Comment:
If you work hard this is not a bad class. She does give a lot of homework, and her lectures cover much more information than is needed, but she taught history. I think this subject in general is disliked, so if you are lazy and you don't like history this is not for you. Just read the book and talk to her if you need help and you'll do fine.

Comment:
I would highly recommend not taking a course with this teacher. Her teaching years should have ended years ago. she can not see or hear the whole class. you answer one of her questions correctly during a lecture and she is positive you said something you did not say. she grades her students on a curve that makes no sense at all. Do not take her.

Comment:
Nice human being out of class, but very unclear and unorganized. Must grade papers in her sleep because half of the time people worked together, had similar answers, yet got way different scores. I decided to stick through the class, which I do not recommend. Drop the class sooner than later. Started off with 50 ended up with 20 ppl.

Comment:
She is the worst teacher I have ever had in my life. She is incompetent, severely unorganised, which in essence makes this class confusing. She grades home works on a really bizarre manner, in which you know not how to improve. Do everything to avoid her, if you get her switch out as soon as you can.

Comment:
She's unorganized, her lectures are pretty useless, and her homework questions are just as unclear as her instruction. You can get through this class with a good grade as long as you do the homework, but she really makes history into torture and it's usually my favorite subject.

Comment:
I felt that her class was interesting, but young. Had there been an older group the discussions may have been more interesting. I feel like as long as you do your hw you will get a good grade. She grades on a curve. Test are easy she does them on a projector and has you write the answers down and turn them in. Its easy.

Comment:
I have taken Heinzmann for two semesters and I plan on taking another one of her classes. She's kinda scatter-brained but regardless, this actually makes her class easier. As long as you do the HW as assigned and show up most of the time and act like you are somewhat interested, it'd be really hard to fail her class.

Comment:
She grades every student completely fair and treats everyone the same. Its impossible to fail if you show up to class and turn in work with the grading system she uses. Really I have found the only students that complain are the lazy ones that forget this is college and yes work is required to do good in this class. Tori

Comment:
I am suprised at the reviews that I saw with Heinzmann. She grades very fairly and she covers content well. I have noticed that people that hardly show up and never do assignments are doing poorly as expected. You need to come to class pretty regular and her homework is a lot but she is a very good teacher! She grades everyone fairly. Amanda

Bad lectures, hardest quiz questions on the planet, expects you to major in history, some students even called her out on wrong information regarding WW2, stupid. Be prepared for this class its no joke

The class was poorly organized and lacked structure. Assignments changed constantly. She wrote confusing questions, would spend 30 minuets taking roll and getting off subject. The class had a high attrition rate, we started with over 30 students and ended with less than ten.

Comment:
I'm only a good month into her class, but I have found that regardless of how much effort I put into it, its nearly impossible to understand her expectations. I feel like I do not have the tools to be successful and I find myself extremely stressed. READ THE BOOK. And if you have her, take the class when you don't have a heavy work load otherwise

Comment:
Her class is graded on a slant/curve. Only about 5 people got A's and 5 people got B's, and about 20 C's. To receive full credit on homework except to spend an average of 4 hours on the homework. YOUR grade is based on how many people do better than you, I got a mid B cause there were students who got a higher A then me

Gives tons of homework. Her classes are very slow and she does not speak loud. I would not take her class unless you love history and homework.

She is super sweet and as long as you actually do the work you will get an A in the class. Midterms and finals were the easiest I have ever had. She will give lists of words that you will use for a fill in the blanks and there are a few essay questions

Shes a nice lady but her teaching is not that thorough. Its mostly just an outline, its never notes. The book is very confusing and not helpful, i perfer using the internet. The mini quizes are confuising and they trick you and she goes way to fast through them. i have showed up to every class and i still feel like i dont understand anything!

Most confusing teacher ever...She does not explain requirements for assignments at all and gives 20-25 hours of homework a week. She does not even lecture about things that are going to be on the test and some classes she talks the whole time about how effective her teaching is but no one tells her she is awful..
