Such a sweet woman and so passionate about history! She makes everything easy to understand, explains thoroughly and is very polite and funny and easy to talk to! This was my favorite class this semester, it's easy to pay attention because we learn about interesting things. As long as you read the chapters in book you will do well on tests. A+

Mrs. Hruby was honestly the best teacher I've ever taken at Moraine. She's super nice, but definitely not a push over so don't try cheating. You won't even need to cheat though because her lectures aren't boring. I wasn't even interested in HUM until I took her. Also, her powerpoints aren't on blackboard so do yourself a favor a show up to class.

I took HUM101 online and it is almost completely self guided. (Not a bad thing, just be prepared to make your own deadlines). She gives 1 due date for everything in each unit. She is quick to reply to emails and is very helpful with office hours. If you have to take HUM101, you want to take it with her.

I absolutely loved this class!!! I didn't know what to think at first but ended up being my favorite this whole semester. Hruby is really good and interesting and genuinely likes what she does. I have had so many teachers who don't care but shr really does. the reading is kind of hard sometimes but it's really not bad. Hands down favorite class.

I literally can't say enough good things about this teacher. She is kind and passionate about her teaching, She met with me literally every single week to go over my reading homework, and she was patient when I had so many questions. Don't miss the chance to take an in person class with her- you will never regret it. So wish she was teaching 102!

She cares about the students and treat them with kindness, extremely knowledgeable and skilled teacher. Majority of students can learn in her technique. She uses sense of humor to make classes enjoyable for the students. 3 open-note tests, 3 closed-note tests, and a good amount of extra credit. Undoubtedly Prof. Hruby is the greatest of all time.

Mrs. Hruby was one of the best teachers I've had. She was so nice and caring plus she had a genuine interest in your learning. The homework is not hard as long as you do the readings and listen to the lecture, she also has good stories to tell as well. If you need to take a Hum101 I'd definitely take Mrs. Hruby. She helped me alot in the semester.

I took Mrs. Hruby my first semester of college and she was amazing! She gives funny and interesting lectures that won't bore you. During lectures she will show movie clips and tell you funny stories. She provides you with notes, that you will take down during class. Mrs. Hruby is easily my favorite teacher at Moraine Valley so far.

This was a very informative class. I suggest taking her 16-week course because the textbooks+videos are lengthy. Taking the 3-week course can be time consuming. The quizzes and tests are timed but are open book. She's very kind and responds to emails quick during weekdays. Worth taking since you learn a lot and makes you really think about society.

This professor makes it very hard to get an A. Her grades are only determined by taking tests and one writing reflection. There is NO way to get extra credit.
