Reviews of professor Eric De Sena

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
This professor won't explain the assignments that well. He also favors long lectures based mostly on history rather than art history. Doesn't explain what to expect on quizzes and tests as well as isn't clear on what is expected in his class.

I've taken De Sena's courses twice and he is by far one of the most caring professors I've had. I don't understand why he has a low rating but the workload is light. His class mostly consists of lectures and he gives about 3 exams and a couple of quizzes throughout the semester. The exams are easy as they are mainly based on observations and notes.

This professor used to have online tests due to covid, now he switched back to in person tests, and the material is heavy, get ready to memorize everything even though he went over it for 3 seconds.

I dont think there is any better History prof out there! He is extremely empathetic. Other professors should use him as an example for what a professor should truly be like. He was amazing, and if I needed another class and he was teaching it, I would take it in a heartbeat. Thank you for being so caring and understanding during these tough times!!

Agreeing with one review, A LOT of professors can learn from him. He's very nice, caring, and overall just an AMAZING professor. He is the best professor I've ever had, despite the lectures being 3 hours, I would actually look forward to them because they were very interesting, Pay attention, participate, don't miss class, and study the slides.

Professor De Sena is one of the best professors I have ever had. He is so intelligent, interesting and genuinely just a nice person. The class isn't difficult and the tests are easy as long as you take notes and pay attention in class. Definitely take him if you have a chance!
