Reviews of professor Martin Catino

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
By far the most difficult grader that I experienced in the Masters program. He would take points away for not including items that were never listed as required in the syllabus. An example dinging discussion board posts for not having an intro and closing paragraph even though the syllabus only mentions meeting a minimum word count. Very arrogant.

I was marked down for not talking about religion in my response which is clearly against school code. He does not follow his grading criteria and will request additional information from what his instructions call for. He is very knowledgeable and I learned a lot but I wanted to drop out of this university because of him.

Not very friendly. Does not give good feedback so you can correct your mistakes.

Dr. Catino is the real deal history professor. He wants his students to synthesize material and dig deep. I wish I could take this class again and learn even more. He really treats his students with respect. I especially appreciated that the quizzes had zero multiple choice questions and instead were straight essays.

He comes across as a know-it-all professor. Not very understanding when it comes to issues. Worse professor at Liberty University. I would drop a class before ever taking a class with Catino again. I would suggest if you see his name as your professor change classes immediately.

In the masters program he is the best of the best. He pushes students to do better and earn the grade you receive. I learned so much underneath him. I would highly recommend him for WWI WWII
