Reviews of professor Mika Endo

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
She lacks crucial skills in teaching. She makes the class very tight and kinda boring. 
You have to read tons of pages before class, then discuss about it in class. Her lectures are boring too since she just reads off of papers word by word. Also assigns timed essays with prompts not being given to students till the essay time. Shes not a history T

Professor Endo is really nice, but her teaching style doesn't work for me. The handwritten timed essays in class, the amount of reading you have to do, and the essays that are done online make this class feel more like an english course rather than a history one. She doesn't post her slides and also gave us 2 finals ;-; Good luck if you have her

She makes you read a few articles (10 ish pages each) before class and discuss it in class. Lecture extremely boring as she reads off her notes and hope students engage and participate. She does not post her lectures and expects you to take notes but there's not much on the slides. Overall, would recommend taking her, just be prepared

This is the class I'm least stressed about, she's so chill, and her assistant Spencer is a great too. Her area of expertise is Virginia History, so she'll tell you "I don't know, I'll have to look into that, thank you for mentioning that" if you ask her a specific question. If you take notes and put in some effort, you'll pass.

Her eyes are glued to her notes when giving lectures and then expects you to write a HANDWRITTEN essay DURING class within 20 minutes without notes. Prompt to essays aren't given ahead of time. Refuses to post any content online. Course itself is easy but she makes it difficult for no reason. She is a nice person runs the class poorly.
