a very nice professor, the class is interesting but not my thing, she is helpful and not boring, if you are an anthro major she's good

may be boring at times bc she always reads from her notes, but the material is a solid presentation of the basic issues in cultural anthropology and it isnt presented as a social studies lesson. easy tests if you take dictation notes and skim books.

The tests are straight out from the notes, the ethnographies are boring, but you don't really need to read them; as long as you pay attention in class you'll be fine. Exams are cumulative.

Very interesting class and she is a very nice teacher. Knows how to teach and as long ass you take notes u will so great in her class because the tests are not hard at all

Great teacher, knows her stuff and the material is alot but very interesting. I recommend u take her the only problem is u actually have to show up to class if not, have someones notes. The tests are extremely easy only based on her notes and i dont agree with everyone else. TAKE HER!!!

her class is not easy, you should write notes clean and neat. I suggest take her class and you will see it will be easy to understand and go well on your tests. classes so interesting, i enjoyed being there and I suggest to EVERYONE to take it. she's ready to help U with questions. Just take it.

I hated her class. It was BORING. She thinks that she, and all the authors in those stupid books she makes us read, actually know what they're talking about. The class was a torture. But it wasn't difficult. Grade received: A. Class is still stupid though.

alot of work! She was nice, very knowledgeable about the texts but, hard to follow at times. Felt more like literary analysis than anthro. This is a good class for those interested in theory/ lit/anthro/ethnography. If your interested in applied anthro don't take this class.

One of the easiest classes ive ever taken. She s very nice and very very helpful, she takes extra time to make sure u get everything and she really cares about all her students. The readings were extremely interesting and i would definately recommend her.

great class

Great professor. Intelligent, has a stong grasp on the subject matter and gives insightful readings. Heavy workload, theory oriented. If you dislike theory...DON'T TAKE THE CLASS...it's just that simple.

Can be boring at times. Not that bad. You have to do the readings tho. Req. 3 response papers, and the final was two 5 page essays. Ugh..!!!

Very interesting class. If you enjoy learning about cultures around the world this class is for you, especially if you enjoy learning about similarities between cultures in the world. Im from north Greece and that book on the Bedouins made me feel as if I was reading about my moms village. Do the reading and you'll do fine very easy.

Excellent professor and anthropologist. I've heard people don't like her in the introductory course, which is possible, since 101 is not the most stimulating class to teach. I've had her for upper level courses and I've found the fieldwork experience she brings to class as well as the great readings she selects to be extremely useful and interestin

Good teacher, is very clear but reading ethnography can be boring unless you are interested in area. You learn much in this class though, if you pay attention.

Well, clearly most of the reviewers on here are really lazy and unfamiliar with what it takes to be successful in college. Professor Limbert's classes are definitely demanding, perhaps the most demanding in the department, but she is an amazing professor and you will learn more in her classes than in most of your others.

Prof Limbert may be a bit demanding in terms of what she expects to be read for each class, but she is actually a really nice and understanding professor. She invites discussion and questions. She does not take attendance, but it doesn't hurt to show up and participate. I would definitely recommend to someone willing to put in some effort.

One of the best professors I've had Queens. Insanely knowledgeable about the Middle East, especially the Gulf region. Demanding in terms of reading, but if you do the work, come to class, and participate (novel idea!) you will learn a lot. I value my slightly lower grade in this class more than most of my A's.

She's really nice and will explain things to you if you ask. Attendance isn't mandatory and you don't need to do the readings, you'll still do fine if you study for the exams. She is kind of boring though.

She's very organized, everything you need to know is in the vocabulary. Participation is important to her

I thought she was an amazing professor. She's very passionate about her field of anthropology and knows what she's teaching. If you're interested in culture at all I think you'll find her class very interesting and not boring. Honestly my favorite class last semester.

if you try hard, this is a great class to take. 2 midterms and 1 final, no papers, no quizzes. If you want an easy A, this isnt the best class to take. She loves what she does and she is an interesting teacher, but her lectures can get somewhat boring.

Great teacher.

I took this class two semesters ago, and it was really really boring. The subject was interesting, but the class was tough. There are 3 exams for this class, and they each contain 50 MC questions. However, the readings were very long, and can get intimidating once you go to class and discuss them. If you want to learn something, take her!

I've taken two classes with this professor while completing my degree, and I will say that I have read more in her classes than all other classes in both history and antrho combined. That said, the reading isn't just busy-work. Her lectures and courses are very specifically crafted to build on the previous work done, and PARTICIPATION MATTERS!

Great teacher, as long as you participate in class and skim the readings you will do great. tests are completly based on wha you do in class but really simple easy multiple choice. only 3 tests throughout the semester and a lot of readings. Overall shes very fair and i would take her again.

Anth 212 was a really interesting class. Even though there is a lot of reading and reflection papers it helps to boost your grades. Participation really matters.

Good professor, although it may get a kind of boring. 2 midterms and a final based on both midterms. You have to pay attention and take notes or else you won't pass. I didn't really read the textbook, just studied the notes she gave and did well on the first exam and on the final. Would recommend taking it.

There were multiple books we had to buy for her. She wanted physical copies which made my wallet cry a bit, but most of them were very interesting. Besides reading a lot, her lectures dive deep into many different concepts, pretty interesting if you're into culture. Overall, very sweet- take her, unless you absolutely despise reading.

Participate in lectures. You'll love her and she'll love you. Thumbs up.

I think that her class is okay and but it kinda boring!

She's passionate about her subject and gives interesting material to read. Lecture can get boring if there's a boring topic but it's usually good. The exam and quiz questions are straightforward, basically just test for reading comprehension. Read the material and attend lecture and you'll get an A.

Hi Professor Limbert she is good professor and I would say sometime her class is boring and first time I took her friends bc I found myself be fun but sometime I think that make me Interesting from her and she is nice and respond email.

Hi Professor Limbert and she is so nice and sweet I would recommend to taking her again and for most people like to come to her class. I alway love come her every time you feel down or grade or anything related to you. She will listen to you.

She cares about her students and the subject. Sit up front, participate & it will boost your grade. 5 quizzes on the readings, 2 Midterms and 1 final exam directly from notes and readings. No trick questions. Easy A if you show up and pay attention. She is the sweetest!

lots of reading, if you can manage the reading you will do good

Professor Limbert's lectures are interesting. She does assign readings almost every class, however she assigns either only a few pages in the textbook or a short excerpt from an article. Lots of information on slides and long quizzes/exams, but as long as you study you will pass. She does not allow any electronics, only pen & paper.

AMAZING. i loved her class, although there was many readings they were nor boring at all, enjoyed being in the class and what she had to say tests & quizzes are definitely reasonable and if you pay attention you will get a good grade. overall genuinely enjoyed the class.

Professor Limbert is a very average professor. The class was very straightforward and some of the lectures were interesting, but most of them were painfully boring. There is a lot of reading in this class but other than that the quizzes and tests were not that difficult. I would recommend the class as it was not hard or tricky.

If you like lectures, this is the teacher for you. By no means am I saying she is bad, in fact, she very much cares about her lectures and is open to comments and questions during the lectures but it is a lot to listen to. Assigns reading assignments that u MUST read for quizzes and tests (LECTURE AND READING HEAVY). If you read and listen ur good.

Professor Limbert's lectures can be long, but engaging if you stay focused. The readings are dense, but unstuckstudy and quizzing yourself on the key points helped me prepare well for the exams. Overall, a challenging but rewarding course.
