If you want an easy A and writing credit, take this class. U will deffinately pass the class if u read the material. GREAT TEST CURVES! U have to write 2 papers for the class based on a current event, but it's all ur opinion (even wrtng cdt). Teacher is super nice and funny!
Great teacher but you MUST read the material to pass his tests. Do the work and it's easy.
Awesome teacher. Super nice and funny. Class is easy if you do the work, which he makes easy to understand! Interesting subject too.
Scan the reading, and the tests are easy. Papers are graded by fulfillment of criteria as opposed to level of excellency. Easy class, and interesting enough. The text is also very straightforward and easy to understand, which is very helpful in a behavioral science class.
Overall the course is excellent even though there were more students than expected. He is a wonderful professor who actually devotes time to his students when asked. I found this whole experience (course and professor) intellectually stimulating. Helps that he is funny too.
I liked this class, it was very interesting and he is a good teacher. Very easy class. At the end of the semester, he has you bring in a cultural food related to your heritage, that you cook, for your final grade. Pretty nice:)
I love him. He is the perfect guy although he is not that young, but he is so interesting. Great teacher, The best teacher I love him. Great class by the way
Very pleasant. not affraid to ask any questions during class. His class is mostly all lecture. he basses everything out of the book. Tests are multiple choice. The only thing i got to tell you is to pay attention to the movies that he shows (its going to be on the test). THE END!!!
wayyy hot teacher...youll absolutely LOVE him! Funny, fun class, no strenuous work, just pay attention to lectures and listen to his jokes and youll pass with flying colors and lots of laughs =)
Disappointed that the hurricanes interrupted the classes; however, I marvel on just how unique Tromans is. He has made an impact in my life and will always know how much I appreciate him. Truly a wonder professor/person. He will always endear in my heart. Added note: funny, not old, and way hot--triple threat.
The class is easy as hell!!! He basically talks about something, and then others will start voicing their opinions and the next thing you know, you're having a class discussion about transvestives, or lesbians in 3rd world countries. He's basically laid back, I had no finals/mid terms and we just have multiple choice quizes every week.Take his Clas
This is the easiest I've ever taken. NO MID-TERM....NO HOMEWORK....NO FINAL....and he is way to HOT....His classes are really cool and he is an excellent person !!!!
Overall Good Teacher, interesting, dry kind of wit.
His class was fun and very easy. No homework, take-home exams, and the final project wasn't too bad. He's a pretty laid back guy that loves to crack jokes during his lectures. I highly recommend him.
Awesome Teacher! Class is easy if you study the word list. Will answer any question you have, just stop him while he is talking. Curves grades, but do not rely on the curve! Always try to get the highest grade and you can't fail. Study the word list and take good notes. Thanks Prof. Tromans for a great experience!
Excellent teacher! He loves his subject, he's funny, and will work with you if you don't understand something. He's traveled around and gives his experiences as examples. This teacher KNOWS what he's talking about. I would have loved to go on the Mexico trip with him, but it was too short notice. Short answer: TAKE THIS PROFESSOR!!!!!
He is so funny and by far the best teacher ever. He also love it when you ask question. and its a plus when you comment him on how hot he is!!!
Great class. He knows a lot about the subject and his lectures are interesting. Tests are not very hard if you paid attention. Easy written projects. I never took notes and didn't even buy the book and got a B
excellent teacher! explains everything so clear that there's no way you'll walk out of the classroom without understanding. gives fun examples for everything he says.
Nice funny guy..easy class..the finals involves eating...interesting material
Lalalala... Super professor
If you fail this class you are a serious momo. He gives study sheets, curves tests, drops lowest grade and really knows his stuff. You do have to study but you can't fail. Love him!
Definitely would recommend him. He's funny and the class is easy. He knows what he's talking about. There's quizzes but their easy because he curves them. There's a 7 page paper due at the end of the class and you have to present a powerpoint on the paper. But overall I enjoyed the class.
His class is very entertaining. He is a really funny guy, and he is super interesting. He really knows his stuff. Definetly take him!!!!!!
He's a great professor and good guy. Just do the readings, show up for class, do your paper and presentation and you'll pass with a good grade. No test for the final! What's more, he makes the subject fun for non-majors and majors, and is so smart. Not too bad on the eyes either. ;)
Tromans is a great professor, but I and another student were very disappointed when he didn't give ANY feedback on our final projects. I know for a fact that we both requested feedback and provided e-mail addresses. Extremely disappointing.
I would recommend him to everybody. He's a very nice guy and super hot! he makes class very pleasant and fun, you'll pass with an A if you pay attention to his stories :)
he rocks my world!!
he's an awesome teacher, if you're an anthropology major take him! take him even if you aren't one, i'm not. easy class test, pop quizzes but you sort of suspect when they are coming. just read and take notes and you'll do fine :)
hands down this man is an amazing teacher. his tests are very easy if you take notes during class and just read a little bit of the book. he curves every tests/quiz but it all depends on wat the highest grade in class was to see how many point u get. u dont hav to take the final if u dont want to and his papers r amazingly easy. take him! =]
Mark Tromans is easily the best professor at BC. He is funny, smart and his personality is so great it makes him pretty hot. ;) Whether or not you were originally interested in his class subject, you will be interested by the end. Always willing to answer questions. Stories are great. Definitely take his class.
Just had Tromans for Intro to Archaeology. AWESOME!!!!! Easy A. He works in the field...not just someone paid to teach a class. Most of the studying you gotta do on your own from the text. Tests are directly from the text. 3 tests, 2 papers and a 10 minute presentation. And he's funny as hell too. Great prof
Best teach at Bc hands down.
Best professor ever!! Just take good notes I never used the book and I got a B, best professor I ever had. I feel that I know more about people and cultures because of him.
This guy does not give a organized syllabus and doesnot have anything for study. During the quiz we have to guess the answers from the lecture we had heard and does not give extra cedit. He is not that good.
Tromans Rock, he is awsome. I took him for ANT2000 and hopefully I can take him for another course as well.if you dont understand the material, go after the class,trust me he will make sure you get it. may attention in the class,take good notes,write everything he writes on the board,study the definitions and you will be ok.
He is one of the professors you'd love to sit down and listen to. he never makes anthropology boring, it is super interesting after getting to understand anthropology for the very first time. take lots of notes, there are 4 exams, 4 pop quizzes, and 2 essays. you must study and attend class ALWAYS!
He is a great professor. Not boring at all...You don't have to use the textbook to pass as long as you go to class and take notes.
the best!you have a quiz before the exam and the questions on the quizzes are on the exam so he basicly gives you 10-13 answers. he gives a word bank and reviews every word (so you have to attend class)on it before the exam all you do is study it and remember the quiz answers.Easy A. People that failed didnt use his exam review and miss class
BEST PROFESSOR EVER!. HE KEEPS HIS CLASS INTERESTING, AND TELLS GOOD STORIES. TO PASS HIS QUIZ AND HIS EXAM ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS STUDY THE NOTES AND THE DEFINITIONS!
Prof Tromans is a great professor. His quizzes come from his notes AND the textbook. Make sure to read the textbook, because his notes can be unlcear. There are only 5 quizzes, but one 7 page paper due at the end & a powerpoint on it.
It has been a while since I've been in Professor Tromans' class but he is the reason I decided to change my major to Anthropology. Absolutely amazing professor who loves the topic and loves teaching it. You have to work but you will do well if you try.
Professor Tromans loves to teach, and it shows. I loved his class. If you want an A, you must read the book and attend class. It is a fun class. I LOVED HIM!!!! Highly recommended.
Awesome professor! took him for ANT2211, knows the material and keeps class interesting. You must read the books! we used the clicker questions (like a pop quiz at the beginning of every class) which are all based on the books. As long as you read, do your term paper, and presentation you will be fine. Easy class. Will take him again..
This is the best profesor I have ever taken (Although my major has nothing to do with science)! He's clear and really knows what he's teaching. He makes his class interesting and fun. The test are a little hard if you dont study. YOU BETTER TAKE HIM, you wont regret it!
Great interesting class.Take him if u can!!!!!!just the best.he knows everything about anthropology. Read textbooks and study notes for the test.The quizzes help for the test.He is truly the best.Take his class.!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Mark Tromans is one of the best professors I've ever had. He was super cool about everything, made all the lectures interesting and open for discussion and made sure we learned the important details. his multiple choice tests are hilarious. I had no interest on anthropology but I'm changing my major after his class
Very fun and interesting class honors, professor Tromans makes this subject easy to understand. We never use the book, only take what little notes he gives out. Definitely knows what he is talking about, he has so many cool stories about things he has done in his career. Sure, he goes off topic a bit but everyone is comfortable asking questions.
Prof. Tromans is an awesome teacher hands done. I came into ANT2000 to fulfill my need for a class with writing credit and end up learning interesting info and enjoying the spent with all of Prof. Tromans informative and sometimes comical lectures. His class is often a breeze if you participate and review notes from his lectures.
Great class. Professor Tromans is so knowledgeable its amazing. He is very helpful, he is super funny, and he makes sure you know every little detail possible! Love all the experience he has had and I am thankful he shared that we us, it's inpiring, and teaches us not to be so close minded! I learned way more than I thought I would!
Seriously his class is so easy. No homework all you have is one project. You do mini quizzes on the reading with clickers in class and they are pretty easy too. He is so nice and makes the class very interesting. Loved him! and your final is a feast everyone brings food=)
Avoid ANT2000 and this professor. This is a dull course. You might not be too bothered by it if you're a freshman with low expectations which allows you to be amused by the professor's dry humor but if you've taken other classes with decent teachers, you won't be much entertained by him. Hated every second of this class, utterly boring.
THE BEST!!
Super easy A. There is one project and a paper. There is no homework and he gives questions throughout his PowerPoint to check reading. The class is very fun. Take this class
This was a pretty good professor for a social science class. He really did his best to compress a whole lot of information into main concepts and definitions that were easy to understand. Attending his lectures is important because he lectures information that's on the test. It could get boring sometimes, but overall his lectures were pretty good.
Don't get me wrong, he's a very nice man and tries his best to help you and give you everything you need to pass. It's all up to you to pass or fail really, but the man is VERY boring. Dry sense of humor and very talkative and monotone. 4 tests and like 8 quizzes and 2 papers. All of which are easy if you stay awake and try to listen lol
I do NOT suggest taking this teacher if you are new to college. I had a hard time understanding his lectures. You pretty much have to read the book and work hard if you want a good grade.
Lol! "You had to read and work hard to get a good grade". Obviously the person who wrote that about working hard to get a good grade is a moron. Thanks for the laugh. You will like the class. He is a great guy.
Seriously one of the best professors I've ever had. He's extremely funny, in a dry sort of way, and also very helpful with providing the information we need to pass. He's a great guy, who will help you with any thing you need assistance with.
Honesty I thought this class was going to be boring. Surprisingly it was really interesting and I learnt a lot. Professor Tromans is friendly and makes the material fascinating. If you study your notes the class should be easy.
This professor was probably one of the hardest i had at Broward College. His notes suck and are not even on the test. If you do not read the textbook, you will fail. Please do not take him.. you will regret it.
Professor Troman is a nice guy and seems very wholesome. He goes out of his way to help you. I loved his stories and he knows alot about Anthropology. If you study the word list, take good notes, and read the textbook you will pass. If you need extra help, just ask him because he loves to talk :)
I got a D!! The tests are hard and the homework is annoying. This class is so boring! Believe me, stay away!
Love Mr. Tromans. He's so nice and always has great stories that help you understand the material. Take him you won't be disappointed.
The guy is great. I learned a lot. If you didn't pass, you didn't listen or take notes. Just read the summary of the chapter in the book, write down and listen (bc he's also snarky) to everything he says. Tests WILL be like your notes. This is a college course so YES you have to work hard. This class isn't for half-asser's.
He is very nice. Class was easy. Gives all the vocab needed for the test which is how you pass them. Drops lowest test. He's very funny and cool to talk to. I enjoyed his class
Best professor ever! Very inspirational, and funny. Would DEFINITELY take again.
AMAZING!!!! This professor was great. Took Anthropology as an elective, not expecting it would make an impact, but this professor was so inspirational! He loves what he does and you can feel that when he talks about it. He is also very funny! Would love to take him again. One of the best professors I have ever had.
I'm somewhere in the middle about Professor Tromans. He is a good professor but this course is boring. His notes are mediocre and don't really help. He's a very nice person and he's very understanding. He curves his tests but he also gives 5 pop quizzes. If you're interested in this course, take him. If not, I wouldn't recommend him.
He's an awesome and funny person, he knows what he's talking about, but the lectures are long and somewhat boring if you aren't genuinely interested in the topic. Good news is he kind of gets that people don't care so he jokes around a lot and doesn't take attendance.
Really chill and really cool professor. He doesn't give too much work, and he tries to keep his lectures interesting. As long as you keep up with your assignments, then you will be fine. Coming to lectures and paying attention is really all that you need to do in order to pass your quizzes/tests. I took him over the Summer, so the work was fair.
Mr. Troman is a good teacher and is really passionate about Anthropology, his class isnt hard at all and I found it interesting. He has "pop" quiz's, 2 papers, a midterm and a final.
It was unappealing that students from prior classes were hanging out in class laughing over inside jokes between Tromans & themselves, during lecture. He didn't put a lot of work into the slideshows, & the majority of the class was falling asleep/ playing on their phone. He shows old videos from PBS, & expects you to write papers on them each week.
Prof Tromans is the worst professor I've had, he would stand in front of class ramble then expect us all to receive A's on the course work. To be fair he doesn't usually teach Social Problems but also it isn't fair that we have to pay to teach ourselves.
He's really funny and a great teacher but be prepared for lectures every day and pop quizzes at least one every week. The tests are based off of the lectures but turns questions into scenarios. YOU MUST STUDY FOR TESTS!!!! No homework
study and you will get an A. USE the word list he gives you for the tests.
Great professor. Very knowledgeable and engaging. He has a sense of humor and tends to make jokes often. If you show up and take notes you will do great. I will be taking other courses from him in the future.
STAY AWAY HE MAKE THE TEST HARD FOR NO REASON talks all class about nothing show old videos for extra credit and there is always a pop quiz
Mark is one of those professors shows up to teach and gos home. He gives pop quizes so study often test are kinda hard but use CP and you good. Gives some extra credit which balances it out. he trys to make alot of jokes. homework is on 7 old videos
Took him for Sociology. You're golden if you show up, write some notes, pay attention and do all of your (fairly easy) online assignments. He's a little sarcastic, but I liked his humor. The only way you could fail this class is if you literally don't do any assignments. Attendance isn't even a huge priority.. I highly recommend. :-)
Tromans is a good professor, his class is pretty easy. He's funny and his lectures are interesting with good stories, if you like this subject you'll like his class. Minimal easy hw and tests are not difficult just review the notes and you'll be fine. I also took him for Sociology and that class was boring.
Amazing teacher. Is always available if you need any assistance or are having any troubles within the course. Extremely personable and HILARIOUS.
Mark was such a great professor! Fairly easy assignments, a few pop quizzes but they're not hard. I would definitely take again
Quirky guy but easy to talk to, loves having conversations about real world topics. Be ready for tests, they are not that hard if you read the book and follow the lectures
Awesome dude super funny I wish I had gotten an A but thats because I didnt study but show up every class and youll be fine.
Although he was a sweet and caring professor, he NEVER put grades online! The grades are already final- YET THEY ARENT ON D2L. The powerpoints online are just pictures and have a few sentences!!! DO NOT TAKE THIS PROFESSOR EVEN IF ITS THE LAST CHOICE! WAIT NEXT SEMESTER TO CHOOSE SOMEONE ESLE.
Tromans was an awesome professor. His sense of humor made the class fun. would take him again. Really enjoyed his class.
Very easy classes took him for anthropology and sociology. Make sure to review notes but hes very nice and doesn't grade hard at all.
Professor Troman is an awesome professor. His class is not hard at all. He is very personable and lenient with the assignments. i don't see how anyone can fail his class. i would most definitely recommend him to anyone. Easy A.
Professor Troman is an awesome professor. His class is not hard at all. He is very personable and lenient with the assignments. i don't see how anyone can fail his class. i would most definitely recommend him to anyone.
THE BEST PROFFESOR at BC Central Campus. I absolutely LOVED HIM. I had him for Anthropology and Sociology and he made it so much fun!! He always made jokes on class and he has such good sense of humor. His tests are very fair, they are based on his lectures, and you will definitely get an A or a B if you go to class
Hes amazing!!! Honestly his humor is so funny. My second year taking him and I swear I never get tired of him. RECOMMENDED !!! TAKE HIM !!! Just study for his tests and YOU WILL PASS.
An amzing teacher, I took him for sociology amazing the class id never boring all you have to do is study for the test and you will pass, best teahcer you will get.
professor tromans was pretty cool. he's a fair grader and he's easy to reach outside of class if you need him. he lectures through powerpoints which anyone can do, but he makes it somewhat interesting so you can learn and not fall asleep in class. sure, you could probably never show up to class and pass with a C, but he makes it easy to get an A.
Best professor ever and it shows! his classes fill up fast. Great sense of humor ,there to help anytime. He will work with anyone who is willing to put in the work. Fair amount of study for his test, if you come to class and take notes you will pass. His study guides are super helpful and he is always willing to help. I recommend any of his classes
Easiest class youll ever take in college! 6-8 week class... very simple, small assignments! 3 pop quizzes, online quizzes, papers. Amazing professor, very humorus! The actual class was dry however the professor is without a doubt HILARIOUS! Always kept us laughing. Easy class
This professor was very good! I don't have any complaints, the lectures/powerpoints were well constructed and he wasn't boring while teaching most of the time. On my part, I didn't pay attention much in class, which showed in my final letter grade. So I would say show up to class and definitely pay attention to pass!
Professor Tromans is HILARIOUS! His class was very easy, you can get a good grip on the material just from the lecture, I didnt open the book once. He cares about how you feel and is willing to help you. I wish I could take this class again. Hes amazing!
Really nice professor and a real simple class. You do the online work/quiz and you will pass the class. Class was a session 2 summer class so no final or midterm. Did have a few in class quizzes but nothing to bad. Lectures are simple and also online.
Professor Tromans was always so nice and helpful & his lectures were funny . I was always excited to go to his class. His assignments are also very easy. Just do your essays & quizzes on time and you'll pass.
I really enjoyed his class. The assignments were able to be done without the textbook, and the quizzes online & the 3 in class quizzes mirrored what is on the powerpoints. he goes more in depth during lectures about whats on the powerpoint, so paying attention during lectures is important!
I just finished my session 2 class with him HE'S AMAZING. Quizzes and assignments are online and quite easy. I didn't buy the textbook for the class and I did quite alright. He's caring and very passionate about Sociology. You'll love this class. Take it as a session 2 or 4; less course work. Oh and he doesn't take attendance. But still show up!
he is fine, not the best
Great great professor. Had him for SYG2000 also, he cares about all of his students education and future. He helps you as much as he possibly can. The reason I have a C is because of my own fault. His class is almost impossible to fail! Best most intelligent, funny, caring professor at Broward College
I loved this class, he was funny cool and easy grader, he gave a lot of free space to think however you would like.
I had Professor Tromans for 2 classes loved how much he genuinely cares for all his students and he will work with you and will answer any questions that you have. He's so funny and his lectures are in depth , as soon as class starts he get's straight to the point. He gives realistic examples so you can have a better picture. He is always on time
Great professor, although he just reads off the PowerPoint slides. Did his best to keep class entertaining by telling small stories or jokes that related to the subject at hand. During the CoVID-19 pandemic, we were sent home and unfortunately, Tromans was overloaded with graded papers and grades took a while. All we did were at-home quizzes. 9/10.
Exceptionally kind man. You can tell he cares for his students and treats his students fair and with respect. Has popped a few jokes here and there which made class more entertaining. The only thing you have to worry about are the quizzes that he gives, you can't miss class and you must study for them. The quizzes aren't hard as long as you study.
Great Professor, dedicated his PowerPoint with Narration to keep students learning during pandemic. He gives extra credits, do a total of 5 writing papers to help you replace your lowest exam scores. His class is very funny, he does not just read from PowerPoint but he also adds a kick to it for you to laugh. I will take his class in a heart beat!!
Professor Tromans was one of my favorite professors I've ever had. His lectures and powerpoints were easy to understand and fun to listen to. He always seemed to have a story to tell. I had him purely online. The quizzes were fairly simple if you paid attention in class and read through the chapters. 10/10 would take again.
Professor Tromans is sweet and really passionate about anthropology. If you also find this subject interesting I highly suggest this class. Lectures could get boring at times. He gives the topics that are going to be on the test beforehand so tests are manageable. There are 2 papers.
Class assignments are pretty straightforward, great classic to boost you GPA. Attendance isn't mandatory and no final or midterm, what more can you ask for? take him for an easy A. All you gotta do is submit the work.
Easy class. He gives very interesting lectures. I enjoyed taking his class.
Professor Tromans is truly an amazing professor. Once taking him you can totally tell how much he loves teaching. He gives you about 16 quizzes, 5 essays (You can pick any 5 videos he shows and has links provided on D2L), poll questions (You must be in class), and even some prerecorded lectures/PowerPoints that he provides on D2L. Recommend him!!
Prof Troman is an extremely fun professor and love to have fun with his students during lecture. You need to have a knack for his kind of humor. If you're there for thee grade and not interactive you wont enjoy the class. But if you are interested in the class you'll love to have him as your professor.
He was a great professor and would take it again. The only class where I wasn't bored with the lectures, he had a good sense of humor and really understood the subject he taught. Tests and quizzes were easy.
