Reviews of professor Christopher Burns

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 1.0/5
Burns is one of the best professors I have ever had. He is overly caring and is always ready to help. He has office hours twice a week and is very responsive to emails. As long as you study the study guide you are set. He also has extra credit for the final and the midterm. Nothing bad to say. He is a legend and really cares about what he teaches.

Burns is one of the best history teachers Ive had. He is VERY knowledgeable on the subject. As far as workload, he assigns a 1-page paper weekly (takes 10 mins) and he has 4 quizzes midterm and final. However, he makes a study guide before each and if you study it, guaranteed A. Class is chill and you dont really need to take notes. WOULD RECCOMEND

Lectures kind of boring but he is available outside of class, gives extra credit, few essays , and straight-forward assignments.

Not gonna lie, do not understand where this 1.4 difficulty is coming from. Definitely are going to need pretty solid memorization skills for this class. The study guides cover everything but are 60 terms each so take these reviews with a grain of salt.

Professor Burns cares so much and clearly loves what he teaches. This being said, if you want to actually learn roman history, wrong class. He gives long boring lectures everyday. Slowest grader, but super thorough. His class is so boring, but if you cram for the quizzes and write the papers, you will get an A.

Definitely one of the easier classes to just show up and pass. There were 4 quizzes and a final, all of which he gave study guides for that had every piece of information you needed. Lectures were mainly him reading powerpoints but he was willing to go in depth about any topic if you asked. Gives very good feedback on the 2 long essays. Would take

He is very sweet and clearly loves what he teaches. There were 4 short quizzes, one midterm paper, a final, and a final paper . Everything on the study guide is on the quiz exactly, no need to go back to the notes and memorize anything else. The class is a lot of writing though -- there are weekly primary source reflections that are 1 pg long

TAKE HIM, He is super understanding and goes above and beyond to meet your needs. He emails back in less than an hour and gives extra credit. A quiz every other week but he's super lenient in grading. He is the nicest person ever and anyone who has taken him would agree. class is lowkey boring tho

This is the first time I have written a review because of how strongly I feel about this class. When I saw the reviews I thought the class would be great until I took the class and realized most of the reviews were written when the class was online!!! His grading on papers is absolutely terrible. This is the only core class I did not get an A in!
