Reviews of professor Virginia Mitchell

Rating: 3.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Professor Mitchell is very intelligent and passionate but she talks too fast and her lectures are hard to follow. There is no powerpoint for notes so you have to go to class to understand what is going on. No assignments except midterm, final, a couple open note quizzes, and one paper.

Very nice and means well, but all over the place and incoherent sometimes in lectures. Class is solely lectures in which she is going off for the entire period, rarely organized in her topics. If you're not planning for a career or are not passionate about the subject, I would not take this course

Dr. Mitchell is super passionate about history, so she may make some jokes that are kinda corny. All her lectures are on the board and you have to write down whatever she says. They can be boring and confusing, but she is open to meeting with you to clarify any info. Definitely have to read the books. No papers, but quizzes and exams.

Her lectures are very long and boring. It is hard to truly understand what the important details are because of all the writing she does on the board. However she is very reasonable if you make an effort to improve your grade. She will give extra credit and will let you do your midterm over. Probably would not take again but not the worst professor

Took her class over winter break. She is very passionate about history and it shows in her lectures. The lectures were pretty long but that was because we only had twelve days of class. Fair grader and as long as you pay attention you can get a really good grade in the class.

She only writes on the white board so if you don't pay attention you will not have anything to study for quizzes. There is a midterm and final but there are small quizzes about every other week. She is unorganized and it is difficult to follow her lectures. Class is incredibly boring, but there is no outside homework, besides studying for quizzes.

This professor does not teach clearly. She scribbles on the board and it is impossible to take notes. She talks fast and it's extremely boring to sit through. She took attendance every day. The only good thing was there was 2 exams, and a final, but I had to grind the day before with the textbook and ended up getting a 75.

Professor Mitchell was so kind. Her lectures were so quick and fast paced but she made sure you understood a lot. 4 quizzes throughout the semester, and one midterm and one final. She is so understanding of everything going on in peoples lives and I appreciate her empathy. She writes on the board so take noted and doesn't allow phones in class.
