Caring professor but makes that class way harder than it needs to be with a lot of unnecessary readings. Lectures are long and strict attendance policy

THE BEST PROFESSOR EVER!!! She's so sweet and actually cares about her students; lectures were useful and always on topic for the discussion posts. No quizzes or tests, just a discussion post due every week. 10/10 I love her.

Amazing and interesting lectures. The work is very manageable and the readings were usually intriguing. Would recommend to anyone looking for an intro history class. She is also very understanding and respectable to any accommodations.

Prof. Banerjee is very kind and I enjoyed her History 130 class. Her lectures are engaging and you can tell she is passionate about teaching. Very simple course. Weekly discussion posts of 400 words and final paper of 1500. Would recommend.

10/10 recommendation. Dr Mou knows delivers extremely intriguing lectures that talk about different angles of history. She uses really good paintings and other pieces of evidence to complement her teachings, presenting history without any bias. Assignments are fun and the grading criteria is clear. Pre-lecture readings are long but interesting.
