He does not post notes. Everything is in class. The classes have a nice flow but everything he says is information you will need for the exam. So write everything down. His lectures are not boring because he gets straight to the point and teaches the topics that he finds important to the course.

The class was relatively easy, but it was really annoying and uninŧeresting. I can't stress how much I disliked this course even though it wasn't hard.

Super nice prof. But his style of teaching is like university lectures so there's a lot of note taking. I took him for U. S History and that's technically a pre uni course so he likes to prepare you for what's to come.

make sure you make it clear that you despise the habs because he talks more about how much he hates the habs then about western civ.

The teacher always gave the material and corrected copies late. I don't recommend.
