Comment:
Professor Thibodeau is a hard, but fair grader, with lecture heavy courses. Class assessment is in the form of graded papers we complete after reading textbooks. He can be humorous at times, and is generally good at relating past events to modern times. He intersects his often alienating political opinions into lectures too often for my taste.

Comment:
Even though he sounds like the teach from Ferris Beuller's day off, he is very enthusiastic about the course. Definitely lecture heavy, and you have to take notes in class because he will not post them on his Moodle page ( however he will slow down or go back to a specific slide if asked.

Dr. Thibodeau is one of the best history professors here at Nazareth. He is lecture heavy but explains things in simple terms and relates ancient history to the modern world in relatable and relevant ways. he's also very funny and will crack jokes in class that are great. Very easy to do well if you attend class and pay attention.

A great professor. For papers, make sure to see him before turning it in. He is a tough grader, but if you read the books and see him, you will score well. His lectures are hilarious and he is a very nice professor.

Lectures wonderful or bad depending on the day, connects well with the reading sometimes of which you need to do to write the papers in which there is typically 3-5 that determine your grade. Need to learn what he wants to do well. If you don't get along with him, you won't with the department, he hired practically everyone, similar personalities.

Comment:
Dr. T talks like the teacher from Ferris Bueller's day off but if you actually pay attention he is clearly passionate, knowledgeable, and frankly hilarious sometimes. PAY ATTENTION! He does not post lectures or material so you have to either read or take good notes. Dr. T is a tough but fair grader, so use his study guides before an exam.

Thibodeau clearly knows his stuff and cares about his students. He gives great lectures, but you really need to pay attention to what he says. The only grades are quizzes and tests so you need to take really good notes and study hard if you want to do good. He does a good job making history interesting for everyone and is overall a great professor.

Thibodeau is a great professor. He actually made me want to learn history. The only thing that makes his course difficult is that there are such few grades. If you weren't well prepared for the quizzes, you would not do well because they only have 10 questions in them.

Very funny man and makes the material interesting. There is never homework but you will have to take very good notes in his class. I made flashcards with the notes I took and got a B in the class. If you enjoy roman history take it with him!

He knows what he is talking about and is very good at relaying information to us in a way we will understand. The Midterm and the Final are the only two tests but as long as you prepare, you should be fine. There are also two quizzes that he tells you about far in advance and as long as you look at your notes to study, they are not bad.

Extremely funny! His humor makes it fun to learn and he often connects history to modern day events to make it easier to understand. He is very knowledgable and seems to be passionate. The class is easy if you take lots of good notes and study thoroughly before quizzes and the midterm/final. Thibodeau is the best professor I've ever had.

Thibodeau is an amazing teacher that gives interesting and well-prepared presentations. This class is reading and writing intensive, made for students who want a challenge. Although you may not have to participate in class discussion, the classes you attend do affect your final grade. This course is great for students who love reading and writing.

Was worried about the class originally because it does not seem to be that exciting. He makes it well worth your time. You can see the passion he has for teaching, every time you enter the room. Highly recommend. He's so funny.

I adored this class! Thibodeau, pays attention to participation in and out of class. Take advantage of office hours. He only assigned three papers and a final. Read everything assigned and take notes that can be used in the papers. Attendance is important. Miss more than three classes and he will notice. Also, never show up late. Awesome Class!!

Wonderful lecturer, uses modern analogiescomparisons to make the material easier to understand. Very funny as well, likes to make jokes during class and has a personality that makes it easy to learn. Not many quizzes, midterm is fair and grades are appropriate to amount of work put in. Would highly recommend to anyone. Definitely a good professor.

One of the best lecturers I've had. Very funny and he does a good job at keeping students awake during 8am classes... He basically teaches through the use of modern analogies and this is extremely helpful. Very fair. No unit tests, only mid-term, final and 2-4 quizzes. Strongly recommend western civ. for a "P1".
