Excellent historian! Although we burdened her to death with questions, she kept up with us and made sure we understood something-so much so that we didn't quite cover all we were supposed to. So what, what I have is a very well developed sense of what we did cover instead of some shoddy run through of everything just to say we had.Take her classes!

Dr. Lopez is my FAVORITE professor. I suck at history and she made me absolutely love it. The way she teaches is so helpful ( lecture outlines and you fill them in). I didn't think the class was hard at all as long as you answered the questions in outline (similar to exam questions!) and look at the review. Engages students and is very fun!

Best. History. Professor. Ever. I never truly learned a thing about history and now I can talk for days about history. Study outlines and truly understand them! Take more time than just looking at the questions if you want an A! Put all the info you know into the essay... She makes the class a story, the essay is a time to retell that story!!

Dr. Lopez took a subject I was already passionate about, Russian History, and made it come alive. A lot of writing on exams, be prepared to state facts complete with dates, names and specifics, She is big on the specifics. Pay attention to her exam reviews, and take a lot of notes. She grades hard, but fair. This class was a lot of fun!

As someone who hates history, I loved this course. She provides outlines for her lectures so as long as you show up to class and write side notes, you should get easy A's on the tests and quizzes. She does give unexpected assignments but they're easy and manageable. She's really funny and makes the lectures understandable for everyone.

As somebody who is not good at history, this class is great. There is not much work, and classes are mostly just lectures. Just show up to class, pay attention, and do the study guides. Exams were worth 75% of your grade, but the exams are not that difficult if you do the study guides. It's an easy pass and can be an easy A if you work for it.

She is a very good teacher; she explains the material well. I am someone who is not fond of history class, but she made the class fun and was easy for me to understand what we were talking about. She provides outlines which is very helpful and exam reviews. I would honestly take her again.

Currently taking her for HIS 1305 and I already enrolled for her HIS 1306. She is really funny, if you pay attention in lectures it is impossible for you to fail. Every lecture has clear outlines that you can download and print out prior to class. You will be doing a good bit of writing but she is extremely helpful and always available. Love her!

bro she a good professor but she did way to much. she assigned exams as well as essays it was crazy. honestly I will not recommend unless you are fine with doing a lot of work. the exams were a high percentage of your grade so if u did bad u have a high chance that u fail. very lecture heavy if u don't go to class u will be so lost on the exams.

So many papers

10/10 recommend. She provides outlines for her lectures; you can print them before class. Super helpful, print them out! provides study guides for exams too. I enjoyed her class even though history is not my favorite. I would retake her if I could. TAKE HER YOU WON'T REGRET IT!

Professor Lopez has been one of the best professors I have taken, her way of teaching is out of this world by making the lectures sound interesting, enjoyable, and fun to learn about. So, for those students who plan to take Professor Lopez, I hope you all enjoy the class and prepare to study for 3 exams and the final.

Professor Lopez is a great lecturer - her clear PowerPoints and outlines make the material very accessible. While the workload is manageable, attendance is key to doing well. Resources like unstuck AI, along with the provided study guides, can make exam prep a breeze.

Worst Professor! Determined to fail you! You don't know where you stand during the semester or what you need to improve on because she posts the grade literally like last month of the semester! I am some who has a learning disability so obviously my essays won't be super perfect. She fails most of my assignments!! Be prepared for massive work load.

I also have a learning disability and she did not take that accounted for when I wrote my papers. I also took another history class outside of this one and had no issues with AI detection with my other teacher but claimed I used AI for the whole paper. She started to grade 2 weeks before grades were due as if that was enough time to fix anything.

Professor Lopez's class is lecture-heavy, but she provides detailed outlines for every lecture on Canvas in case you miss class. Attendance is important—miss 4 and your grade drops a letter. I liked how she lectures like she's telling a story. Be prepared for essays—there are 3 with exams and one for the signature assignment.

Awesome professor took her for History 1305 and 1306. Her lectures are amazing and funny she gives an outline for each new lesson. Outlines help you for her test and there are a few essays but they are easy.

Amazing lectures, really engaging and funny. I was able to learn the material by just attending class and paying attention. Lots of extra credit opportunities. The lecture outlines she provides are extremely helpful for keeping up, but attendance is graded.
