with so much energy at 8 am. I would highly recommend taking his class, but you have to take it very seriously because missing a class means you miss so much information for the essays and exam. Lastly, he's a great guy and tells a great story of Western Civ.
I took Constantino for 3 semesters at MCC and I'm sad my time is over with him. He is so passionate about what he teaches and is the most entertaining man on the planet. He makes you want to learn and come to class. HIGHLY RECCOMEND
BE READY TO WRITE. This man can talk really fast! He is so passionate about what he teaches its amazing but he is very straight forward. He doesn't take BS because he doesn't give it. I learned so much, this wasn't just a learn it get tested on it and forget it class. If you don't mind showing up to EVERY class, TAKE HIM!
Awesome professor I have taken prof. J constintino two times and would take him again if My stay at mcc was longer He is the best history teacher of all time and of all kinds I have taken for west Civ as well as world hist take him you won't be disappointed master piece, extroadinary refreshing, maticulous, great, he has changed history forever
I've never seen a professor with as much passion as this guy. He makes you love history even if you dont. Just show up and take notes, thats all. Your grade also depends on your participation. Best professor ever. Take him, you wont regret it.
Before I begin the comment on October 7,2011 was probably from an ignorant professor. Professor Constantino is the BEST, no book needed and it is an easy A. Participation does count! So if you have an A and you don't participate you will end up with a C. Take him and I promise from the first day you will love his class! He is amazing!
THE BEST professor you'll ever have. He's caring, energetic, & crazy in a good way kind of guy. The classes are jampacked with information from him, no textbook. There are no tests, I took HIS122 w/him before and the only test we had to take at that time was a final(got an A). Write papers using all of the notes he gave you, super easy & fun class!
If I can describe this man in one word it would be "crazy" like seriously but he's probably one of the best professors at MCC take him you wont regret it!!!!
Great guy but overall not the best teacher you write essays using the notes which are easy A's but then he gives a 60 question final with a word bank that's all jumbeled up and then it messes you're grade up I went from like a 100 to an 85 but still he's better then other professors TBH take him if you can
Best history professor ever! Makes the class entertaining and tells history like a story. Theres take home essays and then the final is a fill in the blank exam. Its not that hard just show up to class and take notes. Would definitely take his class again. One of the best professors at MCC.
AMAZING!!! He's honestly the best prof Ive had at MCC! He so funny and amazing at teaching history. Ive learned so much from him, and he really makes the topic interesting. I will def take him again! He only gives essays to do, and If you take down the notes, you'll get an A on the essays.
Very down-to-earth professor. The class is very simple. Come to class, participate, take notes, and write essays about the notes. Guaranteed A if you do all of the above. At the end, you take a final that has 50-60 fill-in-blank questions. It is not hard at all if you reviewed ahead of time. Absolutely love this professor & makes history enjoyable.
My beloved commander!! Best professor I've ever taken at MCC! He's super funny and nice and, makes you enjoy the class even if you have zero interest in History. He likes to get to know his students and is always willing to stay after and explain something you didn't understand. He does reviews before test!!! I would take him again in a heartbeat.
Nice guy and pretty fun class but don't expect an easy A because he counts attendance and class participation and he expects EVERYTHING in his essays and will take points off if any material is missing also don't be more than 10-15 minutes late. Overall, he's a pretty cool guy and teacher but he doesn't give an A if you don't do it all usually B/B+
Fun class only 3 essays and a fill in the blank final exam in the end also take good notes and participate and you will get an A!!!
show up, take great notes, and pass.
Best prof at mcc hands down. Alot of information, alot of writing but alot of learning. Definitely recommend
Great class, great professor. Take home essays and in class final. Attendance is a must. Loved the class and learned a lot.
greatest professor at MCC for the essays just remember to put every note you take in the essay as he will explain, great guy class is so interesting and always entertaining, took him for HIS 131 and 132 got A's
Probably one of the best professors at MCC. He is one of those few professors that actually makes you like going to class. He is very passionate in what he teaches and because of this he is well respected by his students. It almost made me want to switch my major to history, that how amazing this professor is.
Professor Constantino is absolutely incredible. I loathe history but I looked forward to his lectures. The class is so easy, just show up and take the notes and go home and type the notes. Boom. That's literally it. His essays are literally just the notes he gives you verbatum. He's also hilarious and keeps you awake because he's constantly yelling
One of my favorite college professors ever. So knowledgeable and makes everything so funny. His lectures are basically a hilarious performance where he tells you everything to write down. Hes also such a nice man. Take him for as many history classes as you can!!! You'll love him
PU YI! (You'll understand once you take World History II). By far the best instructor i've ever had.
The most Hilarious and caring professor you will ever have he wants everyone to do well and will help all his students succeed he's only strict over attendance and due dates on essays other than that the class is honestly an easy B but you have too work hard for an A take him if you have to take a history class you won't regret it ;-)
My favorite professor I've ever taken! He keeps you interested in the lectures even if you don't like history. I loved going to his class, he's a ball of energy, and I love his sense of humor. But DONT CHEAT ON THE TAKE HOME ESSASYS!!! Or he'll give you tests, he gives you all the info you need in class just take notes, you don't need the textbook!
This professor made this history class so interesting and I learned so much. The only thing is hes a little bit of a tough grader and his final is hard but if you have all the notes and study you will do fine. I would definitely take him again!!!!
You will learn something even if you go in not wanting to! He is hilarious and his lectures are fantastic. Definitely the best and most passionate professor I've ever had. Rest in peace little Pu Yi.
easy B hard A ended up going from a 96 to an 86 on the last day :-/ atleast he gives students their final grade before the semester ends
Probably the easiest history professor on campus but his class is not an easy A I did every thing I was suppose too and came to every class but still ended up with an 89 so Idk but still take him also hes a true comedian and a 20 year old kid at heart youll know what I mean when you take him he speaks like and has the mind of a teenager TAKE HIM!
Puyiiii he is just amazing take him!!!!!
This is the best prof. at mcc. He is hilarious and really cares about his students. He will make you write papers, and rewrite papers , and rewrite them again until they are perfect, but believe it or not you will love every second of it.
The most vital part of this class is to attend the lectures. The lecture is the only source for essays, and the final exam. There are extra credit opportunities also. One thing I noticed was that he knows all of his students by name, which is nice and refreshing. Don't skip details on essays even they seem small. If it is in your notes, include it.
I took him spring 2018 and he is awesome 99% of the reviews here are true also yes he is strict on attendance and due dates on essays but when I had him he postponed due dates for better grades and I missed 12 classes and still ended up with an 83 he also gave me 10 extra points on my final its like he wants everyone to get an A or atleast a B!!
Love him! Best prof on campus. Attendance class, raise your hand and sit back an learn. Take home essays are great but are a lot of work. Definitely recommend
I dont understand how people are saying he is a tough grader, for the essays he gives you all the notes and all you need to do in your essays is rewrite all the notes in sentence form and you get an a. Only thing that may be difficult is the final the rest of the semester is no tests just essays which he gives the info for. I had him for His131 to
Incredible Professor. If History is the least satisfying thing you can possibly think of he'll show you otherwise, He is passionate about what he does, he holds high standards for your work and rightfully so he goes over everything that you need to know in "MASSIVE" DEPTH. If you fail his class it is completely because of your own laziness.
He is so passionate about history and loves his job. You should definitely take his class. His assignments are not hard at all to complete, but just make sure you don't take them for granted. He is also a bit off-the-wall personality-wise, but that just adds to the fun.
If you know how to take notes, translate them into an essay, then no big deal. Easy A. However, you must show to every class, if not, shame on you. He does not expect the minimum from his students, he wants the MAX!
Prof. Constantino is honestly the best teacher I've ever had. He keeps class interesting with his humor, and this will cause you to look forward to the lecture. He's also a very kind person, and is a fair grader. The only grades other than the final are essays, which will be easy as long as you write down everything he tells you to during class.
Great Professor!!! Makes history come to life in the classroom. Loves to teach and is the best teacher at MCC. Participation and attendance are mandatory. Lots of notes but you will have fun learning with this professor. Take him you won't regret it!!
He truly cares about his students and loves history . A lot of reviews say he doesnt let you miss class but that is false. He states you can miss 4 classes. The only down fall is you miss his lectures. You do have to write very long essays (which he seems irresponsible grading ) . Participate and you dont have to worry about your grade.
Loved this class! Interesting lectures, and a lot of notes. Best class I have had at mcc so far. Highly recommend !
Professor Constantino is hands down the best history professor on campus. No textbook at all, you take notes as he speaks. He lectures in a way that all the information sticks. He assigns several take home essays throughout the semester, no midterm and the final is fill in the blank (with word bank). I am definitely taking him for HIS132!
I took 3 or 4 of his classes got As on all of them. I really learned a lot and hes an amazing prof. He literally gives you everything you need for the papers and exams. He gives you many opportunities to ask questions or to repeat things. DO NOT use your phone, if you need to step outside. You literally have to TRY in order to fail his classes.
Best professor, you won't regret it. Thank me later.
Best MCC prof! I took him for World History 1 and 2. Class is an absolute pleasure to attend and always interesting and thrilling. TAKE GOOD NOTES AND WRITE DOWN EVERYTHING HE TELLS YOU. Easy A and you learn things you will remember for years afterwards about history.
He's a really nice guy and there's no textbook, homework or exams just take home essays based on the notes he gives in class. If you're the type that does best by listening than this class is for you but his screaming, jumping and running didn't help me learn.
Is it seriously difficult to attend class people? Easy A, show up, take notes and type them into essays. Yes he has a very unique teaching style but if you pay attention and actually think about what he has you write you'll learn. He can come across as a crazy fanatic but one on one he's a great guy. Stop being snowflakes and take a free A
A very passionate, dedicated, and smart professor. His class was the only class I actually looked forward to, history wasn't my favorite subject but his teaching style changed that. Doesn't give lots of work but he has a high expectation of you when he does give work(write every single note) I wish I can take his class again but it gets full fast!
Professor Constantino is one of the best professors at MCC, sadly his class section got canceled which forced me to drop History as the History department changed the professor. Class is mainly notes, take-home essays, and a Final. He is a really energetic and one of a kind professor. Take him you won't ever fail! I will be taking him for Fall 2020
he is one of those professors that you will never forget. his very unique way of teaching makes his classes fun, and enjoyable. he is extremely passionate. he jumps, screams, moves up and down the classroom the whole time and this makes it enjoyable. take notes. write exactly what he says. he is an easy A!!!!!!
Professor Constantino is the best Prof, class consists of exams, assignments, and discussions. He pre-records his lectures so that we can learn the materials well. Highly recommend him 10/10
Probably the best professor Ive ever had. 2+ years later and I still remember his class and the things hes taught like it was yesterday. Super nice, hilarious, and understanding guy. Unique way of keeping you awake during class. Show up, take verbatim notes, copy notes verbatim into take-home essays, easy A. Take him, you wont regret it.
I am currently taking Professor Constantino and his teaching style is simply phenomenal. He sends us lecture videos and extra credit assignments to boast our grades, his exams are fill in the blanks and it is straight from notes. When he is lecturing, he tells it like a story and that is something he is really good at,Take him you won't regret it.
Doesn't grade your paper on time or return it too you unless your his favorite and doesn't let you miss class either
Lowers your grade from an A to a B- if you miss class even if you're sick
Best professor, took him for both histories. His teaching style is amazing. He wants you to learn the material, not memorize it. His "exams" are based off of your notes. Literally word for word, so theres no reason why you should get lower than an A. some assignments every few weeks but nothing too crazy, he extends it so you have a week to do it.
Constantino is amazing! Take him you won't regret it!!!!!!!! Easy A!
Professor Constantino is one of my favorites, the way he teaches it is as if he is telling stories. Exams are literally from the notes and they are super easy including his assignments which are fun and exciting as we get to watch different movies. Take him you won't regret it!!!!
Professor John Constantino is a really funny and nice guy. He do not use the textbook at all. The class was online but the professor does not believe in zoom meeting so he shoots his video and uploads on canvas for students also his test and quizzes are so easy. Also, he made the test and quizzes by himself so you won't find the questions outside.
I had Professor Constantino for the Fall2020 sem which was conducted all online. While there were a few hiccups with uploading content for tests (which was the main thing we were graded on) it was an overall smooth semester. He's such an amazing prof, you can really tell he loves teaching and his passion for the subject is infectious. Def recommend
This professor i have to say was the best professor this semester. He know what he is doing. His notes and way of teaching is very enticing. i recommend everyone to take him. You will not regret it i promise. Just have to take notes and the exam will come directly from there. Funny guy and an amazing soul.
John Constantino is an amazing professor! If you dedicatedly take some time and work on the stuff he gives, you will get an A!!! Take him!!
Straight A professor. All he does is, uploads lecture videos, wants you to watch them and take notes. 2 exams, and 3 assignments (in which he will give you full credit)Wants you to learn. xams are word banks with options given and everything is from notes. You'll even pass without studying. One of those professors you will remember for a lifetime.
Awesome guy who will help you with anything, he made me change my major to history major as he makes it so easy and interesting to understand.
Ehh he was ok Ive had better Ive had worse I guess but I mean remote learning kinda sucks as it is?
Not a nice professor I missed an exam last semester and he didnt give me a make up even though I was sick and had a doctors note like wow ok.
Bad professor lazy unresponsive and doesnt effectively teach maybe its just zoom or remote learning
This guy is an amazing professor. He wants you to go to class and is actually the type that makes you want to go and enjoy this class. His lectures are awesome and he gives you some hindsight of what a university is like compared to college itself
Prof. Constantino is the most amazing teacher I've had in my entire life. Never once have I had someone care so much and be so passionate about what they were doing. He makes sure that you learn and will answer any questions you will have. He can be a little slow to answer emails but that's the only slight issue. He makes class fun and engaging!
I have never enjoyed a class more in my 14 years of being in school. This professor is naturally funny and you actually learn and want to learn in this class. I missed a few homeworks s because I was lazy but realistically you can finish this class with a 100 no doubt. If you fail this class there is something wrong with you. Take this class
Professor Constantino is passionate about teaching history he makes sitting in class bearable with his interesting lectures and ties life lessons into his lectures. He is always making sure that students are prepared for exams and essays that he assigns and he is always willing to help if he sees you are putting in the effort to pass his class.
You can tell he cares about teaching and will help you understand the material more whether you want the help or not. He also tries to make every class very exciting as well as give homework that helps show you paid attention instead of assignments that other teachers assign so that they don't have to teach. 100% recommend.
Anyone who leaves a bad rate for professor constantino seriously just has personal problems. He was my favorite professor of the semester and truly cares about his students. He wants to see everyone learn and do well. If you show up to class its hard to fail. He makes his lectures enjoyable and genuinely puts effort in to keep everyone focused.
He loves what he does and you can tell his tests are all based fully on his lectures, he provides the textbook imagines when its part of the work so dont buy the textbook i got 100 on all his tests so just make sure to do the lectures but he does not accept any late work at all the tests are fill in the blank
Doesnt let you miss class and lowers your grade 10-15 points if you do
Professor Constantino is fantastic. He is clear about what is expected. Attendance is mandatory, you need to take notes for the take-home essays. He does NOT give any exams (except for the final) or readings. Very clear about what to write down. Genuinely cares about teaching, office hours are open. Don't email. If you fail, that's really on you.
I took his class this spring and it was an online course. He gave us lectures to watch, they were honestly interesting, easy to follow, and I learned something. As long as you watch the lectures and take notes you'll pass.
Prof. Constantino is a great teacher. He understands what he teaches very well and is able to provide information in easy to understand manner. Easy format test and quizzes and HW is average to easy for college level.
Professor Constantino makes lectures fun and easy. He emphasizes what you need to know and instead of exams assigns take home essays that are incredibly easy as long as you were in class for the notes- no textbook or outside source needed, just notes. Despite the angry character he puts on he cares and will work with you.
Fascinating video lectures.
I had him twice once online and once in person. As long as you pay attention in his class you will be fine. He is very energic and you will laugh. He cares about what he is teaching and is passionate about it.
Watch the lectures and take notes, promise you'll be entertained and learn something. He's very understanding and a very sweet man. Takes his time to make sure he's doing what's best for his students. You can tell he is passionate about his job and he makes class fun.
You wont ever take a better professor. Trans assessable, though difficult to reach through email in the beginning of the year. He is the most caring, funny professor I've ever took. makes lectures interesting, and cares so much for mental health. communication is key. show a little interest and he will give back tenfold. he wants students to learn.
I absolutely loved professor constantino. He is the best professor Ive had so far. You will learn so much from him. He is very clear about what you have to write down for notes and you have to write around four essays in the semester and other essays are optional for extra credit. Definitely take him you wont regret it.
Professor Constantino is one of those rare professors that will have you looking forward to each class. He keeps every single student engaged throughout the whole lecture and makes it fun. His teaching style is unorthodox and may be perceived as offensive,but one thing for sure he truly is passionate and cares about his students' knowledge&success.
Took HIS131 & HIS132. Great lectures, makes history entertaining if it's not an interest of yours. Very little reading, which is a nice change of pace. Easy tests and homework for the most part. Excellent course and professor.
Literally the BEST professor I have ever had here at middlesex. He is so funny, and caring and makes you enjoy class so much. I actually learned so much history due to his teaching styles. You will not regret taking him, he is so easy to talk to!!
Took during summer. Very few assignments, doesn't use the textbook. Prerecorded lecture videos that are very entertaining. Tests are easy. Assignments are easy. Awful at responding to emails, though. If you email him, don't expect a response for at least several days. I emailed him at the end of the semester, and he really just never responded.
He's literally the best professor. He keeps you engaged, making you participate and keeping you interested in what he's saying. He's extremely eccentric. Only thing about him is that it's all essays for assignments. Make sure you're taking notes or your essay will get a bad grade since he wants all his notes in the essays.
Do not expect a typical Ben Stein Professor from this man. He is the most entertaining and passionate man in the classroom. Essays SOUND like a lot however if you follow your notes word for word you will pass without a doubt. There is no text book or outside sources the notes are all you need.
If you get the chance to take him then do so. The way he teaches is fun and keeps everyone engaged, I felt like I was actually learning because of him. He genuinely cares about you and just wants you to do well. So do your work and don't miss class because it's easy to fall behind and fail if you do.
The most fun and energetic professor teaching right now, you will not regret taking him
this is one of the few professors that actually CARES for the students. he clearly wants everyone to ace his class and he makes sure the lectures are entertaining. he is funny and the only work you need to do is submit essays that as long as you have notes you will ace with no sweat. take him!
Gives unfair grades and lectures sounded like nonsense
Great History professor, never met anyone like him. His class is great and you'll only have to do 4 essays that are basically just your notes, formality doesn't really matter. As long as you attend lectures, take notes, and don't use AI, you're pretty much set for a good grade. If you can't write an essay without AI, don't take the class.
chill prof
This professor is extremely passionate about how he teaches and always stays after class to help anyone who missed anything or has any questions. I took him for both World History 1 and 2. His lectures are very engaging and the only assignments he gives are essays, but the essays are just the notices in paragraph form. I would 100% recommend him!
His lectures were the only light for the semester. The best way to describe professor is that he is goated. He gave clear assignments and made funny lectures. I wish there were more professors like him. THANK YOU FOR BEING SO CHILL.
great professor all around!
The lectures are engaging, and the professor genuinely cares about student success. Essays are the main assignments, but Unstuckstudy can be a helpful study tool alongside the textbook.
He is a good teacher, the classes are easy, you just have to watch the lectures. There are exams at the end of each unit, they are a bit difficult but if you keep up your grades from the beginning it won't affect you.
He is great professor
First off, I want to clarify and say that I enjoyed this class and learned a lot. I also wouldn't hesitate to take his class again! Attendance is very important Essays are due on material covered in class and in order to full grasp the material you need to be there. Take the class you won't regret it. He also wants to see you succeed WRITE IT DOWN!
I loved his class so much. The class is very lecture-heavy and attendance is very mandatory. He made the lessons very engaging and memorable and it was probably the most fun class I've ever taken. Really the only assignments are essays. Though not often, he does assign a couple essays at a time which can get stressful, but the rubric is very clear.
Constantino was the best lecturer I've had at MC. He might come off as intense at first, but his style of teaching is extremely deliberate; he wants his lectures to feel like a story. They're genuinely riveting. Sometimes he'd leave the class on a cliff hanger that legitimately gave me goosebumps. Genuinely the most entertaining history class.
He was one of my favorite teachers at Middlesex College. He's not a fan of technology so bring your attention, a notebook, and a pencil. He genuinely cares about his students and their success, but he's a bit sassy. I will say, I've never paid more attention or cared about history until his class. I wish he could teach all my classes.
I took this class online, and the expectations were always clear and manageable. The professor posted video lectures along with assignments, and the exams were fill-in-the-blank with all the answers covered in the lectures. He's an awesome professor who is funny, passionate, and clearly cares about his students. Highly recommend!
Took him for world history 1 and 2 in the summer. Online course. Only one assignment every 1-2 weeks. And they usually only took a few minutes. He uploads lecture videos and they're actually really engaging. Would've loved to take his class irl, he seems like such a nice guy. No essays, very easy grader. Extra credit is 20 points on ur lowest exam.
I've taken world history 1 and 2 online with him and I absolutely love it. He's so funny and entertaining. The class is mostly pre recorded lecture videos you watch and take notes from, and then the exams are based on those notes, plus a few assignments. There are a lot of videos to get through, but other than that it's not hard at all & he's nice!
This guy was insane in the nicest way possible. His lectures were thorough and engaging. He was very understanding and easy to talk to.
