Ms. Rumbley's real cool. You better be ready for her humor, she comes up with some crazy stuff. Tests/work - A Breeze - she practically gives the answers away. Don't miss out, take her class. EASY A!!!!
Awesome teacher. She keeps you interested by explaining things in a very modern day approach. Take her class.
don't miss out on her class. An easy A if you do the little work she gives
she's very cool, it's impossible to fail her class unless you're a retard. she's funny and helpful. her tests are relatively easy.
Great teacher and a great class.
Professor Rumbley is the best humanities teacher I have ever encountered. She really knows here stuff when she talks about it. The learning is awesome, as she created images in my mind with everything she talks about, keeping me on my toes. A+ teacher!
Professor Rumbley is definitely one of the coolest professors I've had. She is absolutely hilarious, and at the same time very knowledgeable. Even if you're not interested in Humanities, take her class just for the laughs!
best teacher, understanding, almost guaranteed A+
Best teacher I've ever had. She is very knowledgeable about the subject matter, follows the syllabus, is very fair with assignments, and is respectful to the students. I just love her.
Excellent teacher. You know whats expected and the tests are straightforward.
makes it interesting and keeps one entertained
The easiest teacher I have ever had at Valencia. She tells you everything you need to study for the tests. You would have to be a complete moron to fail her class and even then it would be hard to fail. This class was the easiest A I ever made.
love her! she's a ****ed older lady. keeps you laughing and is very easy. easy projects and easy paper. tests impossible to fail
Fun and easy teacher. Can be unclear at some times as to what is required per assignment.
Great class!! Karen is very pationate about what she teaches and makes the class very interesting. Tests are very easy and lets you know what is on them. Class projects were a piece of cake. She is a little explicit sometimes but gives the class a little flavor. Fun and informative class. Take her!!
I took Rumbley based on others comments and recommendations. I say it was worth it. She made a boring subject fun to learn about. There isn't alot of work. She gives study guides, and the projects are effortless. She is a bit umm...off the wall, but that's the fun part. I would recommend her.
Professor Rumbley is a strange model in some ways, but overall her class was good. She knows her subject well. I would take her again. She gives excellent study guides for tests--if you do the study guides and learn the material, you'll do fine.
I'll always remember the comments about statues like "ooh, look at that but" and if the queen was a ****, you'll learn that, too. She's awsome man, easy A or B, if not a comeplete dumb ass. But if you are a dumb ass you will still get a B or C. Take this teacher or suffer with some dumb ass.
Very easy class - if you don't get an A you might as well end up cleaning bathrooms for the rest of your life.
Awesome teacher...as stated, makes a boring subject most interesting, especially with her great sense of humor. Great study guides and tests. Definitely would recommend!
SHE IS THE BOOOOMMMMMBBBB.....SHE'S THE BEST TEACHER I'VE EVER TAKEN. SHE'S WILD, FUN, CRAZY, AND BOLD. I WOULD TAKE THAT CLASS THREE TIMES IN A ROW...HOWEVER, I GOT AN "A" THOUGH. THIS IS THE CLASS TO TAKE FOR AN EASY "A"
easy teacher, just do your study guides and you'll do fine. I'm currently taking her and so far its been real easy. She is crazy and fun. Would recommend her.
Very clear what's going to be on the exams. If she gives you a choice between writing a paper and doing an art project, do the art project because she loves those and grades easy. She does not like to read papers,so she grades them very hard. EXCELLENT PROF, a guaranteed A+.Very clear.LOVED HER CLAS
Easiest and funnest class I've taken. Took her twice. Final exams were art projects. To fulfill the Gordon Rule requirement she has you make study guides. Only one writing assignment and she counts the rough draft toward # of words.
Excellent teacher. Took her for two courses in humanities. Funny, exciting. My favorite teacher at VCC. I definitely recommend that you take her. You wont regret it.
I think that professor rumbley is more than fair with every student. she has to put up with a lot of lateness, bickering, poor excuses, above the regular excuses...and she still is very patient, kind, more than fair, and just a good teacher. I love what she teaches; she is always prepared, and loves what she does...it shows, too!
I am going for my 3rd class with the prof. She is the best...and makes learning fun! Easy work, easy tests, and interesting lectures. I can't say enough about her. Love the blue eyes, too.
easiest humanity teacher ive ever have!!only one paper entire course! everybody can get an A in this class!! she is awsome!
I learned more in this class than in my last 3 humanities classes combined, and with the least amount of effort on my part. Ms. Rumbley is interesting and humorous in her lectures, grades extremely fair, and breaks up the gorden rule requirement in several 200 word (easy) papers and only one 750 word paper based on any event you attend.
The best teacher in Valencia. I learnt a LOT and feel educated. A+ guaranteed. Class is not applicable to you if you want to sleep and still want an A+.
take her take her! she is awsome! I should have taken her on both gorden rule Humanity if I knew her earlier!! dont miss this awsome class!!!definitely one of the best class ever!
oh Baby! cant go wrong.. keeps u with an open mind throughout the course!.. If ur sensitive to anything, go take classes with a bore.. otherwise, dive into this class and have a gr8 time plus learn stuff too! Seriously!
YO THIS LADY IS OFF THE CHAIN SHE'LL HAVE U LAUGHIN ABOUT HOW SHE EXPLAINS THINGS AND PEOPLE IN THE LECTURES THE TEST WERE MAD EASY AND SHE TELLS U EVERYTHING ON THE TEST. IF U FAIL THIS YOURE AN IDIOT. ASK HER ABOUT THE KID THAT SANG THE SAPHO SONG... ANYWAYS... SHE IS THE BEST I RECOMEND HER TO EVERYONE THATS LOOKIN FOR AN EASY A.
This is an easy A . Too bad its not a gordon. There were 4 tests and all you do is match terms. 1 project but its easy too. If you're thinking about going full time, take this. Shes funny as hell. You learn alot in her lectures. The only way u wont pass is by not showin up.
Raphael was a womanizer, Donnatello was flamboiantly gay, Michaelagelo was ambiguously gay, and Rembrahnt was the most boring painter in renaissance. Whoops , your not supposed to know that but when you take Miss Rumbley's class you will. So if you can't stand humor get out out her class. LOL ;)
She is very easy going and fun.
I LOVED her so much the first time that I took her for 2 courses. A monkey could pass her class, it's that easy. Not much work. Her lectures are fun and if you listen to anything she says you will pass the test. She also likes to make patterns with the scantron (ex. abcd,abcd...or aaaabbbbaaaa, SERIOUSLY.)
YO THIS LADY WAS CRAZY!! SOMEHOW EVERYTHING SHE TALKS ABOUT IS BEING RELATED TO SEX! SHES MADD COOL THE WORK IS EASY ALL SHE GIVES YOU IS A STUDY GUIDE TO DO FOR SOME WEEKS AND 1 PAPER. I ABSOLUTELY LOVE HER!! I AM GOIN TO BE TAKIN HER NEXT SEMESTER!!!
I love her. She makes class fun!! I'm going to take her again even thus I don't need another humanities class but for electives. Super ez. Take notes and you will pass with a A+
She is awesome. Easy class and actually very interesting. Projects are easy and journal entries are short.
She only writes a few notes on the board but the whole test is made up of those notes. If you can't get an A or B in this class maybe college is not for you. The material is pretty interesting at times but the classes can get boring bc she likes to show A LOT of artwork slides. Really nice lady.
Prof. Rumbley is a great teacher. She explains things in way so you understand and on a younger person level. As long as you do the 10 Journal entries and art project, you will certainley get an A. Also she gives notes that are exactly(don't worry there like 5 sentences) on the test so that's one of the reasons to go to class & test are EASY
Very smart and helpful in the class. Makes class fun and not too boring. But she does relate a lot to sex, and I mean a lot, I am a guy and she had me blushing a couple of times, but it kind of breaks up the time in class and you laugh at it. If you come to class every day, study a little before the tests, and do the journal entry’s, and project, easy A.
She is awesome, funny, and makes the class interesting. I would have got an A if I would have just studied harder for the first test. Only 8 Journal entries each 150 words of more...you can just copy from the book. Only 3 tests which are made up from what she writes on the board, easy-short notes. 2 Notebook checks & fun project
Highly Recommend this teacher, very funny and makes the class entertaining. Class is easy just do your work and study for test.
I loved this class! She made the already interesting subject matter even more interesting. Very funny. I feel like I could win jeopardy! The notes in class are what are on the test, so attend. Do your journal entries, they're not hard, justtry not to miss big facts. The art project was awesome, we took the last test (4) & done about 2 weeks early!
i loved professor rumbley and her class! she makes history so interesting, i never knew how much i could enjoy it! easy A class if you study for tests (which are super easy) and do your journal entries. she wants you to get an A as bad as you do! she loves what she does and it's contaigous! i recommend her to anyone!
Great professor. Very interesting. enjoyed class
Honestly she is the best teacher I have had at Valencia. Take Greek with her. She is so funny and it will be a sure A+. Trust me on this one. Take her if you can!!
Took Greek and Roman with her, honestly she is one of the greatest at Valencia, easy A if you review your notes, i'm taking her again for 20th Century without a doubt!!!!besides how many teachers play p-diddy in class and dance along with it! You just have to love the lady.
Easy and nice, but boring. Talks about herself, her daughter and her grandchild too much. Tells bad jokes. Seems to dislike the 20th century art she's supposed to teach about. Got an A, but I won't take her again. Class was a waste of my time.
What can I say about miss Rumbley? Onky that she is the best teacher EVER! she makes getting an A so easy its almost child's play. She does talk a bit much and goes off in tangents all the time but she is such an interesting person its not a big deal. Awsome, Awsome, Awsome!!!
Fun class. Really easy if you keep up with the journal entries and attend class. She practically tells you everything that is going to be on the tests.
She's great!!!
AWESOME PROF. She teaches you EVERYTHING you would want to know. She has seen most of the items she discusses in the class and provides a personal touch which causes you to learn more and to appreciate the content of the course more. TAKE HER! She's the BEST. I loved the class and learning something new. It was great.
She is the best professor in my life!!! She explains everything from A to Z in a very interesting way. She uses a lot of pictures. A lot of fun with her!
She's great. Information is very clear. She teaches very well. tells excutley what u need to know. tests are very easy. lots of picutre to explain wht she's talking about, which is very helpful. very fun-easy easy going, and down to earth.
Spring 08. I really enjoyed this class.Came in with no knowledge on the Renaissance and baroque period and now I'm a walking encyclopedia.Gives all class requirements day one,NO classwork, only notes. Ten 250wrd take home journal entries on a preselected topic ,1 art project on pretty much anything in the time period. Take her you won't regret it.
OMG she was my favorite teacher to walk in for spring of 08 i loved her class all test are from notes on board no suprises!! gives extra credit your stupid if you fail! Would recommend for anyone she kept me entertained so much! I took her for greek and for fall semester i have taken the rest of my classes with her!!!
I had miss Rumbley for HUM 20th century and this semester for hum 2232 she was a great teacher made the material interesting the test are easy if you pay attention in class. I learn so much from her I wish i could have her as my teacher again
The syllabus was amazing. Her teaching style is pretty laid back and funny. But she needs to lay off the homosexual remarks. I know that some artist are gay and I guess she should mention it, but she takes it beyond what is necessary and almost makes fun of them. And dont even dream of getting an A on the final project, unless you are Monet.
I think I had same class as 4/21/08 & it was not hard to get an A for project..Just had to put time/effort out. As for Homosexuality mentioned, Dr. Rumbley did not insult anyone, & even mentioned some of her friends were of that preference. Just listen better, dude! She is just plain awesome. A walking book of knowledge.
take her if want to love coming to class, and a good grade!!! best teacher i have ever had @ valencia!!! shows movies that are funny too!!! study her notes and you will get an A but if you dont have an open mind or a sense of humor then dont take her, you are just wasting her time!!!!
This is one of those rare classes that are fun AND you learn a lot! I love her! She's hilarious and really teaches in a way where you remember things. If you're a prude then dont take her class bc she has a sense of humor. It's easy to pass w/ an A and she actually makes learning humanities FUN and memorable! Loved it. Take any of her classes!! :-)
Great professor. If you do what is required, it is an easy A. Makes Humanities interesting even if it is not your thing. Roman to Middle ages, I did not have a clue now I am much more informed. Taking 20th now. Keeps it simple. You do not have to read the book, but you will need i fo your journals.
Most interesting experience ever...she is a KEEPER!!
She was FANTASTIC! She taught in a way that made it fun AND interesting! I would take ANY of her classes! Great sense of humor and personality! Really knows her stuff!
WONDERFUL! Loved every second of her class! She made it so interesting and so much more than just history. She has amazing first hand experience with the places she teaches about! Doing the homework doens't feel like a chore and isn't all too hard! You can tell she has a passion for what she does and how she teaches!!! DEF take her!!!
AMAZING. It is a joy to go to her classes, truly. If you are offended easy or very senstitive, do not take her class. If you appreciate laughing and can take things lightly, GO AHEAD. I LOVE HER! She's down to earth and knowledgable. the class is SO fun, the discussions are interesting. it's just a great class with a good teacher and EASY!
This is my second class with her and i couldn't love her more! her teaching is amazing! Really loves her jobs. Tells you exactly what she's looking for in hw an test. I got an A in both classes couldn't be better her stories are hilarious and she loves her jobs. Says the stores just as they are says hoe,**** GREAT teacher!! Take her for everything
If you listen to her and follow her instructions this is a very easy A. You must do what she asks of you. I have taken two classes with her because I enjoyed her so much. I highly recommend her!
She is AWESOME!!her class is a blast because she is such an amazing teacher!! she gives you the study guide the first week of class and gives you a month to do it. she grades a little hard on them, wants def. directly from her notes that she provides for you everyday when you come into class. he test are so freakin easy just like the notes nd guid
Ms. Rumbley is soooooo funny! I loved this class. It's super easy and she is really cool! Just do the study guides and take notes in class and you are sure to get an easy A. She really knows her stuff, and she makes it really interesting to learn :) Take her- she's awesome!
she is a great professor likes to talk about sex alot. her lectures are boring.but its an easy A just do a good job on the study guide and you will pass
This Professor is so awsome! her class was stress free. she is so funny and her tests are extremly easy. If you wan't an easy "A" this is the class for you. I would reccomend her to anyone.
She is really funny, she jokes a lot and makes the class really interesting. I loved her classes. You should deff. get her.
Her lecture notes are detailed and useful when it is time to complete the study guides. The pictures she places on her overhead are a great supplement for her lectures. She drifts off subject too much, but she makes people laugh. She has been to all the places she teaches about, so she has first hand experiences to talk about. Great professor!
LISTEN...TAKE HER. IT'S EASY, FUN INTERESTING, AND I LOVE IT. SHE'S LETTING US OUT OF CLASS ALMOST A MONTH EARLY!! 9 JOURNAL ENTRIES, AND EASY EASY EASY EASY EXAMS. CAN I SAY EASY ANYMORE? I'D TAKE HER ALL SEMESTER IF I COULD. SHE'S REALLY COOL TOO
Would take again and again... really easy laid back teacher If teaching another class I would take her... took one of the online classes would have gotten a better grade if I tried harder... =-p
I love mythology so it should be no surprise that I enjoyed this class. It was straight forward but does require substantial reading. This prof is an easy grader. As long as you do your work by the deadline you will get an A. If you need a GR HUM course, or you're a creative writer who could benifit from understanding the formation of myth, take it
BEST PROF. EVER. She is super funny, and could make humanities interesting to a 2yr-old. The tests are exactly the same as the study groups. I wish I had to take other humanities just to take her again. Do yourself a favor and TAKE HER
OH. MY. GAAAD!!! I love this woman. She's the best professor I've ever had. I took her for Greek/Roman and 20th Century. Wow! Very creative and intelligent. Not to mention super rad! She makes everything fun and interesting. Plus, the assignments/tests are easy. TAKE HER!!! You won't regret it.
The best teacher I ever took. You would be stupid if u don't take her. I messed up and she still gave a second chance. Its a easy A just do her journals ON TIME. U will enjoy every moment in her class.
Her study guides must be DETAILED otherwise you won't pass the class. Exams are fairly easy if you study, they are multiple choice. She talks about sex a lot which is somewhat entertaining. Could've gotten better grade if I studied harder.
The best professor on campus PERIOD!!! If you need any advices from her from any subject..she will help you!! Gotta register early cuz hers classes fill up quickly!
Professor Rumbley is an outstanding professor!! She is very easy as long as you do the homework and pay attention to her lectures, it's an easy A. I even learned things about history I never learned before because I was bore with it. She's very entertaining.
AWESOME PROFESSOR! She is a real treat. I always enjoyed going to her class. I even took two of her classes over the last few semesters. She is extremely knowledgeable and worth the time.
She is great! So funny and makes everything interesting! No homework, 3 tests total (all matching) and easy chances for big extra credit! As long as you show up and listen its an easyyyy A!
All i have to say is.........TAKE HER!!!!!!!!!!! She is funny as all out doors. I promise you that you will pass. PERIOD.POINT.BLANK! She is great
AMAZING! i will be following her throughout my humanities courses, shes fun and layed back, very interesting, no homework, tests are very simple.
Funny lady. sometimes says nasty or naughty stuff. Knowns a lot. MULTIPLE CHOICE TEST just 3. JOURNAL ENTRIES almost each week with 250 words min, total 9. and she gives you the notes. EASY....
Funny lady. sometimes says nasty or naughty stuff. Knowns a lot. MULTIPLE CHOICE TEST just 3. JOURNAL ENTRIES almost each week with 225 words min, total 9. and she gives you the notes. EASY....
Easy tests but she is a harsh grader on the journal entries.. she if somewhat funny but most the time i felt as if she didnt know what the he** she was talking about. She is also very rude and will put you on the spot 4 anything
Rumbley is an awesome professor!!! She grades only by multiple choice vocabulary tests and attendence. Her lectures are always high energy and fun! I recommend rumbley if you can manage to get into her in-demand classes!!!
Humanities does not get any easier than this! She will have you laughing through the entire class, makes the subject interesting, gives easy tests, and you actually learn a lot!
Professor Rumbley's class is very easy, not easy as in boring but easy to pass. You learn a lot and the lectures are very interesting. However, she is a raunchy old woman who at times comes off as sexually frustrated...Making a lot of dirty comments...Its kinda funny but gets old. She is a very educated woman but is one who has to show you she kno
This professor makes the course enjoyable. I learned a lot both times I took her courses. HUM2250 and HUM greek and roman. I actually learned humanities!Go to class- you'll need the information for exams.
SHE WAS EASY. TALKS ABOUT SEX.. ALOT. THERE WAS ONLY TWO TEST AND A FINAL PRESENTATION. WEEKLY JOURNALS FROM THE TEXTBOOKS THAT TO ME WERE SOMETIMES UNCLEAR. BUT IT WAS EASY, SHE KNOW MOST OF US TAKE IT CAUSE WE NEED IT NOT CAUSE WE LOVE HUMANITIES. SO SHE MAKES IT ENJOYABLE. TAKE HER. I WILL AGAIN.
professor Karen is a very funny teacher....She is very helpfull because eventhough Humanities is all about reading...she makes it easy and fun that you will remember everything....I still have two more Humanities to take...Is for sure that I will take her again....I love the way she teaches....
Very inappropriate humor, but it's okay because she's a great prof. Easy class, only use the textbook for "journals" which are basically reading responses due every week. Tests are ten question fill in the blank. If you're attentive in class, you will pass with an A easily. I really don't know how anyone could get below a B.
Great teacher! I never had any interest in humanities, especially Hum Renaissance and Baroque, but I looked forward to attending class every week! She really makes the class interesting and you will actually retain the knowledge, not just memorize things! I hate going to any class, honestly, but she was great, you won't be disappointed! Very funny!
Well teacher. Her study guides are EXACTLY whats on the quizes for each chapter!.
ABSOLUTE BEST TEACHER I'VE EVER HAD! Her class is super easy too. She's hilarious and you WILL NOT forget what she teaches you. She's got dirt on all the artist's lives. She really makes class enjoyable. Buy the book, it's necessary for the homework. Definitely take her for any humanities. You won't regret it. She really cares about teaching.
Seriously, she makes this class so easy and interesting - you're foolish if you don't take it with her. Journal entries are simple, comprehensive study guide, interesting lectures.
Karen is extremely EASY! test consist of 10 questions that she really already gave u the answer to, takes about 5-10 to finish. Lets out early. Journals are easy and her lectures interesting. She said she grades hard for online students. This is the easiest "A" I ever received.
Couldn't remember the course number- it's Renaissance and Baroque though. She's extremely easy. However, if you have virgin you probably shouldn't take this class. Super funny, but only if you have that sense of humor. Some could say she's offensive, but I think she rocks. It makes it easier to remember names. Big on spelling but easy tests.
Professor Rumbley is crazy. She loves what she does and it shows. You don't really need the book because she puts notes on the board as well. Attendance is not mandatory but it best to go because she explains the subject sometimes even better than the book. I love her teaching method and I would defiantly recommend anyone to take her.
She is the best teacher I have ever had!!!!! Her classes are interesting, funny, and really, really easy!!!!!! Take her!!!
If you're looking for an easy and fun Humm Prof., take Ms.Karen Rumbley.I took her Late Roman and Medieval class for summer and enjoyed very much. She's super funny and really knows how to keep you interested in her lectures. No hw, no final, just quizzes. The quizzes are very easy, just study the SG she gives you and take notes during class.Easy A
Very Good Teacher. Took her for Human Renaissance. She is one of my favorite professors ever. She will say some things that will make you think, is she really a teacher? Lol. All you have to do is do the study guide and know how to spell the names perfect. Tests were easy if you took notes and studied. For humanities, she is the best
THE BEST PROFESSOR EVER!!! If you don get Mrs. Rumbley for Humanities don?t take it?easy A, very fun, and you actually learn. She works hard so you don?t have to? LOVE THIS LADY?
This course was the tizsit! If you do the study guides early and "read" & Re-read & highlight the answers you find in the book you can't fail this course! Study for your "A" , show up to class pay attention,take notes, & do the StudyGuide and get a B. I got an "A+" on S/G and (A)class. The Professor/ Wicked Cool,is form Philly,and knows her stuff!!
Great Teacher! Made the class fun but at the same time you learn alot. The essays were easy enough to test yourself without being too easy. If you take plenty of notes and pay attention theres no way you'll fail.
She is AMAZING! Makes everything she teaches come alive by describing the people and events with a modern spin. I would definitely recommend her to anyone. She does know her stuff, and she expects you to as well. Love her!!!
Go to her website for the assignments. She grades the essays a little bit hard for the work citings and grammar. You can go to writing center for helps. Her tests are straight forward and easy. The final will be a surprise ;)
She makes you memorize and spell the names right, spelling counted on her tests. The essays are troublesome, but overall, she is nice and easy. Just show up and do your work.
I cannot say enough about this woman. She is funny and lighthearted but still expects her students to learn the material. She brings a light attitude to a subject that people (not me) find boring. If you have an issue she is understanding and reasonable. 3 tests, no homework, and a few essays. I took her for all my HUM classes. Love her!!!
I cannot say enough about this woman.SHE IS THE BEST PROFESSOR EVER, She is funny and lighthearted but still expects her students to learn the material. She brings a light attitude to a subject that people (not me) find boring. AND YOU REALLY LEARN A LOT FROM HER CLASS.
Prof Rumbley is wonderful. Never liked humanities before. Made class interesting. All instructions are clear. Basically gives all the answers to test. Easy A to me, and you will be learning. Cant miss more than 3 days otherwise you will lose a letter grade.
I have taken all of her humanities classes, she is amazing! If you don't have a sense of humor don't bother but if you do and you are willing to put in the time for her classes you will do great. Tests are easy IF you attend class and take notes and all papers that are turned in are graded at college level writing as it is college. Amazing woman!!!
Grade is based off of study guides and tests. Your study guides are your gordon rule credit. They are incredibly easy and help you on your tests anyways. There is one project at the end which is extremely easy, you can even bake something to get an A on it. Overall, easy class, funny teacher and you won't regret taking her!
This teacher is fun and makes the subject interesting. She makes you laugh and really love the humanities. However, if you are against curse words avoid her class she uses them quite frequently. I took her for Intro to Humanities and am taking her again for 2 more classes in spring 2012.
She is amusing, but extremely unprofessional. She spends half of every class session complaining about the tenured faculty; it's clear she's very bitter that she doesn't have tenure. If she spent as much time on the material as she does digressing, we could have covered twice of what we actually did.
MY FAVORITE TEACHER AT VC !!!! AMAZING! Makes the class super fun and relaxed and I learned soooooo much every day!! I didnt want to miss a day of class. I loved going to class! Take her for all of your humanities she knows her stuff! She is passionate about her subject and teaching
Professor Rumbley is the best hummanity teacher ever!!! She is so cool. she is very easy. I definitely recommend taking her class. Just make sure you do the Study guides. Test questions come right from them. A++ teacher. LOVE HER!!!
Best professor I have ever had! Her lectures are interesting, she uses powerpoints and makes the class funny. Only two tests that are extremely easy if you pay attention and do the two study guides. Definately reccommend!!
she is an amazing professor. i took her 3 times and she made it so interesting i decided to make humanities my major. the class is easy and the tests are not bad if you study. plus she is hilarious.
Hilarious professor, and her class is as simple as it gets. Two study guides and two test which are incredibly easy, but still requires memorization. She loves what she teaches and it shows. You will need the book when doing study guides.
Easy class. Krumbly makes her lectures fun to listen to.
Already registered for her next semester
Interesting teacher. Highly recommended
Had her for 2 Humanity Classes. I love her. She is the best. Will do all possible to help her students succeed. Easy course if you pay attention and study. I got an "A" in both classes.Truely a CHILD OF GOD. She is the best person that Valencia could have ever hired.
Professor Rumbley is my favorite professor! She makes everything interesting so it really sticks in your mind. She provides good study guides and notes for the quiz. Must take for humanities!
Best Humanities Professor I have ever taken a class with. I had taken 20th Century with another professor before during a fall term and honestly did not learn anything at all. But with Rumbley I learned so much in just a matter of six weeks during the summer term. Easy A if you turn everything on time and pay attention in class.
This professor is great for any humanities course. I think she teaches every Humanities course. She makes the material SO easy to remember with witty jokes and stories. Her assignments take a bit of reading the textbook, but it's nothing too indepth. End of the course project, also. Easy A if you're not lazy.
Please do not take anyone else, sign up for Professor Rumbley! I am finishing up HUM 1020 & I love every second of it! She tells amazing stories to help you understand and remember the material. I do struggle in school but not in her class! Entertaining, take notes, 2 study guides, 2 tests(all from study guide), 1 project/ 1 min presentation. DONE!
Professor Rumbley is a good teacher and she's serious about her job. She loves what she's teaching and has the experience to go along with it. She gives excellent stores and keeps the class entertaining. She rambles a lot and wastes time though. Her grading system is very strict. Very hard to get an A. Majority of class got a B.
Loved her! She is so funny and makes class interesting. Study the review page you can get online inside and out. Test is 10 questions fill in the blank. Easy A just need to study for the test. Don't need the book she lets you put it on USB. You won't regret her!
She's the best humanities professor I've ever had. Do the homework she gives and don't miss out on class. If you do those simple 2 things, you'll get an A for sure! Specially do her exam reviews, those are actually the test! Exact same thing as her reviews! She also makes class fun and interesting, if you hate humanities, take it with Rumbley, she will make it fun and you won't want to miss out! Easy A!!!
one of the best professor at Valencia. She makes everything so interesting. You going to learn lots.
This lady is amazing. She is one of my favorite teachers. Shes a bit crude in humor but at least you remember the material lol. I considered majoring in Humanities because of her. She's funny, interesting, and gets the information across extremely clearly. She doesn't want her students to fail or hate HUM so she helps you through it all. I loved it
This class was so much fun! I love learning about history and whatnot and Rumbley did a great job helping us to remember with her wit! When she is doing her speeches to teach it can be a bit of a bore but when she puts her personality into it it helps so much! I would defiantly recommend her, seriously.
One of the funniest and interesting professors imo at Valencia. I've never met someone so hilarious. She makes the notoriously boring Humanities course very interesting because of the personality and flair she puts in her lectures. Only tip I have is DO NOT turn in your study guides in late. She seems to grade the late ones harder than ontime ones
SHE IS THE FUNNIEST TEACHER EVER!!! She is a very wise lady who has traveled to practically all the places the textbook says. She uses the pictures she took as background and she acts out the lessons. Humanities is definately NOT boring with her. DO THE STUDY GUIDES THO; they are a big portion of your grade. I definitely recommend her!!
She is probably the best HUM teacher on campus. Her lectures are very engaging, and she is very intelligent.
Professor Rumbley is the best HUM professor ever she gives great lectures, she will make you want to learn more, I want to take her again for extra credit SHE'S THE BEST!!! TAKE HE NOW!!!!
my 1st semester at Valencia and i took Into to humanities with pro Rumbley and it was an awesome class, super easy only 2 tests and 2 study guides to go with the tests. she tells you everything you need to know in class and she is very funny(she keeps u awake) her final is also super easy just a project. i will be taking her for another class!!
I honestly loved her class so much! It was very informational and she made the class so funny and always entertaining! You have to right notes down though but only 2 tests and they are matching and super easy and one presentation for your final! I loved her class so much and would definitely take her again!
Professor Rumbley was an amazing teacher. She made something I wasn't interested in into something I now take great interest in. She made her lectures entertaining in a way that college kids could grasp and recall later. I only wish she was teaching more classes. I have not been able to take her since I took her intro course. I wish She taught more
This Professor made her classes very interesting, she is super funny and her class itself is a breeze. She does not tolerate skipping class, however, she is all around a great teacher!
This Professor was the best ever!!!! Idk if she's still at Valencia but she was amazing.
took for intro during a summer course 4 days a week and always looked forward to her class. amazing real life experiences added to lectures. always has a hilarious side comment to make. no homework, all test were multiple choice and final was an art project. easiest A ever.
She is an awesome teacher. I learned so much from her lectures and have done pretty good on her tests. Her lectures makes you understand easily. One thing though, when you do her study guides, make sure you are VERY detailed and follow her grading criteria or else she will take lots of points off. Other than that she's great! I recommend her!
Professor Rumbley is a very nice lady, however she is unclear with her expectations and is inconsistent. I was recieving full credit on all of her write ups, A 100% on her paper, and over a full grade on her final project, A's and B's on her exams and was sure I earned the A, however she gave me a B. She doesn't post anything to blackboard.
Karen Rumbley is an amazing professor. You know how some older adults try to act cool or hip, but in all reality are lame. Professor Rumpley (nickname not misspelled) is the total opposite of that. She can really relate to students and as long as you pay attention and do you study guides, you will get and A+ and be laughing your butt off in class.
Took her for all of my humanities. She's just awesome. Definitely a professor I will remember.
She gives WAY too much work that isn't needed. She grades too hard. i dont think anyone for any class should take her
she grades so hard and if you miss one test she takes off 100 points from you final exam. idk what everyone was talking about when they said she was a great funny teacher because i didn't laugh once. DON'T TAKE HER lol
I took this professor online and she is great. He setup is very clear and you already know when things are due since the beginning of the semester. If you do not want to spend money on the book you don't have to she provides a lot of material online. The tests are not easy but not too hard either. Focus a lot on discussions. Amazing professor.
I highly advise you to not take this class! By far the worst
Good teacher and easy class, although she can be a pain at times. Some of the smart remarks she made were unnecessary, and if there is an error on her part its automatically your fault. The class and curriculum is easy, just the way she comes off isn't exactly the best.
The test reviews were pointless, the questions on the test were not even on the review!The tests were very hard. Studied my butt off & took notes (online course) & still missed several questions. This class totally wrecked my G.P.A.!!! I recommend taking from a different professor!
Not a friendly lady at all. Very critical of my assignments. She finds anything possible to mark down my assignments. Very discouraging to actually learn and thrive in this course.
When I thought I scraped the bottom of the barrel, I then took this professor. Save yourself the time and hassle. Very unfair when it comes to grading. I'd even go as far as saying degrading with her feedback. Her rating on this website is misleading. I took her believing she was a good professor, ended up being the worst I've ever had by far.
Professor Rumbley was one of the best professor's I ever had. She's very considerate, especially if you are late in handing things in. All I needed to do was contact her and she really listens. My grandmom passed away and we had to travel, so I lost some time. Her work isn't too hard. She tells us to follow all directions, thats it.
Very rude when it comes to feedback. Easy class, but very crappy teacher.
She didn't assign an excessive amount of assignments and cared for her students. I didn't think I could get my grade up from a B+ to A- but I gave it my all for the final project and she gave me the best grade she could to get me up to an A. Would take again.
Tough grader
A lot of reading from the textbook. You cannot get around reading the textbook because the test she has revolve around the textbook. There was also only one essay. The assignments and discussions were not that hard as long as you read the textbook.
Prof Rumbley is a total gem The class is interesting and SUPER EASY Not a lot of work; it consists of discussion quizzes and a final fun project; she's very caring and there to help, do yourself a favor and TAKE HER! The bad reviews about her being tough grader is probably bc they didn't do their work I finished with 100 do the work you'll pass
Personally, I consider that Professor Rumbley was excellent, when I had any questions and I sent her an email, she responded in a favorable time and with detailed explanations. There is only one essay in the whole semester, and each week a discussion, but they are easy.
Professor Rumbley was a really good teacher and her class was pretty fun. I took it online so I didn't have much contact with the professor but she gave feedback on almost every assignment and let me resubmit if I missed something. An assignment and a quiz each week and like 2 essays. The final is creating a wanted poster which was really fun.
