A challenging professor. Wonderful lecturer. Tough grades, based on effort.

Work and study hard. Lots of reading and tough tests. Worth it in the end.

She's just HARD.

Tests are really hard, but do well on your papers and you'll be fine! :)

Very knowledgeable, but can dish it out, yet can not take it... BEWARE!!!

Hard but fair, makes you work for the grade

You will learn alot in her class. She is definitely worth taking for this class

She is hard,but fair. She is very knowlegeable and worth it at the end.

IYou must exert yourself if you really want a good grade. However, she is fair

Very funny, very pleasant prof. Take her and have no regrets.

Kind of hard if you don't pay attention. Learn alot!!

You learn, but most pay attention in order to get a decent grade. A lot of work

Explains well, but its a hard class, gotta study a lot to pass it.

Do the work and you'll be fine, but there's a lot of work

Very good and knowledgable person...Lots of work but so much reward

Great! She has the funniest stories. If ur mature and want 2 learn take her

Intelligent,funny,a little senial. Hard, gives xtra credit, good class.

excellent. I wish I had a professor like her for all my classes.

She knows her stuff, but gets a little boring sometimes. Nice lady though, cool stories. Hard class though.

VERY KNOWLEDGABLE AND EXTREMELY OPINIONATED. OFTEN RUDE TO STUDENTS. MAKE SURE TO STUDY EVERYTHING. I LEARNED A LOT THOUGH.

Way too much work. Probably ****. Too hard. Don't take her!

She's not that bad what pro gives you all of the notes typed for you if you do as she says read her notes you'll be fine and you will learn a thing or two Knows her stuff but can be arrogant and silly

This class was one of the best classes that I have ever taken in Pace. She is an excellent professor. If you like a little challenge, then this is definitely the class for you. This is a hard class but you have to put time and effort in it. I got an A

Very intelligent lady. Although there is a lot of reading to do, the class is fairly easy. The paper as well as museum projects help bring the grade up.

she's good........

She really knows her stuff, I learned tons and she really made me think about what I thought I knew about the third world and about history; needs to work on her people skills though

yo i u wanna learn or chill...take her...she mad crazy but she gives u da info u need...TAKE HER!!!good grader

She is the best. As long as you study and do the two papers, there is no way you will not get a good grade in her class. I am not saying her class is easy, but this is a college course right?

She's an excellent teacher and very knowledgeable, she's also very helpful and clear in her presentation, she tells very interesting stories about her experiences in Africa, TAKE HER!

Very interesting, very knowledgeable! Take her classes! Best not ask for help during class, instead visit her during office hours - she'll devote herself to helping you. Has strict set of student conduct rules for the class - best to follow the rules!

Prof. Gloster-Coates is a very good professor. At the beginning of the semester, you might feel a little bit intimidated, but hang in there. Do all your course work and I garantee you'll pass the class with a good grade. Fair "grader"

She a very good professor, she can be strict which will drive you crazy but she knows her stuff. She preps you for all test so there aren't any reason to fail her class. She's funny.

Probably has more knowledge in her area of expertise than any other professor at the school. Good to take if you want to continue your education.

She's extremely nice and devoted to teaching. Although, her gestures are what gives her a bad reputation among majors. I also took her for intro level class. She's not hard at all. I definitely agree that she's a fair grader.

Take it from a history miner. It takes some getting used to, but otherwise a great professor. Those looking for good core classes in history. I'd also recommend Profs. Izady, Roland, Swacker, Alberi, and Frank.

Uses the Rules List scare tactic to drive students away becuase she only wants to be left with those who are absolutely committed to learning. She knowledgeable and not a difficult grader at all. Would take a class with her again.

At first I was reluctant, but I'm glad I took this class for core credit. Fairly easy grader. I'm expecting an A.

SHe's an old an average old woman. She has her stories and supposidly had 8m jobs..but she is a great teacher. She sees effort. I got a d on quiz D on midterm and a c on final but I participated and did extracredits. and ended up with a B+ def. take her. Just show up to class and be willing to learn

Really nice, helpful. But a lot of work. She was the only B+ I had last semester (there goes my 4.0) but you will learn a lot and it is interesting.

can be annoying at times- complains about every little thing students do, but an overall easy grader. i love it when she complains and Quest just sits there smiling as always. haha

The class was interested; it had to do with Ancient-Medieval African History and the slave trades. It actually kept getting better as the semester progressed. Throughout the class she'll share her experiences about Africa. I think her courses are worth considering. The workload is managable. No need to purchase textbook.

Intelligent, and productive. Boring at times if you actually did the reading. No need to purchase the book easy grader.

Smarted and wisest woman on the planet.

Smartest and wisest woman on the planet.

I've taken 4 classes with her, next semester will make my 5th. The woman is an absolute genious and if you enjoy learning you should take her. I only hope one day I can have the same amount of knowledge she does. She's a very fair grader and a great woman! Take the time to speak to her outside of class, shes a lot more down to earth than in class

Google her.. she's an award winning professor with articles published internat'l mags. This woman is really something. Yes she has rules and yes she'll call you out if you sit there texting all class or walk in late all the time, but this is college-she respects responsible students.Ive taken her many times and always gotten an A, just do the work

I slept every class and got an A. Study all the notes she gives you the night before and you'll do fine.

So far, I feel the class is managable. Lots of studying, but quizzes should not be too hard. She manages to crack a few jokes here and there hahaha.

lots of work to do... tests are ok... not too hard, but def. not easy.

Overall a great course with her. Did not develop a lot of interest from her course. But, she was helpful and clear with the material/assignments. She is FAIR.

Dr. Gloster-Coates a very fair grader. Exams follow her handouts. Gives varied projects of which the term paper carries the most weight. She takes teaching very seriously and makes it worth your money. You will definitely walk away having learned something, especially from writing the term paper.

She is one of the hardest working proffessor in pace, i never had history class before, taking with her in summer was worth my money. no need to buy book, she gives easy hand notes. exams are kinda hard but if u stdy her notes you can easily get an A.

She is the best History prof. I ever had. She has a passion for teaching & she makes it interesting. There is work involved during the course. However, is all worthy. For sure you will learn something priceless writing the term paper that she assigns from the 1st day. Only take her if you are willing to work hard and learn.

She's a really great professor but there is definitely some hard work to be had in this class. You will need to study for the tests and the term paper is similar to other classes. You won't leave without learning something though.

class is super boring, but I usually just go on twitter on my computer until class is over. She really is a very nice and understanding person, but will call you out if she needs to. I wouldn't choose to take her again, but if I HAD to it wouldn't be the worst thing. The papers are annoying but doable.
