Reviews of professor Sven Kube

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Happy I took him. Always well prepared and professional in lectures. History through old sci-fi films to see how people in the past imagined the future was a nice touch. Surprisingly chill and very helpful in office hours. Expects solid work especially on papers but offers plenty of resources and is always available for input. Two thumbs up.

He was one of the professors that make me miss my old school sometimes. I took two courses with Sven and although one wasn't that easy (the second one was though) I enjoyed them both quite a bit. Evening film screenings in world history (optional, not part of the syllabus) are highly recommended - great group, cool discussions.

I liked taking him a lot. He gives several weeks for every essay and his feedback is clear and helpful. He usually replies to emails in a couple of hours and also offers facetiming if the questions are difficult. I have to say that he helped me write a lot better than I used to.

I took two AMH online with him and both were way more engaging than the other courses on Canvas and Zoom. He will hold you to the syllabus but workload is fair all in all, and he is an efficient professor-fast responder, fast grader, extra credit, evening Zoom if you work.

I did not like the idea of taking summer classes but ended up enjoying the six week course in European history. In meetings we looked at some interesting stuff like designs and films as sources. Most assignments were doable without much text book reading. It was all short and sweet.

The course was very structured and organized. Returning to college for me this was the first course where everything was completely online. I'm glad I didn't push it off and went through with it. The professor helped me get the hang of things. I'm grateful I got through with no problems and had a good time doing it.

AVOID! He makes you do those stupid perusall's that are completely ineffective and annoying. His assignments are extremely difficult and he gives you feedback that won't help you at all. Looked forward to taking this course but after taking it with this guy I had zero interest in the sixties whatsoever.

easy all things considered. 1 module is 3 weeks & i needed 3 hours max to do well, not counting essays. reading tests and discussions are doable even with not much time for reading the book. the essays are pretty down to earth too, i just don't get what the grader is saying half the time.

Best prof I had at FIU in my senior year. He's super accessible and helped me develop a project that I got really into. Supportive when I hit a rough patch mid-semester. Classes always lively because there's a lot of discussion of the readings and clips. Some can be hard to get but he will explain them in class and office hours if you ask.
