Dr. Helmer is amazing. He's a great guy and has a great sense of humor. I highly suggest anyone to take this class. It becomes a little routine, but if you're interested in actually LEARNING something in college, take a class with him!

Comment:
This teacher is unreasonable. I had a family emergency and had to miss the first due date of the paper, which was worth 80% of the grade, and he refused to let me turn it in 3 days later, and told me I could turn it in the 2nd time, for 20% of the points. His class was also so boring, I could not stand it.

Good teacher. easy tests if you look over the notes and read the chapters. The map quizes are very easy if you actually look up the places on a map. Overall good but sometimes the lectures would be a bit boring.

Best teacher I ever had! Helmer made things fun, interesting, and he added all those little tidbits that make learning a joy. Fair and unbiased in his teaching, as well as humble and nice personality. Coursework is very well balanced too, it enhances your learning experience. I took Geo of Asia from him, if you get the chance, take it!

Great class. The lectures were organized very well and his stories helped you retain the information. He's travelled to many places so he has lots of pictures of the regions you study. Great class and great professor.
