Reviews of professor Angela Zombek

Rating: 2.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Currently in her 106 class. She needs a hamster wheel to run on or something, seriously though. The woman is overly excited about history. She talks about her cats constantly, like why? no one cares. Also, her exams are 5 questions and an essay. No multiple choice so if you miss one, you are screwed.

Class time: listen to her lecture, she made them understandable and interesting. You can tell she is very into her job and wants each student to understand. The Grades: homework was inquisitives (very easy), the midterm and final which also were not bad (written exams, she gave you a specific study guide), and 2 primary source papers (not bad).

Love her! She is so engaging and understanding. Took her for 290, a HST major requirement, so there was a lot of discussion. She coached us on how to write a research paper and I learned a lot.

Literally the sweetest woman in the world! I am not interested in US history personally but she made me enjoy learning it on the purpose that I was excited to see her. I never missed a class because I wanted to listen to her lecture. She talked about her cats a lot to and always responded to emails quickly!

Honestly its an interesting class, shes a really good teacher, I learned so much. Strongly advise you to take notes as she talks not really on her power points. The documentaries helped so much!

Professor Zombek is a great teacher. You have to go to class but she lectures and shows videos the whole time. Her TA grades the two papers assigned pretty strictly, but other than that there's online inquizitive homework that only takes 30 minutes each week. She grades the midterm and final leniently, just study like crazy a few days before.

Extremely engaging and energetic. Truly loves what she teaches. Lectures are very info-heavy and can't be found online. Sometimes they feel long, but she made them as fun as possible by adding videos and other media. She is a tough and often contradicting grader. Papers and written exams can be difficult, but if you take your time, its ok

She was very knowledgeable on the subject but formed the two tests and the two papers like that of a high school AP class. Vigorous writing and memorization of facts are necessary. Attendance can severely drop your grade. Your main grades are only the two exams and papers, and they're graded harshly. I do not recommend taking her course.

Dr. Zombek may be the best professor I have had in any class. I don't really find history all that enjoying but she makes the class fun and engaging. She grades very fair and wants to see you improve as the course goes on. Great professor, I would take her for every history class if I could.
